Beach Party!

[skilledwithwords]

Who: OPEN TO ALL!
What: Beach Party!
Where: Dubai Sub-archway
When: All Day May 31st

[Everyone will get an invitation though there are specific friends of Levy's that she sends personal messages to imploring that they come and have a good time at the beach. There have been more than a few trying things as of late and she thinks that everyone needs to have a chance to relax and have fun.

After getting permission from Troy she sets up a little space on the beach within Dubai's sub-archway. Just as he promised it's the most beautiful beach she's seen. The water is crystal clear and the sand almost a pearly white.

She has a few things set up for those who arrive. There are tables and chairs under canopy and a few extra towels for those who forgot to bring one. There is a boardwalk nearby that people can walk down, checking out the shops and the food. Levy has watermelon and others summer time snacks set up for people to pick at. There is a beach ball and a net set up for those who want to play on the beach.

As the sun sets there will be fireworks and star gazing.

As a benefit of knowing Troy there are also rooms available at the hotel located behind the party. The Atlantis is a nice place and will be the hosts of the fireworks show as well.]

Comments

Levy | OPEN

[skilledwithwords]

[Levy is happy that she's been able to organize this. She can be found playing in the water or just sitting on the beach with a book, a towel beneath her to keep the scolding sand from her pale skin. Wherever she is there is a smile spread across her lips.

As the night she watches the stars and then waits for the fireworks to litter the sky with light. She really likes fireworks. Which is most likely due to Fairy Tail's influence.]

Elize | OPEN

[teepokisses]

[A day at the beach? Elize wasn't aware there was a beach. And what happens at a beach? Swimming and having fun!

Dressed in a pink ruffled skirtini (bat wings not included), Elize can be found kneeling in the sand, building a sand Teepo, with the doll itself orbiting the girl and sometimes sitting beside the sandy doppleganger to model.]

[maybeitsmaybelline]

[Roman's kicked off his sandals for a stroll along the beach. Meet some neighbors, scare some seagulls, that kind of thing. But when he sees Teepo, he stops in his tracks. Forget the disgustingly cute girl. That thing cancels out any charm she might have had. He peers over his sunglasses with a look of unveiled disgust.]

What is that?

[God, Roman. You can't just ask that about someone's pet!]

Adela | OPEN

[enchantressofore]

[ Between her own curiosity and urging from her new companion Gaomon, Adela somehow ends up at the beach party in the Dubai sub-archway. Along with that is another miracle of miracles, with Adela actually wearing a swimsuit. Granted, it's not the most revealing thing, but professional swimwear still counts. ]

A.

[ At first, she's seated near the water underneath a beach umbrella, occupying herself by watching Gaomon play on the tide with a cool drink in hand. Not that she isn't used to the sun (with how freckled and tanned her skin is), but she's not up to playing straight away - especially without anyone she really knows there. ]

B.

[ Later she might be swimming or playing games however. Once she is she might even be smiling and laughing, finally relaxing and not worrying about how much of her skin is exposed, how scarred and calloused it might be or anything of the sort. Even if she just ends up spending the whole day with Gaomon, it isn't a waste by any means. ]

C.

[ When the sun sets and the night comes, Adela can't help watching the fireworks above with awe. She's never seen anything like it before after all, not up close like then, and along with the stars painted across the night sky... Well, it's a great way to end the night.

She'll probably be feeling whatever sunburn she has along her shoulders for at least a week though. ]

[teepokisses]

[Elize looks up to the man who was clearly interested in Teepo. Carefully, she stands up and keeps a fair distance as Teepo floats around her and settles in her arms.]


"I am a one-of-a-kind adorable plush companion. My name is Teepo. And this is my BFF, Elize."


"How do you do?"

[maybeitsmaybelline]

[Congrats! They've managed to startle the hell out of a dignified crime kingpin. Don't feel too proud-- it's not nearly as hard as he'd like to think. He jumps and reflexively points his cane at Teepo.]

It talks?!

[But it's obviously not a threat to anything except his sanity, so he lowers his cane and looks at Elize.]

I've gotta say, sweetheart, not as well as I was doing before I knew that thing existed.

Van Fanel | OPEN

[king_of_fanelia]

[ Welp. Here's a grumpy boy. He's in a pair of red trunks. He's also trying to stay as far away from most people as possible, mostly sitting on the beach and watching. It's also very clear that he's uncomfortable just being there. So why is he?

One might blame a girl named Sakura for his presence there, and they would be correct.

Regardless of how or why, Van seems perfectly content to be by himself and will likely remain that way without interference. But that's no fun so someone needs to go and bother him to try and let the teenage would-be-king actually have fun for once. ]

[teepokisses]

"I actually just vocalize Elize's thoughts."

[Proud Teepo is proud. Teepo being called a thing mildly offended Elize. However, she is pretty bad at sounding assertive.]


"Teepo is not a thing. He's my friend."

Belle | Open

[namemeansbeauty]

[Belle had never really been to a beach before, so being able to come was quite an exciting experience. So making sure that her swimsuit was sitting well in the right places she was more than happy to at sit down in the sane and feel the sand between her fingers. One might find her simply sitting on a towel, enjoying what appeared to be a heavy bound book. Other might find her dipping her feet into the water, feeling the sea lap up on them. It was slightly cold, but nice.]

[spitfireprincess]

You aren't having fun?

[Sakura is wearing a pale pink bathing suit that shows off a small part of her mid-drift. There are frills around her hips making the bathing suit look cute more than anything else. She smiles softly at Van as she takes a seat next to him.

She loves the sand, it reminds her of home.]

Anastasia || Open

[innocent_royal]

[Anastasia had never been to a beach before, but she knew it was a coast line. If she came here, she would see the ocean without sheets of ice or getting sea sick on a boat.

She is dressed in a new swimsuit, once more a pink one-piece with a matching skirt. Her previous mermaid look restricted her legs too much. But as she arrives at the beach, she immediately regrets it. The hot sand, and the oppressive sun was quickly wearing her out and harming her. But luckily, she came with a white parasol, so it was slowing down the rate of harm to her.

Anastasia was close to the water, so quickly and carefully, she makes her way in. She will stop when the water waves around her waist and chest, now safe from the heat. Of course, she still has her parasol, so congratulations to this princess for looking awkward.]

Zelos | Open

[chosensecond]

[Where there are beaches, there are beach babes. Even though Zelos should really, REALLY be doing something more important, he really can't resist.

Arriving in only sunglasses and swimming briefs, he was showing off his fantastic Tetha'allan chosen body for all the ladies here. The sea air reminds him of Altamira and briefly wonders how Regal is doing - and the rest of his companions in general.

But he wasn't going to let his thoughts linger on that. He was finally free from his responsibilities as a Chosen of Mana, and that drama with Cruxis and he needs to live it up while he's still alive, and more importantly, still young and sexy.

Wandering up and down the beach, Zelos checks out all the beach hunnies who are chilling or sun-bathing, looking for a suitable target to flirt with.]

Alice Margatroid || Open

[superficially_busy]

[After doing a job well done with those security dolls in Fayren, Alice didn't mind coming out for some R&R.

Dressed in a casual blue one-piece ruffled swimsuit, Alice relaxed in a beach chair, shaded by a umbrella to protect her pale skin, reading a book that was most definitely not any light reading for leisure time, but doing research. Of course Alice wouldn't stop being a superficially busy youkai.

Meanwhile, her two dolls, dressed in the same kind of swimsuit as their master, one in a darker shade of blue, and the other in red, were playing in the sand. They were building the Scarlet Devil Mansion out of sand. However, just as they were working on the mansion's clock tower, the whole thing collapsed. The red doll took a tiny toy shovel and bonked the blue doll over the head, dropping the shovel at their side. Then, they restarted construction.]

Yang and Blake | OPEN

[beauty_burns_gold]

[A beach party isn't something that Yang would miss. The sun, the ocean, the food! It's a great way to try and relax and not worry about things. The blonde's dressed in a simple orange bikini and a pair of sandals. Over the bikini she's wearing a lavender button down shirt, a light shirt that's left unbuttoned but allowed to drape over her shoulders. No sense in making others feel bad over her missing arm.

To make it better, Yang's brought her girlfriend along to relax with. Holding Blake's hand in her left (really her only hand, but still), the blonde couldn't help but have a cheerful smile on her face as she strode onto the beach.]

So, Blake. Where would you want to set up the blankets?

[At least she can hold those under the stump of her right arm.]

Airy | OPEN

[imaginationswoes]

[At first Airy isn’t planning to come but she really wants to see the beach. She bought a new swim suit. She found the colors too cute to pass up.

Her Digimon, who she affectionately named Ebi, is ecstatic to see the ocean and is running around with a ball that Airy had gotten her at the store. She can be found with Ebi: playing catch, building sand castles and then splashing in the water. When she swims out into the ocean Ebi waits at the coast and watches nervously as if expecting something bad to happen while her friends away.

When the sun sets Airy pulls on a pair of shorts and a multi colored cover up to fight off the slight chill in the air. It’s still hot out but it’s always windy by the beach. She sits with Ebi in her lap, her eyes watching the fireworks and then stars.

Today had been a perfect distraction though she knows it won’t last. She’ll always look back on this memory with a smile.]

Crystal | Open

[highprices]

[Crystal is sitting on a beach chair with her long beautiful legs stretched out in front of her. Her bathing suit is black and white with specks of gold but sleek, showing off all of her curves. There is a book resting to her right and a drink in the cup holder on her left. There is a towel beneath her but it doesn’t look like its seen water.

She seems content to simply enjoy the kiss of the sun’s rays.

Her eyes are obscured by sunglasses and because of that it’s difficult to see where she is looking. Her short curly blond hair frames either side of a sultry smile. Her thin fingers run along the outside of her drink, enjoying the cool condensation that drips down the side of her glass.

For the moment she’s watching the waves, taking note how they crash against the beach spraying salt through the air. This is the perfect day for this kind of thing and despite her anti-social habits she enjoys listening to those around her.]

[highprices]

[Crystal is sitting with a book, her body laid out on a chair. Her bathing suit is black and white with specks of gold but sleek, showing off all of her curves. Long legs stretch in front of her and a light coy smile pulls at her lips. Her eyes are obscured by sunglasses and because of that it’s difficult to see where she is looking.

After a moment she places her book aside and waves at Zelos, her curly blond hair framing either side of her sultry smile.]

[spitfireprincess]

[Sakura is wearing a pale pink bathing suit that shows off a small part of her mid-drift. There are frills around her hips making the bathing suit look cute. She smiles softly as she moves into the water.

She isn’t bothered by the heat or the sun. She loves the sand and the beach it reminds her of home even though there isn’t very much water in the desert. When she reaches Anastasia she smiles, though it doesn’t reach her eyes like it has in the past.]

Did you put on suntan lotion?

[She holds up the bottle for her friend to see.]

The light will refract off of the surface of the water and it can still burn your skin.

[Even with a parasol.]

[chosensecond]

[Zelos spots the finest of honnies he has thus far met. Seeing her in such a suit? It sends his heart soaring and...among other things.

Zelos walks on over with his usual swagger, settling down in the sand beside Crystal, leaning back and laying his head in her lap looking up at her.]


"Hey beautiful. Is this spot taken?"

[innocent_royal]

"Burn...!?"

[Anastasia tries to walk towards Sakura. The waves occasionally causing her to stagger, but she doesn't slip. She eventually reaches her friend, absent-mindedly fussing with her skirt as the wet material sticks to her legs. It feels really weird.]

"...Sakura... What is suntan lotion?"

[That was never mentioned in her last swim class.]

[teepokisses]

[Elize had been wandering up and down the beach in her pink, ruffled skirtini looking for sea shells. Whatever she collected, she fed them to Teepo for safe keeping. She has no idea what she will do with them.

But then she spots Airy. She wasn't going to pass up on talking to a new friend, so she walks on over to her with Teepo held in her arms.]

"Hi, Airy."


"Wah-hey, good to see ya!"

[highprices]

[The strands of his red hair tickle against her bare stomach. A soft laugh escapes her lips as she looks down at Zelos.]

No, though it’s yours if you’d like it.

[She finds Zelos entertaining and harmless. He’s cute and he looks good in a bathing suit.]

[spitfireprincess]

[Sakura holds up the bottle for Anastasia to read.]

It will protect your skin from burning in the sun. I can put some on you if you want.

[She just hopes that Anastasia doesn’t wash it off or touch it and then touch her eyes. Sakura isn’t surprise if it had never been mentioned in swimming class. Swimming isn’t always outside.]

[imaginationswoes]

[Airy looks up and smiles at the pair of them. Ebi is currently mounding sand up to make a sandcastle.]

Hi Elize, Teepo. [She nods her head.] You look really cute.

[Airy really likes frilly things but it’s a secret because she doesn’t tell people that.]

This is Ebi. I don’t know if you guys have met.

[Ebi looks up from his work and blinks at the pair.]

Good day, Elize and Teepo.

[innocent_royal]

"The contents of this bottle can actually protect me from the heat of the sun?"

[This sounds too good to be true. A solution to her peoples' evolutionary downside. Armed with such a product, her kingdom would become a true super power. Too bad she has no contact with her true world, though.]

"Yes, please. I don't know how to use this suntan lotion, so it would be better if you did it."
