   Having a chance to explore the unfamiliar territory was essential. So far the place was certainly larger than back home, but it was still quaint. Not many people appeared to reside here, and Selena figured that perhaps less people meant less talking.

For some reason, the prospect of actually speaking to the inhabitants of this island was odd and perhaps made her anxious. She didn't know how quickly she'd lose her temper if someone dare pick at her for simply being different. Coming from a different island, naturally there were cultural differences. But...so far so good.

Since Maya had returned she quickly got set in her usual routines and it was difficult for her to match her schedule up with everyone else's, so she hadn't really had the time to catch up with everyone.

In Chase's case it was completely understandable, he was now married and had kids. Everyone was moving on with their lives and it made Maya feel even lonelier.

Dressed up rather nicely in a suit and bow tie, Gill had waited out in the church courtyard for his partner to show up. He knew he wouldn't be waiting long, since Chase was a cordial person. Even if he was delayed, it was probably only because of his children or something. Gill didn't mind waiting for that if that was the case. He was mostly keeping an eye on the rest of the dance goers anyways, to make sure everything was running smoothly; it didn't matter if he was there to have fun or not, he still had to do his job. He secretly hoped the hors d'oeuvres were to the chef's liking; he'd made them himself.

Hiro waited patiently at his desk for the next patients to arrive.  Being at a clinic without his mentor there to help him had been odd at first - it was a bit lonely sometimes, but he was starting to get the hang of working alone.  He didn't regret his decision to come to Harmonica Town at all, though; it was a good learning experience for him, and he was looking forward to helping care for the adorable new additions to Chase and Muffy's family.

What a lovely summer's day, and in such a quaint little town, too! Ponta was thrilled at his find. He could not quite remember just how it is he got there, he only remembered falling asleep in an open crate near a dock and woke up here not long later! It would be just his luck to finally get to go on a boat but sleep through the whole trip... Oh well, at least he woke up in such a nice place! It could be much worse, that was for sure.

The fact that he found a fishery certainly made it difficult for him to stay disappointed in his surprise boat-ride. Maybe they had fish he had not seen before...? Perhaps he could borrow some... he had gathered some human currencies in his travel, but there were so many different kinds, what if he left the wrong kind in exchange? Maybe it would be best not to borrow any fish... Besides, if they were caught locally, then he could certainly catch his own!

The tanuki found himself standing in front of the entrance to the fishery, just staring up at the sign with a wistful look on his fluffy features. He noticed a sort of peach-haired man approach the fishery. Ponta only paid him a brief glance since people could not normally see him anyway - and staring would be rude - but when the man looked down at him... wait, the man looked down at him?! Ponta squeaked and nearly jumped back.

It was such nice weather outside, Gill decided to go for a walk. It wasn't uncommon for the mayor-to-be; he liked taking frequent walks to check up on the town. Sometimes, he just liked to enjoy its atmosphere. Today was one of those days. He sported his typical sweater vest and golfing shorts that he typically wore when he was out and about.

Gill had to go to the tailor shop to pick out a suit for his father. Winter was over, and he needed some nice spring colors in his suit selection. He did have his ones from last year, but there's no reason he can't have new suits. It wasn't like he was using it as an excuse to go to the tailor shop. No, that's absurd.
