[EVENT: BEACH TIME!]

[Normally, one might count walking into a standard classroom only to find a bright, sunny beach instead to be a very pleasant surprise. But as Tadakuni stood there; blankly trying to wrap his head around what just happened- Only one question plagued his mind enough to dwarf all other concerns.]
.......
WHY AM I IN SCHOOL TRUNKS AGAIN!?
((OOC: Welcome to the Beach Room! Once inside, everyone who enters will suddenly appear dressed in swimwear of some kind. Unfortunately, those who try to leave will find an invisible barrier blocking them from exiting the room for at least 3 hours. So have fun, take a swim, play some volleyball, enjoy the cheesy beach-party music, or find some other activity to occupy your time!
no subject
He can be found pacing angrily near the door and decidedly not enjoying the beach activities!]
no subject
[Having just appeared in the room a few minutes prior herself, Pyrrha immediately
jiggle-bounce-boingsruns toward her self-proclaimed "friend" once she recognizes him from afar. Quite apparent now is the fact that, beneath her usual layers of clothing lies a rather 'developed' body despite her youthful face.She takes after mommy after all] Oh, Nero...!Isn't this awful!? [She laments; momentarily unthinking in regards to her own state of undress as she comes to a stop before him.]
Do you know what happened to our clothes...?
no subject
Now...they didn't have stuff like that in Fortuna. He clears his throat and nods at her.]
Awful, yeah...but no, I have no idea...
[He'd like to get some clothes himself, and not just to hide his Devil Bringer. He was practically in his underwear! Pyrrha on the other hand, was in her underwear.
At least he thought that's what it was. FORTUNA WAS A VERY SHELTERED TOWN OKAY.]no subject
-but I... can't. [There's a brief pause; the girl's face now entirely pink. She's unable to help the fact that her eyes fall upon the man once more- but this time, they're looking at the arm which he has covered in a towel.]
[She furrows her brow.] Oh... your arm....
no subject
If she was so uncomfortable, he couldn't just...leave her like that, no matter how much he felt he loathed her.]
Come on, let's...get you a towel.
[He hops off the edge of the boardwalk and down to the beach below, momentarily forgetting that she might not be able to make the same leap.]
no subject
[She's unable to stop herself from feeling a small flutter of... hope, in her chest. What does this mean..? Could he not despise her so much after all?]
O-okay... [These questions continue to swirl in the young woman's mind as she walks over to the edge of the boardwalk; blinking as she looks down to where the man landed. ...Well, she sees no reason why she couldn't make the leap. And so, Pyrrha braces herself before hopping down from the edge herself-]
no subject
no subject
Then again, considering she's a demon...he's not too surprised. It even leaves a bad taste in his mouth; an unpleasant reminder.]
You okay? Come on. [Nero turns again, refusing to show too much sympathy as he beelines for the nearest towel.]
no subject
[A small whimper of a response.] I- I'm okay... [But her chest... O-ow...]
[Thoroughly embarrassed, Pyrrha lifts herself up; now cradling her chest a bit after wiping a bit of sand from her skin. Looking over to see that Nero had already ventured a good distance ahead, Pyrrha has to jog a bit in order to catch up.]
[Furrowing her brow, she mutters.] S-sorry...
no subject
Here, you can cover up now. [Despite how harsh his gestures and general presence came off, his voice was far from it.]
no subject
Okay... I'm finished.
[Now that she's covered up and feeling a bit more comfortable, the kindness of Nero's gesture begins to sink in. Looking at him with an earnest expression, she speaks;] Nero... I....
[A pause.] ...I really, truly appreciate this. Thank you...
no subject
Don't mention it. No, seriously--don't even mention it.
[He walks a few feet to their left, finding a beach chair and sitting down in it. He crosses his arm and scowls as he speaks.]
Now we've just got to wait for that barrier to go down.
no subject
[Pyrrha, of course, follows right along; and mirrors his action as she grabs a beach chair to sit directly next to him.] Oh...
[Is that how it works? Just waiting it out? Hm.] Then... in that case...
...Do you want to do something..? [Looking over at him.] -To pass the time while we wait, I mean?
no subject
Actually, I was kind of hoping you'd leave me alone after I helped you.
no subject
Would you like to talk, at least?
[She tries to initiate conversation;] You never told me what your home town was like. It's... "Fortuna", right?
no subject
Look at her!]
Not really, but you're not going to give me much of a choice, are you?
[He huffs, seemingly resigning himself to this abysmal fate of "small talk".]
But to answer you question, it's boring, and yes it's "Fortuna". [Mocking emphasis on the Fortuna.]
no subject
[Ignoring his mocking tone.] Boring?
[Pyrrha cants her head to the side.] You don't like it..?
Then... why don't you leave?
no subject
[Losing his snarky tone, he smirks.] Besides, I kind of like my job.
no subject
[At his following words, Pyrrha furrows her brow; feeling slightly anxious as he mentions his 'job'.] ...You mean... killing demons.
no subject
That's right. I kill demons.
no subject
no subject
I didn't always have this arm.
no subject
[Pyrrha looks out across the beach; reflecting back to her time before arriving in the Campus.] I always thought that I... was just a normal human. I still feel like I'm normal, kind of... But...
Looking back now, I suppose... there were signs. [She fidgets with her fingers a bit.] I just... I never wanted to give it much thought. And I certainly never wanted to be this... thing. I just want to live like everyone else....
[She pauses for a moment, before looking back over to Nero.] I have to admit that part of me... envies you. -You and your boring town.
no subject
Yeah, well, that makes two of us. [Again, he can be seen wringing his hand at his side.]
At least you turn back to normal. My arm's stuck like this. It's just one big flashing arrow that screams "look at this freak"!
no subject
[She stares down at the palm of her hand.] I can... feel it. Changing...
Every time I blank out like that... And every time I-- [Every time I kill someone. The girl cuts herself off before finishing that sentence.] ...Every time... something really bad happens...
I can feel a pain in my arm. Like... a throbbing heat. It's getting worse, too. [Furrowing her brow in worry.] I'm.... I'm scared.
If it keeps happening... If I lose control again, I... [Looking over at Nero.]
...I don't think... there will be any turning back to "normal".
