VACATION IS WHERE I WANNA BE


BEACH VACATION MEME
Summer begins, and the saniwa's army earns a well deserved vacation. All expenses paid for by their organization, from travel to lodging to food, and yes, even the swim wear and toys. The water is blue, the skies are (mostly) clear, and it's time to have some fun at the beach! Watch out for the jellyfish and KBseagulls.

***Feel free to include some prompts in your top level. If you can't think of any, pick from below for some ideas!**


001.IN THE WATER This is why you're here, right? Take to the water and splash around. Now might be a good time to learn to swim if you don't already. But watch out! Here comes a large wave--!

002.SANDCASTLES This is it... the enemy's stronghold... not! It's a race against the clock to build a castle before the tide comes in. Collect those seashells, fortify your fortress, and don't be a jerk and ruin some else's castle.

003.
SUNBATHING or maybe you've opted to sit under the shade of a large umbrella instead. Some times it's good to just sit back, relax, and watch to make sure no one needs to be rescued later. Keep an eye on the tide or you might find yourself getting wet anyway.

004.
BEACH ANIMALS There are tiny fish in the tide pools, crabs crawling around, and uwah are those sea turtles?! Tsurumaru, put that octopus down right now. Ouch, did that jellyfish get you?
And look, over there! That's a dolphin! You know, dolphins are intelligent creatures and have been known to help people-- WAIT NO ITS A SHARK ITS A SHARK NOT A FRIENDLY FISH IT LOOKS LIKE A DOLPHIN BUT ITS A SHARK.

005.
MELON SLICING The organization has been kind enough to provide food and drink as well. They must have felt very clever sending all of those watermelons, though. Really, who needs that many watermelons? It's a competition to see which sword is the True Melonslasher.

006.
STORM Those clouds came in so quickly, you barely had a chance to notice. The sky is dark, the rain is pouring down, and the wind is blowing cold. It's time to quickly collect your things and try to find some place dry.

007.
KBCGULLS. Oh no, who fed the seagulls? They're circling around like vultures and making swoops at you, trying to steal your food. Hey, wait, that's not even edible! Was it just you or was there an evil glint in that bird's eye just now...?

008.BEACH PARTY. All of those watermelons you sliced earlier are being put to use. The sun is setting, the food is out, and a bonfire is going on the beach. Eat your heart out and dance around the fire. Watch the sunset, look at the stars, this sure is nice, isn't it?

009.WILDCARD.
Mix and match. Create your own prompt. Find the dragon king's palace or something.

[ haru has earned this break, surely. he's earned a few hours of sun and sand, especially since it's--like many of his spirits--his first actual time to the beach. what can he say, he's from a tiny rural town and he grew up poor. and it's not like his parents were interested in taking their kids anywhere. despite all that, haru can actually swim, so he's out in the water on a float. he's also slathered in sunscreen, given his fair complexion, and there's a pair of cheap sunglasses hiding the fact that he's dozing.

tip the saniwa into the ocean if you dare. (he'll be roughly as entertaining as a wet kitten.) or.. you know, keep his float from going out to sea. whatever. ]


004.

Ah, look--

[ suddenly there is a crab in your face, angrily waving its claws and possibly plotting your demise. and.. there is haru holding it, a sunhat on his head and pale eyes very wide and fascinated. ]

Do you think if we catch enough we can cook them? [ haru no. ]


008.
[ away from the bonfires, near the edge of the tide, suddenly something lights up, sparkling against the evening backdrop. haru has brought sparklers and other small fireworks, and he's sharing them with anyone who seems interested, showing them how to use them.

at this point, it's clear he managed to get a little sunburned despite himself, but he looks obviously happier than his spirits have probably ever seen him.. at least for the moment. until tsurumaru starts chasing someone with sparklers or someone gets burned or some other minor disaster happens. ]


Oh-- no, don't-- [ his hands curl around the person's next to him, gently plucking the sparkler from them and turning it around. ] Like that. You light that end, and be careful not to burn yourself..


009.
[ wildcard me!! ]

[ Haru's assistance is a pleasant surprise. Amused at his own ignorance, Akashi can't help but chuckle. ]

Haha, whoops... The master is so reliable. Thanks.

[ And it's a good thing too, because judging from appearances also, there's no way Akashi could take care of himself. Now where did he put that matchstick... He's patting his pockets. Aizen didn't give him the whole box for some reason. ]
swordsitter: (dear boy what are you running from?)

[personal profile] swordsitter 2015-06-28 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
It's okay. This is your first time with fireworks, right?

[ of course it's natural that he might have trouble with them. but haru watches the spirit pat his pockets for several moments before sighing in fond exasperation. .. honestly.. a big brother that's more like a younger brother sometimes.. ]

Have you misplaced your matches?

[ thankfully, haru's at the ready, digging his own small box out and striking one, cupping his hand around the flame to keep it from blowing out too quickly. ]

[personal profile] lazing 2015-06-28 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
Kunitoshi gave me one but... Oh.

[ Nevermind. Haru's competent enough for the two of them. Although Akashi found his matchstick, he smiles and decides to keep it hidden in his pocket. ]

That's right; it's my first time. [ Being one of the newer additions to the citadel, there are many things he hasn't experienced for himself yet. A trip to the beach is one of them. ] Well, it looks like I ain't the only one.
swordsitter: (watch all the storms rising)

[personal profile] swordsitter 2015-06-28 05:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[ please don't use it to set anything on fire later, akashi. though that would probably require more energy and effort than you're willing to expend, so.. nevermind.... ]

No. It's my first time to the beach, too, believe it or not. [ some of his blades just automatically assume he's done everything it's possible to do because he's human, and then he has to remind them that he's only sixteen.. ] It's been fun, though. We'll have to come again when we have the chance.

[ he glances up as he lights the sparkler and shakes out the match, pale eyes finding the lanky spirit's. ]

Did you do anything but nap, though..?

[SUDDENLY, A CRAB. Sayo almost lash out to it, but he saw Haru before he do. With a blink, he looks up at the saniwa, and then back down at the crab.]

...I think so. Do you want to eat crab, Master?
swordsitter: (so follow me down to the river)

[personal profile] swordsitter 2015-06-28 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[ haru glances at the crab, then back to sayo, expression thoughtful. ] It might be nice. And it's not like we'd have to pay for these..

[ the real reason: haru is kind of a cheapskate. ]
reprizesal: (What do you wish for?)

[personal profile] reprizesal 2015-06-29 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
[Ah, being a cheapskate. Sayo understand that immediately and he nods.]

I can get more crabs for you. We might need a lot.

[Especially if the other swords want a bite as well...]
spes_phthisica: by nique (It's time to board another)

001 shhh you saw nothing

[Look, Souji doesn't mean to, okay? He's paddling around on his own float, dipping his head under the surface to watch the fishes swimming around underneath. A lazy version of snorkling, basically. But then suddenly there's the grinning face of some little rude brat right under the float, and it's tipped over.

Aaaaaaand Souji kind of flails enough to tip Haru into the sea with him.]


Tetsu- [Cough, splutter.] -kun! [Nope, the perpetrator has already made his escape. And oh god, is that some poor stranger he just soaked? Is he drowning?] I'm so very sorry! Are you okay?

[So these how the sparkle sticks worked. The warmth feels nice to his pale skin, and the sparkles look amazing in the dark of evening.]

Ah, this is a wonderful surprise.

[Like the overexcited child he is, Tsurumaru gives it a wave here and there, golden eyes fixed on the trail left just so momentarily.]

Mind if I have another one?
