Where: The beach
Summary: A beach party for all of the Far Shore residents

[01-27 Edit: Continue your threads at the overflow post to evade captcha!]



There were certainly a lot of broken hearts and emotional roller coasters recently, so the Heavens have decided it's time to allow their people to let loose and have some fun for a little while. Through some magic - or possibly just a lot of money - they have managed to rent out an entire private beach for the event so that they won't be interrupted by any Near Shore residents. The beach is beautiful and well-maintained, the ocean goes for as far as the eye can see, and rocky outcroppings offer a handy place to dive into the water on a test of courage.

It's a beautiful summer day, perfect for swimming and cracking watermelons and playing some beach volleyball. There's even some soft music permeating the air so that nothing is every silent on this fun-filled day.

New arrivals, after having been met at the Meeting Hall, would have been immediately redirected to this party. After all, they should be enjoying themselves as well.



Swimwear

    Anyone who doesn't have swimwear will be provided with swimwear to fit their needs. Unfortunately, the Heavens don't have access to a lot of swimwear, so you'll likely wind up with something ugly, something old, or something just plain weird.


Playful Fish

    The sea critters are excited about the party too. They're happy to swim up to anyone in the water and will even come up to the shallows to take a look at the fun happening on the shore. Toe nibbling and brushes of scales are in your future, so you'd better get used to the idea if you plan on being in the water.


Barbecue

    Some basics have been provided, but everyone has been asked to bring a little something to the barbecue as well if they can. So you're more than welcome to grab one of the many grills and start frying things up. Heck, there are even fishing poles available if you feel like hauling in a few of those friendly fish to grill. Additionally, summery drinks have been provided, including iced tea, lemonade, water, and horribly fruity cocktails.


After Dark

    Just because the sun is down doesn't mean that the party's stopping! The barbecue will continue well into the night, lit now by the stars and a huge, roaring bonfire. The bonfire is maintained by Amaterasu's shinki and climbs higher than any bonfire has the right to. Also, there are floating lights in the water so that people can continue swimming now that it's dark. And if you happen to get too drunk to go home, don't worry. A white-clad shinki will be happy to put you back to bed at the end of the night. Additionally, some sparklers and small bottle rockets have been provided for your entertainment.




In Summary:
  • Get some sun
  • Go for a swim
  • Make sure you're in a swimsuit
  • Enjoy the food and activities
  • Don't drown
  • Have fun~

[ Of course you haven't. Hibiki sighs. ]

You're blocking the light.

[ This is a stupid thing to say because there is light everywhere, but if this boy is anything like she thinks he is, he'll actually fall for it and move. ]

[That... Roxas huffs.]

Your umbrella is doing that job already.

[He's not an idiot.]

[ Maybe he's not from where he's standing. ] And it is more than adequate.

I'm in the middle of something.

[ She hefts her script. Don't make her read out loud, buster. Because she totally will.

And it's a terrible script. ]
missingache: ([31] How come I’m never able)

[personal profile] missingache 2017-01-17 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
......

[How does that even make sense.

Oh! But he knows what one of those is! Hane had read scripts.]


Are you an actor?
priforprince: (displeased)

[personal profile] priforprince 2017-01-17 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
I'm a god.

[ As is everybody here, but it feels good to be able to say it.

That question also doesn't merit an answer. Where were you when variations on her name were the top five search terms worldwide on the largest Internet search engine? Where were you for the Parademy Awards? Being from another dimension is no excuse. Anyone who does not already know of Shikyoin Hibiki does not deserve to know Shikyoin Hibiki! ]


Let me be.
missingache: ([12] And I care what people think)

[personal profile] missingache 2017-01-17 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
So am I, but you can do other things than just be a god.

[Seriously. You are so rude, and he doesn't even know your name! Roxas wants to point out that there's people here who have part time jobs or have super important world saving roles back home. Like him. Yes. He's important, or so Sora lets him know.

Let me be?

Nope. Not moving. Not until he knows her name so he knows who to avoid. Possibly.]

[ She pulls a face. ] You?

[ Then she sighs. Louder, this time. The fact that this kid just won't leave her alone has her not even attempting to put on the Prince façade. Something about him makes her feel like she can be herself around him. Almost like they're already acquainted.

Which is weird. But she's piqued, so she's too busy riding the tide of her own irritation to analyze it. ]
Whatever is the management of this universe thinking, pulling willy-nilly like that? It certainly took them long enough to lock onto an actually qualified candidate. To think that you could have been here already, as god of - whatever you please - when it took them this long to realize that none but I, Shikyoin Hibiki, could ever hold the post of Apollo -

[ Give her a second. The outrage is so great she's searching for sufficiently overlarge vocabulary words. ]
missingache: ([22] Wish we could turn back time)

[personal profile] missingache 2017-01-17 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
[WOW THAT'S RUDE] Yeah. Got a problem with that?

[How does he keep running into people like this? Why is he bickering with her instead of walking away like he's done to so many other people? Listening to he and her rant just makes Roxas roll his eyes until that last word.]

Wait! [Let there be a momentary silence.] ... you're Apollo. The Apollo, god of the sun and medicine and stuff. [This is just great.] Why are you my twin?! Is this some joke?!!
priforprince: (master)

[personal profile] priforprince 2017-01-17 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
[ AND ON TOP OF ALL THAT YOU INTERRUPT HER--

--just a minute. Hibiki scoffs aloud. ]
I suppose you're implying you're Artemis?

[ Another snort of laughter. ] More erroneous nonsense. Ancient Preece is the birthplace of theater. Don't disgrace it by association.

[ yes she

just said "Preece." ]
missingache: ([81] And the glare)

[personal profile] missingache 2017-01-17 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
Been Artemis since I got here.

[Roxas knows Artemis and Apollo fought like cats and dogs, and these two are doing just that. Why is he/she his twin?

He grumbles and narrows his eyes at that.]
It's Greece. Not Preece. At least get the country right.
priforprince: (huffy)

[personal profile] priforprince 2017-01-17 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
I think I'd know the name of the country I've toured.

[ Preece, okay? Preece. North of Pegypt. On the continent of Europara. Which is where she happens to be from, so she's intimately acquainted with the place.

Hibiki unfolds herself from her beach chair, setting her teacup down on the little table holding the pitcher. ]
I don't have to sit here and listen to this nonsense.

[ Ando, get the umb--

Oh, right. She's a god, but she's on her own. Well, supposedly she has that soulbonded servant thing, but that was all extremely bizarre and she's pretty sure it was a trick. She'll have to take this umbrella down herself, then. ]
missingache: ([78] You reflect)

[personal profile] missingache 2017-01-17 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
It's not called Preece here. It's Greece. Look on a map.

[Other worlds are still so weird.

Roxas drops his shoulders, sighing loudly.]


I was here way before you! I should be saying that!

[Hah. Plus he's already got the advantage of three shinki under his belt.] Besides, being Artemis makes me the older twin! Like I need to listen to you.
priforprince: (nonsense)

[personal profile] priforprince 2017-01-17 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
Balderdash.

[ Just "nonsense" doesn't cut it now, apparently. Especially since you probably do have a point about the map. It would follow if the part about this being a different dimension is true.

And it's taking her a bit to figure out how to work this latch on the umbrella - she's never had to set one of these up herself before, okay? That's what lesser people are for -

Whoa okay, there it goes. Hibiki has to steady the umbrella so it doesn't snap shut on her hands.

Don't. Say. A word. ]
missingache: ([14] And I care what you think)

[personal profile] missingache 2017-01-17 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
Balder-what?

[Oh-kay? Not a word he's familiar with. First of all it starts with what sounds like Sora's god name, and then dash? So was Baldr dashing? No... it's gotta mean something different. Dictionary. Later.

That train of thought goes out the window as he starts watching Hibiki.

....... she's not very good at this.]


... do you need help?
priforprince: (snap)

[personal profile] priforprince 2017-01-17 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
It's you who've driven me to such inevitabilities.

[ One of them needs to depart this section of beach. If it's not gonna be him, then it's gonna be her.

Rolling up her script, Hibiki sticks it in her back pocket. What should come next....? Hm. Tea. She pours out another full cup and lifts it to her lips. Probably can't carry all this - she'd done multiple trips before - so she'll help herself to one more cup and have done with it... ]


missingache: ([12] And I care what people think)

[personal profile] missingache 2017-01-17 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
[This has go to be the weirdest way to meet a god sibling. Seriously. Roxas doesn't know what to do other than to watch Hibiki with weird fascination.

Who drinks hot tea in the summer?]


You're the one who flipped out.
priforprince: (stoic)

[personal profile] priforprince 2017-01-17 05:24 am (UTC)(link)
[ It's iced tea, fortunately. Or well. It was. Someone spent so long blathering at her that now it's more like lukewarm water that once in a prior life had been tea. But Hibiki's committed to draining this cup, so she will.

She also considers this conversation over, so once she's done with her tea she leans her umbrella atop one shoulder and moves to go. Then thinks better of it and pours the rest of the pitcher into the cup, picks up the cup, and turns again. Lousy tea > no tea. ]


Good day.

[ And she is literally going to try and up and leave. Just. Walk away with her script in her pocket, her umbrella slung over her shoulder like she's about to perform Singin' in the Rain with an entirely-too-large prop, and a cup of what wishes it were dearly still tea in her hand.

You may, if you wish, use the beach chair. ]
