The Breeze in Your Hair and the Sand Between Your Feet

Who: Open to FMA crew + Haruhi, and Sokka (Later on?)
What: Beach party + Camping/Sailing for the teens
When: 16 (Start) → 20 (Return for the teens)
Where: Beach!
Summary: An outing to the beach!
Rating: PG-13 (Shouldn't get worse than that, though?)

While Ed is cooperating and the weather is pleasant a decision is made to go to the beach and have some fun! This will work similar to a mass action log, and y'all can create and reply to threads as you see fit.

True enough. So what brought you here? Jealous Haruhi was invited?

I need a reason to visit? The teleporter is in the barracks, so it's like the ocean is practically my backyard.

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

And what, do visit often?

[markofthewise]

If I happen to know people are there? Maybe. I didn't realize I was this unwanted. [He's kidding. MAYBE.]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Just unexpected!

[markofthewise]

Fine. I'll send a messenger hawk next time.

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

It'd be appreciated.

[markofthewise]

I was- [... forget it. He groans and turns his attention to the ocean.]

So what have you guys done out here so far?

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

We've played around a bit - Ed made a boat!

[markofthewise]

He... Ed made a boat? Really?

[.... just like that?]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, with his alchemy! It took a little work, but that's because of the way Luceti is with powers I guess.

[markofthewise]

Right. A "little work". I bet it took him a whole five minutes? How awful.

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

I know alchemy takes all the work out of it, but that doesn't make it worthless.

[markofthewise]

[No, it has the opposite effect, actually.]

Yeah, yeah. I know. [He doesn't want to get into that.]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

I bet he could teach you, but am I right to think you're too much like me to try?

[markofthewise]

[... if Sokka could learn, actually, he probably would.]

What's your reason for it?

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

I find it really weird. It's not something I'm interested in. It's not bad? I just have better things to do.

[markofthewise]

I've been here too long to find things weird. I'd do it, assuming it would work.

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Really?

[markofthewise]

Why not? I spent weeks learning magic here. At least alchemy is science-y.

[And for Sokka? That was a big deal. He doesn't like going for that kind of stuff, but he'll swallow his pride if it means making himself stronger.]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Science-y, huh? I'd like to see you try it.

[markofthewise]

Why? You don't think I could do it?

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't say that.

[markofthewise]

Are you sure? Because I was picking up some strong hints of doubt there.

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

You must have been mistaken.
