[After the excitement of the last five weeks, Daisuke has spent a good deal of time at home. Understandably. But now he has returned with a vengeance. VENGEANCE, thy name is BEACH. It's a beach not too far from Azumano, and pretty typical at that: it has a few big rocks in the water, yellow sand, that sort of thing. And there is water! He's made sure to do this right next to the old dried-out beach, so now there is /more/ beach and it is awesome, and it's not dead beach anymore!

He brought tons of sand castle supplies, too. Buckets; colorful molds; shovels; a bucket of shells, sand dollars, tiny flags, and feathers.

Daisuke is dressed in a loose white tank top and green plaid shorts because he is not Daisuke if he does not look terrible. He scratches the back of his head and looks over his work.]

I should be doing homework on my day off instead of taking the bus to the beach...

[He sighs at himself.]

But I can't remember the last time I had a day off, and everyone here will really like this. I hope.

[Instead of digging right into the beach, he plops down on a brightly-colored blanket and sketches the Plane for a bit.]

[ooc: IT'S SUMMER IN NOVEMBER! Feel free to use this as a party/mingling post or bother Daisuke. Or make some sand castles by yourself. It's cool with me! ♥ Tags will be slow because lol slowaitus, but I will do my best.]

[Actually, Niwa, you know what you really should be doing?

You should be not stealing Azumano's goddamned beach.

Who do you think you are, Carmen Sandiego?]

[Satoshi appears like a cop at a crime scene, if ordinary cops are prone to appearing out of nowhere and hovering around in a lurking, unsettling sort of way.]

Since you're here, it doesn't matter.

[Here stealing a beach.]

[insynch.livejournal.com]

[Daisuke spazzes and drops his drawing stuff.]

Hi-Hiwatari-san!! I didn't see you! Ahaha...

[Daisuke must always look guilty. Even when he's not breaking any laws or anything. HE'LL RETURN THE BEACH WHEN HE'S DONE. There's no need to freak the fuck out.]

Um, how are you?

[ex_fatalist246]

I'm fine. [Daisuke's guilt is an intangible aura that screams 'Catch the Niwa!' in Satoshi's ear. Satoshi kneels beside the pile.] You're going to build sandcastles?

[Satoshi has never built sandcastles. From the colour of his skin, it's surprising he doesn't sparkle burn under direct sunlight.]

[clinical]

[Party on the beach? Did someone say Palmacosta Never mind. Jade strolls up in military uniform. He looks at the buckets and is vaguely disappointed that there's no sandcastle to accidentally destroy and then scold Guy for ruining.]

[The only thing to do, then, is build one.]

[pactum.livejournal.com]

[There's a Johnny Yong Idiot blond kid sitting nearby, but he doesn't seem to be interested in building sandcastles. Nor does he notice Jade approaching. /cue the JAWS music from the anime

He's just... spacing out. Good job, Emil!]

[clinical]

[Politely and cheerfully, Jade drops an atomic bomb.]

Emil! It's nice to see you again. Have you killed anyone lately?

[quecaneatit.livejournal.com]

[Jade, you cannot hang out on a beach in your uniform. What the hell? Fortunately your Emperor is coming to the rescue]

Like hell you're being seen on a beach wearing that.

[he pushes a bag with a change of clothes into Jade's arms]

Go put that on before someone sees you looking like you do.

[clinical]

[why do you exist]

[Jade is now holding a bag that he knows he does not want to open up.]

I'd rather leave.

[Hey, beach. Dino is kind of strolling back and forth along it as he stares at the water.] Been a while since I've had the chance to come to the beach...

[asmallamoroso.livejournal.com]

[ Also enjoying a fairly leisurely stroll, though ankle-deep in the water instead of dry sand. ] It's a nice change of pace, isn't it?

[buckingbronco.livejournal.com]

[Dino shoves his hands in his pockets] Mm,yeah , especially after recent events.

[asmallamoroso.livejournal.com]

[ Being able to visit a beach without running the risk of running into a dead body for once is good enough to bring her around. Especially now that she was back to her normal size. With her shoes held in one hand she had rolled up her pants in order to walk barefoot where the water was barely a few inches high. ]

[ex_fatalist246]

[Satoshi looks at Ai, considering it, then decides to speak up.] Haibara.

[asmallamoroso.livejournal.com]

[ She pauses ankle deep in the water to look to him. ] Yes?

[collector]

[Braxiatel pops up onto the Plane (he figures it's time he attend his other duties) but stops, because he has appeared in sand where there was not sadn before.]

How seasonal.

[superoptimistic.livejournal.com]

[a shadow passes over Daisuke as Sawako quietly appears behind him]

Are you really sure it's wise to bring this here?

[After all, someone might miss a beach, or there might be the need for
zoning permits on the Plane.]

[insynch.livejournal.com]

[The hair on the back of his neck goes straight up. He freezes, turns completely pale, and sloooooowwwwly turns around to see Sadako Sawako.

CUE GIRLY SHRIEKING AND FLAILING AROUND ON THE SAND. He ends up with his drawing stuff scattered everywhere and a shoe somehow in the water about twenty feet away. Who knows how that got there.]

W-w-what's wrong with the beach!? I'll take it back later, so it's fine!

[superoptimistic.livejournal.com]

[she stares down at his flailing. Clearly the gravity of the situation has occurred to him and his spazzing is due to second thoughts on the beach]

It doesn't belong here. Do you really know what you're doing? [It might be hard to place back correctly because it's so large]

[her gaze shifts to his shoe in the water]

You lost your shoe. Stay here and I'll get it for you.

[and while her appearance might be gloomy and frightening on the outside, on the inside she is squeeing and happy about the opportunity to help Daisuke]

[smolderingdark.livejournal.com]

[Axel is dressed in his circus act usual and looking a little more put-together than he has been for the past few weeks. It's not hard to find him strolling along the new beach, leaving footprints in the sand and occasionally glancing behind him. He picks up a rock, examines it, and then tosses it into the water.]

Nothing's like home, I guess.

[lamb_of_gold]

Homesick?

[lamb_of_gold]

[Watching the water, idly, but pleased.]

Now this looks better.

[IT'S A BEACH YOU GUYS IT'S AN ACTUAL BEACH WITH WATER AND SAND JUST LIKE SOMETHING OUT OF ONE OF GRANDFATHER'S BOOKS

IT'S A BEEEAAAAACHHHHH

THEY DO EXIST AND THEY'RE SO AWESOME

Of course, Tear would never ever reveal just how excited she is to actually be on a beach. Instead, she silently takes it all in, the smallest of smiles on her face. She stands out in the water, water that will actually make you wet if you touch it (GASP), and lets the sea breeze blow past her.]

[insynch.livejournal.com]

[Daisuke appears to be busy collecting rocks! He picks one up about fifteen feet away, then looks up and sees Tear.]

Aah, hi there!

[He waves! ♥]

[royallybitching.livejournal.com]

[This is totally not late.

I mean oh hai there. Here is Luke looking curious because what the hell is all this.]

What's all this stuff for?

this is totally not three days later than late.

[insynch.livejournal.com]

[Daisuke perks up when Luke arrives.]

H-hey! I'm glad you found it.

[He smiles brightly.]

It's for making sandcastles!
