They live in a coastal town for the most part, but they do have to travel a ways down the coast to get to a non-gravel and shipping lane beachead to enjoy the ocean.

Thembi would LOVE to go somewhere for a short holiday, but she stays at home to run her cafe since the season brings more business than usual, and she gets pretty overwhelmed by the influx of people a lot of the time, which is where she'll get Zei to help out in running the cafe.

Zei, when not helping the cafe, will head further inland to visit the neighbouring city (the one that was more solarpunk and renewable power based) to enjoy the more comfortable microclimate in the city. It's park trees are his favourite to nap in during the hottest days

I do have a few characters that tend to make more of the summer season! Let's talk about 10 of 'em.

Pez often gets most of his work in the summer, going to fairgrounds to do face painting and activities for the kiddos. It's his favorite line of work, even though it's short lived. He's very busy as well since that's a time when cases for the Child Protection Agency ramp up.

Aurcer and his tribe have huge festivals for every season, and summer is no exception. A 48 hour dance festival with a bonfire, huge feasts, and wrestling. He tends to oversee more than participate, but he enjoys a good brawl.

Tiberius takes advantage of the warmer weather to get out earlier and practice his martial arts. He likes to meditate at sunrise if possible, clearing his mind before stretching his body.

Nacres, being a cloud associated with good weather, always tends to go wherever it's spring or summer. Cold weather would slow him down and cause him to be more tired. He enjoys sky surfing when it's nice and hot, since he can't overheat.

Lucius, like most college students, goes back home to spend the summer with his parents. They'll usually go camping a few times during the hot months. He also tries to check out local dance shows to study their choreography for his next semester.

Oriol, as a sort of matador, tends to be busiest in the summer. Sapient 'bullfighting' is just more play wrestling with bull anthros, one trying to blind the other with their cape so they can tackle them.

Ludovic has a sort of 'summer house' in Mercia when the weather gets too hot in mainland Eurish. He doesn't like it, though, because it's just a cabin compared to his manor. He only goes there because it's the only retreat he doesn't have to pay for.

Ecko always feels cold so the summer isn't much different to him from the winter, so he gets a lot of odd looks for wearing his bulky jacket. He likes to hit the lakes and fish, since it's quiet.

Ignatius (Timeline 3) will go out even in the most blistering, insufferable heat and just explore. The park, museums, random abandoned areas... he's capable of tolerating heat up to 200F (93 C) and literal boiling temps only cause mild discomfort, so... yeah. Summer is nothing to him.

Then last, there's Xenon (and technically Ossa and Nox). Summer is ideal biking weather, so that's usually when you'll see the three of them zooming around cross-country on their motorcycles/Extreme Gear, with Xenon doing more of the show-offy stuff.

Summer is Chrysante's favorite time of year. With everyone out and about, he's constantly mingling with people in the hopes of acquiring some interesting information. Balancing the travel with a personal desire to flaunt himself, if he's visiting tourist traps, he's at the gym.

Summertime means that the kids are out of school and the Sweet Soiree is at its busiest. The Sweet Tweets start looking to Amelia to chaperone their troop duties, and she's more than happy to lend a hand.

The fairs are out in full force, and Dezra takes full advantage of the festivities. She and the twins move from fair to fair, enjoying every sugary thing on the menu.

Sakura isn't particularly fond of summer given the amount of new people around, but she is outside a bit more often to enjoy the fruits of her hard labor. Picnics are her favorite activity.

Sevira takes this time to swap out her wardrobe. Lots of shopping to capitalize on those summer sales. She wants to look her best while lounging on the beach, after all. Can't afford to look out of season.

Cheeks is usually taking part in the Gold Coast Games. Summer is when all of the hard work she put in over the winter is on display for the world to see in Seaside Hill's annual decathlon.

Syndra prefers to spend more time outdoors too. Camping, hiking, and enjoying the outdoors. She's fond of not having to pay rent for a while, too.
