we used to play outside when we were young & full of life & full of love
Salty kisses while bobbing in wine-tinted water are not how you envisioned the evening going, but you're a master of working with the unexpected. In addition to being capable of carrying everything you could ever need (and many, many things you don't), your bag is useful for its tendency to float, a feature brought about by your shoving it full of inflated bladders at one point or other. See? Always prepared, that's you.
"We've a long way t'go before th'end, taku kairangi." You punctuate this with a kiss on her nose, detangling from her grasp and placing the bag between you and passing back the wine. "Here, hold ont'a this while I find- fuck, I got too much shit in here. Lemme see..." There's a bit more cursing and a lot of sputtering as you dig through the bag, trying valiantly to keep too much water from getting inside. At last you awkwardly pull out a rolled-up rug, balancing it haphazardly across your shoulders and sealing up the bag.
"Ah. Aite. Madam, yer chariot awaits." With much less showmanship than you might otherwise have (you are, after all, still treading water in the open ocean), you unroll the carpet and let it go, watching in smug pleasure as it hovers about four inches above the surface of the sea.
