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.]

Yep! Nel is Nel.

Who is you?

[keepsthefire]

I'm Rin! Nice ta meetcha, Nel!

[And big ol' teeth-showing dopey grin]

[tu_cute]

[Nel doesn't even blink at the teeth.]

Rin! That is not a name I heard before.

... are you a shinigami?

[Nel's experience is pretty much limited to shinigami and Hollows.]

[darkasnight]

You sure are!

Say, what's your name?

[keepsthefire]

Noooope! I'm a half demon.

[His tail even sways when he says that.]

[fourleafed]

I'm Yotsuba! What about you?

[tu_cute]

[A wise, understanding nod.

...]

What is that?

[darkasnight]

Yotsuba's a pretty special name. You can call me Night.

[proudsister]

Part of the crowd, actually. I live in the same place as all of these guys.

[ Liz sort of waves her hand in the direction of where everyone else is at, most of them seeming to be splashing around in the water. ]

From the same world as... well, just one of them, actually. The cute girl with the pigtails.

[proudsister]

Everything.

[ She actually holds up the bottle she was holding toward him. There was another in her other hand; this one was clearly meant for him. ]

Come on, don't you do that all day already? Take a break!

[secondcoolest]

Hold on, you're missing a bunch of it in the back.

[ Bon was a little delayed in his arrival. He'd had to pick up a few things before coming up (like, oh, swimming trunks. sun block. a blanket. umbrella...), after all. He sets the basket of things down before stabbing the umbrella into the sand, lays on the blanket, and finally turns toward her.

He's just going to casually take the hair tie from her hand before starting to work at gathering all of her hair. ]

[Anya looks over in that direction to watch them for a bit.]

I haven't figured out if it's more common to have someone else from your world or not. Some people seem to have quite a few acquaintances along.

[proudsister]

I have a few. A handful, really. I think the Villa is an exception; just about everyone living there is only from two places. A lot more people seem to only have one other person here, or no one at all...

[ :( ]

It's sad.

[dontyoujustwish]

Don't be silly.

I've been doing quite well for myself.

[proudsister]

Well, not for everyone then, I guess. Lotion?

[ Liz offers up the bottle of suntan lotion that she'd been rubbing into her skin. ]

[keepsthefire]

Uhh... well...

[...]

Huh. I'unno how to explain a demon to some one who doesn't know what a demon is.

[spiria]

A demon. A really cute one, though.

[dontyoujustwish]

Oh! Thank you, I always forget about that.

[She takes the offered bottle and starts to rub some on herself.]

You'd think after all this time, humans might have evolved not to have such delicate skin. Then again, at least we don't catch fire and explode into dust.

[tu_cute]

Nel is a Hollow.

[proudsister]

No, but sometimes it feels like it'd be easier than suffering the burn!

[ Seriously she's gotten some pretty bad burns before, when she was younger and less cautious. ]

I have a sister who would have way too much fun poking me.

[spacecase]

Hey! [Ah yes, excellent, the boyfriend is here.] I was wondering when you'd come around, I'm surprised you didn't get dragged up by Rin. [She would pretend to be affronted by his commandeering of the hair duties, but it amuses her more than anything.]

I wouldn't have taken you for much of a ponytail expert. [Dyeing and general hair care, yes that's to be expected, actual styling of longer hair not so much.]

[heartandsoul]

Ah!

[Oh hello there, small child!]

It's a book called Brave, something my mother gave to me before I started going to school.

[Awww, what a precious little thing.]

What's your name?

[heartandsoul]

Don't be a goof, you know that I love you, and that there's a bunch of different reasons why I'm with you.

[heartandsoul]

[Yeah but Maka's not going to hold it against him, just watch Pip approach to sniff at the man's hand--tail and ears twitching curiously.

Once Pip has determined that N doesn't have any explosives on him, she sits flat on the ground and stares up at him.

You're tall.

Intelligent commentary from the Pokemon.]

Pip usually likes sticking around, um, her "daddy."

[dontyoujustwish]

The burning sensation would be briefer, but much more fatal. I'm not a fan of fatal.
