lucetilogs | Beach Volleyball Tournament

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!

That's not very fair. Neither of have any special powers. I don't think there's any prizes anyway.

You still move too fast for anyone to keep up. That'd make a pretty one-sided game.

We might be fast, but we've never played it before. Our inexperience would slow us down.

To a human level?

We're already at a human level.

Human human, not Xingese acrobat human.

Well if it's that much of a problem, perhaps Ran Fan and I could simply play on different teams.

Huh, now that I'd be interested in watching. I wonder which of you could win.

I suppose it would depend on which of us recruited May first.

Oh, right, the third one. She's fast, too?

I haven't seen her in action, but she wouldn't have survived very long without some amount of talent.

I buy that. It sounds like she had some run-ins with the family, so she has to be good.

Children of the Emperor have fragile lives. We learn to work hard to preserve them.

[That's rough, buddy.]

They must have done some work on you, then, since fragile would be the last word I'd use for you.

That's the way we humans are. After all, most of us don't get to recover from fatal wounds.

I guess we're just a bunch of spoiled kids compared to you humans. You must have some outlook, kid, being the only one aside from that bastard Wrath to have lived as both.

Either one is fine with me. Living is living, no matter your form.

That's a pretty simple philosophy. [A thoughtful pause.] I like it.

Thank you. Though I do miss having that Ultimate Shield. It was very useful.

Of course you do, it completes the "stay alive as long as you can" package. And it saved me from having to wear one of those ugly things up to space.

Ugly? I wouldn't say that. They happened to be particularly appealing.

[Especially when worn by the womenfolk. Not as nice as the bikinis out here. But close.]

Please. You don't know fashion. [Or what shirts are.]

But I do know women. Perhaps even better, after that.

[Come on Greed. You had to notice too.]

Of course they looked fine on attractive women. Anything'd look fine on them. It's still not my style. [Not enough random fur?]

Not enough leather, I suppose.
