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~

[Roxas understands the need for a break from everyone. He's had to do it a few times himself.

Lucky for Sheryl, he's so into watching the world and eating ice cream he doesn't notice her till she covers his eyes. There's a soft squeak before he laughs.]


Hmm... Sheryl?
galactically: (bikini-clad fairy)

[personal profile] galactically 2017-01-19 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
Bingo!

[She laughs as well, removing her hands from Roxas's eyes before she wraps her arms around him for a quick hug.]

I hope you've been behaving well while I was gone for almost a week.
missingache: ([82] Makes me hard to find)

[There is no minding a hug from Sheryl.]

... I tried. But some things happened, and it wasn't fun. [He nervously laughs.] If it wasn't for Sora, some new friends, and my shinki, I would have probably been off a lot worse. What about you?
galactically: (my feelings do not rest)

["Some things happened, and it wasn't fun". That phrase echoes in her mind, a bitter reminder of the parade with corpses.

She's rather torn, really. On one hand, she'd never want to inflict what happened to her on him, but on the other hand...]


I see. [She says quietly, then sighs after letting him go.] Some things happened that weren't fun for me, either. Such a drag. [A headshake.] But nevermind that. No more depressing things!

[It hurts to hear her so sad, and he really doesn't want to add on to that. So he nods.]

Yeah! Today's a good day! No ruining it.
galactically: (to pout cutely)

[personal profile] galactically 2017-01-19 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
Right!

[Thanks for perking her up, Roxas. She appreciates it. Her gaze darts over to the cooler before it lingers back at him.]

Are those popsicles? Hey, I want some! I'm kinda starving right about now.
missingache: ([49] My name's Blurryface)

[personal profile] missingache 2017-01-19 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
[With a big smile he nods again.]

I brought a bunch of different ones! Even sea salt!
galactically: (... what)

[personal profile] galactically 2017-01-19 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
Do you have a cherry one?

[She spares the cooler an expectant look, resting a hand on her hip.]

Sea salt? I didn't know that flavor exists on ice cream!

[Or Roxas told her about it, but she forgot...]
missingache: ([58] Wish we could turn back time)

[personal profile] missingache 2017-01-19 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
[Of course there is cherry. He pulls two out.]

I've got cherry and cherry cream.

[Once she's picked one, he grabs one in a soft blue color.]

It's sweet and salty!
galactically: (my feelings do not rest)

[personal profile] galactically 2017-01-20 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
Decisions, decisions...

[She may look like she's thinking really hard on which popsicle to choose, but the choice is swift. Right as she takes the cherry one, her eyes focus on the blue treat with a slight eyebrow arch.]

I didn't think sea salt can taste both salty and sweet.
missingache: ([3] I wish I had a better voice)

[personal profile] missingache 2017-01-20 08:10 am (UTC)(link)
[And the cherry cream goes back into the cooler. He nods and unwraps it, holding it up for Sheryl.]

Wanna try some?
galactically: (be good boys and girls)

[personal profile] galactically 2017-01-21 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
Sure! I'd love to.

[Anything for Roxas. She trusts his judgement, of course, so she quickly takes a nibble of the popsicle.]

Hm... not bad. [A pause, then after a brief second to ponder:] I think I like this flavor.
missingache: ([9] I was told when I get older)

[personal profile] missingache 2017-01-21 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
[He waits.... and then lights up with a big smile.]

Really? It's Sora's and Axel's favorite, too!
