Beach party beach party

[youhearthebells]

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!))

Hm! I guess that's a guy thing. Ladies are a lot smarter than us. I think I have heard some of the ladies back home moan at the men around the office.

[He just went on smiling because Wakaba and Chisae were pretty strong in their own right, but they still got on men for their recklessness. He wouldn't have them any other way.]

Um... I think it was a bell.

[What was he whispering for?]

[anelegantmyth]

Flattery won't get you anywhere with me, dear. It's best you know that now. Never worked with any of the boys and it ESPECIALLY never worked whenever Ning would try it to get booze money.

[ The took her back to when she first met him, ahh such fond memories. ]

What was that? Did you say "a bell"?

[amethystsregret]

Flattery? I guess it does sound like that when I say it out loud. Just making an observation on my part though, really. I tend to think out loud sometimes, and it makes me sound like an air-head. I'll remember to not try sucking up though future reference though. Hm!

[He wondered if Gan Ning wanted her to remember this or not. He didn't want to miss out on that bar hopping. He had a feeling he would need it in the months to come. The extended vacation could only be fun for so long after all...]

[If she wasn't going to whisper, he would just keep his voice down then.]

He mentioned that we weren't hurting for money because you were good with money and hunting for treasure. He used a gem covered bell to prove how good you were. Does that sound familiar to you?

[anelegantmyth]

Ooooh that bell! The diamond encrusted one right?

[ Oh that brought back such fond memories ]

That wasn't treasure. Well, it's probably worth as much as treasure. But I went to a jeweler and had it made specifically for him. That was the first time I found treasure in this world. So I got it for him as a thank you preset for believing in my wild hunch.

[amethystsregret]

Yeah, that one! He told me about it.

[He would leave out the part about how the man chipped off gems to buy booze. It didn't seem an appropriate thing to say about a present.]

That was generous of you. You must see him as a good friend to have such an expensive gift made for him. You do enjoy treasure hunting though, don't you? He made it sound like you were very good at it when we were at the onsen together.

[anelegantmyth]

I used to spend my days ruin hunting and researching about mythology back home. Whenever I'm not training anyway. So I know a thing or two about finding treasure. But, to be honest, finding most of that treasure was pure luck.

[amethystsregret]

You like mythology? It was a bit of a hobby for me back in my world. It helped me get to know some of my friends better actually. What kind of myths does your world have, if you don't mind me asking?

[Curious as a cat, and nosy as a puppy. He looks like a little kid waiting for a story.]

[anelegantmyth]

Well mythology in my world is not really "here are stories of what people from the time before believed in" and more "here are records of creatures that no one's seen in a while". Those creatures being legendary pokemon, and the thing is, I've actually met a few of those creatures myself.
