After a conversation with Kitty earlier in the week about summer and beaches and partying in general, she and Warren had both agreed that throwing one such party as soon as possible would be a great idea ( Read more... )

Arrive! Mingle! not_a_parakeet June 5 2010, 18:40:17 UTC

Sure, it's a little cloudy out today, but it's still ridiculously hot. What gives, weather?

It was best not to ask how long Kitty had spent trying to figure out which bathing suit to wear, since she figured a one-piece wouldn't fly anywhere that the guys took off their shirts on day one, but didn't want to be all like Hi there in a bikini. Not that she thought she had what it took to be all like Hi there in a bikini but that was not the point.

Ladies and gentlemen, the tankini. Nice compromise there.

Oh, and Kitty was happy to be here, and if her head was kind of bopping to the music, well, that was to be expected.

"Beach," Warren announced, grinning as he stepped up to Kitty and gestured around them. "And the beginnings of a party, even. Which, I believe, officially makes this one of the best places to go to school on the entire Eastern seaboard."

And he could tell because of his vast amounts of experience going to schools around the Eastern seaboard, right? Sure, Warren.

"I totally agree with you there," Kitty said happily. "I think the fact that we're responsible for the beginnings of a party on the beach makes us kind of rule. Ignore how the weather could like tone it down a notch or twelve."

Food! not_a_parakeet June 5 2010, 18:41:20 UTC

Yep! There's barbecue, of course, and salads and sodas and potato chips and other moddable deliciousness. Because it isn't a party without moddable deliciousness.

This was where Warren had staked out a place for himself, yes. If only because somebody had to make certain that there were enough hamburgers to go around for a little while, and... Well, he'd never gotten to play with a BBQ before. It was kind of cool.

Turn the knobs! Make fire! Cook things! Independence was awesome.

It's entirely possible that Warren grew up watching meta for Top Gun. And probably a lot of Baywatch reruns.

At least the music on the radio can be changed, if anyone gets sick of Kenny Loggins.

Other stuff! not_a_parakeet June 5 2010, 18:47:12 UTC

Look, when Warren decides to go all-out with this 'beach' thing, he delivers. There are a few surfboards, a large selection of pool noodles, some inner tubes, beach towels, suntan lotion in spite of the cloudy day, inflatable floating shark rafts, and some pails and shovels.

... He used to like making sandcastles on the beach in his youth. So sue him.

Yeah. Now I have Playing With The Boys stuck in my head. Save me.

Re: OOC! svetocha_blooms June 5 2010, 23:55:03 UTC

You provided the audio soundtrack. My brain immediately went to the video.

Ahhhh, the happy place....

Mmm, Tom Cruise before he started to scare people. <3
