Sanae grinned. There we go! "You heeeaaard me. Two cat islands! Main population, cats! No humans. Though, one was artificially created, so still infrequent human visitors there."
She drank some more, overly tipsy. Drinking even more, having gone from sad past to silly vacation trip plans. She was genuinely happy and forgot how much time has passed since the last time they had a drink together. It reminded her of a simpler past, Freeport 11 and other things. but she felt happy to have this moment. Happy to see an old friend smile. "And hai, of course there's a fish island. Also a Raven island, if you want. Do you want an island?"
Sanae tried her best to sound serious about this, though her voice cracked and she ended up outing a chuckle.

A grin emerged, half wheezing a silent chuckle, still self conscious about drawing too much attention to herself, despite not being too bothered.
"What would even be the purpo-... Can I train the avians to steal tourists belongings? "
That awkward grin emerged, puckering her expression up. She took another prolonged sip, not wanting to allow the drink to goto waste. Though some curiosity came to mind. The materialist part of her saw no purpose in creating an island of felines, but there was still the sentiment of bewilderment behind it.
Sanae had little will to let the drink go to waste as well and kept up with Raven's pace. A common mistake of hers, she knew but she could not care less. Getting totally wasted was a bad idea but she was still far away enough from losing control.. "As always, planning mischief!! But sure, we could go there. The.. real one though. Fujiwara. It's far wilder, they only let researchers and veterinarians on it, usually. I.. I could arrange it, if you really want to..Kyushu also has the diving spot I meant earlier."
She briefly got lost in a thought, trying to estimate a proper timeframe for this. Perhaps one, one and a half days? She should be able to slip away for about that long without any special preparations too..

The menacing grin remained, chaos was always entertaining to her.
"Of course! A little chaos here and there to challenge the norm, spice things up is just fine. Though, chaos cant last forever. "
Finishing up her drink.
"Listen... I, erm... There's a few things I need to handle within the next few weeks. I have to return home to sort out some... Work, medical, things, what not. I would love to see the island. I'll contact you when I am free, is that alright? "
From a menacing smirk, to a doozy smile, she eagerly awaited her answer.
Sanae almost forgot about the business Sapphire mentioned earlier. It was a shame but she was not exactly sure how long it would take to convince certain groups to hand out a special permit for Fujiwara just because. Maybe this was good? "Uuuhh.. that's fine. Gives me time to handle the paperwork, you know, permits and such. And book a hotel, all this. Travel expenses are on me, just saying already. Just remind me.. hm, maybe three or four days before you're free?"
Weeks, weeks.. she noticed this might not just be good but actually perfect. She could thoroughly prepare everything, or rather have it prepared for her. "And no backing out, got it? Unless it's really a serious matter, you got no chance to escape this. Both diving trip and the cat island, hai?"

Begrudgingly groaning, she really didn't like the idea of receiving a freebie, especially something that was of her own decision, no guarantee that she may like it or not.
"Mhm... You know I can pay for it? You don't need to owe me anything. "
Sanae uttered a chuckle at her reaction. Wasn't this the same case last time they had a drink? She was sure, or at least vaguely remembered Raven disliking her to pay for the drink... "Fiiiiine! No way I'll argue with you about some credits. I'll still choose the hotel and way of transit to the island, that is still okay, riiiight?"
Sanae lifted her glass, it was almost half full still... she stared at the liquid for a moment and took a large swig. She sighed, hoping this was not going to be too much alcohol in the end.

An exhale, jesting through her released breath, taking a very light hearted stance about a serious concern,
"Ohhh, if the hotel is rigged and I get ambushed, I'm going to haunt you from beyond the grave... "
She glared down at her own glass, then proceeded to hastily down it - finishing it off from half way. Fluttering a few blinks, she had familiar concerns of becoming too intoxicated, yet she was not too bothered. At least not yet.
Sanae noticed Raven finishing her drink, should she really follow through with this? She did not touch her glass for the moment... "No worries, no ambushes, meaning no haunting! Unless you make me take my Miki to the hotel. Then I cannot guarantee for anything."
She chuckled, not elaborating but instead finishing her glass too. A light shudder ran through her body.. it relieved her to see that the bottles were pretty much empty by now.
