Omega19x (7:37:51 PM): It was a quiet night at the beach behind Isis' house. Lanterns are strung up, luau music is playing.
silverbluedreams (7:38:26 PM): Kisara showed up to the house, a little unsure if she should knock at the door or just go around back.
Omega19x (7:40:27 PM): Which meant it was good that Ryou just opened the door to put a little sign on it saying, 'Take a free lei and come around back'
silverbluedreams (7:41:31 PM): So Kisara took a lei and proceeded to go around back.
Omega19x (7:42:33 PM): "Glad you could make it..." Ryou smiled, carrying out a dish of banana guava puffs for the mini-puffet. "Malik! can you get the pineapple macadamia nut puffs?"
NinaBallerinaxD (7:43:20 PM): Pegasus wandered around, seeing someone take a lei and go around back. He assumed that is what was supposed to be done, so he did the same. Then he saw Ryou welcoming the other guest.
so transiently (7:44:14 PM): "Yo!" Malik went to go retrieve the aforementioned puffs.
Omega19x (7:44:29 PM): "Thank you!!"
silverbluedreams (7:45:15 PM): "Hi Ryou," Kisara smiled.
so transiently (7:46:04 PM): He brought back a plate full of puffs and set them down on the table with the other ones.
NinaBallerinaxD (7:46:30 PM): Pegasus nervously shifted away from the others and stared off into space.
Omega19x (7:47:28 PM): "Hi Pegasus." Ryou smiled, putting the last of the little umbrellas in the cups of fruit punch and mango juice. "Glad you could come..."
NinaBallerinaxD (7:48:25 PM): "Hey Ryou" He gave him a smile,"Glad to be invited"
Omega19x (7:49:45 PM): "Everyone's welcome at our beach bash!" Ryou grinned.
Xdragon childeX (7:50:54 PM): Pandora had nearly walked right into the door before noticing the sign, so with a shrug put on a lei and ducked around back. He gave a low wolf-whistle, impressed with the layout.
silverbluedreams (7:52:08 PM): "So what's the occassion Ryou?" Kisara asked, sampling some of the puffs.
silverbluedreams (7:52:16 PM): ((we need grass skirts))
Xdragon childeX (7:52:39 PM): [yes, definitely need those.]
Xdragon childeX (7:52:56 PM): [feel free to shoot me, I was tempted to suggest coconut bras along with that. =X]
Omega19x (7:53:15 PM): "It's that time of year... The weather's been so nice, I thought it'd be nice to get out and enjoy it."
silverbluedreams (7:53:34 PM): ((wooo! coconut bras! XD ))
Xdragon childeX (7:56:46 PM): "I was just going to ask the same thing," Pandora nodded, snagging a puff off the table. "That makes sense though. Always good to have an excuse to do things like this."
so transiently (7:57:12 PM): "Yep. That and it was kind of a long weekend, so we thought it might feel good to just kick back and relax."
Omega19x (7:57:45 PM): "mmhmm." Ryou picked up a glass of fruit punch and sipped it.
silverbluedreams (7:58:41 PM): "And it's always nice to get together with friends."
Omega19x (8:00:16 PM): "That's right!" Ryou smiled. "Say... who's up for a big game of limbo?"
silverbluedreams (8:00:52 PM): "Limbo?"
so transiently (8:00:58 PM): "Limbo?"
so transiently (8:01:05 PM): (( *sheltered Malik is sheltered* ))
NinaBallerinaxD (8:01:13 PM): "OOHH! I AM!" A reply that was a little strange coming out of Pegasus.
silverbluedreams (8:01:38 PM): ((don't feel bad, Kisara's never heard of it either :-) ))
Xdragon childeX (8:02:03 PM): If you wanted Pandora to do something, you made it a competition or a performance. "I'm SO in!" He did a double-take, his eyes bugging out of his head. "Wait, you've never heard of--"
Omega19x (8:02:27 PM): "Yeah. I picked up a limbo kit at the party store." Ryou put a bar high on the pineapple-topped poles. "You go under the bar, and it gets lower at every round until someone either wins, or everyone falls down on the sand."
silverbluedreams (8:04:34 PM): "Well that sounds like it could be fun," Kisara said, and was glad that she had decided against wearing a dress or skirt to the party.
Omega19x (8:05:19 PM): (the way this will work is by each player rolling 1d10 for each round. There is a magic number that you must roll below in order to clear the bar, and it gets lower every round)
Omega19x (8:05:48 PM): (does everyone remember how to dice roll in chat?)
silverbluedreams (8:06:07 PM): ((nope. my brain keeps telling me to type /roll lol))
NinaBallerinaxD (8:06:09 PM): [nope]
so transiently (8:06:13 PM): "Huh. Sounds easy enough."
so transiently (8:06:19 PM): (( it's //roll-dice1-sides10 ))
NinaBallerinaxD (8:06:41 PM): [[alright]]
silverbluedreams (8:07:01 PM): ((i can't see that first part. a box with a red x inside it popped up))
so transiently (8:08:25 PM): (( ... Huh? ))
Omega19x (8:10:37 PM): Ryou turned up the music a little. "Okay, we'll start pretty high, since a couple people haven't played before..."
silverbluedreams (8:10:41 PM): ((my comp thinks you're trying to use a smileyface it doesn't recognize the keystrokes for))
silverbluedreams (8:10:57 PM): (( //-dice1-sides10 ))
silverbluedreams (8:11:08 PM): ((is that what it's supposed to look like?))
so transiently (8:11:39 PM): (( There's supposed to be "roll" after "//" ))
silverbluedreams (8:12:14 PM): ((okay well at least i know what to type now :-) ))
Omega19x (8:12:22 PM): (all hail the smiley faces)
Omega19x (8:12:51 PM): (now, everyone got it?)
Xdragon childeX (8:12:56 PM): [yeah]
Omega19x (8:13:25 PM): "Line up!"
NinaBallerinaxD (8:13:27 PM): [mmhmm]
Omega19x (8:13:32 PM): (and brb for me...)
silverbluedreams (8:14:39 PM): Kisara got in line
so transiently (8:14:55 PM): Malik got in line. How hard could it be?
NinaBallerinaxD (8:15:08 PM): So did Pegasus, right behind Malik.
Xdragon childeX (8:16:03 PM): Pandora got behind Pegasus, resisting the urge to elbow his way past.
silverbluedreams (8:17:03 PM): ((um...where is Isis in all of this?))
Xdragon childeX (8:17:21 PM): [haha, good question. I was wondering too]
NinaBallerinaxD (8:17:47 PM): [[hmm, I dont know]]
so transiently (8:17:53 PM): (( I'm multitasking like crazy so she's just hanging out in the house. ))
silverbluedreams (8:18:47 PM): ((ah okay :-) ))
NinaBallerinaxD (8:19:01 PM): [[brb]]
NinaBallerinaxD (8:20:35 PM): [[back]]
Omega19x (8:20:47 PM): Ryou got in line behind Pegasus.
fai tiger has entered the chat room.
silverbluedreams (8:22:46 PM): ((guess i should start then))
Omega19x (8:23:13 PM): (yup. roll in line, remember, 7 or lower moves on to the next round!)
fai tiger (8:23:49 PM): Rebecca arrived late at the party. Noticing the line, she hurried over to join.
silverbluedreams (8:24:04 PM): roll//-dice1-sides10
so transiently (8:24:14 PM): (( After the slashes. XD ))
silverbluedreams (8:24:21 PM): ((*headdesk*))
silverbluedreams (8:24:37 PM): ((this is so much easier in WoW))
Omega19x (8:25:08 PM): (this is not WoW. If it were, Mahaado would be here solo'ing 40-man lvl 70 instances, and there'd be better graphics.)
silverbluedreams (8:25:36 PM): ((yeah, but all i have to do is type /roll and i roll a dice ))
silverbluedreams (8:26:13 PM): silverbluedreams rolled 1 10-sided die: 4
Omega19x (8:26:20 PM): (and play out your result)
silverbluedreams (8:26:22 PM): ((woot!))
Omega19x (8:26:25 PM): (then go to the end of the line)
silverbluedreams (8:26:41 PM): Kisara walked under the bar easily, and went around to the end of the line.
Omega19x (8:27:36 PM): (remember your order, and keepeth the line moving)
so transiently (8:28:15 PM): Malik went next.
so transiently (8:28:21 PM): so transiently rolled 1 10-sided die: 5
silverbluedreams (8:28:35 PM): ((i hope no one gets over on this first roll))
NinaBallerinaxD (8:28:43 PM): Then Pegasus went.
NinaBallerinaxD (8:28:45 PM): NinaBallerinaxD rolled 1 10-sided die: 5
so transiently (8:28:46 PM): He made it under the bar with no problems. "Huh. That was easy."
Omega19x (8:28:51 PM): Ryou clapped. "Good job! See, it's not that hard!"
Xdragon childeX (8:28:54 PM): Xdragon childeX rolled 1 10-sided die: 5
silverbluedreams (8:28:58 PM): ((yet))
fai tiger (8:29:06 PM): ((*will so laugh if Rebecca hits the bar*))
silverbluedreams (8:29:26 PM): ((lol, especially considering she's shorter than most of us))
Xdragon childeX (8:29:48 PM): Pandora laughed as he made it under the bar effortlessly. "Psh. Piece of cake."
Omega19x (8:29:50 PM): Omega19x rolled 1 10-sided die: 8
Omega19x (8:30:08 PM): And Ryou walked right into the bar...
fai tiger (8:30:24 PM): Rebecca winced. "Aww... sorry Ryou."
silverbluedreams (8:30:29 PM): ((poor Ryou))
Omega19x (8:30:31 PM): "... owww...."
so transiently (8:30:41 PM): Malik winced as he watched. "Eep..."
so transiently (8:30:46 PM): (( It figures, doesn't it XD ))
fai tiger (8:30:56 PM): fai tiger rolled 1 10-sided die: 4
fai tiger (8:31:50 PM): Rebecca quickly and easily went under the bar, then gave Ryou an apologetic smile.
Omega19x (8:31:54 PM): Ryou rubbed his head, and sat off to the side. "Guess I need a bit more practice, huh..."
Omega19x (8:32:06 PM): (round 2. The number to go under is 6)
silverbluedreams (8:32:32 PM): silverbluedreams rolled 1 10-sided die: 6
silverbluedreams (8:32:41 PM): ((....do i still hit the bar?))
Omega19x (8:32:50 PM): (yeah... you just bumped it.)
Omega19x (8:32:55 PM): (gotta go under in Limbo.)
so transiently (8:33:48 PM): Again, it was Malik's turn.
so transiently (8:33:49 PM): so transiently rolled 1 10-sided die: 2
fai tiger has left the chat room.
so transiently (8:33:57 PM): And again, he went under it easily.
NinaBallerinaxD (8:34:09 PM): Pegasus was up now
NinaBallerinaxD (8:34:12 PM): NinaBallerinaxD rolled 1 10-sided die: 8
fai tiger has entered the chat room.
NinaBallerinaxD (8:34:37 PM): He slammed his head right into the pole and staggered backwards.
Omega19x (8:34:47 PM): "...ohhh... Are you okay, Pegasus?"
silverbluedreams (8:34:48 PM): Kisara went and sat beside Ryou.
Xdragon childeX (8:34:54 PM): Xdragon childeX rolled 1 10-sided die: 4
NinaBallerinaxD (8:36:07 PM): "Y-yeah, I'm fine" Pegasus gave a weak smile,"Just too tall for this"
Xdragon childeX (8:36:22 PM): Pandora got under again, no problems. "Ouch," he grimaced at Pegasus. "Wow, are you all right?"
Xdragon childeX (8:36:34 PM): "Yeah, that would do it, huh?"
silverbluedreams (8:36:47 PM): ((man, the line got cut in half on the second round!))
fai tiger (8:37:02 PM): Rebecca gave the three sitting on the sidelines a smile before taking her turn.
fai tiger (8:37:12 PM): fai tiger rolled 1 10-sided die: 10
silverbluedreams (8:37:18 PM): ((ouch))
silverbluedreams (8:37:30 PM): ((we really suck at this lol))
fai tiger (8:37:54 PM): And Rebecca promptly ran headfirst into the bar...
so transiently (8:38:07 PM): (( ...ow. XD ))
Omega19x (8:38:15 PM): Ryou covered his eyes. That looked like it stung!
NinaBallerinaxD (8:38:19 PM): [[ouch =/]]
so transiently (8:38:24 PM): (( Who's even left? ))
NinaBallerinaxD (8:38:32 PM): [[Pandora is]]
silverbluedreams (8:38:33 PM): ((Pandora and you))
so transiently (8:38:42 PM): (( Gee. XD ))
Omega19x (8:38:49 PM): (Round 3 - the number to go under is 5!)
fai tiger (8:39:09 PM): Luckily, it wasn't a very heavy bar, so it didn't hurt Rebecca's head too much. She did whimper a little as she sat down though.
Omega19x (8:40:47 PM): "Go Malik! Go Pandora!" Ryou cheered.
so transiently (8:41:33 PM): Malik took his turn.
so transiently (8:41:34 PM): so transiently rolled 1 10-sided die: 7
so transiently (8:41:40 PM): And bumped into it.
so transiently (8:41:48 PM): "Aww. I was on a roll, there."
Omega19x (8:41:55 PM): "You really were..."
fai tiger (8:42:23 PM): "Aww, poor Malik. What happens if Pandora doesn't go under either?"
Omega19x (8:42:36 PM): "Then I guess you guys tie."
so transiently (8:42:45 PM): Malik flopped down next to Ryou.
Xdragon childeX (8:42:58 PM): Xdragon childeX rolled 1 10-sided die: 10
Omega19x (8:43:29 PM): (you trying to jump over it, Pandora?)
silverbluedreams (8:43:39 PM): ((lol))
NinaBallerinaxD (8:43:43 PM): [[ha]]
Xdragon childeX (8:43:57 PM): To show off his prowess, Pandora did a little shimmy as he went under... and caught his chin on the bar, flipping him over.
silverbluedreams (8:43:58 PM): ((spontaneous vaulting competition!))
Omega19x (8:44:15 PM): (you guys want to jump over the next game?)
Xdragon childeX (8:44:26 PM): [sure! =)]
NinaBallerinaxD (8:44:30 PM): "That looked....painful" Pegasus looked away.
silverbluedreams (8:44:31 PM): ((yeah!))
NinaBallerinaxD (8:44:36 PM): [[sounds like a plan]]
Omega19x (8:44:38 PM): (then jump over it we shall!)
Omega19x (8:44:57 PM): "... okay... maybe we should try jumping over it instead..." Ryou put the pole lower.
Omega19x (8:45:09 PM): (same dice roll. Same order. Round 1= the number to go OVER is 3!)
so transiently (8:45:19 PM): "Sure, why not?"
Xdragon childeX (8:46:04 PM): "Yeah, I could do that," Pandora replied slowly, one hand on his poor jaw.
fai tiger (8:46:25 PM): "Sure, I'll try."
NinaBallerinaxD (8:46:30 PM): "Sounds...easier" Pegasus slightly whimpered.
silverbluedreams (8:47:07 PM): ((someone else can go first this time))
Omega19x (8:47:27 PM): (okay, go to the end of the line Kisara. Malik can start)
so transiently (8:48:45 PM): Malik decided to start off this time.
so transiently (8:48:47 PM): so transiently rolled 1 10-sided die: 8
so transiently (8:48:54 PM): He stepped over it easily.
Omega19x (8:49:05 PM): Ryou clapped. "Good job!"
NinaBallerinaxD (8:49:22 PM): Pegasus smirked and tried to go over the pole.
NinaBallerinaxD (8:49:25 PM): NinaBallerinaxD rolled 1 10-sided die: 2
NinaBallerinaxD (8:49:54 PM): And he tripped and fell on his face, getting a mouthful of sand.
fai tiger (8:49:57 PM): Rebecca tried not to snicker at Pegasus' misfortune.
NinaBallerinaxD (8:50:28 PM): Pegasus got up and walked to the side.
Xdragon childeX (8:50:34 PM): Xdragon childeX rolled 1 10-sided die: 7
Xdragon childeX (8:51:05 PM): Pandora practically pranced over the dumb thing.
Omega19x (8:51:20 PM): Ryou got a little bit of a running start. "Here goes..."
Omega19x (8:51:21 PM): Omega19x rolled 1 10-sided die: 4
Omega19x (8:51:28 PM): And he just made it!
fai tiger (8:51:55 PM): Rebecca eyed the bar for a moment before giving it a try.
fai tiger (8:51:58 PM): fai tiger rolled 1 10-sided die: 2
fai tiger (8:52:36 PM): Unfortunately, she tripped over it.
Omega19x (8:52:41 PM): "...awww..."
silverbluedreams (8:52:59 PM): ((my turn right?))
Omega19x (8:53:24 PM): (yup)
fai tiger (8:53:45 PM): "Pegasus, I apologize for laughing at you," she said primly, sitting down next to him.
silverbluedreams (8:54:04 PM): silverbluedreams rolled 1 10-sided die: 1
NinaBallerinaxD (8:54:18 PM): "And I apologize for laughing in my head" pegasus smiled at Rebecca.
silverbluedreams (8:54:31 PM): Kisara gave it a try, and subsequently stumbled on it. Heels obviously were a bad idea.
Omega19x (8:54:52 PM): "... oww... Are you okay, Kisara?"
silverbluedreams (8:55:23 PM): Kisara managed a smile. "I'm fine. Guess I should have worn better shoes."
fai tiger (8:56:57 PM): "If it makes you feel any better, I don't think it mattered for me."
so transiently (8:58:21 PM): (( ... So that was like, half of the people eliminated in the first round? XD ))
fai tiger (8:58:37 PM): ((Yup!))
silverbluedreams (8:58:43 PM): ((we don't mix well with games))
Omega19x (8:58:47 PM): (yup. Round 2 = number to go over = 4)
so transiently (8:59:55 PM): Malik went up again.
so transiently (8:59:57 PM): so transiently rolled 1 10-sided die: 2
so transiently (9:00:07 PM): And tripped over it, falling flat on his face in the sand.
Omega19x (9:00:19 PM): "... Malik!"
Xdragon childeX (9:00:37 PM): Xdragon childeX rolled 1 10-sided die: 1
so transiently (9:00:50 PM): "Pffffff." He spat out a mouthful of sand. "Okay, that sucked."
silverbluedreams (9:00:52 PM): ((rofl((
Omega19x (9:01:09 PM): (trying to go under it, Pandora?)
Xdragon childeX (9:02:06 PM): Believing he didn't need a running start, Pandora jumped it... with one ankle still under it, of course, so he kind of took the bar with him.
Omega19x (9:02:46 PM): Omega19x rolled 1 10-sided die: 2
Xdragon childeX (9:02:49 PM): Face in the sand, he muffled something that might have been, "OWWW, my jaw... again~"
Omega19x (9:03:08 PM): Ryou did get a running start, tripped, and ended up rolling a couple of times in the sand.
Omega19x (9:03:24 PM): Landing on top of a still-not-quite-standing-yet Pandora...
Xdragon childeX (9:04:38 PM): Pandora didn't even have time to scream before getting plowed right back into the ground.
Omega19x (9:04:46 PM): *oomph*
Omega19x (9:04:53 PM): "... ow... s...sorry..."
so transiently (9:05:11 PM): "Wow. We're really bad at this."
silverbluedreams (9:06:10 PM): "But at least we're having fun doing it."
Omega19x (9:06:30 PM): (and murphy is right, we roll high numbers on the limbo contest, and low numbers on the jumping contest)
silverbluedreams (9:06:42 PM): ((murphy is always right))
Omega19x (9:06:44 PM): Ryou got off Pandora, and then offerend him a hand up.
Omega19x (9:07:36 PM): "... sorry about that..."
Xdragon childeX (9:08:10 PM): "Th'okay," Pandora slurred, taking Ryou's hand. "And thankth." Wait, that didn't sound right. Making sure his teeth were still there, he noticed blood. "Great, I think I buthted my lip."
NinaBallerinaxD (9:08:48 PM): Pegasus snickered a little bit and tried to look away so Pandora wouldn't notice.
fai tiger (9:09:16 PM): "Do you think you need ice for it?" Rebecca asked.
Xdragon childeX (9:11:00 PM): "Nah, it'th fine. Let me jutht go clean it up and I'll be right back."
Omega19x (9:12:39 PM): "Isis is inside, she'll show you where the bathroom is." Ryou pointed up the stairs that led to her back door.
Omega19x (9:12:57 PM): "... maybe we should take a puff break before falling in the sand again..."
Omega19x (9:13:09 PM): That, and we wouldn't want the coconut puffs to get too cold.
fai tiger (9:13:57 PM): "Oh, yes, good idea. I didn't get a change to have any before joining the limbo line."
Xdragon childeX (9:14:12 PM): "Thankth a lot," Pandora half-smiled before ducking inside.
silverbluedreams (9:14:28 PM): "The banana ones are very good."
so transiently (9:14:46 PM): "Yeah, can't let a good puff go to waste, now~"
Omega19x (9:15:02 PM): "Banana guava." Ryou smiled.
NinaBallerinaxD (9:15:04 PM): "I want one" pegasus said cheerfully.
Omega19x (9:15:11 PM): "help yourselves!
NinaBallerinaxD (9:15:37 PM): Pegasus practically flug himself at the table just to take one and walk away.
fai tiger (9:16:18 PM): Rebecca headed over to the table a little more sedately.
silverbluedreams (9:20:43 PM): Kisara sampled a few more different puffs.
Omega19x (9:20:58 PM): Ryou took a minute to enjoy a pineapple macademia nut puff.
NinaBallerinaxD (9:22:04 PM): "These are really good, Ryou" Pegasus patted Ryou on the back.
Omega19x (9:23:31 PM): "Thanks."
NinaBallerinaxD (9:23:47 PM): [[ack, I have to go!! I'm so sorry]]
Omega19x (9:23:58 PM): (aww.. byebye.)
fai tiger (9:24:01 PM): ((Aw, bye!))
Omega19x (9:24:03 PM): (glad you could come!)
silverbluedreams (9:24:33 PM): ((byebye!))
so transiently (9:24:49 PM): (( Bye~ ))
NinaBallerinaxD (9:24:54 PM): Pegasus's cell phone rang and he picked it up. After a few minutes of talking, he hung up,"I'm sorry, but I have to leave the party. I have an urgent call that needs to be attended to"
NinaBallerinaxD (9:25:06 PM): [[there you go :-)]]
Omega19x (9:25:21 PM): (that's one way to do it!)
so transiently (9:25:58 PM): "Oh. Well. Glad you could hang out, then." Malik gave him a wave.
silverbluedreams (9:26:31 PM): "Bye Pegasus. It was nice to see you."
NinaBallerinaxD (9:27:16 PM): "Bye everyone" Pegasus waved as he walked out,"Again, I'm sorry for leaving so early"
Omega19x (9:27:57 PM): "Well... what do you guys want to do next? It's a really pretty night... There's an ocean right here... lots of sand... and plenty more puffs."
NinaBallerinaxD has left the chat room.
silverbluedreams (9:32:35 PM): ((sandcastle anyone?))
Xdragon childeX (9:33:16 PM): Pandora finally came back outside, lip cleaned up but still swollen. "Did I mith thomething?"
fai tiger has left the chat room.
fai tiger declined your invitation to chat.
fai tiger declined your invitation to chat.
fai tiger has left the chat room.
fai tiger has entered the chat room.
Omega19x (9:34:55 PM): (saaaaaaaandcastle!)
fai tiger (9:35:11 PM): ((*sees how long AIM behaves this time*))
Omega19x (9:39:06 PM): "Just the pretty relaxing night, Pandora." Ryou smiled. "Cream puff?"
Xdragon childeX (9:42:06 PM): "Okay," Pandora smiled gratefully and took a pineapple macadamia nut puff.
Omega19x (9:42:31 PM): "Help yourselves." Ryou smiled. "The evening is still young."
