VACATION IS WHERE I WANNA BE

[kametaro]

☼ 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'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]

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. ]

[lazing]

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]

[ 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..?
