A beautiful summer day in Mayfield should never be wasted, even if they're all beautiful. So, why not stop by the pool for some food, drinks and games? And of course, swimming.

[Why hadn't Picky considered going to the pool before now? This is a great idea! Swimming was fun! Swimming was great!

...swimming in the shallow end of the pool is much safer than getting anywhere near the deep parts, though. So that's where Picky's splashing is being confined to.]

Hello mamzel. [ He looks down at her, his brows furrowed in vague confusion. ]

I have been to many parties before, but I never quite get how cheerful they are. Also, they lack enormous hats.

[photonicfighter]

Parties are a reason to relax and do things that you don't normally do. Which a lot of people consider fun, hm?

[Then her expression gets a little perplexed, her brow furrowing. It's as though they're playing confusion ping-pong. ]

...enormous hats? Are there supposed to be enormous hats?

[captainofthe10th]

Only sometimes.

[ His expression is very stoic, almost sad. ]

[photonicfighter]

I can't recall very many parties here that have had... hats...

[She'd be worried that he's being much too serious and something was wrong, but... it's Garviel. He's always serious. Always.

Best to be a bit more cheerful to compensate for it!]

Do you like to swim, Garviel?

[imjustpicky]

[Water balloons! YES! Could this party be any better?

Well, maybe if he could figure out who he should throw one at. Not anyone too nice. And not anyone too mean. So he's just sort of standing there, holding a filled balloon, paralyzed with uncertainty.]

[greyerrant]

I do not believe I have often been swimming.

[ he almost drowned once though. True story. ]

[Miku is taking advantage of today to dip her feet into the pool, humming to herself. After everything, it's rather relaxing to just sit here and hum music to herself, though she won't say no to someone who wants to hear her actually sing.]

[photonicfighter]

Ah... to be honest, me too. I've been to hot springs. And to the beach a few times... but I don't swim well.

[She looks awkwardly away.]

...I tend to sink.

[HEY LUKE EVER WONDERED WHAT THE BOTTOM OF THE POOL LOOKED LIKE

'CAUSE WE'RE CHILLIN' DOWN THERE RN]

[hatesboys]

That kid's been standin' there with a water balloon for five whole minutes.

[Aaaaand she's pointing at your brother, Pokey.]

[wrench_and_ruffles]

[Kaylee doesn't exactly do a lot of swimming, seeing as she lives on a spaceship. But she did spend plenty of time planetside first]

Have ya tried braidin' it?

Re: WATER BALLOON FIGHT

[heartisabattleground]

[Well Sora's definitely taking part in this! He's currently hiding behind a some large pot as he comes up from behind it, tossing a water balloon at someone.]

Heads up!

[wrench_and_ruffles]

[It had been a while since Kaylee managed to get out swimming. But it's always been a perk of planets]

Havin' fun?

[ceasetoexist]

[....Oh dammit Picky. Don't be such a nerd where the girl he likes can see it.]

...Well. You know. Look at the kid. It probably takes him twenty minutes to figure out a stop light has changed.



But he probably isn't entirely stupid.

[Death does intend to swim, but first she wants to just look around for a bit. She's humouring Booster by wearing the black bikini from the bikini cannon]

[cursedtolive]

Mr. Jacuzzi. [He moves over to give Jacuzzi more room in the shade. Thank god, a face he recognizes (he can see Elmer over there, so he'll go talk to him later, but a face he knows! Yeah!)]

Not as much as that shindig they held in July, but you're right. It's a big crowd. I guess pools do get popular when it's so hot out.

[greyerrant]

So do I.

[imjustpicky]

Yeah! [He bobs up and down in the water, nodding enthusiastically.]

Are you? Do you get to swim a lot usually, Kaylee?

[photonicfighter]

Is your skeleton very dense? Mine is.

[It's asked with a wide-eyed, straightforward lack of awareness as to how bizarre the question is.]

[greyerrant]

Yes, it is bonded with plasteks and some metals, and the bone structure is also reinforced, also, my muscles are very dense. I can take small caliber rounds without even breaking the skin.

[photonicfighter]

Ooooooh...

[She looks very impressed to hear that. And a bit awed, with a dash of delighted.]

Mine's a nanoceran alloy. The rest of me isn't nearly that dense... still. I don't float particularly well. It's a shame, it looks like it's a lot of fun, to swim...

[cursedtolive]

[Oh my god, are you going to throw that at him too?]

B-but now I'm completely soaked!

[roadroller]

[ WIN ALL THE CONTESTS!!

Honestly, being a robot isn't terribly conducive for swimming, so Rin enters this thing with gusto, singing and prancing around in her polka-dot bikini. It's good to have swimsuit regains. And it's something to do other than goof off in the shallows!

You guys better rate her high though. She is armed with a squirtgun. ]

[greyerrant]

Perhaps. It can be done, at least in my case, though the muscular effort is not insignificant.
