Beach Volleyball Tournament

[magentarific]

Who: Anyone!
What: Volleyball Tournament
When: July 22nd, 11am onward!
Where: The Beach!
Summary: Fun in the sun and a bit of competitive spirit! If you signed up for the volleyball tournament, be prepared to rock the house down against the opposing teams! Just there to watch? Enjoy the seats around the volleyball courts as a spectator and have a refreshing drink or some beach-side snacks! SWIMSUIT REQUIRED for everyone there. If you're found by someone in charge without one you may or may not be subject to getting mysteriously kidnapped and put in one, human or not. That's right, even chihuahuas if there are any have to at least have a cool straw hat and sunglasses.
Rating: PG-13. Please try to keep it PG-13 max and warn in the subject header for anything iffy!
When you first arrive, there will be a huge board with the brackets for the tournament on it:



{{ ooc: All of the brackets were totally randomized using RNG on random.org. Unfortunately, I don't have all of the muns memorized so if I put your character against another one of your character, PLEASE let me now ASAP and we can get that fixed! If there are no replies to a match within one week, that team will be disqualified as having not showed up, just so that we can keep going. After the first week, it will be 3 days. (The first week is to account for Otakon, since I know a lot of people are going to that.) }}

After you pass the sign, there are multiple volleyball courts set up, ref towers, lots of beach umbrellas and towels set out on the sand for viewers, and waiters and waitresses handing out drinks to anyone who comes by, courtesy of the local bars. Alcohol will only be available to those who are 18+. It's hot, too, so make sure you don't forget sunscreen!

[Joining you on the blanket, have one (1) Grune! She's probably already lost her match and will be on her way back to take part in painting the mural shortly, but she can't leave without at least stopping by.]

Hello, Arsene! Are you feeling a little better?

[Incidentally, this is entirely Adele's fault. At the pageant, she had told Grune that Lupin was "unwell" and needed visitors, which Grune has taken entirely to heart. Hell, she's probably already dropped by to see him before now. The pageant was a while ago.]

[redjacketthief]

[He was going to get revenge on Adele for that sometime in the future...but for now he puts on a smile for Grune. He couldn't do anything less for her.]

Hey, Grune-chan. I'm doing better than I was, thanks.

You looked like you were having fun out there!

[lostinmyway]

[Hearing that he's feeling better makes her smile for him even brighter.]

Oh, yes. Beach volleyball is a lot of fun! [She likes this new game!]

Are you going to play?

[redjacketthief]

No, not today.

[He sigh's, exaggerating his disappointment.] I'm doing better, but I'm still not one hundred percent--and I probably won't be for a while.

[It was the closest he was going to come to telling her about what really happened--for now.]

Thanks for asking, though. Right now? It's just fun to watch.

[lostinmyway]

Hmm.... That's too bad. I hope you can play with everyone next time.

[But she's glad he's having fun watching. She wouldn't want him to be sad because he was missing out.]

[redjacketthief]

I hope so too, Grune-chan. There's only so much spectating a man can take...

But its not bad. Really.

[lostinmyway]

Would you like to do something else together? We could build a sand castle.

[That's something he could do even though he's sick, right?]

[redjacketthief]

[He doesn't have it in him to disappoint her.]

Sand castles sound fun Grune. Maybe we could have some iced tea too, while we're doing it.

[lostinmyway]

[You're a good man, Lupin.]

Oh, that's a good idea! Iced tea is very nice when you're at the beach.

[She stands up, then holds out her hand.] We should go to the edge of the water, where the sand is nice and damp.

[redjacketthief]

[He accepts the aid gratefully, although he knew full well that she would again be disappointed if he didn't accept. She was concerned, and there was no safe way to turn her down.]

Yea, that sounds perfect!

...Thanks. I mean that.

[lostinmyway]

[And naturally, she misses any and all nuance he puts into his words.]

You're welcome! I'm glad we can spend time together like this.
