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. |

For a ship such as I, this is nothing! [ So she says, but she'll be getting a stomach ache latter. ] Carbs for wood! Caffeine and fats for engines! Protein for steel! [ There's protein in there? ] You need all of this if we're going to make it to the next island to beach! [ She's practically preening being able to divulge her "knowledge". ] Feast your eyes! [ GET IT, GET IT, feast your eyes?? ] For I'll be eating all of this within ten seconds. Oh, unless Mister Sword would like a bite...? [ And she does say 'mister' there, if only because she was first built in England before going to Japan. ]
no subject
[A QUICK DENIAL...
But beyond how absolutely gross that monstrosity of a beach food looks, there also doesn't seem to be any way to eat it elegantly. Part of the reason he replaced the graham crackers with cookies is because cookies are sturdier and reduce the chance of marshmallow and chocolate spillage!! There's no way he'd be able to avoid that if he tried to tackle this thing...]
Anyway, if you went through all the trouble of making that, shouldn't you... I dunno, enjoy it? Why ten seconds? [Why any of this??]
no subject
But that's part of the challenge! [ Do u even navy, bro? They don't brag about any size but the size of their ship and the fish they catch, going on to talk about beers and barnacles and trying to one-up each other all the time. Obviously. ] OOookay~! Here goes-- [ She lifts up the concoction, raising it as if it is a tribute to the sun. ] Three, two, one--!
[ CHOMP.
Chomp, chomp, chomp.
Chomchompchompchompchompchompchomppppp--
All dainty, bite-sized tiny 'chomps', actually, so petite and quick, it may seem as if she's nibbling at the entire thing. But no, no, despite the size and the polite mannerism of her bites, it's fast and without a mess. Within eight seconds, she's done. ] Aaah! That's how you do it. [ She makes a V-sign with her hands oh so proudly. Give her a moment, she'll become sick to her engines soon. ]
no subject
Instead, she just gets an incredulous look... What just happened here??]
...I mean, that's— [?!?!] I guess if that was a challenge, you would've won?
[But what would she have won... An oncoming stomach ache, apparently.]
How d'you even eat like that?
no subject
[ She stretches, and then looks him over. ] But no offense, you look like you could use more meat on your bones. [ Not that he would get said meat from something like this. ]
no subject
All of this ship talk is sailing right over his head though, oops. Maybe she intended for all of that talk of boilers and sustenance to be impressive, but all he's getting from it is "ships are fattydingdongs who eat a lot"... At least she managed to be elegant while scarfing something down at mach 5! Now that's something to be impressed by.]
There're bottled drinks in the cooler if you need some. ["Need", because he can't imagine anyone could consume all of that sugar without being thirsty...
EXCUSE, THOUGH.] Wh— I look fine!! Being all bulky and muscular isn't cute at all, y'know! [...] And eating too many sweets would just make me fat, anyway. [IT WOULD NOT but Kashuu is cautious just in case okay, you never know.]
no subject
[ And that doesn't seem right. Not for him, at least. Since he's got a sharp look.
Ba-dum-tish. ]
no subject
BUT WHO WANTS TO BE A BROADSWORD not Kashuu... He quite thinks he's the perfect size just the way he is!! The proud air he's suddenly posturing with would probably look a little more impressive if he didn't still have a handful of cookie s'mores, but hey, close enough.]
Ex-act-ly! I'll leave that kinda showing off to the oodachi. [Waving the s'mores around emphatically!] You don't need size to be impressive.
no subject
Hm, hm, so you're saying, but all I see is a still-unfinished cookie-s'more in your hand. [ She points out, as if making and/or eating s'mores is a talent for only AMAZING sword/battleships/other humanized things. ] If you're so impressive, let's see what you got.
[ Is there rum or sake around? There should be rum or sake around. She thinks she needs a drink to see what twiggy here can do. ]
no subject
What, you want me to eat it in ten seconds? No way. [He can't eat that gracefully!! Tragically, that is a superhuman talent that's passed by his door.
Tragically for her, there isn't any rum or sake around, either! At least not in this beach bum's cooler. He just has stupidly expensive bottles of artisan water and fancy fizzy lemonade.]
