Who: Everyone!
When: 8/27
Where: The Tropical Island
What: The end of summer is quickly approaching, get your last bit of summer fun in now!
Warnings: Beach episode shenanigans.

Bright sun, warm sands, rolling waves, the tropical island was the place to be. With the new port making travel out much easier, the island was seeing a surge in tourism. Something about fighting giant fiery gods must have made people eager to jump into the water and relax.

Guess it's your body, yeah. [ She shouldn't comment on that - what on Earth is a burned society and... she made her own choices. Hell, she should encourage it. A part of her (the part that thinks of her sister) wants to. but. ] 'suming it works on ghosts.

Still solid.

[She knocks a fist against her skin.]

Most of the time. I'm sure it'll be fine, if I wanted to do it.

[ she said she had trouble with fighting types though-

Melaka decides to test this on the fly, to try to punch her lightly in the shoulder ]

[Since it's a playful punch, it doesn't quite go through her-- but it doesn't seem to get much of a reaction, either. Almost like punching something that isn't completely solid.]

You have to try harder if you wanna see anything cool, you know. [snicker]

[ . . . Really? Now she's just straight up curious. She takes a step back from Maya, and cocks a fist back ]

So you don't mind?

C'mon. Make it a good one.

[With a smirk, Maya readies her arm to be a nice easy target.]

Al...right! [ And with that, a very strong punch is being thrown right at Maya's face! She pushes forth it is, and it-- goes through Maya's head. Oh wow. ]

[Maya almost flinches; she winces when Melaka starts, but when the punch goes through her, she grins with glee.]

See? I told you!

[ And Melaka looks down at her hand, and then at Maya, and then laughs ] Oh solid-! ...Well, not solid! but that's awesome! Come on, I gotta do it again, full power!

[Maya snorts.]

Okay, okay, but if you think you can hit me this time-- maybe not my face.

Yeah, you got it.

[ Melaka says this, and looks at Maya's stomach. She focuses hard on the ghost, and it probably helps that so much skin is exposed on her now. Okay, ... somehow, that looks like a good spot. Melaka punches a fist into her palm and inhales deeply. She does this twice more, and makes her fist glow slightly with some aura. Then she pulls back --

And swings!

This time, it connects! But it is not very effective ]

[More than anything, Maya looks surprised by the blow, touching her stomach as though amazed Melaka's hand didn't go through her.]

Wh-- you did it! How--- How did you do that?

I... I dunno. [ Melaka herself is surprised too, looking down at her fist and then at Maya. And then she holds out an arm, and tries to just throw a wild swing at the woman and-

No, that one went through her. She sort of knew it would too. But that one hit her. So... ] I kinda saw a point which looked right to hit.

That's so cool.

Guess you're not defenseless against ghosts after all.

Guess... not. [ She is excited. She shouldn't so her excitement that much, right? It might be weird for Maya! After all, she just got hit...! ]

[Maya doesn't seem to be offended, though, or even too bothered at all.

In fact, she seems pretty pumped.]

Come on, shouldn't you be happy? Give me a high five!

[isn't there a flaw in that judgement--]

Oh yes! Oh, aura blasting, smacking, yes! [ And she bursts out into a fit of giggles, putting up her hand and swinging for the high five. She punched a ghost?! How badass is that?! ]

[Grinning, Maya swings for that high five, too, but only manages to go through. This just leads to a damn fit of giggles of her own, and Maya nearly doubles over laughing.

Idiots. Dumb cute idiots.]

And of course!

[ Pffthaha oh man, that's great. Mel laughs more herself, holding her sides after completing the swing. That's fantastic. ]
