"WHAAAT? HE IS SO NOT!" Roch yelped, shoving Rikki off of him, then shoving him with his foot for good measure. "You d**k, go back to makin' out with the starfish!" Then he flushed, realizing that Circe looked... awfully happy for some reason. "I don't like boils like that," he told her. "Jack, now I feel dirty. Can I have that hug, after all?"

"ROCHESTER SCYTHE! HOW COULD YOU JUST SHOVE ME ASIDE FOR SOME HARLOT?!" He clenched his fists and his side, and had this been a cartoon he might be red faced and have steam puffing out of his ears. "After all we've been through together! I can't believe you!"
Rikki actually managed to hold his enraged act for a moment - a whole moment- before is all disappeared in a fluid transition. One minute he was an infuriated, hurt boilfriend, the next he was all boil. His frame slouched slightly, his stance shifted wider, and suddenly he was just normal Rikki again. "Actually. I take that back. You can have her. I'm going to go check out Danny and Bea's castle. Catch you there later?" He glanced to the ghoul for a second to throw her a wink, and almost as an after thought, offered his name. "Nyyrikki Synkka."

O...O
"If you don't then why did he?" She asked with a blank look in her eyes. The confusion of this moment was far beyond her comprehension so she simply shrugged and happily hugged the boil. And then the black haired boil said something that instantly made her turn her head and her hold on Roch tightened.
Did he really just call her a harlot? Was the boil reealllyyy dumb? Or was she just imagining it due to the heat?
Circe simply nodded, not trusting herself enough to speak. After he had given his name Circe looked up at Roch with a frown. "Did he just call me a harlot?" She asked, pretending like she was about to cry. Maybe it wasn't that far of a stretch. Then again, she did hug everyone and flirt like a champ. No. This Nyyrikki guy was on her bad list forever now. And Roch was well on his way now for letting him say that.
Suddenly Circe felt very sad.

"No, he was talking about the starfish," Roch told her, hugging her back. "It tried to get in his pants like, seconds after meeting him," he explained. " Dude, get lost already," he hissed at Rikki, tempted to kick him again. " Or I'm gonna haveta kick your a** again." "So how's your sandcastle comin?" he asked Circe, giving her an easy grin as if he hadn't just threatened one of his best bros. "Who all's on your team? All I got are some jerky boils and an ice demon, who's hiding under a ton of umbrellas."

Rikki lingered just long enough to make it awkward, and then snickered and slipped away with a final, teasing wave at Circe.

Circe didn't believe Roch for a minute, especially with Rikki's snicker and wave. However she let it go when she felt Roch hug her back. She could forgive him for not defending her honor sooner. Though, he hadn't especially did so anyways.
"We finished it! Well, Elle did." She said, returning his smile before point at the slimer-ghost boil. At his next question Circe wrapped both her arms around him again, though not really hugging him. "Besides me and Elle there is Zurine and Holly." She nodded. "Who all is on your team?" She asked curiously. "I'll know who to avoid later." Circe grinned.

He glanced in the ghost boil's direction before shrugging. "We've got Moure, he's the patchwork over there, Aksaja, who's a dragon of some sort, never did ask, Rikki, who's being a punk because he's between ghoulfriends at the moment, I guess, and Edel, who's a seriously classy... ice demon, so she's trying not to melt. I wanted to get some first years, but eh, I know these guys better." He pulled out of her hold and turned towards the sandcastle. "Check this out! I found a cousin of mine!" he told her, pointing at the sea urchin proudly.

"So handsome." Circe said with wide googly eyes, not really noticing that she said it out loud and so loudly. "This trial is becoming more and more awesome!" She exclaimed as Roch pulled out of her hold. Circe looked toward the umbrella's. "I would hate to be an ice demon today." She said before looking at the sandcastle Roch was pointing at. "How can that be your cousin?" Circe asked as she stepped closer and inspected it. "It's spikey like your hair.... But it's not a reaper?"

"He is handsome! But still, that's species-ism," Roch told her. "And it's a LOT like my hair, so I claim him! Course, I had to use the forks to move him, he's pretty spiky. Then there's this big hairy ball that I found, not sure, but I think it's hollow," he said, pointing at the coconut. "There's a lot of weird stuff here, y'know?" he told her, turning back to her. "It's pretty cool other than the heat and the sunburn thing!"
He looked around, avoiding looking at the sun. "I kinda like the human world," he admitted. "Which is probably a good thing, considering I'm a grim reaper." He suddenly wanted to see this "Rochester, England." He wondered if he could go there after graduating sometime.

A . . . fancy house huh? Okay then. Aksaja started sort of started piling up sand randomly trying to make it look like some kind of house. What he ended up with after a few minutes was a rounded mound with some pretty random holes poked in it for windows and doors.
Nope. This wasn't working at all.
But at least it was something, right? After that, he stayed beside their "castle" to try and make sure no one came along and knocked it over or something.

Moure had been working up until they closed the construction time, and looked to his team's glorious...pile of sand. Any pride that the patchwork may have had deflated immediately. Hopefully this wasn't a contest judged by appearances. It was a, uh, mountain. That's all. It was a very sturdy mountain. Right.
It was so unfair that their one team-mate who actually sculpted on a regular basis pretty much wasn't allowed to help for this trial.
Moure glanced up from the castle when he heard Roch yelping about some kind of burn. And someone hugging him. And then Rikki acting as if they were dating. And then the new ghoul, Circe, asking if those two were dating. Moure blinked, wondering just how many people accused Roch of dating boils. At least it wasn't directed at him this time. (That Haunted House ghost-thing would forever appall him for asking if he and Roch were in a relationship.)
He caught snippets of Roch and this ghoul's conversation, including the line about who was on Roch's team and then his name and description. He looked to the two of them and gave the reapers a slight wave as a sign that he'd heard his name.
Out of the corner of his eye, he thought he saw Edel stirring. Aksaja looked like he could hold down their...fort, so Moure gave him a nod and quickly got up.
Thoughts now focused on how he could help Edel, he brushed the sand off his arms (knowing it would probably take a lot more than just that to get it out of his stitches later, but trying anyway) and swiftly moved to the frost demon's side. He re-ajusted the umbrellas to block the sun better and then looked around for something to fan her off with. No such luck. He took to attempting to fan her with his hand, concern still covering his face. He gave her hand a soft squeeze with his other one. "Hey, is there anything I can do to help? Do you think the ocean water could cool you down a bit?" Moure wanted to do something to help her. If that meant carrying her to a refreshment stand and asking a gnome for some ice, or the ocean, or anything really, so be it.

[entered with Kiana/Circe] The sun and sand wasn’t the best on his complexion. The slimer fortunately really had no skin to burn off, but had green slime-flesh that could dry from the heat and saltiness of their surroundings. He took some of the extra seaweed they had found, and wrapped it around himself as he followed his black-eyed team mate to another castle, one of many the surrounded the island. The ghost stayed a good distance back. He was watching Circe and the other team chat amongst themselves, though he couldn’t hear anything, he was trying to read their expressions. He would wave at them at times, when Circe and the boil would turn towards his direction. His face was cheerful, even when he felt like he was drying like a prune. He slipped by them as he noticed the forest of umbrellas and hoped to find some solace in it. If they were going to have tour of the rest of the island, he would need to keep as much of the moisture in him as much as he could. The boil found more than solace as he drew closer to the umbrellas as he found some occupants beneath them. “Hi,” he stammered, peeling off some seaweed around his green hued face, “Is it ok if I cooled down here a bit with you two?”

[Exiting because I'm going to bed and don't want to risk not doing this later. XD]
Circe couldn't help but laugh at Roch and his 'cousin'. "Well I guess whatever floats your boat." She said, smiling and looking at Roch. "I don't know what any of these things are. But I do think it's got spikey hair like you." She said messing up his hair with her fingers. "Yeah there are! We have a real fake bird thing and SEAWEED OAO!" As if seaweed was somehow magical and mysterious.
"One day when we are big and deadly we'll be able to come here and collect FEAR!" She grinned. Oh if only that day could come much much sooner. But alas it was not to be. She was no where near the level she needed to be, though she might not openly admit that to just anyone.
And then the ghoul realized that she still had other sandcastles to see, or hopefully she would see them. Circe smiled and looked to Roch, hugging him tightly and then letting him go quickly. "I've got a lot more sandcastles to see. But when the trials are over we should hangout again! Maybe next time we can have one of those pizza wars." She winked before walking over to the path and moving on to the next group's sandcastle, waving as she walked away.

WAVE 1: CRABS, CRABBBBBBBBBBBBS HP 40/40Scuttling right towards the team was an army of oversized crabs, their pincers waving menacingly. They were ready to destroy all things sand and castle related. CRAB DEFENSE MECHANICS: CRAB VERSUS THE CASTLEOdd = Offense Even = Defense THIS CRAB HAS 11 OFFENSE POINTS. (( First of all, don't forget to add the additional status from the Daily status effects to your sandcastle )) - This crab is trying to do 11 damage OFFENSIVE against the sandcastle. That means you have to match your DEFENSIVE damage against this crab's offense. Subtract your defense against this crab's offense points. IF your sandcastle is higher, you take no damage! If it is lower, subtract the HP value from your castle's HP. One person must RP out their sandcastle standing against the crabs or taking damage, and edit the first post sandcastle's HP as necessary (at least, though various reaction posts while battling is fine) CRAB VERSUS THE CONTESTANTS- EVEN IF YOUR CASTLE STOPS THE CRABS, you still need to delegate them away from your castle, so they do not hurt YOU. There is nothing stopping it from hurting YOU. - Roll NORMALLY (no Fear charges), 2d6 -6 if you are a Y1, 2d8 - 6 if you are a Y2 to determine your damage AGAINST THE CRABS. Year 1's have 30 HP, Y's have 40. - The crab has a sum total of 40 HP. Every time you hit the crab, you take 5 damage. If your TEAM LEADER is KO'ed your group is disqualified! - You can hit the crab as many times as needed until it is dead. If your crab is not dead by the end of the OOC 24 hours/ one round, the crab will berserk and take out half your sandcastle's HP. - To attack the crab, once again, roll your attack, WRITE UP YOUR RP POST, and subtract 5 from your HP every time. Make sure to also post at the bottom of your post Your total HP, the damage you do to the crab, and the crab's total (remaining HP.

Of all the things Aksaja was watching for - people kicking their castle over, walking too close and collapsing it somehow, or whatever - he was not expecting to suddenly shrink. Or for there to be giant crabs. But then again, they were probably normal-sized since he was now tiny. What was the point of this?!!
"Jacking hell!" he spat out, then yelled to whichever of his teammates might be in hearing range, "Better get back over here guys!!"
Then he tried to put himself in the crab's path, attempting to jump on top of it to slow it down or something. Aaand just barely missing. Then it pinched him. Ow, dammit.
(( Will let someone else do the castle HP lol
HP: 35/40
Damage: 0
Crab HP: 40/40 ))
