Pool Pool Pool

[all_wound_up]

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.]

((OOC: Open log!  Everyone just tag around at your leisure!))

Aquarius was back in January! I've got half a year before it swings around again.

[bondsofsuffering]

More like you only have half a year. Let it go for too long and you could seriously find yourself in trouble!

[otakuro]

Enki is strong against Water. I'll be fine.

[This is perfectly logical naturally Atsuro will now be capable of breathing underwater. He paddles a little bit away from Hizumi now.]

[bondsofsuffering]

So your Persona lets you breathe under water? That's a useful skill.

[Meanwhile, Hizumi's pulling himself up onto his makeshift noodle raft.]

[otakuro]

...I never said that. It just means I'm, uh, more resistant.

Enki can control water, so I guess I'm counting on him redirecting it somewhere else outside my lungs.

[bondsofsuffering]

Well, if you really think that will work...

I'll just count myself fortunate that I will definitely, without a doubt survive any flooding problems we might have.

[otakuro]

How's that? Even expert swimmers drown in floods sometimes.

[bondsofsuffering]

Well, maybe...

But I wouldn't be one of them.

[otakuro]

...Are you secretly a were-seal from outer space? Like in that weird romance novel going around earlier in the year?

[bondsofsuffering]

It's nothing that crazy.

[...Well, alright, that might be a lie too. But were-seals? Really?]

[otakuro]

But it is a little crazy.

[He floats closer to Hizumi now.]

A long lost race of underwater dwelling Taiko Masters forgotten by the ravages of time?

[bondsofsuffering]

Underwater dwelling Taiko Masters? That's expecting too much, isn't it? Figuring out how to create drums that won't be badly effected by the pressure, and having to make sure there isn't so much moisture that they get ruined... How would we even be able to practice while having to worry about those things?

[otakuro]

It's part of your underwater Taiko master magical powers. ...You shouldn't try and deny it; it will just make the revelation worse when it comes out.

[bondsofsuffering]

[Pfffft.]

I think you're seriously overestimating me here!

[otakuro]

Am I?

[A squinty-eyed stare.]

Or am I not estimating you enough?

[That sentence doesn't even make sense.]

[bondsofsuffering]

...Are you even listening to yourself?

[otakuro]

[Atsuro squints at Hizumi for a few more moments before he begin to paddle towards the edge of the pool.]

I think all this water's going up my ears into my brain; it's time to get out.

[bondsofsuffering]

[Casually floating himself in the way.]

Wasn't there something-- if you can identify that you are insane, you aren't really insane yet?

[otakuro]

If I can identify that I'm going insane, I should probably take steps to stop it, though.

[Atsuro hefts himself out of the pool, splashing an unnecessarily large amount of water as he does so.]

Alright, I've had my exercise for the day.

[bondsofsuffering]

Abandoned so quickly... You sure can be cruel, Atsuro!

[otakuro]

...Says the person who coerced me into going swimming in the first place.

[bondsofsuffering]

It was for your own good!
