Surf's up!
Who: Everybody!
Where: Fuchsia City Beach
When: July 15th
Summary: Get yo beach fun on
As far as perfect summer days are concerned, this one is as perfect as they get. The sun is warm, the breeze brings just the right amount of needed refreshment, and the ocean waves are totally gnarly. Because that is what you say when a wave is good.
Seeing as this party has been 'organised' by a group of beach bums, their surfing buddies, and a group of very relaxed Pikachu, it's best not to expect anything too structured out of the day. That would totally harsh the vibe. No, this is very much a 'show up whenever, do whatever, be chill' sort of meet-up.
There's a little stand where visitors can rent all manner of surfboards, wakeboards, and floats. Not for rent, but definitely for fun, is a giant, blow-up Cresselia float. Anyone wanting to join the party need only climb on board to be towed across the water by the surf-stand owner's Blastoise, which is having just as much fun as you are.
Always able to Detect an opportunity, several smaller stands of local merchants can be found selling everything you could ever want in the name of hydration and refreshment. Ice-cream, sodas, fresh water! You name it, and someone is bound to have it.
And while there really are no organised events, ever so often the surfers (human and Pikachu alike) will hold impromptu surfing contests. Feel free to join them. Or feel just as free to tap someone on the arm for some surfing lessons. You might even snag a small, electric instructor.
Speaking of snagging an electric buddy -- that, unfortunately, is the one rule this party does have: No battling and catching the Pikachu!. If you happen to hit it off with one and have a defining character moment after which it decides to stay with you? That's fine. But seriously. No battle. Not even mock-battles between friends. Vibes. Harshed. Let's not.
As evening begins to creep down on the shore and a beautiful sunset bathes the beach in golden light, a bonfire is lit, and food starts appearing everywhere.... though it is all, unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you swing), strictly vegetarian. Anyone craving a good, meaty burger (or an old-fashioned marshmallow) better have brought their own, because here you will find only vegetarian substitutes.
So feel free to drop by, catch some waves, share some food, and who knows, maybe you might even make some new friends. As they say --

Surfs up~!

[He said, to so many different points that he has left what he is agreeing to vague. He glances down, then away, seeming a little... embarrassed?]
I have something I need to tell you. Though I had hoped we might enjoy ourselves longer upon the beach... Yet I see that is not wont to happen.
[As if he doesn't have his part in it.]
no subject
...I do not see why we cannot simply enjoy the beach together. Well, other than the fact you seem keen on making it as unpleasant as possible. Honestly, Hythlodaeus why did we come here? So we had a relaxing backdrop as you make this entire thing miserable?
[Rolling his eyes, he levels an annoyed stare at him as he crosses his arms.]
Go on then! Out with it. But do know if we wasted a trip here merely so you could ruin any chance of enjoying it...
[He lets that hang in the air, the implication being threat enough, if the stare he's giving Hythlodaeus wasn't already.]
no subject
I slipped, when I was speaking. I... said your name. Aloud. I had not meant to, but I likewise wasn’t being careful enough.
no subject
...To whom.
no subject
[There's nothing he can really say about that otherwise. He folds his hands and gazes at them.]
no subject
[He says it rather quick, but otherwise he seems calm. And just as calmly, he stands up, grabbing his bag as he does so. Then, he levels a glare down at Hythlodaeus.]
So, did you believe the beach would help soothe me when you dropped this betrayal upon me? Is that why you brought me here? Is that why you wished to drag me from Goldenrod to all the way out here, so that when I inevitably lost my temper, it might not be so bad for you!?
[As he's talking, he's speaking more quickly, his expression twisting with fury. His posture has grown rigid, and he's pointing down at Hythlodaeus now.]
Well! If aught at all, this has exacerbated my fury! That I would believe we'd enjoy ourselves, but instead you reveal to me betrayal, upon a beautiful stage, no less! Why can you not merely do as I ask? Why must you always, always test my bounds, Hythlodaeus?!
Do you truly not care? Am I naught more than--than a mere toy to be played with? What is it!?
no subject
I had hoped I might make you understand before this, or perhaps explained after our outing. It appears that my... conscience... caught up with me too soon.
[ He gazes up at Hades before his eyes fall back to the sand underneath him. ]
no subject
[He can feel his anger boiling beneath the surface, and he nearly snarls at him in his upset.]
You are not pulling this mummery with me! If you truly cared--if you gave a single damn about what I want, we would not be having this conversation! You do not get to play guilty! You do not even have a clue what guilt feels like!
[At this point, his voice is high and squawky as he rummages with almost frantic movements through his bag.]
But let us pretend for a moment, that you care--at all--about the damage you've done--my trust you've betrayed! What could you possibly do to make up for it, hm!?
I'll tell you exactly what!
[As he finds what he's looking for, he grabs it, pulls it out and tosses a wad of cash right at Hythlodaeus' face.]
NOTHING!
no subject
... What is this for?
[ He lifts the bills in one hand as he stares up. ]
no subject
[Adjusting the bag on his shoulder, he continues to glower at Hythlodaeus, his hands shaking with his barely contained anger. If someone could count this as that.]
Mayhap you can stay with your new friend! Since you and Steven have grown so close in such a short amount of time, so close that you would tease and eventually indulge him in my most guarded and treasured information! Perchance he'll share his bed with you, as you so shared such intimacy with him!
Would that not be marvelous!
no subject
... You would have me stay with him, truly?
no subject
[And with that, he's finally found the ability to turn to leave. Even in his anger, he feels...some guilt over this, but his burning righteous fury fuels his ability to leave. Should Hythlodaeus not attempt to stop.]
