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!))

"Heh... Well, like I said, I was pretty invisible, keeping to myself mostly. I haven't been on a ship for a while, and ours is a lot smaller than the one I was on last." Cruiser line was huge, and he had gotten lost on it a few times. The Hazmats ship was much smaller, and he was much more aware of the motion of the boat. He wasn't sea sick, just wobbly on his feet... since he couldn't fly anymore.

"Cynthia, Gaius, Hiccup, Toothless, and Ariel... hm... I'll have to remember those names when I meet them." The mention of the galley distracted him, and he got excited... He hit the ball a bit hard and over Lea's shoulder. "You cook?! ...oops."

"Whoa!" Lea reached back to try to get the ball but it was too late. It bounced off the wall and ricocheted off the floor and Lea had to scramble to find it before he could serve it again.

"Anyway...yeah, I cook. Don't get too excited, though. I'm kinda on the mediocre side of mediocre."

He'd been slowly getting better at it, but there was only so much you could do when you were stuck in a ship's galley with no real access to good ingredients. There was fish. And eggs. And more fish. And more eggs. And then sandwiches. He'd cook chicken, but Brady would never forgive him.

"Sorry about that... I got a little excited. You see, I'm not allowed to cook till the world ends pretty much. Ahaha..." He returned the serve, telling himself not to loose his cool again. Once he got his pride back, he stopped looking so shamed.

"Well, I'm sure you're better than me. I'm pretty sure you should never let me in your kitchen, not that I really ever tasted anything wrong with my cooking. No one else seems to be able to eat it though..."

"Yeah, you're banned. Hands off the chocolate, too, unless you're paying."

He figured he should probably throw that one out there. He had enough trouble with Roxas eating his merchandise. He didn't need someone new adding to the problem.

"Though if you're paying, it's 4 doubloons a box. Crew discount."

[amethystsregret]

"Four a box, huh? I like discounts on sweets. I'll need it." He wasn't as big with chocolate alone, but if he needed a fix, it serve a purpose well enough. "Did you manage to get that discount yourself, or does chocolate go quick with the crew as a whole?"

[by_heart]

"Yeah, well, Gaius would probably give it out for free, but that's cutting into my profits. People don't quite get that I'm trying to run a business here."

It was a moderately successful business, to be sure, but it would be a whole lot more successful if people would stop eating the merchandise. And if his supplier didn't have the biggest sweet tooth on the ship.

[amethystsregret]

"Profits? Ah... I think I get what you mean. I've never had a head for money, but I know someone that does. I'll make sure not to put you in the red." He looked away from the ball for a moment. "I don't think I properly introduced myself. I'm Tsuzuki Asato. It's a pleasure to meet you."

"Lea. Got it memorized?" Lea gave him a smartass little wave. "Welcome aboard and whatever. Anyway, you trying to get out of losing this game?"

Priorities, he had them. Actually, he was being about as friendly as he ever was. You just had to adjust to his charming personality, that's all.
