[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.

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~

[Ammy quickly becomes bored of the wait. With another loud yawn, as the minutes to tick by, she makes herself comfortable in the sand, curling up with her tail over her back legs. The sun feels good on her fur, and she's just about to start dozing completely before her ear gives a pointed twitch as the voice trailing from the sky reaches its crescendo. One eye peeks open to watch him, legs shifting to move and grab him from the air if need be, but...it's not needed. He seems able to float down from the air like a feather, and Ammy relaxes again, yawning right at his face before laying her head back down on her folded paws.

He's very loud, maybe louder even than Issun, but she's used to it. Even formed the masterful ability to sleep through the Poncle's high-pitched buzzing. It's a skill she uses now, almost like a form of meditation, to drown out the angry male's voice and allow herself a minute to rest. he took his sweet ass time coming down, now she just doesn't care anymore (after seeing he wasn't in any danger).

Ammy breathes evenly, licking her lips and not giving Sanji even the faintest hint of her attention.]
