paixaorpg | It's a Cool Pool Party! [Completed]

Character(s): Everyone! Come on down~
Content: Urd throws a pool party at Jogo da Crianca for everyone to enjoy.
Setting: Jogo da Crianca pool!
Time: Noon until night.
Warnings: Probably none. Maybe blatant fanservice of all the sexy (and not so sexy) characters.

It's been too long since the citizens of Paixao made use of the fairly impressive pool at the park. Like all of the landscaping and architecture of the city, the pool seemed ancient, almost in its appearance, wide and large and full of clear, glittering water. Equally sparkling trees provided shade all around the perimeter and comfortable outdoor chaises (made more comfortable by extra cushions today) and picnic tables dotted the area through out.

For the event, colorful balloons had been created and now floated peacefully in place as if held by an invisible hand. Crepe ribbons were strung from tree to tree and tiki torches, waiting to be lit once the sky started to darken, held their vigil in strategic points around the pool. Two long tables have been spread with snacks made by Belldandy and Genie, so they're sure to be the most delicious cookie/sandwich/chips you've ever had.

Most importantly, in one far corner of the area, a karaoke station has been magically created by Genie. The television is 42 inches, flanked by two 15 inch speakers. Four microphones and stands are available for any party goer to belt their favorites out. To add to the mood, there's even a disco ball above the microphones, hung from the nearest tree!

Don't have a swimsuit? No problem! Urd, Belldandy and probably even Genie will summon up something for you quicker than you can say "sudden public nudity." Be warned, though...each has their own sense of style and may end up dressing your character in something less than dignified.

Unbeknown to any of the guests, a special and invisible barrier has been set into place by Belldandy. This warding field will not allow any Heartless to enter the party, should anyone decide to summon them. Not that they would, though, right? This is a sunny, happy day!

What could go wrong?

OOC Notes: Much like the other large group logs here, this one will work via several small threads that people start in the comments. Everyone is free to jump into someone's thread, provided they don't have a note in their subject line claiming the thread is private (which you're totally allowed to do). Keep in mind that this party was created for characters to develop CR with more people, so don't be afraid to mingle!

This? Oh no, no, no. This was not flashy at all. This was mild; for him, anyway. A guy couldn't win, could he? Sheesh, goddesses.

He looks up, 'smiling' at her. "I said I would now, didn't I? Wouldn't want to go back on my word, spoil anyone's hopes and dreams, you see." He laughs, holds up his drink in a way to cheer, then decides to summon a second one in his free hand. It looked to be a martini of sorts. "Would you like one, dear? I promise it's not poisonous."

And if she chose to take it, it actually wasn't.

Sure, it was a friendly-seeming gesture on the outside. Well, except for the creepy god of death offering it to her. But she knew what it really was -- he was calling her out, challenging her and probably just trying to throw her off. If that was his game, she'd play.

She smirked, which was really the closest thing to a smile she could muster in his presence and took the glass from his hands. "Oh, thank you," Urd purred, batting her eyelashes. Without any hesitation, she the tipped martini back to her mouth and drained it in one go. She tossed the glass over her shoulder, which promptly burst into a puff of black smoke before disappearing.

Urd always was pretty impetuous.

"Oh, my, I'm so glad that you could make it, Hades-san!" Belldandy approached the pair, smiling as ever without a trace of worry on her expression whatsoever. Taking note of Hades' swimsuit, she giggled in a lighthearted manner. "Did you go with a pirate motif, Hades-san? In that case, it might be cute if you were to talk like a pirate for the day!" She suggested. He seemed to be in good spirits; perhaps keeping an eye on him wasn't too necessary after all? But she could see that her sister was cautious; Belldandy wasn't blind, after all. But it was impossible to tell, with that smile of hers; Belldandy came over to hopefully keep both of them in check.

Well, if Hades was already having a hard time to keep cool as a cucumber, now came the real challenge when Belldandy skirted up alongside the other. Oh, she just infuriated him every time she opened her mouth!

Still.

Hades was not showing it. At all. He tilts his glass to them, grinning widely. "Really, dear, pirates? I'll have to pass, you know, but I'll be sure to keep it in mind for the next party." He takes a sip and looks off towards the pool.

There was no game here, really. Or at least not one that anyone else was going to be able to play.

Even Belldandy's serene presence did little to smooth Urd's ruffled feathers. There was just something about Hades that rubbed her all the wrong ways -- perhaps his claim to godhood when he was so evil, so repugnant, insulted her on a personal level. "Your sense of fashion is outdated and you mix a disgusting drink," she finally said scathingly, turning on her heel with a regal toss of her hair and stalking off, knowing better to continue this charade.

Luckily for Hades-san, Belldandy viewed the well-being on her elder sister far more important than the well-being of her guest. Just in case, though, she quickly veiled a miniature off-shoot of herself to hide behind a planter near Hades in order to keep an eye on him as she bowed to Hades in apologies, running toward Urd. "Nee-san..." She could have scolded her for being so rude to a guest, but Belldandy knew that Urd didn't need to hear that right now. "Are you all right?"

Urd didn't stop walking as Belldandy came up to her. The scowl on her face was gone, replaced by a much calmer, graver expression. "Sorry, Bell. I just can't stand that guy." She slowed her pace, glancing at her sister from corner of her eye. Seeing how worried Belldandy was, Urd smiled a small, reassuring smile. "I'm okay. I just got carried away and needed to remove myself from the situation."

The younger sister simply nodded. "It's all right, Nee-san; I'll be the one to keep an eye on Hades-san, all right?" She tried to reassure her. "You concentrate on hosting the rest of the party; it's quite the success, wouldn't you say?" She gave her a smile. It was true; several people have come to enjoy themselves. All the more reason that Belldandy was the perfect candidate for keeping an eye on Hades.

Urd smiled softy in response, ducking her head. "Yeah, it's turned out alright. Not a single conflict so far." She turned, hands on her hips, surveying her surroundings. "Not enough people are using the karaoke machine, though...and Genie put so much thought into it."

She suddenly widened her eyes, lightly hitting the palm of her hand with a fist. "Ah! I bet some people don't even know what it is! I should let them know." With a small wave at Belldandy over her shoulder, she quickly moved towards the karaoke station, already distracted by something new.

Glad that her elder sister's mood has lifted considerably, Belldandy more than gladly followed her toward the karaoke station. She noticed a few others using it before, but Urd was probably distracted all things considered. "Why don't we take turns, then?" She asked. She already was itching to sing another song, but she was also a big fan of her sister's singing as well.
