She hopped up to sit on the balcony's wide railing, blowing aside a lock of silvery hair that swung forward with the motion, one hand spread on the railing to support herself while the other held a solo cup she'd procured from below. Nothing crazy, just some ice water to help fend off the heat, it was a still a fair bit early for her for anything else. "Thanks for the rescue, [i]pretty[/i] sure I was starting to melt," Nova grinned, taking a sip of water before placing the cup down next to her. Indicating the street behind her with the now free hand, she asked, "Any idea when the parade passes through here? Not that it's gonna be hard to miss or anything."[/color] [@Silvan Haven][@Norik]
