[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.

[ standard wildcard option! eleanor will also hit up any tls posted below because it's her party after all! ]

Sonya | Fire Emblm Echoes | OTA (*googles whether beach day existed in medieval times)
Sonya has been spending some time quietly observing the Brionne. She can't quite understand what Eleanor and all the other Pokemon, are trying to do, throwing themselves into the sea like this. In her time, learning how to swim was more for survival than for leisure. And who would willingly drench themselves and look like a pile of seaweed coming back out from the water?
The next time Eleanor comes back onto the sand to dry off, she'll notice the Liepard staring at her.
"Having fun?" She smiles politely, showing her sharp teeth in greeting.
2 - Beach bewilderment
Whatever form of beach activity you may be indulging in, it's likely Sonya has never seen it before and will be perplexed enough to approach and ask:
"What on earth are you doing?"
3 - Sunbathing interrupted
The Liepard has finally found something to do here that suits her tastes. She's pulled a few large palm leaves together to fashion a simple beach mat for herself and is currently curled up to enjoy the warmth of the sun (thank you, Agnes).
Even though her eyes are closed, she'll notice when someone stands in front of her, blocking the rays.
"Excuse me? You're a little too close."

Is he bullshitting? Who can say. Either way, he moves a little to one side.
no subject
Sonya looks up at the Lucario, slightly amused by his remark, and realises that she recognises him.
"I've seen you in the Spire's training rooms. Forgive me for never introducing myself. Fighting isn't really my kind of thing, though it seems Mightyena expects something from me."
She's supposed to have left that behind her when the war was over, after all. It just so happened that the one time Sonya had bothered to use the rooms, it'd been after her sprain had healed and she wanted to test her agility. Fortunately or unfortunately, she caught the guild leader's attention.
no subject
Even if he sounds pretty young, perhaps.
no subject
"Asking a lady for a fight, when I don't even know your name?"
The Liepard laughs, before relenting. "I'm Sonya. Are all the Oran Berries like you?"
no subject
His smile is an easy, bright thing.
"More seriously, the Oran berries are kind of like a group I used to belong to, back home. It's familiar."
no subject
"Do tell. Were you defenders of your town?"
That's what she understands the Oran Berries' role to be from Mightyena's spiel.
no subject
A coordinated force for good.
no subject
There are so many selfish reasons for one to choose to 'do good', after all.
"With the Oran Berries being the largest in number here, I have my doubts that everyone's on the same page."

"I think so," she nods, "are you?"
no subject
"Not particularly. But I've never seen so many gathering together to spend time by the sea before. Colour me intrigued."
no subject
Umemiya really outdid himself, feeding everyone such tasty food. She stretches herself out a bit, rolling her shoulder. "It's a party, you can probably find some way to have fun." And if she doesn't then there's no harm in her going home either.
no subject
The Liepard scans the beach, her nose twitching as she picks up the scent of the charcoal burning.
"The parties I'm familiar with are usually held around the fire, with music playing and people dancing."
no subject
"Nothing stopping you from dancing." It's a make-your-own-fun sort of affair, anyway. "If you can find the space, anyway."
no subject
She wouldn't mind cutting a rug. It sounds fun, even. Although, she'd have to sort out the logistics of dancing on four feet instead of two.

He seems to be attempting to dig a hole in the sand. This is a slow-going process, considering all he can do is wriggle around to displace sand around him. "Either help me dig or go use the litterbox somewhere else."
no subject
"You're a fiesty little weed. I was simply curious."
She remains on her haunches, not moving to help or leaving to find whatever the 'litterbox' refers to.
"Is there a point to what you're doing?"
