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.

Re: 7!

[Ah, oops. When Sayo heard Kashuu's voice, he immediately realised what just happened and feel a little apologetic about it. Only the seagulls deserved to get a seashell thrown at them.]

...It was me.

[At least Sayo looks a bit... sheepish? Apologetic?]

Sorry. It was supposed to hit the seagull.

[adornmental]

[At least Sayo understands his GRIEVOUS MISTAKE... Kashuu can't stay mad at the tiniest revenge tantou for long, anyway, so a mildly irritated look is about the worst he'll have to weather.]

Why were you trying to hit a seagull, huh?

[LIKE OKAY, SURE, SOUNDS LEGIT but why.]

[reprizesal]

[If When Sayo wants revenge, he only do it to the right people. Or things. He raise his hand and points at the offending bird. Birds. There's more than one nearby...]

Because they're troublesome thieves.

[THAT ONE TRY TO GET HIS PERSIMMONS.]

[adornmental]

[He glances over in the direction Sayo's pointing and-- oh, those really are quite a few seagulls, huh...]

...If you don't eat near them it should be fine, I think. Just like, keep under some cover.

[Look at them just hanging out with their little beady red eyes, though. THEY'RE A DANGER. He feels menaced.]

[reprizesal]

They can fly and try to follow me.

[He can't trust those birds to stay away from their spots. Look at their faces and hear those taunting caws.]

[adornmental]

[They're both concerned about seagulls, but it's not silly if it's for a good reason, right...]

What about the beach house? You can sit in there, right?

[Not ideal if Sayo wants to actually be out on the beach, though...]

[reprizesal]

I can, but I also want to go out as well.

[Sayo doesn't want to stay cooped up inside for the entire trip. He's been indoors for more than long enough before his manifestation.]

And I don't trust them to leave.

[adornmental]

They probably won't.

[The tragic life of a beach-goer, being stuck perpetually in seagull hell.]

Maybe you can just... I dunno, make an umbrella fortress or something?

[reprizesal]

An umbrella fortress...

[He looks like he's considering the idea.]

Do we have enough umbrellas for it?

[adornmental]

Sure! [He says, without even looking around to make sure...] We just need to borrow them.

[Easier said than done, considering most of the largest umbrellas belong to the fussy swords?!]

[reprizesal]

[Just as long they avoid taking the umbrellas belonging to master, his brothers and Kasen. Otherwise, everyone else's are fair game.]

Yeah. We can return them later.

[The threat of the seagulls is a good enough explanation, right.]
