take a day off | open

[darkasnight]

Who: Night & Villa people (and anyone who wants to crash)
Where: The beach on the island.
When: Backdated to Friday (8-16)
Style: Action/Prose
Status: Open

[One of Night's favorite past times was going up to the island to do a number of things: hunt small wildlife, toss around in flowers, and sunbathe. The normal life of a cat, really.

But after a few recent events he feels like maybe coming up to the beach, not just by himself, but with everyone else, could be a good thing. Who didn't love being out in the sun all day?

Which is just what he does, leaving most everyone in the Villa a message asking them to join him at the beach Friday morning. It isn't a party only because he has no idea what to do or bring for a party, but the intent was to have fun and relax.]

[Nothing she hasn't seen before, but a girl likes to look. Even with the arm over his face, Grimmjow might notice something suddenly blocking the sunlight. That something being Anya in a fetching black bikini and carrying a towel.]

I didn't expect to see you here.

[jagermeister]

I live here.

<sub>[He barely moves his arm off his face--just enough to give Anya a lazy stare with one eye. The heat was actually mellowing him out much more than the booze was.

...Jeeze, he really is an oversized cat, isn't he?]</sub>

Why're you here?

[dontyoujustwish]

I guess I'm party-crashing.

[She tilts her head down towards him to try to peer in his face.]

Were you napping?

[jagermeister]

Hn. I know one of the guys up here--Rin Okumura. He's over by the grills.

_{[Which he needs to raid later, but shhh.]}

Not really. Just relaxing.

[dontyoujustwish]

The cook with the tail?

[She'll have to head over there at some point herself. But right now, she's spreading out her towel nearby and having a seat.]

[jagermeister]

Yeah. He's been teaching me how to cook here and there.

_{[And surprisingly, Grimmjow hasn't killed anyone with food poisoning yet!]}

[dontyoujustwish]

Are you any good at it yet?

[jagermeister]

I haven't killed anyone yet. That counts for something, doesn't it?

[dontyoujustwish]

Haven't killed anyone with your food or out of frustration?

[jagermeister]

Both.

_{[It's a big deal for him!]}

[dontyoujustwish]

It may count for something to someone, but until I get delicious, effort-free food out of it, that someone isn't me.

[jagermeister]

Effort-free, huh?

_{[He hums softly and moves a bit so he could prop himself up on his elbows.]}

I can go snag somethin' outta the woods if you're that hungry.

[dontyoujustwish]

At least on my part.

[She looks over at him, already leaning on hers.]

Out of the woods?

[jagermeister]

Isn't that why they have take-out?

Yeah. We got the grill over there and I know there's a few deer running around in there. I even snagged a bear the week before that last curse.

[dontyoujustwish]

You get tired of take-out.

...you're going to grill me an entire deer?

[jagermeister]

If you get the same thing every day, yeah.

Think you can eat one on your own? I can probably snag a runt if the bigger ones are too much.

[dontyoujustwish]

And the part where you have to go out and pick it up.

I think an entire deer would last me for weeks. But if you can put that away somewhere in your lack of innards, then we'll do just fine.

[jagermeister]

Delivery.

_{[That gets a grin.]}

You'd be surprised at how much I can eat. Hell, even what I used to eat before I got this body.

[dontyoujustwish]

Aren't souls a lot less, well, tangible than venison?

[jagermeister]

For the most part, but I used to eat my own kind though after souls quit sustaining me. Not all Hollow were small like I was.

_{[Well, small to other Hollow. He was about half the size of a human in his adjuchas form at the shoulder.]}

You remember that white panther I was turnin' into during that curse? When I looked human?

[dontyoujustwish]

Of course. That's when I found out you purr.

[jagermeister]

I don't purr.

_{[Yeah, he'll keep denying it even when he does it.]}

Picture that form, twice the size. That's how big I was before I got this body. Now take that size, multiply it by five or six and you've got an average Hollow in that class. I used to eat them. _{[He flashes a grin.]} Now if I couldn't eat a deer, I'd be pretty ashamed.

[dontyoujustwish]

Would it help if I told you it was sexy?

[She sits up, looking down at him and trying to imagine this.]

It must be like a black hole.

[jagermeister]

I ain't against a compliment, but I still don't purr.

Black hole?

[dontyoujustwish]

It's sexy that you purr.

[Take that how you will.]

A collapsed star with such intense gravity that it sucks everything nearby into itself.
