Yakushima Beach // Open

[itsnotaleash]

[Once you enter through the door with an obvious yellow scarf tied around the doorknob, you'll find yourself on the soft, warm sands of the beach. This isn't just any beach, of course, but the beach at Yakushima! For now, the skies are clear of all clouds as the sun shines down and causes the clear, blue ocean to sparkle. It's really a gorgeous sight. ... Unfortunately, it's a private beach so there are no babes in bikinis, but Thanatos can hope that a few babes from the Mall will drop by so he can gaze upon their curves.

He's also currently setting up a small spot on the beach. At the moment it's just two beach chairs, one for Orpheus, along with a huge beach umbrella and a few towels. Thanatos seems really exited as he strips off his shirt so now he's only in black swim trunks with a pattern of little, white skulls. How adorable. ... He then pauses to look at a bottle of sun tan lotion. He remembers his Junpei once mentioning how girls liked it when they had it rubbed on their backs. Thanatos has a mission. For now, though, he's going to set the bottle aside and zoom off towards the ocean. THIS IS SO EXCITING, HE'S BEEN WAITING FOR THIS.

... Can Death even swim? Looks like we'll all get to find out as he splashes into the waves.]

You can't swim? That's probably why I can't...

[clockstopped]

So take lessons. [Duh.]

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

... [Oh, and actually put the effort into it?]

Yeah, you're right.

[clockstopped]

[Hey, I never took lessons. My foster families were all a bunch of jerks.]

I know.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

Swimming can't be too hard, at least.

[clockstopped]

Probably not.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

I mean, I can float. You know?

[clockstopped]

... [Blink. But don't dead bodies sink in water? Or else there'd be corpses floating around all over the place. Unless... it's some kind of conspiracy to make you THINK the average body's mass could be dispersed enough to float. Hmm...

Excuse him while he contemplates this derpcase train of thought with the same expression one gives while solving a calculus equation.]

... Orpheus?

[clockstopped]

...?

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

You all right?

[clockstopped]

Yeah.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

All right. You just seemed to zone out all of the sudden.

[clockstopped]

Just thinking.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

About what?

[clockstopped]

... Not important.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

[Sighs.] Come on, let's go for a walk.

[clockstopped]

... All right.

[Gets up off of the towel and waits for Orpheus.]

[clockstopped]

[Simply stands and walks with at the same pace, much easier to do now than usually. No longer nearby to a Nyx whoo~ Which is the real reason why he doesn't look as horrible as he did when he entered. But that's not what matters right now- have a smile once they're both moving.]

Enjoying yourself?

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

I am. [A smile in return as he walks into a small wave before it shrinks back.] You look like you're enjoying yourself as well. I'm glad - I was worried about you.

[clockstopped]

That's good. [Takes a small step back - still nearby, but juuust far away enough where the wave doesn't touch him.] You're always worrying. Stop it.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

I told you - I can't help but worry about you. [Sets his hand to his chest as he continues to walk.]

Whenever Erebus gets too much, we should just come here. All right?

[clockstopped]

Worry about yourself for once.

... [Scoff.] You just want an excuse to come here more often.

[itsnotaleash.livejournal.com]

You're more important.

[An amused noise.] That's not true. This beach just makes us both happy when we're here. It's so soothing...
