[PP/F24] Beach Party ♥ >>Ocean Waves Manor<<

[Kityuisa 0]

This party will be held much like a boss raid or a timed event. Players will have 36 hours to post before
being skipped out of rotation. However many times you are skipped, reduces your overall SP gain.

Each Rotation initiates something new. Between each rotation you may post however much you want
as long as there are three posts above you that are not your other accounts. *This is a suggestion

It was the day of the party. The weather on floor twenty four was clear and sunny. The perfect day to spend on the beach. The clear looking ocean water pooled in its basin. The gentle waves lulling on the shore. Small crabs scurried here and there before disappearing into the water. Seagulls were grouped up on the sandy beach, dashing at the crabs as they reappeared and disappeared again.

Kityuisa was setting everything up, excited for what was about to come. She had planned the entire event for quite a while over the course of the past few weeks. Everything that had been bothering her up until now, seemed to dissipate. Mitsuko stood behind a small table that was set up nearby. She was carefully looking over the vanity sweets that were set up. Kityuisa felt the breeze sweep up off of the ocean waves. The smell of salt tinging the air in a feeling of freedom. Kityuisa was excited for the party, and so was Tanine Willowflame, her pure black cat.

Willow was flicking her tail as Kityuisa went inside to bring out the last of the preparations. Her fingers resting on the last of the delicious looking lemon cakes. She set them on the table before giving a soft smile. Today will be a good day. It was time for the party to start.

[Dustin 0]

Dustin walks down the beach, footprints in the sand reveal he had been doing this for a while. Why was he here? A party he had heard about was happening right up the shore, and he was planning to make the party as lively as he possibly can. It’s gonna be a par-tay. He smiles and sings as he treks through the mush of the wet muddy sand under his feet. Up between his toes shot some of the beach as he continues forth, his brown hair blowing in the wind and his brown eyes squinting. “Bright and shiny day, could’ve taken a swim, but this party’s gonna be awesome.” His smile only grows more as he pushes himself up the hill towards the area everyone talked about and suddenly, it came into view.

A party was clearly going down, and Dustin was ready to get his laid back on. His inventory opens up as he flips through and removes his clothes and in an instant equips his swimming attire. It had been too long since Dustin took a break, and he was gonna get the full experience. Pulling out a popsicle, he approaches the apparent host of the party, as she was the only person he could see, and extends one of his snacks towards her. An ice cream sandwich, the only one Dustin had, was his offering and he was kinda mad at himself for trying to give it away. “The name’s Dustin. Need any help setting up?”

[Vigilon 0]

(OOC: I do hope nobody minds me bringing along two NPC Players in the thread for the sake of rp)

Vigilon had been hearing of a beach party going to happen on floor 24. Knowing that it was floor 24, he would...nah, he had nothing to worry about! This may be a tier three floor, but most of the monsters here were around the strength of being a challenge to level 24 players or lower, and Vigilon was already level 32! Eight level difference! He could make the trip! Of course, he knew of someone, no, two players, who couldn't make the trip on their own, so he would bring them along with him. His girlfriend, Krysta, and his friendly acquaintance, Astralin. 

The trip was almost without any encounters with hostile monsters, only one showed up, and it was easily defeated. He made sure to give the two each a teleport crystal in case of emergency. Once the players reached the area, Vigilon would head over to some nearby cover, and use the equipment system to swap out his combat gear for his beach gear, a pair of swim trunks and a t-shirt. After doing so, he would begin heading over to the two players he was escorting, but he would also notice the arrival of two other players... Two of his real-world friends, Amelia and Allen, known in game as Kanari_Kakaze and Shuliik. Kanari was wearing a one-piece lime green swimsuit, with an expression that gave away that she was not only ready for the beach...but also some potential mischief. Shuliik was wearing a black pair of swim trunks, and he seemed to be speaking to Kanari, probably suggesting that she should avoid making mischief. Nevertheless, he would walk back over and speak to the players he'd escorted to the event. "So, I think that since we're here, we should head over and speak to the host of the event. Also, it looks like two of my real-world friends are coming, too. Well, anyway, we made it here, so, that's good to know."

Vigilon is wearing a red pair of swim trunks and a t-shirt silver in color, with red lines coming down from the sides. Other than that, there's not much else to say.

[Krysta 0]

Krysta was happy to accept her boyfriend's offer to escort her and his acquaintance to the beach party on the twenty-fourth floor. Krysta would assist Vigilon with the only hostile encounter, and the beast was swiftly vanquished. She was able to become acquainted with Astralin during the journey. It would seem that this player wasn't one for blade weapons, yet she got the game anyway. Was she expecting there to be other things in this game? Whatever the case, she seemed like quite an energetic young woman.

When the players arrived at the beach, Vigilon would seek out some cover in order to change using the equip system. Most likely, it brought him some feeling of security to do so, and Krysta would follow suit, seeking out some cover as well to use the equip system to swap out her normal adventuring gear for her beach outfit. When she came out, she was wearing a one-piece white swimsuit, and she would swiftly reunite with the two players. Vigilon would note that two of his real-world friends were apparently coming, and Krysta would turn around to see two players, one who she recognized, and one who she did not recognize. She would turn to look at Astralin, and decide to tell her, "He's not wrong, they're approaching as we speak. I would be cautious with the girl, she can be a bit...wild sometimes." To Vigilon, she would say, "Certainly, that might be the best course of action as to how we begin our time in this event."

Krysta's appearance(Description, not image...):

Spoiler

Krysta is currently wearing a one-piece white swimsuit. In her inventory, there is a white flowing dress that can be worn at the beach that she may equip over it, depending on the situation.

 

[Astralin 0]

Astralin had a chance to talk to Vigilon and a girl who just happened to be his girlfriend, a girl going by the name Krysta. "Oh, so you two are a couple? Aaaaah, you two look SO CUTE together!!" Indeed, they looked adorable together. It was nice being escorted to the beach event on the twenty-fourth floor by this kindhearted couple. Vigilon seemed to be a martial artist, who had yet to nail an actual style for being an adventurer. Must have been the stats of his gear that were too good to pass up. Krysta looked like a justified, heroic, fairytale maiden who fought for the good of others. She definitely had a style in mind, no question. Astralin knew what her preferred style of gear was, and if she could have it, she would get it and nail that look! She already felt that she was, at the current moment. She might not have three enhanced items equipped when it comes to being out in the field just yet, but she was currently liking how her gear was already coming together.

The players arrived at the beach where the party was going to be, and the two players split up to find cover to change in, probably by using the equip system These two were smart. Astralin smiled, and sought out cover as well, changing into a one-piece swimsuit as well with the equip system. When the three players met back up, Vigilon would suggest the first action they would do, which was a good one, to be honest. Vigilon would also notice that two of his real-world friends had shown up. Krysta would warn Astralin that the female of the two had a tendency to be...wild? Um...what kind of wild, exactly? At any rate, Vigilon and Krysta would begin heading over to where the host may be. She followed them, but if she stuck around, she would be the first to notice another player coming around the horizon...

A player with black hair(with a streak of hair dyed ultramarine blue) and blue eyes, wearing a one-piece blue swimsuit, would be over at the waves already, feeling the water moving along her ankles. It would be a few minutes of gazing out into the view before she would turn and notice Astralin, who was her friend from the real world. She began running over, but would bump into Vigilon's friends by accident. "Oof, agh, sorry, coming through!"

Astralin's appearance:

Astralin can be seen wearing a purple one-piece swimsuit with a trail of small stars silver in color. Sorry, perverts, no overexposure photos of a faceclaim for you!

[Ruby 0]

Ruby was ready for the day Kit's party was to fully come, and today was that day. She was excited to finally put back on her swimsuit, and well... see other women in their swimsuits. Arriving on the scene she had seen faces she surely has seen before, just doesn't recognize by name. Walking up to @Kityuisa she had said out to her "Oh my~ you look so adorable and beautiful in that swimsuit of yours~ fits you perfectly." then had looked over to @Jomei as he came up to compliment Kit as well, she had placed a hand on her hip and said out to him with a smile "Hey you~ its been a long time since I have last seen you casually. What have you been up to robin hood?" she had giggled. She then looked around to all the people that had been arriving, however she was going to leave the rest alone till she thought everyone that was coming was here.

[Hikoru 0]

Hikoru let out a small sigh of relief as he appeared on the 24th floor. While this was one of the newer floors, he really didn't explore it much, as there were many many islands around and it felt like a lot of work for someone who had so much to do already. Training Aru in how he worked and still having multiple meeting to attend a lot of nights put a toll on him for time. However, he was a lot more free than he used to be, and able to sleep a lot more.

He showed up to the beach where the happenings seemed to be arising, and he just smiled as he saw everyone around. He looked around the crowd, looking for a certain blonde-headed player. Soon he saw her, and he felt a small blush on his cheeks. It wasn't the same swim suit she had worn the last time they had been swimming together, but she was still beautiful all the same, and he felt himself growing redder and redder by the minute. He walked over quietly, calming himself down as he came behind her and covered her eyes

"Guess who?" He said playfully, kissing her cheek with a smile, then blushing as he realized she was already talking to a few people. He backed away slowly and rubbed the back of his neck quietly, avoiding eye contact

[Jomei 0]

The ginger's eyes scanned the invite, his lips curling into a soft smile. He had not know Kityuisa for long, but it seemed he left a good enough of an impression to be invited to her beach themed party.. unless it was an open invitation, of course. Despite, Jomei appreciated that he would be able to attend a gathering to see his friends, and other players he did not know, without having to fight off some giant boss. Stepping up to the tall wardrobe in his townhouse, the player opened the contents and scrolled through the menu, searching for his choice of attire for the occasion. Donning the deep green swim trunks and sleeveless green vest, Jomei set his course to the beach of the twenty fourth floor. 

There had been beaches that Jomei had visited in the past, one on Floor Eleven that had since been eliminated due to an update in the game, as well as the volcanic beach of the eighteenth floor. Floor twenty four, however, provided the optimal beach experience. The temperature was warm, with a cool breeze to keep players from feeling too hot, the sun constantly shining above them, and water taking up more of the floor than islands scattered about. If not for Kit's invitation including the whereabouts of her party, then Jomei would have quite a difficult time pinpointing the exact location. Nonetheless, Jomei finally arrived at the gathering, where other players were already present and conversion. Many of them, Jomei did not recognize. However, the few that he did recognize he was happy to see; Hikoru, Ruby, and Kit herself. "Quite a party you put together." Jomei said with a smile to @Kityuisa

[Hydravion 0]

Walking into the party was quite easy to do so for Hydra, looking around she smiled and was filled with happiness, It seems quite a few people she knew came here. It also seemed that Hydra was alone at the time but that would surely change in a few seconds as Hydra saw the one person she was hoping to see here. Waving at @Ruby As Hydra made her way up to her, "Hello dear," She said standing next to Ruby before looking at the host of the party. "Hello there as well lady, a Nice place you got here, interesting for sure, Oh the name is Hydravion, but Toshiko or Aris is also fine," she said with a smile to @Kityuisa, Wearing her swimsuit was as wondrous as ever and Hydra had no trouble wearing it at all. Looking around a bit Hydra looked up from surprise a bit to see @Dustin as well, She waved at him with a smile before going back to Ruby and leaning a bit on her as she stood. "Well I would love to get some relaxing time with you Dear, so if you don't mind miss I would like to take her for a swim or something," She said with a smile to the host of the party.

[Sunova 0]

Hearing of something this nice and cool again Su never could sit calm and ignore it, for sure Haz would be here but probably also other people who she knew like Viggy and his girlfriend Krysta. Maybe there would be more people she knew but for sure these people would be there no matter what. Getting ready Su jumped from stone to stone on the way here, as hyper as ever as the small girl was getting to the teleporter and went to floor 24. Once there she kind of took a full-on sprint to the location of the party and once there smiled, "BEACH!!!!" she yelled out before joining the rest of the people with joy. Looking around she only remembered a few people standing out to her. With a smile and an evil plan, Su went up to them slowly.

Once close to @Vigilon and @Krysta , Su took both hands and poked Vig in the side without mercy. "Hello there!" She said with joy and a smile on her face. The short 4'9" girl, (although she would not call herself short and would hate it if people confused her for being even younger,) Stoot next to Vigilon and Krysta, "Did not forget about me right, your friend! of course, you did not, who would forget me... oh DON'T AWNSE THAT!" she said fast before smiling to the two as they seemed to already enjoy themselves quite a bit for sure. With people already getting here fast Su smiled and looked a bit around to see who was here. Looking to the other girl who she did not notice until just yet and smiled, "Hello there, I'm Sunova, Just call me Su like everyone does! and might you be?" Su asked @Astralin with a smile from ear to ear seeming to enjoy the beach and the world more than most people. With it seemed that Viggy was getting quite known with other people and most of them where girls, could it be was Viggy collecting a Heram in this game, "Quite the attention from Girls you got their Viggy, If I was interested in love I would be quite jealous for sure, But luckily I'm not and just here to tease the living hell out of people who I know!" She said with a smile and a wink to Vig meaning he was also one of her victims for sure.

[Dazia 0]

The activity in floor 8 had gotten tedious again, which meant one inevitable thing... Yinangi burst the door open, looking completely dissatisfied with the week so far. "I'M BOOOOOOOOORED!!!" Yup, there it was. "Don't you dare say-" Yinangi would say it anyway, just to spite Dazia in this moment. "Entertain me." Dazia sighed in a frustrated manner. Yinangi stood firm with her hands on her hips. "Oh, come on, nothing interesting has happened all week! Can you get your head out of the papers and maybe do something new, for a change, like, maybe going to this?" She said as she pulled out a flyer. Dazia would look at the flyer, which was spreading word about a beach party. "...Are you serious?" "Yes!" "No." "Aw, come on! it's an event, made by players! Monster issues? Barely any!" "Oh? but what about on the way there? It's on floor 24!" "Valna's going. She's higher level than us....and she's your sister..." Dazia sighed. There was no stopping Yinangi at this point, except for one way... "Let's settle this with rock paper scissors. I'm going to win this time!"

Once again, Dazia would find herself being dragged along by Yinangi. "Just how the hell did she know I was going with paper? It's inconceivable!" Valna would escort Dazia and Yinangi over to the beach event, and when they arrived, Valna would use the equip system to swap her gear. Dazia would do the same, and Yinangi would follow. Yinangi wore a one-piece white swimsuit, while Dazia wore a black-one piece swimsuit, but also a pair of short jean shorts. Valna looked over to Dazia. "Oh, come on, do you think you're not going into the water?" Dazia would look over to Valna, and notice that she was wearing a red bikini. "First of all, the shorts are until I go into the water. Two, you're actually going in that?" Valna shrugged. "Well, ok then, you do you...and I'll do me." The three players would then proceed to continue on to reach the other players at the party. Dazia, of course, would keep an eye out for Princess, for she would need to avoid her...

[Arabelle 0]

Claude buried his face in his hands. Arabelle crossed her legs and looked forward. Eyes narrowed, lip curled in disgust; an expression amounting to the same way one would look at trash. "Ara, ara? So that's how it is?" The small purple-haired girl crossed her arms and tilted her head in mock curiosity. Her foot tapped repeatedly against the floor and for a few moments, it was the only sound that could be heard within her room. Then she grew impatient. "Hey--" She leaned over the table with a sneer and she spoke, very quietly and calmly, "Look at me. Is this not enough for you? Am I not enough for you? That was what you had in your mind the whole time, huh? I am disappointed... truly."

 

The offending object lay in the table between them. 

 

--And he finally found the voice to speak.

 

"You were the one who pressured me into buying you a growth potion!"

 

"Well, I don't want it anymore! Get it out of my sight!!"

---

That... did end well, but now her scout was off on a rare trip with his guild leader on one of the lower floors. Meaning he would entirely miss the beach party that had been the top gossip among info brokers and excited players alike recently. Meaning it would be much easier to breeze through the rotations without care. Wait, what? Arabelle tilted her head and tried to grab at the fading thought, but her attention was taken by the rustle of the curtain behind her being pulled to the side. "Oh!" Blue flats topped with a decorative white ribbon clicked against the wooden floor of the changing room as she twirled around, making a show of her white see-through dress' flowing skirt. Visible underneath was a striped bikini that matched the color of the ribbon in her hair. She stopped and stepped forward with an alluring smile, tracing a finger up the side slit in her skirt which reached all the way up to the waist. "Like what you see, Shiro-chan?"

 

Claude wasn't with her today but as per his request, his uhhhh- sister was. Kind of odd. Usually it was her asking him if she could drag Mishiro around - not that neither of them needed permission. But the last few months had been different and her best friend was in that weirdly silent state. Again. Something was wrong. Claude noticed it. Arabelle noticed it too, eventually. But neither really knew what. It. Just. Wasn't. Open. To. Discussion. S i g h. Perhaps today would be a nice chance to unwind. Take her friend's mind off whatever it was bothering her. 

 

"But out of all people..." The small purple-haired girl eyed the other's daring attire with a coy smile. "You're the one I most expected to hear whining about immodesty. No concern over here though, you look lovely. Putting yourself out there for a change?" 

 

Before Mishiro could hesitate, she took her by the hand and led her out of the changing stall. Stepping out into the sunlight, the swimsuit-clad girl grinned upon recognizing a few of the people who had already arrived. The host, she didn't know personally but would definitely introduce herself to later. Then Vigilon and his pretty girlfriend, the blonde from the Christmas event who called her cute, and... Dustin! She smiled and tugged her friend forward, approaching the boy who was dressed in a... very appealing swimsuit. She never took her stare off of him, even as she reintroduced the two. "Dustin, Mishiro. Mishiro, Dustin. Remember each other now? Good, now you're friends!" There were at least a few steps missing in between, but Arabelle clapped her hands together cheerfully anyway. "You look good in that, sugar. Definitely getting my vote for the contest later!" She sent him a wink. And then she backed away, letting go of Mishiro's hand. "Talk. I have to send a message real quick. Be right back!"

 

Retreating to an area with less party goers, she pulled up her PMs and sent a message - something she really should have done earlier, after Mishiro herself refused to send him a message.

Beach party at Floor 24. Shiro-chan's here with me. I know something happened with you guys. But if you keep passing up chances, you'd find it harder to come by them further down the road. Consider it another piece of advice from your wingwoman! ;)

[Alec 0]

The day of Kit's party had come and Alec wasn't sure what he should do. The large heavily muscled man had accepted the invite on pure reaction and as soon as he'd the accept button he had instantly begun second guessing himself. He was likely to know next to no one there except for Kit and Bahr of course but those two would both be inundated with people so Alec would most likey find himself alone except for Humphrey and would that be such a bad thing the large man thought to himself as he made his way to the Twenty Fourth Floor and the indicated area of where Kit's house was located. As Alec approached he once more had a twinge if apprehension. What did he even have to talk about with most of these, his eyes widened as the scene came into view, kids do many of them were so young. Yup, here he was the old man at the high school party, move over McConaughey Alec thought mildly disgusted by himself. He was the dad showing up to the kids party the buzz kill. Why was he even here again he thought to himself as his feet carried him forward while his mind revolted and fought him the whole way. Alec made his way to the edge of the party his hands stuffed deeply into the pockets of his dark blue swim trunks with off white Hawaiian flowers printed on the bottom and his white unbuttoned shirt flapping in the wind as his gaze passed over the crowd his perpetual scowl affixed firmly to his stern features as his told in those event solidified itself. He was the watchful parent here to endure no trouble cane to these children while they had fun the large man thought to himself. Humphrey had other ideas as the young American black bear cub raced straight for the surf and began charging and jumping and splashing in the open water and soft wrt sand letting out growls of happiness as he played.

[Fuyuno 0]

Today's the day! Fuyuno was excited for the beach party that Kityuisa was hosting, especially since her friend Athena had helped her get a swimsuit in preparation. On top of that, the woman had even agreed to help her reach the 24th floor via teleport gate, since the girl couldn't use them herself. I gotta hurry so I'm not late! With that determined thought she left her inn room on the first floor and headed for the center of the «Town of Beginnings»  for the teleport gate plaza. As she arrived she saw Athena waiting for her with a kind smile, and upon reaching the woman she smiled brightly back up to her. With Athena taking the lead, the two walked into the teleport gate, and as Fuyuno held onto the woman's shirt she heard her call out the name of the city where Kityuisa's party was going to take place.

Once the overflowing light faded from her vision, a dazzling city with an ocean view came into sight. The girl looked all around with eyes sparkling, then remembered that Athena had someplace to be. Walking away from the teleport gate, she smiled and waved to her friend in both thanks and good-bye. After Athena waved back and then teleported again, Fuyuno began taking in the scenery once more. She couldn't wait to get the chance to explore this new city more, but before she lost herself in that thought she had to remind herself why she was there.

I'm here because Kityuisa is throwing a party and it sounded like fun! This is also a perfect excuse to see her again after she helped me a few days ago; one where I can be sure I'm not bothering her! Solidifying her train of thought, she looked around once more to figure out which way to go. She didn't know anything about this floor, and it only just hit her that she hadn't thought ahead far enough to find out how to get to the party from the teleport gate. Just as she was lamenting this, she noticed some players wearing swimsuits leaving the city. She figured that they must be going the same way she was, so she decided to follow along where she saw them going. Eventually this led out of city limits, and when she saw the system notice tell her she had left the safe-zone she got a bit scared. Here she was, a very low-level player with her weapon and armor unequipped, walking outside the safe-zone of floor 24! As the fear of mortality slowly started to creep its way up her back, she noticed that some of the players around her were getting rid of any mobs that came close. Oh! They must be making the trip safer for everyone else! That means I don't need to worry! With confidence in safety restored, she happily followed the crowd down the beach.

The farther out of the city Fuyuno got, the more players she saw. Wow, there's so many people here! Kityuisa must be really popular to have this many friends come to her party! Oh! Maybe I'll get to see Kirbs or Krysta! That would be really nice, she thought to herself as she began looking around the crowd excitedly for any familiar faces.

She starts with her swimsuit in her inventory, so no pictures until she changes. It's a secret for now.

[Teion 0]

"You ready to go?" Teion called past the cracked bathroom door. She was almost finished affixing a sparkling silver hair clip beside the bundle of violet hair that had been pulled up so as not to fall past her shoulders. A simple black bow was tied up against the back of her neck, the straps of her swimsuit looping around to one thick band across the middle of her back. Some white, ruffled trim around around the edges, with her bottom half sporting a matching piece. At least half of it was covered up, however, by the wrap she wore tied around her wait, the draped cloth a mixture of reds, oranges, and whites that reminded her of a gorgeous sunset. As Teion stepped out into the large master bedroom of Ryo's estate she also grabbed a deep red half-length jacket and pulled the piece on to cover her shoulders. She couldn't help but frown. The beach was great, but a party was less so.

Still, it had been too long since she and Ryo had been out to enjoy themselves with actual company. In fact, she could hardly recall any such events outside of hanging out with his guildmates every so often. It had been months now since they started going steady, and once she spotted him in the room she made her way over and planted a quick kiss on his cheek. "I haven't asked if anyone we know is going." She shrugged. "We might have to actually go out and socialize." Her expression twisted into a playful grimace. She'd finally agreed to start spending her nights at the mansion with him rather than holed away in her blacksmith shop, but she was just starting to feel cooped up. As luxurious as a mansion was, it started to get a bit lonely when only she, Ryo, and Pennyworth were around to fill the space.

@Ryo

[Ryo 0]

Ryo quickly stepped out of the bathroom, plain black trunks and a dark A-shirt adoring his body. "Ugh, socializing? You mean I gotta talk to, people?" He said teasing. "Here, help me with my hair." He said, trying to get the long mess into the sociable beach party standard. As he had never really styled his hair before, other than just a ponytail, he had difficulty trying to get it to do what he wanted it to do. After that was all said and done, he thanked Teion. "Thanks darling. What would I do with you?" He said, teasing again before gently grabbing Teion's chin and pulling her into a kiss. "C'mon, I don't wanna be late."

Making their way to the site of the party only a small handful of people had arrived. A few seemed intent on helping out, while others stood around conversing with each other waiting for events to happen. "Oh hey, I see Jomei." He said, giving Teion's hand a gentle squeeze. He approached the ginger man throwing  "Hey Jomei!" He said throwing an arm around the man almost cutting him in two with it. "Good to see ya' again! Been a while. You never call, you never write, Teion and I are so worried sick." He said, joking. "Oh hey who's this?" Ryo asked in regards to @Kityuisa. He leaned up to Jomei's ear, as much as he could with Jomei towering an extra 10 inches taller than him. "Am I gonna have to tattle to Tel?" He said, joking again.

[Jomei 0]

Jomei smiled at Ruby as she approached the two of them, "Hey Ruby. Yeah I know, its been awhile, last time I saw you was the boss fight.. and even then I don't think I had the chance to speak with you much." he shrugged his shoulders, "And nothing much new, how about you?" Moments after speaking with Ruby, he felt an, at first, gentle arm around his waist. For a short moment, he thought that it was Telrenya who had arrived slightly later than he did. However, he was very much mistaken, and he realized it as the arm tightened around his waist, pulling him into the shorter, purple haired man in the process. "H-Hey Ryo." Jomei said with a slightly struggled voice. The man was not able to get much of a reply in as Ryo hit him with a couple more questions, and then took notice of Kityuisa. "W-What? No of course not.. This is Kit-yu... This is Kit." Jomei said with a slight pink hue to his cheeks, not because of Ryo's playful assumptions, but because of his struggling over his friends own name because of his accent. "She's the one that put together this party." Jomei finally turned towards both Ryo and Teion with a friendly smile, "It really has been a long time since I've seen either of you either.. Sorry, I haven't really been out much lately. It's good to see you both."

[Huginn 0]

Shiro was out getting some food for him and Katsumi, his new best friend. They had formed a familial bond over the last few days and Huginn was taking care of her for a bit. Except for the fact that Shiro had no idea what he was doing, they were gettin along great. As he dropped the pouch of col on the counter and picked up the tray of food, he spun around and placed them in his inventory, walking out of the shop to see her beautiful smile. She was chasing Felli around like a butterfly, and it put a soft smile on the boy’s face. Suddenly, a loud ding of a nessage yanks Shiro’s attention away from the girl and his familiar.

Beach party? He looks down at his body, Mishiro’s there? He thinks for a moment, but when he reaches the moment he decided to just ditch her in the woods, he gets truly angry at himself. His hand comes up and punches the wall behind him. In the real world a broken hand a girlish whimpering would’ve followed suit, but this was a game, and his hand didn’t break.

He looks around making sure the commotion didn’t draw that much attention before he walks over and picks up Kat, setting her on his shoulders as they walk through town. He was planning on showing her the beaches today anyways, and this would give him a chance to say sorry to Mishiro for what he did. “You ready to see the beach Kat?” He asks playfully up to her. “Yay! The beach!” She replies loudly and happily.

He finally makes it to the party and Kat flips down to the ground from his shoulders, sitting next to the rock to watch for anyone approaching while Shiro walked behind the rock and changed in an instant.

Peering around the rock he smiled as Katsumi took her job very seriously. She had her arms crossed, her chest puffed out and her face looking as angry as she could get it to. All except for a smile, which they shared. He walks out and reaches out to grab the little girl’s hand as he makes his way into the designated party area. This is gonna be exhausting.

[Bahr 0]

Bahr's eyes narrowed to a half squint as he took in the scene. It was a veritable who's who of inappropriate skin revelation. Hottest Character: Aincrad Edition. How was it possible that every person trapped in this game had the bod of a god or goddess? Though, he supposed that wasn't true, either. Nobody here could hold a candle to Aphrodite.

A twitch. A squirm. He didn't really want to be there. There were a few inalienable truths that Bahr held himself to, one of which being that when the going gets weird, the weird turn professional. That being said, it had never gotten weird enough for Bahr, and even this soiree of fakers and jokers failed to tickle the funny bone just right. But it wasn't all bad. Bahr had never seen much point in getting heavy with stupid people or Jesus freaks, just so long as they didn't bother him. In a world as strange and cruel as this one they had made for themselves, he figured anybody who can find peace and personal happiness without ripping off somebody else deserved to be left alone. They would not inherit the earth, but then neither would he... And he had learned to live, as it were, with the idea that he would never find peace and happiness, either. But as long as he knew there's a pretty good chance he can get his hands on either one of them every once in a while, he did the best he could between high spots.

And so he stood. And waited. Fighting his every instinct to turn tail and flee the party before it had even truly began. Out of the corner of his eye he spotted @Alec, another such poor wandering soul lost amidst the sea of tumultuous teenage hormones and unrelenting bottled angst, simply leaning back and enduring the tide as it rose and fell as awkwardly and out of place as Bahr. He meandered over to the monolithic individual, fists shoved into the pockets of the hoodie he had adorned, eyes scanning the rest of the patrons of the event in unison with that of his larger friend.

"Glad I'm not the only one who seems a little out of place. This place has got a weird energy to it."

[Cordelia 0]

Cordelia sighed in content as she felt the warm sun rays beat down on her skin. It's been absolute ages since she's been to a beach, and whew- did she miss it.

Throwing her long hair behind her shoulders, she let out a small sigh as she stretched her stiff arms. God, she really needed this. She didn't know why, though. Maybe it was just from stress from... y'know, being stuck in a literal video game. Or maybe it's because she felt a lot safer? Or maybe paranoia was coming to bite her in the ass again? Wait, where was she going with this?

Maybe she should just stop stressing. Honestly, that would make life way easier, right?

Her onyx eyes swept across the player filled beach. Hot damn, she didn't realize this many people were coming. Ah, shoot. She barely knew anyone here, too, maybe she didn't know anyone at all! Cordelia sweat dropped as she searched the faces of every single person.

Don't know you. Don't know you. Oh, definitely do not know you. 

Maybe she should've spent some time actually meeting people.

Well, shoot.
