_____ Cici smiled, she had impressed him! Some what, "Well of course you can come by, I'm actually really good at it! I-I mean I can't get my eyes to be as scary big, but I'm pretty good at it" she said proudly. She could buy the best wigs, and buy the best costumes. So of course she was good at it! She looked nervously in the water, and gave Percy a smirk, "Oh? Will you! Well you better!" She grabbed his hand and marched into the water with him, "And even if you can't at least be a human shield!" _____

 __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ - Eleanor Vatonage, Rune Vatonage, Blaire Vatonage, Lucas Grey, & Alice 'Madame Mia' Ladd - __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After a little of wandering about, Ellie had set up a towel at a decent length from the shore. She was now sitting there with Rune, the two making a sand castle... Or well attempting, Rune was pretty much throwing sand everywhere, and giggling. Which had the duo in their own little world for a bit."So you're signing up?" "Yup. Been dying to take a swim. Maybe I'll even win~" "Hah, don't get your hopes up Aquaman!" "Shut up!" Yes, it was a normal day for these two. Their bickering was no exception. But it was playful, so no worrying there. Besides, they looked like a couple, especially in swimwear. Blaire was actually surprised when she saw an approaching Conor. She hadn't seen him since... well that jail thing. While she returned the excitement, Lucas was too busy glaring at him. "Been a while for me too" said the girl with a smile. Well with school and looking after Rune... though she came, not to sport a bikini like today though. A good bikini, that suited her well, especially her slight curves. It wasn't something exaggerated, but it was definitely nice on the eyes. Lucas wasn't half bad either, though one would say it was because of his love for sports... Okay he was fit. He was just too much of a sissy to admit. According to Blaire. Now maybe Conor was ignoring Lucas... but he wasn't helping either by glaring... Oh if looks could kill. Alice had been walking for a bit around the beach. It was pretty relaxing, even if just walking. Everyone seemed busy, and enjoying it. Pretty normal, up until... The woman found herself looking at a man in a button-down shirt and slacks... at a beach. Well, she couldn't help it. "Isn't that a bit formal for the beach?" asked Alice. Actually, she was pretty curious, though... She probably wasn't one to talk with her eye-patch and usual dress. Eh never mind... The woman near him was familiar... was she at the club some time ago? Most likely.

  Silly? Kade's face fell. But.. he thought it was fun.. He was enjoying it, anyway! Though, if Kim thought it was silly, then Kade was just being stupid for enjoying it, wasn't he? ..No! No, Kade, don't do that! Smile! So, he did! He stood up and giggled, even if Kim was calling him silly for enjoying a game of leapfrog in the ocean! “It is, um, kinda silly, isn't it?” He stated with a glance down at the water again. Oh, it was cold standing up like that! He'd already gotten used to sitting in the water, the wind itself was making areas of himself just shrink! He ducked back down to sit into the water again, sitting cross-legged and getting comfortable. “You don't have to do it, we can do something else! What do you want to do, then? Um, water polo..? No, that's no fun with only two.. We could race! But, then, you'll get tired for the swimming contest and I know you'll beat me.. Um. What about..” He paused – well. Pretending that they were mermaids on the search for the golden seashell harmonica didn't sound like something that Yoakim would like to do either.. Oh, foo. He was stumped!
~~~~
Conor stared up and down at Blaire before he could stop himself – No! Why would he stop himself?! He was Conor! They should feel privileged that he was even taking a look! Right?! Yeah! Conor for the win! He grinned for a few seconds before that faltered into some kind of.. timid, nervous thing that didn't suit his mouth one bit. He had to say something, quick! He was just staring at her for no reason – there was.. er, something, anything.. had to be.. “You got tits.” He blurted out before he could stop himself – god damn it, he doesn't need to 'stop' himself for anything! He was Conor! CONOR! He swallowed. Yeah, it wasn't ******** working. “Why don't you got any, Lucy?” He turned his head towards the blond with a smirk, “Figured you'd grow some by now.” Yes, plan B! Insulting Lucas was the best way to impress Blaire!

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________ - Blaire Vatonage & Lucas Grey - __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Out of all the things he could've said... that? Really? Well THAT had Blaire looking to the side with a red face. If only because it was him who used to tease her about that when they were little. Well they were pre-teens, so development had been expected... just that Blaire took a bit longer. "S-Shut up!" she replied about a second later.Lucas however did not take it lightly, which had him frowning at the comment. Back to glaring at the name. Lucy!? Correction he gritted his teeth slightly... How he hated that nickname! He was happy enough when he moved! Because every frigging day it had been the same... Ugh. Wait what!? Lucas glanced at the other with a raised eyebrow, before looking him up and down. "Is that what you're shirt is for? Figured yours would be huge by now" replied the blond with his own smirk. So he got to his level... but he wasn't the little kid Conor could bully anymore.

  For once it was Kade who had trouble finding something to say rather than the blacksmith. Usually Kade would just blur out whatever came thought hismind which would make Yoakim fell awkward most of the time. However, this one time, he felt like he had an advantage over the boy. That felt... good. "Uhm... well... I won't stop you if you want to keep at it... just don't expect me to join you." He said with a timid smile. He was the serious type, sure, but he couldn't make Kade stop doing it and be bored. And if they were to find something that both of them would enjoy... well... that would take some time. "Uhmm... I dunno what we could do... you know me, Mister Serious..." Had that been a name that the bluehaired boy had given him before? Perhaps.

Leila brought a finger to her chin and looked up to enphase the fact that she was thinking. Men could be stupid sometimes, you had to give them as many hints as possible about what you where doing... or wanted them to believe you were doing depending on the situation. "Well... Everyone was rather busy talking to people they already knew.... or were kid. You were the best choice out of them!" No, she hadn't say he was interesting. That was only saying that he was the less boring of the bunch. There was a difference. "And afterall, I am talking to prince... uh... Albert, was it? From... Finand? Or was it Duke? I don't remember. Anyway, Royalty is always interesting!" She giggled a bit before looking back at him. Well, royalty was interesting when they weren't hobos.... when was the last time he had changed his clothes? Oh Gross! Ew! "You do wash your clothes once in a while, right?" Tact? What was that?

Gaston looked at the papers Gladice handed to him and frowned. What? He was to.. do it for her? But, he was mayor! King! Emperor! He shouldn't have to start peasant contests! It should be the work of one of his servants, like the old bat who was just lounging on the beach doing nothing! He pouted for a second and drawled out a sigh. “I suppose if the people want me that much, I can't not do it! It must be done! Hurry, Rebecca, hand me a microphone!” He extended his hand towards a nameless (well, now she was named! Such a happy day for NPC female maid!) servant, who gave him a said microphone. Of course, every festival had speakers outfitted around for the king to speak through! How else would the people hear his voice?!
“Hello, my people! I am here to announce the swimming contest may begin! Anyone wishing to join should go.. stand over there. Where the water starts.. And.. er.”
He paused and looked at Gladice helplessly. ..How was this supposed to start, anyway?

Gladice sigh heavily. So much for her calm and relaxing day at the beach. Oh well, making fun of Gaston was good enough as it is. She stood and walked toward the man, snatching the microphone from his hand. "Now, people. Because our lousy mayor took so long to start the countess, you have all notice that the Sandcatle has been cancelled. The Swimming contess will still be hold but... will be shortened a bit. Basicly... just swim and the first to... reach that rock there wins. Simple enough, right?" Yeah, that was probably the most screw festival of the year... or maybe it was the Treasure Hunt... it had ended pretty badly too.
This year only rules!
Rolll a dice... Who ever roll the highest wins. If two people roll the same, they roll again. Simple.

Gaston scowled when she called him 'lousy'. What?! He was Gaston! He wasn't at all 'lousy', he was utter perfection! Mummy said so! He took a deep breath and turned his nose up, looking in the opposite direction to show just how much he didn't care for the old lady. ..At least the contest was starting. Finally..
~~~~
Kade was watching Yoakim with the biggest pout yet! He didn't know what to do?! Then why was he saying no to his leapfrog games?! It was better than nothing, at least! He stayed huddled in the water, staring at his reflection in a miffed sort of way. Not that he usually was this easily frustrated by Yoakim, but there was a ton of stuff eating at him lately and.. Well. His only two confidants were Kim and Ellie, but he couldn't go to them! He would talk to Fleurette, but she.. she was his coworker! This kind of stuff was serious and.. no offense to the girl, he loved her to death, but she loved gossip as much as he did! ..Well, kinda! She listened to him and gave him the gasps and squeals along with him when he spoke.. so, that meant.. she could enjoy it.. Point was, he couldn't open up to her either! So, he was being easily annoyed. For a few seconds before he heard the announcement. The contest?! He grinned again and jumped to his feet, “The contest is starting, Kim! Go on, go on! I wanna cheer for you!” He said excitedly as he shoved the man back onto dry land. Or gave him a small shove before dashing off to get his hat, sunglasses, and megaphone again, then off to find a good seat~! He found Ellie pretty quick, sitting alone with Rune, and decided to sit down next to her to watch the race.

Oh? There was.. a swimming contest? Zhi, who had been doing nothing but wandering, looked over at the old woman. Well, she had her make up all on and everything! She couldn't.. she shouldn't.. but.. but! Look, she loved to show off! It was a part of her very nature! And a contest?! Her?! No, she couldn't just ignore it and walk on by! She had to join it! And win it! It was her destiny, as swimming champion! She smirked confidently and walked over to where.. well, where the water's edge sat. When did they start..? She glanced back and forth at the very disorganized line up starting, then settled her eyes onto the rock sitting in the distance. ..Well. If she was disqualified, who cared? So, the girl headed straight into the water and started to swim as fast as she could to said rock! Free forming it the whole way!

 Conor narrowed his eyes at Lucas, a snarl starting with that little comeback. The ********? Lucas never said s**t when Conor teased them! Of course, they were little kids.. and Conor was.. a bit bigger than Lucas. Now, he was the smaller of the pair, if only because Lucas was.. much healthier and more fit than Conor was. Conor liked to light s**t on fire, not ******** stab them! That was Keith department, so upper arm strength? Not as good as someone who was lifting weights or exercising. Still. That didn't ******** matter. Conor was still much better than Lucas was, no questions asked! That meant no backtalk and, in the language Conor loved best when it came to guys like Lucas, he was about to jump him right there. ..Though.
The contest started. He looked over at Keith's grandma and frowned. He rolled his eyes and turned his head back towards Lucas, but the guy was already heading off! To start that swim! He growled something and kicked some sand, which lead to some more getting caught in his shoes. Oh, ******** it! He looked at Blaire, but the girl was probably too focused on either being embarrassed or cheering on Lucas. Which made him.. angry. He looked back at the blond and sneered, kicking off his shoes and pulling off his shirt. He didn't have a swimsuit, but he could still swim! ..Sorta.. Either way, the boy was at the starting line, standing next to Lucas. He only moved to get into the water when the blond did. Winning didn't matter, not so much as beating the pansy to that damned rock!

Yoakim smiled at Kade. Could anything down the boy for longer than a minutes? He was such a blue lightning bolt sometimes, it was funny. He wouldn't tell him but, he was happy to know that the boy was cheering on him. It felt.. nice. He didn't really bother winning, he wasn't that good of a swimmer but, it was still fun to know that people where routing on you. He made his way to the dry land then walked where everyone were getting ready to swim. He noticed Conor and rolled his eyes. He didn't even know what to think about that... He got ready and started to swim. He wasn't quite happy with his time, but he did notice he had arrived a bit faster than some people. That had surprised him... he realy didn't belive he had went all that fast... maybe the other just sucked at it? What he knew, however, was that there was a girl that arrived practically at the same time as him. Where there anyone who went there before him?

Okay, good! He was washing himself! That was good. That meant that she could still sit somewhat close to him! Somewhat... "Oh? Where are everyone going?" She asked once she notice that people where all heading toward the same spot. Was it...? Yes! It was! It was a swimming competetion! How Kitsch! "Do you know how to swim? You could join in! If you win you might get enough money to rent a room at the inn or something. They are very cheep." It was true. They cost only a quarter of what you would have paid in the city. "Well, either way, I'll go watch!" She wouldn't join. Joining would mean getting wet and ruining her precious hair! She spent so many hours getting them in that style! That ponytail was very complicated to do! She got up from where she was sitting and walked toward the contestant. She simply stood there, not to far from them all, with a hand on her hips. Yep, be sexy even when no one is looking at you. This is what makes a woman into a real woman!
