Provided we don't have some sort of space-ship- slash-world-ending-catastrophe, we're having a pool party after the next jump. Two days after. That's right, you heard me, a pool party. There will be snacks, music, and of course, swimming. [ she gives her usual chipper-i'm-in-a-party-planning-monster-mode smile. its charming, i promise.] We all need a little fun, I think.

If anyone wants to volunteer to help setup or has ideas or anything... I'm open to hear about them. [ mostly.]


[Private to Elena and Bonnie]
[ NEWS TEAM ASSEMBLE ] So... I know I didn't discuss but I figured you'd want to help me? It'll be something to do. [ something that doesn't involve the deeper drama going on the ship and their lives.]

Just tell me it ain't a nude party.

[coy]

I'm going to go ahead and say that it is not clothing optional. We have kids on this ship.

[nightblogs]

Thank God. I get enough of people's junk when I wake up from the jump, y'know? Not something I wanna get a repeat of during a freakin' party.

[jondrette]

For those of us that do not know how to swim?

[coy]

Don't worry. You can stick your feet in. And there are shallow parts of the pool. Its not just a swimming party though! There will be games and stuff out of the pool. [ she's working on it.]

[jondrette]

Good. I have never learned to swim, nor, do I believe, have many of my friends. Certainly not my brother.

And you said there would be food, as well!

[lafautedevoltaire]

[Party? He likes the sound of that. But it's also a very foreign concept]

What do people do, at a... pool party?

[coy]

Swim, hang out. [ she would say drink but... KID.]

[ Drama, you say? She's done with drama. Done. She wallowed, she felt guilty, everybody made up. It's time for bigger and better. (Possibly scarier and more dangerous, but first: pool party! ]

Count me in.

Yay! [ caroline brightens. she needs this after all, as much as everyone else.]

I figured you'd be in.

[skjalf]

But my gown would be ruined if I were to swim in it.

[ in her time period, you swim naked or in your underwear. neither of which are going to happen. ]

You get a swimsuit! They aren't gorgeous here but they do have those standard issued ones as far as I know.

[unforgives]

A pool party? Sounds like we could definitely use something like that.

[coy]

I know, right? I'm hoping people will get it. I forgot that a lot of people aren't... well pool parties aren't a thing when they're from.

[lacksgrace]

If you mean real fun, you're gonna have to try a lot harder than that.

Re: video;

[coy]

And what's your idea of 'real fun'?

[unmakes]

Wow, so this is probably just me being super new, but I didn't even know we had a pool.

[coy]

It's okay, I'd been here like... months and didn't realize it. I figured it was time to use it for something fun.

[doggedly]

You're so together and matter-of-fact on this, it's like you've planned a party before.

What sort of snacks?

video;

[coy]

I know, it's shocking, right? [ tease, tease.]

Baked goods and a whole lot of junk food.

I haven't actually had a tan in longer than I can remember. Will people be banned from said pool party based on how closely they resemble a ghost?

( audio )

[coy]

Doubtful. I'm not exactly tan myself. Besides, you can blame it on being stuck on a ship with artificial sunlight.

[unbalancer]

I was joking with Caroline just now about this, but, if you miss the sun, the gardens have an artificial one. It acts the same, and you can feel the warmth. I don't... get tan but maybe you will.

Also, echoing Caroline, we won't turn anyone away.

[redhotsummers]

I guess I'll show.

You better. [ smirk right back!] Time to show the beach bod, Summers.
