Beth bobbed to the rhythm of the waves. It hadn't been long since Ren had been found and the forgotten was flying about.

It was clear from her texting that the Witch was happy and excited.

It took a number of minutes before Beth received an answer back... Likely Alex was doing... Whatever it was he liked doing these days. Maybe he had found a job? Maybe he was doing something important? Who could really say, the thief was always busy that way.
---------------------------
GG: Hm? Beth? What's up? What are you contacting me for?
GG: Who did you find? Please don't ask me to guess, I'm a bit exhausted after a long day at work and I was looking forward to resting a bit before doing much else.
----------------------------
So he DID get a new job!

Ren looked on in the distance, keeping an arm on Nora's shoulder as she tried to run to all the carnival games at the pier. "...Does she normally use her powers to fly over water?" Ren asked, honestly a bit confused.
Nora had her arms folded. "Not usually... to my knowledge. I don't follow her everywhere, Ren."

Beth sighed as she landed. "Just excited, Nora," she offered.
---
DM: Well. A second member of Team JNPR is with me.
DM: We found Ren. And glad to hear you found a job by the way.
DM: Sorry for pestering you.
DM: At Pelican Boardwalk if you want to meet up.
-
Way to be a mood killer, Aaron... Alex... what ever you're going by this week... Beth thought after sending the message.
She gave a soft smile to the pair. "You two know you can ask about me right?" She offered to them.

GG: Huh... You don't say~. Well glad to hear you found him.
GG: Also, I apologize for the slight tude, The work I've started taking up recently isn't exactly easy.
GG: Anyways, I think meeting up at Pelican Bay Boardwalk could be fun. Just give meeee..... About two hours to take a quick nap and then I'll get Yang and a few of the others to meet you down there. We could use a day off after all the Aflutterfly insanity.
GG: See you then!
====gantzGun [GG] has ceased pestering dreamingMasks[DM]====
Well, at least he seemed enthusiastic about a meeting.

Nora looked over. "So, what's the verdict?" she asked, kicking her feet at the dock, since everything else was off limits.

Beth retracted the headset. "Well we have 2 hours before Alex joins us. I think he's going to be bringing some friends with him," she answered. "You two up for some boardwalk treats in the meantime? Or some games while we wait?"

2 hours passed in very little time at all for the bunch as they awaited the arrival of their friends...
It had been another fairly standard day on Dimensional Island all things considered... Though really normalcy was a sort of thing one only found on Dimensional Island through the acceptance of certain odd things that happened every now and then, to a point where even weirdness could look simplistic and the standard definition of normalcy can seem either strange or super normal... Which also qualified as strange...
It was with this in mind that Yang, Ruby and the other girls in team RWBY, along with Lizzie, Erin and Ryan had grown somewhat used to, on most days, find Alex had not only adopted a schedule of going to bed and rising early, but also disappearing for a number of hours on end. It was not hard to assume that he had a new job somewhere, but the exact 'where he worked' and 'WHEN he found this job' would often come up in casual conversation...
Still whatever the case he would always show up at 1 PM on the dot take a brief 2 hour nap on the couch, then spend the rest of the day with his friends just doing whatever came to mind, so none could really complain.
--------------------------------
So on the day that Alex received that call from Beth, he had decided, thanks in part to his job, that he had finally earned enough money to make a day on the town reasonable. A void portal opened on Pelican Bay Boardwalk and allowed a large number of new arrivals to touch down with relative ease.
"And here we are! Feast your eyes everyone, but don't try to take it in all at once~." Alex chuckled as he was followed through by a number of others from the Apartment Complex. "There's plenty to do here in Pelican Bay, just remember to mind the clowns, mimes and the Barbershop Quartets. They are CREEPY sons of bitches and I'm not one hundred percent convinced a number of them are human."
Lizzie took one look at one of the clowns and shuddered. "You have good instincts..........."

"Games!" Nora cheered. Ren looked at her, before sighing.
"I could use some unwinding right now."
--
With the passing of two hours, Ren was walking along carrying a massive collection of plush toys that Nora had won, Nora herself walking along with a big panda plush. "I hope you take better care of that one," the stoic teen offered, Nora twirling around with the big doll in question.
"Hey, Ruby's dog found the last one," she offered. "I wasn't going to kick him off of it!"
"...Did Zwei make it to the island?" Ren asked. Nora looked ready to respond, but froze.
"Ummm... Oh look! our friends are here!"

Beth was looking through a book she had obtained earlier in the day. "Not yet to my knowledge. And Ren I can carry those if you want given- Hi Alex!" she called to her paradox space other brother- not that she didn't have enough of those already.
"NORA!" Ruby called before glomping the orange hammer wielder while Weiss and Blake walked up behind them. Each of the three looked a lot older than what Ren probably remembered.
One of Blake's bow- wait those were cat ears started to twitch as Yang waved to the group.

Seeing the group getting along now, Alex couldn't help but let out a small chuckle. It was always nice to see the neighborly atmosphere that always followed with Team RWBY and their old school chums. Of course seeing his inter-dimen-ecto-sis was enough to perk up his mood as well. "It's good to see everyone again." He then took notice of Ren. "So you're the new arrival eh? Nice to meet you, the name's Alex. I'm Beth's Ecto-bro."
Lizzie stretched a bit. "I'm really looking forward to having some fun here myself. You have no idea how long it's been since I last just relaxed and spoiled myself like this, coming to an amusement park just to have a ball~."

Ren blinked, taken aback by so many appearing at once. Even Team RWBY, whom he thought would be timeless, ended up looking strange and new to him. He really was in a place disjointed from time...
"Dibs on the target games," Nora cheered, pumping her fists.
The sound of an electric guitar hummed through the air...

Yang gave a smile. "THANK OUM! SOME ONE LOOKS FAMILIAR!!" she chorused before hugging the smaller guy. "You're shorter than I thought you would be but heck it's welcome."
"Yang. No harming Ren. He just got here," Beth offered as Ruby and Weiss followed Nora. "May they not break everything..."
Blake walked over as her ears twitched as she heard the riffs. "Hey Ren."

Alex just stood back as this all went down, after all, this was Team RWBY reconnecting with one of their old friends, smiling all the while. Lizzie meanwhile chuckled at the sight, watching as Ren was zigzagged between everyone. Briefly she wondered if this Ren was from a different timeline as the others since he didn't appear as old as them.... It seemed to make sense given how convoluted the timeline often could be.

Sitting at a stand nearby, a young, stitched woman with large hands strummed on an equally huge guitar, the beast of an instrument somehow making sounds like an electrical one, despite not being electric at all. A small crowd surrounded her, clapping along as she strummed, feet kicking as Ren took notice.
"I wasn't aware musicians hang out here," he offered. Nora raised a brow.
"What musicians? It's normally just fair go-wowza! Who's THAT?!"
Breaking from the group, Nora hopped toward the strumming woman, said gal smiling. What looked like her younger sister with headphones was playing with her, the gal banging on a tambourine as she kept the beat.
