date 1 - beach group b

[snackcakeordeath]

🍰 You're here at the beach🏖️ with some of the people YOU rated the 🔥hottest🔥 in town, so get ready for your chance to make a summer memory that'll last forever☀️!

🍰 It's up to you to create the 💖best date ever💖. Pick your special someone or someones and find an activity to really wow 'em!

🍰 If sun and surf🏄 doesn't float their boat, then make your move during that gorgeous sunset, or around a bonfire in the evening--timing and activities🦈 are up to you.

🍰 You'll need a public thread with all of your teammates where at least 1 thing is done as a group👫👬. Feel free to have any number of additional threads, public or private, with individual or groups of teammates; the extra effort should pay off with both your datemates and your hosts. Assume that everyone has opportunities to be 💑alone👩‍❤️‍👩🏽 with each other person.

🍰 At the end of the dates💕, you'll play Marry💍/Kiss💋/Kill☠️ on your datemates. Rate your dates✌️🖕 and you're free to go--but remember, they'll be rating you, too😨🤞. Hopefully you pulled out all the stops for all your dates!😎⚰️

🍰 Need some activity suggestions?
+ Swimming, snorkeling, or surfing🏄
+ Kite flying, beach volleyball, or burying someone into a sand castle🐚
+ Scary stories, sparklers, or s'mores over the bonfire🎆
+ Don't forget suntan lotion, you wouldn't want your poor datemates to burn!👒

🍰 At the end of the day, vote here.

You were on a ship, huh? I lived in a port town myself, but we didn't get much traffic 'til lately. The mouth of the river was a mess with silt and stuff.

[fastandloose]

Snorkeling, huh? Never tried it.

[she says in a tone of voice that says in fact she does not know what that is but doesn't really want to admit it]

[fastandloose]

[unfortunately brooding Hot Topic children are actually most her type. plus she has low standards.

though she does give him a look at the clothes given that they're at a beach.]

Yeah, that's not bad either.

[fastandloose]

Distribute things evenly, huh...

[she sounds a little disappointed.]

[you_like_ike]

Making the water safe for us.

[Drops the shark onto the sand. Then drops down to sit on the sand near it, mildly bloody and tired.]

Besides, we can all share it. For dinner, we can put it up over a fire.

[you_like_ike]

It was safer than land travel at the time. At least until we had to deal with pirates.

So this water is a lot clearer? I wonder how deep it goes around here.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[just shakes his head]

Our hero. We won't be able to complain about the freshness, either, though we should probably put it on ice. ...You might need ice, too; you're bleeding. You didn't get bitten by dinner, did you?

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[if he notices, he doesn't do anything in particular to acknowledge it]

There's a first time for everything. If you swim, it doesn't take too long to get the hang of using the snorkel, and the water's clear enough that there should be plenty of sea life to see even without getting too far from shore. Of course, if you're not a swimmer, you'll probably want to try something else instead.

[Glances down at his leg Yeah, there's a few teeth marks.]

A little bit.

[It's only a few HP lost.]

[streetwolf]

I will, just not here. And I'm not just going to toss them on the ground...

[Looks over at Ike.]

[streetwolf]

If one group messes up then it doesn’t affect us now. But they could make us swap later, right?

[He’s nodding, he gets it.]

If they want to kill me here then I’m going to screw’em over as many times as I can first.

[streetwolf]

[All these fashion disasters about to happen.]

[streetwolf]

[Then there's Wayne whose just changed and is already back, now willing to put his feet in the water.]

...You need help with some of that?

[streetwolf]

Is it really that bad? I've been stuck in the city for awhile.

[i_like_ike]

Do you see an issue with this plan?

[i_like_ike]

I'm fine.

[does a little penguin shuffle on his way on over to the water]

[streetwolf]

Did you bash your leg in the changing room or something?

[fastandloose]

Ain't an issue, exactly. Just... seems kinda boring. You really think the people runnin' this are gonna let us get off with that?

[fastandloose]

I can swim. Just never had water clear enough to see before. Or any sea life worth seein'.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[frowns, then crouches down to get a better look]

...You'll live, but it'll sting in the water for a while. You'd better take all that off before it stains, too; I don't want to explain to your sullen little friend why you ended up bloody on my watch.

Wait here.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[follows his gaze, wrinkling his nose]

As I understand it, he possibly was actually raised by wolves. ...That said, while I assumed a basic human respect for one's belongings, I didn't think you of all people would be so fastidious.

[his tone is more questioning than intended to insult]

[streetwolf]

They might have gotten messed up before, especially recently. And there’s not a lot of life left in them, but they’re my only clothes here.

[He might have another reason too, but he’d rather not talk about that bit.]

If these get soaked then I'm going to have to wait for them to dry. I'd rather not have to run around in underwear.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

[nods]

At the beach in Domino, you're more likely to find an old boot than an actual fish. All the more reason to take advantage of it now, I suppose.

I can show if you'd like. Or if there's something else you think would be more appealing. I just figured that if the water looked impressive from here, it'd be really something close up.

[blueeyeswaifudragon]

I'm sure our mixed company appreciates your discretion. Come and change properly, then; you look like a kid given an ice cream who's too afraid to eat it all. Wait too long, it's just going to end up wasted.

[and spins for the changing rooms in a whirl of long jacket and leather straps, since wayne's not the only one completely unprepared for the beach]

[streetwolf]

[Capris boy has found a beach ball. And it might have taken him a few minutes to blow it up but he is now bouncing it around. Occasionally he throws it directly at the water to see how far it can get before floating back up.

He might also try to throw it at the guys and surprise them with it. Cassica still gets the ball tossed at her but he makes sure she can see him do it. From Stella and Meryl’s comments, he knows better than to surprise a girl.]
