Who: Everyone!
Where: Hinoto-Ri Public Pool
When: The weekend of June 7th-9th
Summary: We have a pool now!  Summer fun for everyone!
Warnings: Probably none.

[It's summer, and what would summer be without a pool?  Well, thankfully for the good citizens and Visitors of Hinoto-Ri, the public pool is finally open for business!  With three different pools, a snack bar, and plenty of space on the grass for playing frisbee or just laying out to get some sun, there's plenty of summertime fun for everyone!  There are also a number of pool toys to use, ranging from basketball hoops and plastic balls, water noodles, boogie boards, and just about anything else you can think of.]

KIDDIE POOL

[all_wound_up]

[This one is a small wading pool with one of those mushroom-shaped things in the middle. Great for little kids or people who just want to get their feet wet a little.]

[selematpagi]

[ Screw just walking in, Yukko takes off running for the kiddie pool and jumps! ]

Beeeeelly Floooo -

[ SMACK!

Yukko meets the water face first and immediately hits the bottom. Good thing the floor of the wading pool is padded.

... Yukko floats in the water for the time with her arms spread eagle. Don't mind her. She's fine... Kind of ]

MEDIUM POOL

[all_wound_up]

[This pool ranges from two and a half feet deep at the shallow end to six feet deep at the deep end. There are also two water slides at the deep end of the pool for visitors' enjoyment.]

[all_wound_up]

[Nano is hanging out in the shallow end of the pool, clad in a simple white swimsuit as she splashes around, enjoying the nice cool water. Apparently despite her robotic body, she's still able to at least hang out in waist-deep water. Thank goodness that key doesn't rust, either.]

Ah, the water feels so good!

[bondsofsuffering]

[Earlier in the day, Hizumi manages to goad a group of citizens into a game of water basketball, and judging by the fervor there's more riding on the outcome than just a matter of pride.

He won't be available to chat during the game itself for obvious reasons, but it's quite a heated match, and likely to draw all kinds of attention even as Hizumi proceeds to carry his team to an overwhelming victory. Once the match is over, he's practically jumping for joy (...as much as one can in the water, anyway).]

Yessss! Free yakiniku-!

[...At least he has his priorities?]

[prettytamer]

[Don't hang around the water slides or Midori might knock into you on the way down!]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[silvercoins]

[Judas is sitting on the side of the pool dangling his feet into the water. He didn't really want to be here, but Zoe.

He has a feeling he's going to be saying 'but Zoe' a lot.

Bother? Push into pool? (He's a skinny dude you could probably do it-)]

[punchedoutdestiny]

[When no one is looking, a strangely-dressed man appears to blink into existence - those with their COMPs handy may receive an alert that this man is a new arrival.

Unfortunately, his arrival put him right next to one of the pools. Enough that his feet were hanging off the edge partially. Simon's balance proves how not-great it is, and he promptly flails a bit and makes a pretty big splash as he falls into the water. Thankfully, it's the deeper end of the pool, so there's not any unfortunate impacts with the pool itself.]

Wha--WHOA!

ADULT POOL

[all_wound_up]

[The deepest pool is five feet at the shallow end and twelve feet at the deep end. There's a diving board and a high dive platform further up.]

[emperor_penguin]

[DeDeDe can be found floating on his back in the shallow end of the adult pool, wearing a ridiculous and oversized pair of Hawaiian print swimming trunks as he relaxes. He is a penguin, after all, and penguins do enjoy a nice cool bath. Besides, it's actually nice to get away from the club once in a while.]

[papillonmagique]

[And after swimming around said pool for a while, Zoe will eventually burst out of the water and hoist herself up to sit on the edge of the pool, wearing this bikini and kicking her feet in the water slightly. She's taking a break before she goes back to swim a few more laps.]

[hinoto_npcs]

It wasn't just Visitors that showed up to the seasonal opening of the public pool- citizens had also arrived in droves, of course. One of them, a teenager with an out of place t-shirt, overly baggy swimtrunks, and navy flipflops was staring at the adult-sized pool over the top of his sunglasses like he was trying to analyze it for lost bandaids or nasty bodyscum.

"...this doesn't seem very sanitary." It was little more than a mumble, and he sighed immediately after spitting the comment out.

Babe watchin'

[rebellious_mercenary]

So this guy finally decides to join in on the fun. Sporting some red swim trunks (because why not?), he'll hop right in the pool.

Of course, his real reason for joining in is obvious the moment you catch him looking at some of the chicks. Yup.

The pervert.

[capitalbackup]

[After finding herself at the pool, Miyako decided to go for a swim. Or rather, climbing up the platform and getting onto a high diving form in a black bikini.

And dive into the deep end of the pool with a pretty decent form.

After a moment, she would swim back up and her head emerges from the water. Haaa, that feels good.]

[helenchanter]

"Come on come on come on come ON!" Miki was skipping ahead, bundle of energy and already in her two piece bikini with beach towel draped over at her elbows as she surveyed the people around. "It's a little more crowded than I thought...but the water looks so nice!"

It was time for relaxing. She'd definitely earned it after what happened last month and all that work at the store. No wait...she shouldn't be thinking about the store, the song was going to pop right back in her... too late.

"If you want to heal you'll need to--" Damnit Miki, get it together! "I mean...Y-yeah! Let's go swimming!"

[tyrantball]

The 's' in Desco stands for 'submersible'. This is not hyperbole - anyone who has heard Desco give her full name knows this. Currently, Desco has somehow managed to fit into a swimsuit and is playing at the bottom of the deep end of the pool, laughing and having a good time.

It's an open question as to exactly where her normal chitinous dress has gone, but it's probably just one more thing that can be chalked up to 'demons are weird, man' and forgotten about.

SNACK BAR

[all_wound_up]

[Need some refreshments? The snack bar is open during all the same hours as the pool, serving up soda, pizza, sandwiches, and all manner of snack foods. There are picnic tables set up for people to eat and relax at.]

[rebellious_mercenary]

The aroma of pizza draws this guy in. He ends up grabbing a slice and some soda along with it and sits down at the picnic table, munching away at it and watching everyone have fun.

He may join in later but at the moment, well, you see it.

... You see a man who can never be separated from his pizza, no matter where he is.

[otakuro]

[Refreshments, Atsuro could do. Having to actually get into the water and paddle around, not so much. Atsuro sits at a picnic table idly snatching fries from a huge stack of cheesy fries with one hand and typing away on his new laptop with another. He is well away from the water, of course.

...Honestly why is he even at the pool he totally deserves to be pushed in.]

[shadowsher]

[ Going to the pool is the sort of thing that Satou would want for him to do. And it's not like he can't swim or that he doesn't like the pool. He's just usually there for the people. Going there all by himself was sort of weird.

Which is why Mikale is wearing a shirt over his swim trunks and hanging out at the snack bar. Now he can put "went to the pool alone" in his book of accomplishments and not have to put up with looking awkwardly lonely all by himself.

Sorta win-win. Plus he got a sandwich and some pop. Can't say it's been a bad day. ]

LAWN

[all_wound_up]

[There's plenty of room out on the grass for setting up towels or chairs to do some sunbathing.]

Re: LAWN

[terminally_clever]

[Fumi can be found sitting on a beach chair out on the lawn with a small umbrella set up behind her to provide a bit of shade. She's wearing sunglasses and a black bikini with her JP's coat loosely draped around her, and she's got her laptop set up as she types away, ignoring most of what's going on around her. All work and no play, apparently.]

[electricyousei]

[Ruri sits under an umbrella she set up under a tree, tapping away at a holographic keyboard to a screen floating in the air in front of her as she sits on a towel, occasionally looking to see if the sun is low enough in the sky to try the water out.]

[demifemme]

Shura, sporting a white bikini, had decided to forego the pool in favour of the lawn. She's sitting out in the sun, legs crossed, and fanning herself with an actual paper fan. A drink is on the grass next to her and she has three Sudamas resting on her shoulders and head.

[doesasordered]

[Nik's not going for a swim, but he's brought along a lawn chair and his guitar. It's a nice day out, so why not? If he's not going to swim, he can play a little music for the crowd. He'll aim for some songs a little more upbeat than his usual bluesy stuff.]
