(Open because public place, but expecting: Kakita Hiroki, Kaiu Ryosei, Kaiu Nagisa, Kitsuki Ichitaiyo, and Bayushi Kazushi!)

Like the previous day, the group would get the chance to fly in to Namigashira Bay through the services of Itsuka Dokomademo. Their pilot make sure to give them a scenic route from Nakahama City into the bay, showing the beautiful landscape of the island from an aerial view. Kanna at least considered it good fortune that the rain of the night and early morning had stopped to give way to sun and warmth, and the weather felt very beachy as they landed at their destination. The waters of the bay looked clear and inviting from above, free of any horrors from the deep.

As soon as they had arrived, the little Dragon had eagerly set up a sort of makeshift folding screen for those who wanted a bit more privacy when changing to swimwear, and set out the picnic baskets. In the meantime, Kaida seemed very happy to be back at BEACH and was sniffing around to see what had changed from the previous day.

Ichitaiyo stepped down the float, with an attire that defied Doji set conventions, with long flowing white silks bearing on her pale complexion and hair, giving the sensation that herself was melting and flowing with the winds, carrying the more practical swimwear on a duffle bag.

"I could really use some good weather, the last days have been... interesting."

Ki-kun stepped on to the beach, needlessly adjusting his designer shades.

"Oh this is more like it."

For now, he was dressed in baggy white shorts, a "simple" blue silk top jacket, currently closed and some very expensive sandals. He soon produced a wide brimmed sun hat to wear from his backpack, bur kept the shades on anyway.

He did, however, make sure to take several steps . . . away from any potentially fish infested waters before stopping to look around.

"I'm so glad you could come," Kanna said to Hiroki and Ichitaiyo (and who else accepted the invitation!). "I did this trip yesterday too, and knew I had to take the chance to do it again with more people! The waters are so beautiful, and only have small fishies. Well, mostly small fishies. But none like those horrors I saw at the fish market!"

Kaida did some excited pom-spins, making sand fly up from his antics.

"This bay is abso-positive-lutely amazing!"

"I'm sure you've seen other awesome places like this before in your travels, or do they keep you guys on a tight schedule with no time for sightseeing or beaching?"

Kazushi arrives not long after Hiroki. His entourage is present, of course, but Katsumi and Kurumi keep to a polite distance - they weren't listed on the invitation, after all. He's traded in his normal glamorous attire for a pair of swim trunks, with a (stylishly unbuttoned) light shirt with a colorful (but tasteful) flowery design.

"This beach is quite good," he agrees, having heard Kanna's assessment, "and it's a good day for it. I was concerned the rain wasn't going to let up in time, but all seems well..."

KI-kun made sure to not get in the small sand whirlwinds way and totally ignored any mention of the HORROR of the fish market or fish . . . entirely.

"Oh we have tight schedules. I've lost count of the number of planets we've only seen from orbit on the way through to a concert somewhere else, but I'm from a water world orignally. Isora's Rest."

Ichitaiyo unrolled a towel and allowed herself to lay on it.

"Halfway down this trip, I have had yet to take on the sun. Anyone wants to soak in as well?"

"Isora's Rest? Is it more ocean than this, or less?" She had heard Mantis worlds had underwater cities and she wondered if the Crane made such daring constructions too.

Then a thought struck her like lightning from clear sky, and she had to stop herself from grabbing on to Hiroki. Instead she jumped a few times with excitement. "Oh, oh! I almost forgot. Yasuki Umiko-sama asked me if I could help out for the local Bon festival here, and when I asked the Daikoku-monks, they said it would be great if someone could do some entertainment - like dancing! I instantly thought of you, of course, since you're Ki-kun of Usagi Drop!"

Appearing in more of a short-sleeved wetsuit with a bag on hand. Of course said bag contains a towel. She’s definitely the most plainly dressed of the bunch. Nagisa offers a bow to the collective group.

“Ah, hello, everyone. Lucky that the weather has cleared up enough today, huh?”

Posted: **Wed Nov 19, 2025 9:38 pm**

"Yes! I was worried I'd have to cancel this outing, but clearly the Fortunes favor us for a little sun and warmth to hit the beach," Kanna grinned.

---

At some point, with permissions and all, Kanna would give the blessings of the water kami to her guests so that they could explore the waters of the bay safely and as easy as if they were on land.

Everyone can benefit from One With the Waves!

Duration: 1 hour
This spell grants its target the ability to breath underwater and to ignore the penalties for underwater fighting for the duration of the spell. The character can also speak underwater and be understood by others close by. Needless to say, the spell running out while the character is wading through the ocean floor has disastrous consequences.

It's a minor thing, but some might notice Kazushi shudder slightly as the blessings of the kami are bestowed upon him.

Shaking it off, he says, "We'd best get to it, then, I suppose. Let's see what the reef has to offer..."

Ryosei has been running a bit late but he made it eventually. He too was dressed relatively simply with a pair of plain dark blue swim shorts and a light, white, button up shirt.

He waved to faces new and familiar and gave a bow at the group "Hello minna-san, glad to be sharing the beach with you all today." He would bow separately to Kanna "and thank you Tamori-san for organizing everything."

Posted: **Thu Nov 20, 2025 12:42 am**

"Ah, Kaiu-san," Kazushi says as the new arrival appears. "I must thank you again for a very interesting experience yesterday. You are a formidable opponent, and one I'd like to test myself against again, after I have a chance to tune up my deck and strategy a bit."

Kanna bowed in return. "It was my pleasure! I've had so much enjoyment of the nature here on the island, it's only fair that I share that delight with everyone else. The Crab have been wonderful hosts, but it's important to be a good guest and help the host feel at ease and relax!"

"Besides, you guys must have had a lot to do this past week, you deserve to have an hour or two to take it easy before going back to the grind."

"It's a water world. Far more water than here. More water than land."

The fire hazard waiting to happen then began to bounce around like . . . . like a Hinata.

Oh my kami . . . she is just a more dangerous version of Ta-kun . . .

"I can dance if required but I don't exactly know any Shrine dances . . . "

"Wait . . . we can go in there? . . . . How big are the fish . . . . . ????"

Noticing that nobody's plan was to take into the sun, but to dive into the blue, she sighed and got up to the changing tent. Shortly she came out with a long-sleeved wetsuit and her hair in a ponytail, awaiting for the consensus to set feet into the ocean.

She strolled over to the general group. "Before we dive in, how about we introduce each other to the ones we haven't spoken to yet? I am Kitsuki Ichitaiyo, friend of Kanna. Albeit I believe we are all Friends of Kanna here."

Posted: **Thu Nov 20, 2025 1:20 pm**

"Bayushi Kazushi, Orchid Department design and marketing executive," says the stylish Scorpion. "I think I've met most of you before..."

He glances toward Ichitaiyo and Kaiu Nagisa, the only two he hadn't been formally introduced to before now.

Posted: **Thu Nov 20, 2025 3:05 pm**

Oh, she was being addressed! The Crab woman quickly clears her throat before speaking, as she was taken slightly aback by the introductions. “Kaiu Nagisa. I run an auto repair place over in the residential area. It’s a pleasure to meet such a variety of people today.”

"Oh, I'm sure the Temple attendants can show you. You're so amazing, you'll pick it up easy-peasy!" Kanna was thrilled that Hiroki, in her opinion, seemed positive to it.

"It's small reef fish, none as big as tuna or the like. They're like this big!" Holding up her hands, she illustrated the size of the average coral reef fish she had seen, more or less. "They're so colorful and cute!"

Posted: **Fri Nov 21, 2025 12:22 pm**

He looked doubtful.

"Well . . . if they're no too big . . . "

He looked at the other people with them.

"Anyone seen anything in the water yet?"

He took, perhaps a single step towards the water before realising he hadn't even changed yet. The beach wear couldn't get wet . . . that was what swim wear was for.
