high_seas | Beach party beach party

Who: Hazmat crew!
Where: Aquatica Paradise (and sailing to it if you'd like)
When: appx Sept 24-30 (or, for sailing, anytime the 14-23)
What: VACATION. They've had a rough summer so it's time for some downtime. There are water parks, beaches, and an obligatory onsen, so mix and mingle with the super-happy (and young and pretty) locals and have some fun!
Warnings: not likely
Style: anything you want
Status: closed to Hazmat crew only unless another crew is on the island?

[Gan Ning promised his ragtag crew a party, and by god, they were going to have a party. It might have been worth it to hold on Isla Empieza, to mingle with other crews there, but there wasn't much going on there to stick around for. He heard from someone in the harbor about this island and decided it would make a great place for a party.

Somewhere along the way Raphael disappeared, sadly, but the rest of them continued on. They had already put off partying for too many reasons - a poor showing in the race, other crewmates disappearing, Cynthia's rescue from the clutches of giant spiders, and so on. No more. This time, they were just going to put down anchor, hang out on the beach, make some ice cream, and have a good time. Besides, with Tsuzuki joining the crew, they had to show him that they knew how to stick together, right?

((ooc: for all your info needs the island is here. Date your threads in the header if you need!))

Oh, you mean the make shift fridge thing. Yeah, they're pretty useful. But I didn't think it'd be able to hold ice cream. You'd need a decent freezer for stuff like that or it'd melt...unless...

[ She maybe have amnesia. But she still remembers her pokemon, and that one of her pokemon cold actually create blizzards on demand. Cynthia didn't think it was useful outside battle. But it is now. ]

There's one flavor that I'd love for you to make. It's my all time favorite.

Had that much to work with, the rest was all good old creativity.

What flavor's that?

Mint chocolate chip. You said you had some mint already so that shouldn't be hard to make, right? Also white chocolate chip and razz berry swirl. But that might be a little too challenging since razz berries are impossible to get in this world

[ Nope, not raspberry. Razz berry, because the pokemon world is weird. Moving on. ]

That shouldn't be difficult at all. And I wouldn't say that this razz berry thing would be impossible either- probably take some time to get 'em, but if I'm remembering right, that Miss Margie can get just about anything.

Oh right, Miss Margie...yeah I nearly forgot about that store of hers. Next time we head to IE, I should remember to check for berries and poffins.

Seems to be the best idea. Haven't seen any announcements from her lately for her delivery service, anyway.

Yeah...

[ Now she felt a little awkward. Normally, it wasn't difficult for her to hold a conversation with Gaius. But with the gaps in her memory, she didn't really know him enough to know what else to talk about. ]

[Yeah, lapsing silence always made for awkward. Gaius scratches the back of his head with his non-popsical-stick-holding hand.]

Anyway, Gaius. I think I've been out in the sun long enough. I'll head back to the ship.

[ She gets off the rock she was sitting on and walks over to give him a good bye kiss on the cheek...and maybe steal a piece of candy from his pocket. ]

...unless you want to walk back with me?

Hm? Already? Well, I guess you've been out here longer than I have.

[Can't steal from a thief, but he'll let her take a piece cuz he's nice like that. He smiles lightly, brow arched.]

What was that for?

I don't mind walking back. Never been much for sand and sun.

[ For the record, she doesn't even know he's a thief. Just a really handsome ginger who smells nice and is, apparently, a very important person to her. It's a miracle she even knew about the candy in his pocket. ]

Because you're more of a sit in a dark corner funneling buckets of sugar into your mouth, right? But gosh, you could have fooled me. Didn't expect you to look good without a shirt on.

[ She playfully pokes at his stomach. With all the layers this guy wore, this was a rare treat for her. ]

Hah! Dark corners nothing! I don't know about you, but I'm not too crazy about sand getting everywhere, somehow. Kinda why I make it a point to try not to eat lollipops out here. Much as it might look like extra sugar-coating...

[And then he pouts as he's poked.]

Heeey.

Well I, for one, love beaches. I had a special sea side vacation home back in my world and I'd always spend my summers there just lounging around the beach, eating ice cream and doing absolutely nothing.

[ Sigh. Those were the days...she'll just poke him again. ]

Hey yourself, I'm not used to seeing this much skin on you, Mr. three layers and a cape.

Guess I'm just not that used to beach trips spent for real leisure. Fighting monsters kind of puts a damper on things. They seem to choose the strangest places to show up.

[He swats lightly at her hand.]

And pale as fresh-whipped meringue. Quit it!

[ It took a few seconds for that last sentence to sink in when... ]

Oh gosh, you are super pale! Aww how cute! I bet you burn easily too.

Not going to hang around to find out. We going back or what?

Fiiiine pasty, let's go before your candy melts.

[ She tries to sneak one more poke before popping the candy she stole into her mouth and heading towards the direction of the ship. It was such a nice day for a walk, really. Nice view of the horizon, good company to walk with, a questionable cloth wrapped around his arm...hold on.]

Uhm...Gaius?

[He twirls the popsical stick before sticking it between his teeth as they walk along.]

Hm? What's up?

What happened to your arm? Did you burn yourself?

[ She's giving you the worried look, pasty. ]

Burn myself?

[He blinks and looks at his arm.]

Oh, that. Nah, it's nothing, really.

It's not "nothing" if you have to cover it up, Gaius. What happened?

It's.... Well, it's just something from back home. Not something I want to flash around.

A scar?

Not quite. It's...a mark. Tattoo, I guess.

A tattoo? Of what?
