Impromptu Labor Day Beach Cookout, The Beach, Monday afternoon

[craftyladyparts]

It was the last day of the reunion and Jessica figured she needed to take a moment alone. Get some solitude, a place to be with her thoughts for a little bit, in a quiet place. The beach would work. Have some white noise from the water, what could possibly be more relaxing

Come say hi to your friends for the final day of the reunion. Say hi to the adorable little pig that's wandering around for some reason.

Kitty wanted some beach time on Labor Day, and she was in a weird (not bad) mood after yesterday, so she'd come down and-

"Oh thank god, I didn't want to set one up myself."

Hermione had actually come out of her hotel room after the disaster that was Saturday, and found an area on the beach where she could sit, and be confused about the pig running around. Student, maybe?

Peyton was happy to spend her last day in Fandom at the beach. Good food, sunshine, and one last chance to see old friends.

Food/Drink

[craftyladyparts]

Plenty of meat and veggies have been grilled up along with other moddable cookout fare. And there's several coolers with water, soda, juices, and so on. One of the coolers had adult beverages, but it was kind of in the back and hard to find.

Brooke found the adult beverages immediately, but that was because she was a) looking for them, and b) Brooke. So she had one in hand and was happy to enjoy the sun. Not many beaches in Manhattan, you know.

Frank stood near the coolers, drinking an aggressively adult beverage. It didn't come from a cooler. He brought his own, naturally. If he'd learned anything the past few days, it was that this school tended to skimp on the booze.

Kieran, being a child and inquisitive, had gone for the soda to figure out what it was. But a look from his mother had him with a plate of veggies and some juice while Morrigan arranged her skirts around herself, set her staff to the side, and indulged in some grilled meats.

The Orlesians simply did not understand how to grill meat properly.

Games

[craftyladyparts]

There's a volleyball court on the sand and some Frisbees laying around in case anyone wanted something active to do.

If you start a game, please list the name in the subthread.

Volleyball

Jaina had never played, but she'd seen the meta for Top Gun and knew how this worked, shirtlessness aside. So she grabbed the ball and tried spiking it over the net.

"I'm too short for this," she muttered.

"You, like, totally aren't. You just need to get your energy going." Where else was Minako going to be? IT WAS VOLLEYBALL.

"Warm up a bit first," she suggested, grabbing one of the balls laying around and bumping it up in the air. "It's way easier to spike once the ball is moving and so are you."

RE: Re: Volleyball

[solo_sword]

"I'm better at everything when I'm already moving," she said, tossing the ball up to bump it a little. "I'm a newbie."

OOC

[craftyladyparts]

I'm staring at loading bars on my computer all day, so I am on my iPad and will almost certainly be slow! Especially as I try playing different characters.

Re: OOC

[solo_sword]

FYI, my characters will be slow because I have my own cookout today but I will be phone pinging as much as possible!
