[After feeling a little more sane and knowing of Winry's trip, Sokka will be stopping by the beach to check on how they're all doing. Though he's primarily there to say hi to Winry, he'll talk to anyone that isn't Xingese. Because Xingese suck.]

[crytearsofjoy]

[This day Winry is basking in the sun. She lies out on a towel, soaking up the warmth and light. In fact she's already got a slight tan from the previous days, and learned her lesson about sunscreen from her one-on-one trip with Sokka.]

[markofthewise]

[You mean the sunlight Sokka is NOW BLOCKING?]

Aren't you worried about getting burned again?

[crytearsofjoy]

[She sits up, confused to as why he's here.] Sokka?

The Magical Boat of Magical Awesome

[truthget]

[So after enough demands from a particularly demanding girl (AKA Haruhi) Edward is finally prodded into making good use of his alchemy skills. Several trees are felled from the mountain, converted into lumber, and then, after a great deal of blueprint-consulting and note-taking, as well as a series of complicated transmutations, at last, it's complete!

...To the extent that it'll probably sail without sinking, anyway. Hardly furnished and all. But yes, the beach now has a rather large boat on the edge of the shore, waiting to be used. And Edward is standing nearby, feeling rather accomplished and pondering the need for a dock.

Let us all now enjoy SAILING! Or just admiring the shiny new toy or something, that works too.]

[crytearsofjoy]

[Wow, that- That's actually impressive. She stands next to him, staring at the water vehicle for sometime before-] Are we going to use it?

I knew I was forgetting a thread

[truthget]

[Edward glances over at her, then over to wherever Haruhi is.]

We should probably try it out before we tell people it's been made. I don't know anything about sailing, though.

/jack in

[godbent]

[She's currently inspecting the exterior some more - knocking on it in a few places. Actually, overhearing them, she turns and-]

Do we even have sails on it? I forgot to bring anything for them.

16th!

[What is a trip to the beach without a picnic! Gracia's preparing a great spread on a large beach towel next to the lawn chairs Winry set up. There are sandwiches, potato salad, quishe, and pie. She has on a modest one piece, a light blue cover-up, and a large floppy hat.]

I wish I'd known about those teleporters before. They could have made the trip back to town a lot more.. convenient.

[crytearsofjoy]

[Nearby Winry checks the cooler with the ice and beverages, and pulls out a bottled fruit drink. She looks over to Gracia, and admires how pretty she looks. In the back of her mind she hopes to look that pretty as a mom some day.]

Miss Gracia, want anything to drink?

[momnapplepie]

[Hmm...] I'd love some iced tea, Winry.

[crytearsofjoy]

[The blond nods and fishes an iced tea from the cooler. She'll sit by Gracia and hand over the drink. She opens her own before speaking.]

Mind teaching me how to make some of this one day?

16th — being latest runs in the family

[asobouyo]

[For one thing-oh my gosh a beach! A beach! It's got lots of water and sand and sky and it's a beach! Clearly this means running up as close as she can to the edge of the sand, and then fleeing in terror when the next wave crashes in.

For another thing, it means sandcastles. Sandcastles are so cool, aren't they? And it needs a moat, a big cool moat! Once said mountain castle is done, she'll defend it from the evil water with her entire being. B|

Literally, she lays down in front of the castle and blocks dat water. DEDICATION!!!]

[twinnedavarice]

[Eveeentually the sun will be blocked when Ling arrives to stand over the little girl, quirking a brow at whatever it she's doing.]

What exactly are you doing?

[asobouyo]

[oh hey there]

I'm protecting my castle!! Water makes it fall down!

[twinnedavarice]

[That doesn't look like much of a castle.]

Maybe you should have built it further from the water.
