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.

Ooooh, ranged weaponry! I like it!

[kickboards]

That's right, ranged weaponry. If we're lucky, we might be able to find some foot soldiers too.

[He could see it now: an army of tiny sea creatures all armed with equally tiny swords and spears, carrying tiny shields and charging at any attackers.]

We'll just need to find some supplies. Squid Girl, do you know where we can get some fireworks?

[moemoetentacles]

Fireworks?

[She blinks, scratching her head with a tentacle.]

I dunno, somebody probably has some.

[kickboards]

Yes, but they're probably saving them for tonight...

[And, as such, were probably unwilling to share.

Rei sighed, finally seeing the wall he had hit.]

I knew I should have double checked my lists before coming here. I coud have picked up some before we left the city.

[moemoetentacles]

We'll just borrow some, nobody will care.

[kickboards]

And how will we go about doing that?

[Telling people that they needed the fireworks for artillery would just ruin the surprise later on. It was supposed to be a secret fortress, after all.]

[moemoetentacles]

We take them when no one is looking.

[kickboards]

That's called 'stealing'. It's not a very nice thing to do.

[Unfortunately, he had already been caught up in a rash of thefts once thus far. He had a suspicion that it was about to happen again.]

[moemoetentacles]

They'll forgive us when they see my awesome castle!

[kickboards]

Hm. Maybe...and, at least, we can then discourage anyone from stealing from us.

[moemoetentacles]

Right! It's win-win.

[kickboards]

I'm still not certain about how much I agree with borrowing something without permission.

[When a man has a few kleptomaniac pokemon, he either joins them or decides that it's better if he doesn't know what they're up to. This one has chosen the latter.]

[moemoetentacles]

It's better to ask for forgiveness than permission.

[kickboards]

I've never heard of anything like that.

[Lies. It was an old adage that he purposfully chose not to live by. :|]

[moemoetentacles]

It's totally true.

[kickboards]

[w e l p. There's no backing out of it now.]

...How do you propose that we go about doing this, then? I don't have much experience in matters like these.

[moemoetentacles]

Leave it to me! I can be gilly sneaky when I want to be.

[She says as she waggles her tentacles back and forth.]

[kickboards]

A-- alright...

[Somehow, Rei finds that he is very worried about this.]

[moemoetentacles]

Okay, so here's how this is gonna go. You distract them, and I'll sneak in and take the fireworks.
