[CLOSED] - Party on the beach where the fun is free...

[floatsaway]

🧙 WHO: My Hero Academia Cast!!
⚔️️ WHAT: BEACH EPISODE!!!
🕒 WHEN: Now's good. :U
🗺️ WHERE: Beach!!
⚠️ WARNINGS: Wacky shenanigans, Bakugou's potty mouth, overwhelming cuteness, BATHING SUITS?? Scandalous.


It has been a long month. A long several months for some who may need a bit of R&R and a ton of fun to drive the woes of those last few months away. With the weather growing warmer, the desire to keep cool grew with it...and what better way than with a big splash and a ton of fun?! Getting everyone together to coordinate a Beach Party was...difficult, but doable. Even those outside of Class 1-A were invited to have fun and enjoy themselves down by the sandy shore. Make sure to bring your bathing suits and belongings, this party's going on until the next morning!!


i. Stay Hydrated! (Swimming, water balloon/gun competitions, drowning your rival, etc.)

First thing's first, everyone in the water!! Sunblock up and get your H2O on in the best way possible! Coolers have been set up filled with frosty beverages as well as some, well...ammunition. Of course there's going to be water fights, what did you take this form?! Arm yourselves, Heroes, for a battle has been declared by one or several of your peers! Waterguns have been loaded up for those who wish to partake, and water balloons as well, but the true heavy hitters are those with elemental magic!! Show your stuff in a climactic battle against one another. Who will be the last one standing in this aquatic free for all?! WILL IT BE YOU?!





Please Note: Actual attempts to drown anyone for more than 3 seconds will result in being put under the Time Out Umbrella (of Shame). Don't be a dummy, commit heinous acts responsibly.

ii. Nitty Gritty (Sandcastle contest, beach volleyball, sunbathing, looking for shells/tidepools, burying your rival, etc.)

And after people have "cooled off" somewhat, enjoy drying off on the sand. Tanning, sunbathing and getting some color...the sky's the limit! Just beware of any stray volleyballs coming your way, Heroes, the competition is rightfully heating up like the midday sun! Seems nothing stays calm for too long when the raucous youths are having a good time. But, for those wanting a competition that's a little less strenuous, why not try your hand at building the most elaborate and well crafted sandcastle? Magic NOT allowed for this one, folks! Only the manliest of men and the truest of Heroes use their own sweaty palms to build something from nothing. Get to work!

Or, you know...you can just bury yourself or your partner in the and and make them into a parody of beefy muscle form All Might, or a gorgeous mermaid, if that's your thing. I'm not your sensei.





Please Note: Actual attempts to bury anyone in a hole dug to the specifications of a grave will result in being put under the Time Out Umbrella (of Shame). Don't be a dummy, commit heinous acts responsibly.

iii. I'M ON FI-YAAH (grilling/BBQ, late night bonfire activities (stories/songs), s'mores, dancing, etc.)

Wow, all that fun sure does work up an appetite! Not to worry, Heroes (and potential party crashers), food will be provided as well! Delicious barbequed meats - skewers, burgers, hotdogs, and even some grilled fish, too!! Get luck and find some clams in the sands? Heck yeah, let's start up a clam bake!1 The night is your oyster...er, clam! There's plenty here for everyone, so don't feel like you're being greedy! And of course, later in the evening when the fire has died down but the embers are still hot, marshmallows will be toasted to make the most fantastically scrumptious s'mores for all the sweets lovers out there. Enjoy a summer treat and share with friends!

But of course, bonfires aren't only there for food! How about some singing, dancing, and music? Or maybe a more...devilish campfire activity? Come up with the most gruesome, the most gory, the most horrifying tale to utterly spook Urara--I meaaan...your fellow friends and students.





Please Note: Actual attempts to spook or scare Uraraka will result in being put under the Time Out Umbrella (of Shame) ALL NIGHT!! ALLLLL NIGHT! NO FUN FOR YOU. AND NO S'MORES. THEY'RE MINE NOW. >:T Don't be a dummy, commit heinous acts responsibly A JERK!!!!

iv. You're a Sky Full of Stars (stargazing and camping out on the beach)

At long last, the party is over and the night is calm and quiet. The final dying embers of the fire are but dim specks of red and orange, but the true fire is burning up above. Far from the light pollution of Camelot proper, million of stars dot the velveteen blackness of space in a beautiful portrait of speckled beauty. Keep your eyes up, maybe looking long enough one could see a shooting star. Make a wish, quick!! But don't tell it to anyone...

Then, curl up in the large tents that were brought along for a night of restful sleep. After such a long and fun-filled day, it's certainly needed for all. Just behave yourselves and don't be too loud so as to wake or rouse your neighbors, either.





Please Note: Any attempts to canoodle with anyone will result in being put IN A CHOKEHOLD, MOTHERFUCKER, TEST ME. Don't be a dummy, commit your illicit acts responsibly and behind closed doors.

Laughing, Ochako takes a long sip of her drink and sighs again. This is really good...Momo sure as heck knows how to brew a good batch of tea, regardless of if it's iced or hot.

"Ehehe, you're right about that!!" Tokoyami always making everything he says sound so gloomy and dark, almost sinister in a...really kind of charming way that only he can pull off. It's odd, but each of the boys are so, heh...quirky in their own ways. "I really like that about him, though! And that some of the boys are really easy to talk to!! It makes it easier to feel connected to them all, you know? S'why I'm so happy so many of you are here."

[frogiveness]

"It does make everything that much more bearable, yes. I would be lost without the rest of you."

She knows that, and she's known that since she arrived. Being alone is fine, but being alone in a stressful and weird situation like this is something that is definitely NOT fine. She'd have cracked under pressure weeks ago, she's certain.

"...but you're right about the boys. Even Bakugou and I have found an understanding."

[floatsaway]

That feeling, again, is shared. If the rest of them weren't all here, if Ochako was all on her own...she'd probably be is a much worse state than she is right now. There's just something about them all being together that just makes everyone that much stronger, more capable, and overall better at what they do. They are a unit, a family, a very close-knit group of friends who support and love each other.

Ochako nods her head, then chuckles a bit, behind her hand as she scans the beach for that familiar head of blond, spikey hair. When she finds it (probably under the time out umbrella), her look is fond and happy. It's been a bumpy ride with her and Bakugou lately, but--

"He's really grown a lot, hasn't he? It's kinda weird to think about, how he used to be versus how he is now, but I'm really glad Bakugou-kun's getting along more with everyone...and that he decided to come today. It's not the same when he's not here." Because as feisty and loud as he is, even their most explosive classmate is an integral part of their group.

"Mmh..." Ochako brings up her knees and hugs them tight, leaning a cheek on the top of them. "I'm really, really happy...I met you all."

[frogiveness]

That makes Tsuyu nod, because yeah, he has grown a lot. They all have, but him most of all. He's gone from a complete turd to someone who shows companionship and amiability in his own way. It's a little weird, and he's still an ass, but he's their ass, and she can't really imagine the class without him.

"...He kinda has, yeah..." she murmurs, settling down next to Ochako. She even leans in a little, just resting against her bestie's shoulder. It's hard not to get a little quiet, hearing something like that last bit, and so she mulls it over for a few moments before she actually says anything.

"It's beyond anything...I ever really dreamed about. UA, and you all, have been the best thing that's ever happened to me."

[floatsaway]

Exactly right - Bakugou is still Bakugou: loud, irritable, an ass indeed, but reliable, kind in his own way, and inspirational. Each person fits into the class like a singular piece of a puzzle. Take even one away, and the picture will remain incomplete - that's just how they are now. The bond their class shares with one another is so tightly bound it's impossible to pull apart.

The action is so commonplace that Ochako doesn't even think twice to lean he head atop Tsuyu's, moving an arm to curl around her best friend's shoulder in a one-armed hug. "Mm, I agree completely. I still never expected to make it into UA at all. Ehehe, you should have seen how ugly and gross my face was from how hard I cried when I got my acceptance letter!! My mama was laughing so hard at me and taking pictures."

You know, like a mom would, to embarrass their sweet and beloved child.

[frogiveness]

"Really? You didn't think you'd get in?"

That gets Tsu to sit up just a little bit straighter, looking at her curiously before shaking her head in denial of the thought. That's stupid, and she knows it.

"You're really dedicated, and your quirk is top notch. There's no way you wouldn't have gotten in. I saw how you were during the test, and I just knew you were gonna."

Absolutely, positively no room for doubt in this. Tsuyu is adamant, if the furrow of her froggy brow is any indication. So says your friend, Ochako.

[floatsaway]

"Mm-mm...I knew the test was really, really hard...and at the time, I still wasn't completely used to pushing myself so hard with my quirk. B-Besides, I'm um...n-not all that smart."

Though she studied and studied hard for the written exam at UA, because if it meant becoming a Professional Hero, doing her best and reaching a point where she'd be so acclaimed...and compensated for her Heroics, then it meant that she could finally give her mother and father the carefree life they deserved. Entering UA was the easiest way to really rocket herself to that point, because it was the best of the best. In order to get in, she had to be the best of the best.

W-Which is why Tsuyu's praise sort of blindsides Ochako and she flushes, ducking her head down into her shoulders and poking her index fingers together.

"Eeeh...th-thank you, Tsu-chan. B-But I still feel like, um...i-if not for Deku-kun, I may not have made it. I didn't realize the rescue points were a thing at all, you know? B-But I couldn't just let him fall after he saved me!! He risked it all, j-just to make sure I was okay, and--" ...And she did the same. Ochako wasn't really thinking of the exam at that point, when Deku was falling. She just had to help him, save him, make sure he didn't get hurt. Ochako realizes this now, and covers her face to hide her blush.

Jeez...she's so dumb.

[frogiveness]

"Oh. You didn't realize?"

Tsuyu had at least somewhat assumed that helping people was a sure fire way to get into the school. It made sense based on what she knew of UA, and, well, it tracked a bit with her personal philosophy, so confirmation bias there.

It was a test, not a competition, in a sense. And what kind of test for heroes would exclude the opportunity for heroics.

"Well. You got in. And you are plenty smart. Don't be down on yourself, Ochako. Just...um...remember the other day. Where you drank the poison. That's heroic. And that's what UA is about."

Plus...Ultra? she's bad at this kind of peptalk. she is very good at decrees though.
