EVERYBODY! EVERYBODY!

[lucetimods]

Who: Everybody! Everybody!
What: It's a beach! There's fruit! Love in the air! Classy private rooms in the mountains!
When: From sunrise to midnight! (AND IT'S TODAY! FEBRUARY 18th!)
Where: Out on the beach, centered around the teleporter/tunnel exit area. But it feels like July out there! Ain't that just the shit?
Summary: Summary? Why does this need a summary. I said everything up there. And then I'm gonna say even more after this. Why do we need this field? Seriously, anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
Rating: KEEP IT CLEAN, KIDS. Take your dirty smut to an appointments post!

Long Ago In A Distant Land, Akai, the fully functional fonbot, unleashed a fairly standard mod post. But a foolish player kept asking questions and come on, do you really need to know that much? Now everyone wants to play out their ships and get into fruit shenanigans and undo to evil that is AKAI.

((No, but seriously guys, look at the mod post, you know what to do. Everything you need is there. Mass log post, remember to tag your characters name here, and do your thing.))

OH YEAH! So like, assume there is stands (or you know, beach-appropriate huts) here and there that are stocked up on bathing suits (and curtains you can change behind), stands with beverages, and snacks. Nobody's really operating them, new stuff just gets Shifted there (BUT ONLY IF YOU'RE NOT WATCHING). The Malnosso are the most considerate bro-ginization ever.

Comments

Tsk tsk, how rude!

[analyzing]

[All the uguuuuu. And it's okay to go swimming, Caius...! She'll just, y'know, wade around. S'cool, s'cool.

--and oh, the beach ball plops harmless onto her hands (as opposed to hitting her on the face, how very unromantic that would be) and she blinks for a moment. Where did this come from?!]

'It's a part of my charm'

[accepted]

[...Yeah, where did that even come from. That's strange. Head tilt.]

What's that?

[NEVER SEEN A BEACH BALL BEFORE. Well it's obviously a ball but it's like. Different. Bigger. More colourful.]

You ain't got no charm!!

[analyzing]

What, this? [She tosses it into the air experimentally— yep, light as a beachball.] A beach ball, of course!

I am the most charming thing!!

[accepted]

Never heard of one. [But it makes sense, finding a ball on the beach and calling it a beach ball.] What can you play with it? [Looks a bit light for kicking.]

SAYS YOU.

[analyzing]

Well...it's mostly for throwing. [And she hits it upward, watches as it makes an arc-- and catches it!] But you mustn't let it hit the ground too, see?

It's not as violent as volleyball.

YES. SAYS ME. PROBLEM?

[accepted]

[Watching the ball travel through the air. Oooh~]

Oh yeah, I never had the chance to play that at the last party.

[As much as it pains him to move away from Rise he does so! Paddling off down the shore a little before turning back to face her.]

Throw it over here then!

IT'S NOT A GENERAL CONSENSUS.

[analyzing]

[Blink, and she glances at the ball, then at him as he moves away.]

But what about swimming?

Yes it is. The majority of people think this is a general consensus.

[accepted]

We can swim and play with the ball at the same time, right? I mean we're already in the water like this!

[Come on, come on, throw the ball. Let's play fetch catch!]

You aren't a majority!

[analyzing]

["That's gonna be a bit more difficult"--

--is what she was about to say, but you know what? She doesn't feel like disappointing him after she's agreed to all this. So it's just some soaked clothing. Big deal.]

Good point. Catch!

[toss!]

Yes I am!

[accepted]

[Diving for the ball, catching it in midair and splashing down into the water! This is way too much fun for just a game of catch.

Throwing the ball up and smacking it back in a volleyball like fashion. Oh yeah, he totally remembers those diagrams of hers. Too bad there's no fire and all that but it's close enough!]

Your MOM is a majority maybe.

[analyzing]

[Volleyball fire would be the most terrifying thing in the middle of a crowd.

The water offers a little resistance for movement so she has to be really careful that she doesn't trip as she runs and hits it back at him!!

This ain't no volleyball fashion, bro.]

What are you implying with that.

[accepted]

[But it would also be super cool! This is the most volleyball like of fashions, seriously, it couldn't be any more volleyball if he tried.

Who cares about tripping? Not him! Then again he's already wet from splashing around so more splashing won't do any harm.

Returning the ball again, isn't this romantic?!]

exactly what I am. dwi.

[analyzing]

[As romantic as starfish on the beach.

And reversing gears, let's get that ball, let's get that—

—okay, so. The ball? It gets hit back to him. Except that she's also tripped while hitting it and is currently going blub blub blub after a resounding SPLASH.]

See this is why you're not charming.

[accepted]

[So it's really romantic then?! :D

Screw the ball, Risa fell over, oh nooo! Batting the ball away and quickly wading through the water to get over to her, unsure whether to just pull her up now or offer a hand to help her up.]

Hey, you okay? That looked like a bad fall.

[Going with the latter and holding out a hand to her.]

your mom says i'm charming.

[analyzing]

[What's so romantic about starfish?!

It's just as well that the water's shallow here (though it's come up to her knee...then again, Rise Kujikawa is Short), but Rise looks at least disgruntled when she accepts that helping hand. Careless, so careless.]

I'm fine. I just tripped over.

[And went sprawling into the sand under the water! Her knees are a bit grazed.

...assume, for the sake of continuity, that she'd taken off her shoes and stockings earlier.]

...When did you meet my mom?

[accepted]

[I am not on the right account to be discussing starfish and how romantic they are.]

You don't look it.

[Not that he's being rude, but he does spot those grazed knees. Even if it's just a graze he's not going to let her walk back to the beach in that condition! Nope, grazes are serious things.

Which is why he's now moving to her side to pick her up bridal style and carry her out of the water. Screw being over the top over some little graze, magical love inducing fruit > sense.]

That's a secret.

[analyzing]

[Well, isn't that too bad!!

Her mouth forms a surprised O when her legs sweep off the ground and she's speechless for a moment at the gesture. Wow, so romantic, Caius!!

...don't drop her now.]

Maybe it's best I don't know...

[accepted]

[Yes. O^O Meanwhile Fuuko is screaming into the sand and hugging a starfish.

No way, like she's going to drop her now! That would just be awful. There's plenty of time for dropping her when they're in shallower water anyway--

For now he walks slowly and carefully adjusts his hands around her to make sure Rise isn't going to suddenly fall out of his grip.]

You okay like this?

Maybe so. Or maybe not. Who knows?

[analyzing]

[But are starfish romantic, Fuuko...no, they aren't.

But for now, she's just all— surprised.]

Y-yeah, I guess. Is this okay?

[analyzing]

...I'm not too heavy, am I?

[accepted]

[They are the most romantic sea creatures ever and you know it.]

No way, a shrew like you? Not heavy at all!

[And he means that in the nicest, friendly teasing way he can manage.

Stepping onto the sand and looking around for somewhere to put Rise down... There's a nice rock over there under a fruit tree, that'll do.]

Here we go. See, not a problem.

[analyzing]

[Fuuko's idea of romantic sea creatures is messed up. Also— shrew? Wow, romantic talk clearly isn't Caius' strong point!!

...not that Rise really minds, because she giggles a little at that.]

You're really used to doing these things, aren't you?

[accepted]

[Yeah well to be fair she's pretty messed up herself, the car crash must have caused brain damage or something-- YES, SHREW. It's not like he ever talked romantically to anyone back home. In fact the closest thing he had to a girlfriend he to told to shut up on a daily basis!

But if she's giggling that just secures shrew as being the best thing he can say to a girl.]

Aah well... Not really. I'm used to looking after someone back home and keeping them safe so this is just something I feel I should do. Keep you safe.

[analyzing]

[Rise doesn't come from the land of tsuntsun, thank you very much! She leans forward to listen to his words with a slight tilt of her head.]

Someone important?

[accepted]

[It's totally not the land of tsun tsun if him and everyone bar one person in his party tsuns everywhere okay.]

Someone important. But she's not here, so I can protect you instead.

[It's like she never existed~]
