[OPEN MINGLE] if everybody had an ocean
Who: Eleanor and YOU!
What: Elly's beach party!
Where:: The beach!
When: Within the first week of June
Warnings: Hopefully none, just beach shennanigans
Eleanor's hosting a beach party! Although it's primarily meant for her and her friends, everyone is welcome. So come and partake in some swimming, some games, and even the food! Feel free to respond to the prompts here or to create your own below :)can you tell i like the beach boys
1] Then Everybody'd Be Surfin'
The party is in full swing, with games on the go and a few Pokemon splashing about in the shallows. Eleanor's taken it upon herself to double up as a lifeguard, keeping an eye on those less adept at swimming should they enter the water. She knows it'll probably be fine, since it is just shallow waves. But perhaps someone who is too small is trying to recklessly catch them with no clue as to how surfing works. Regardless, she stands relatively close to the water, before finally splashing in herself to try and catch up with one of her friends.
2] Like Californ-I-A
When she's not by the water, Eleanor can be found participating in a rather janky game of volleyball. Originally she'd tried to see if the game would work with one of her bubbles, but they've acquiesced and borrowed a ball from the sports club. It's not like she can't go grab it should it get knocked into the ocean. But still, the game is tough and more than a little confusing for her, so she's quick to dip out to go and peruse the snack options instead. There's a lot of cut up fresh fruit, some grilled veggie skewers, and even a couple of meat options for the more carnivorously inclined. All of it freshly cooked on a small firepit. She's mostly helping herself to the fruit - it's an assortment of berries and what... could probably be melons? She's not actually sure, since a lot of the snacks and food has been provided by other Pokemon. The melon pieces appear to have been smashed, though. In fact, there's someone blindfolded and trying to smash another one not too far away.
It's not a beach activity she's personally familiar with, but she's glad whoever that is is having fun?
3] Everybody's Gone Surfin'
One activity previously not on the itinerary is sandcastle building - which Eleanor has been roped into by her Popplio friends. While certainly not something suited for a party, perhaps, it is suited for the beach! The younger Pokemon eagerly gather around her, packing in the sand and reinforcing it with some weak water attacks to make the sand more secure.
Eleanor's sandcastle seems... different, though. Far different to her companions at least.

Aelita (Dedenne) - OTA
Surf n turf
She couldn't swim, at least Aelita didn't think she could. Lyoko did have small pools of 'water' that the others had swam in, but she'd not risked it. What was a potential devirtualisation for them was death for her.
Instead she'd waddled to the much shallower tide pools dragging a tiny board. Ones where she could easily hop along the bottom if she fell in. Her little board was going on the water and...
Hm, calculating. How did the others get on their skateboards?
She stepped onto the end.
And promptly went into the drink. The board flipping because of the sudden weight on one end. It's fine... she could poke her head out and breathe. Even if she was wheezing from the sudden dunking.
She was going to keep trying though.
Footprints
While she didn't get close the ocean. She did spend quite a bit of time messing with the sand. It was interesting how actual sand worked. On Lyoko she could would though the Desert Sector but there'd never be footprints.
It was interesting seeing how the amount of moisture changed how sand acted.
She wasn't really build anything. Aelita was just digging little holes.
surf
"What mischief are you up to now, Aelita?" She asks after putting the Dedenne down on the sand.
no subject
It's only when she's down and able to turn that she speaks.
"Trying to surf... Most my friends back home do something called 'skateboarding' that looks similar."
...These, in fact, were not alike.
no subject
"Please enlighten me."
no subject
Tilting her head, did that make sense?
no subject
She looks over at the tiny board floating in the tide pool.
"Having any luck?"
no subject
"No... I'm trying to copy how I saw my friends doing it. But I think there's a difference in how the boards work."
no subject
"Why get yourself all drenched doing all this, anyway?"
footprints
"Having fun over there?" She calls out.
no subject
But she smiled and nodded.
"Yes, it's fantasticating seeing the physics in action."
no subject
"I'm glad," she replies, before adding, "have you had anything to eat yet?"
no subject
"Not yet. I don't like getting food when there's lots of people...larger pokemon don't see me." Being stepped on was not fun.
no subject
She doubts anyone at the party is so rude, if she's fully honest with herself. Eleanor herself skews on the smaller side and will remain so for quite a while yet. "Maybe you need to practice getting in and out of crowds better."
It's the sort of thing she learned as a kid.
