Relaxation

Relaxation was a wonderful little boat, it sailed from one island to the next with the couple having almost no input. Daedalus had really taken to fishing as it did wonders for his mental health, in the meantime Andromeda had gotten into the hobby of reading.

Today was the same as any other day on their trip, the only difference was the location. Relaxation, the boat, was anchored just beside the beach at the edge of a half built dock. In the past Daedalus would have forced himself to immediately finish it but now he decided to relax his muscles a bit before getting back to work.

They had decided to stay on this small tropical island for a couple weeks before they continued. This was decided because the island had some very nice spots that Daedalus felt where just right to build in. He had also had a bit of an itch to build something as he wasn't used to going even a week without making something.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

By the end of the first day on, the newly named, Rucile island chain, Daedalus had managed to build a small house to stay in at the beach. Andromeda on the other hand had been exploring the local herbs and plants to see if there was anything new.

With the sun slowly setting over the small island Andromeda leaned her head on Daedalus shoulder and said "We should do this more often, the sunset in the boat is nice but it feels more grounded and fantastical on land."

Daedalus nodded lightly, agreeing before saying "We have all of the time in the world, and an entire world filled with islands to explore, I think we can spend a couple extra days every now and again just to watch the sunset."

Andromeda smiled at this and closed her eyes, letting the fading sunlight warm her face as it disappeared from the horizon. But as she faced the sunset Daedalus watched her face as she smiled beautifully, not that she would know.

Daedalus cooked dinner that night as Andromeda had an idea for something she could write. Though she thought she had kept the book a secret she couldn't stop talking in her sleep. She was very excited.

For dinner that night Daedalus caught a large tuna as well as a few smaller fish to go on the side. As they had agreed in the past Daedalus went into the forest and collected some of the herbs from the island before heading back. They had agreed to only use the ingredients from the islands they where on unless they didn't feel like it.

Thus Daedalus created a wonderfully sweet sauce with lighter herbs to add to the overall taste of the fish. Daedalus was unfortunate enough to have not been able to get any vegetables so he had had to go without for this meal.

Eventually the two finished their food and cuddled up inside the small shack on the beach where they quickly fell asleep.
