[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!

[You know what? He's just going to stare at her in bewilderment as she mimics his actions. The only reason he'd done that was because he didn't want to use his other hand. Pyrrha, on the other hand...
Well, it got a small laugh out of him once the shock wore off.]
Uh, that's great, but you could have just taken it by the stick, you know.
no subject
I... I assumed that it was part of the custom... [Ahem.]
[Face red, Pyrrha takes another bite of her corndog before speaking again.] ...I never imagined that I'd enjoy eating dog....
But I still don't understand where the corn could possibly be...
no subject
[As Pyrrha words her concern over the cornerdog, Nero decides to break the news to her.] I'll give you a hint.
[He leans in, whispering into her ear because this is a VERY SECRET MATTER after all.] It's not actually made out of dog.
[Nero pulls back again, talking at a normal volume now.] Although what it actually is made out of is up for debate and possibly illegal.
[A pause.] And the outside is made of cornbread. I think.
no subject
[She furrows her brow; immediately forcing that thought back as she focuses on the fact that she was tricked.] W-why would you lie about such a thing??
[Still frazzled, the girl looks away with a bit of an embarrassed frown. Fooled again...]
no subject
Man, I should have gotten us some drinks while I was there...
no subject
no subject
[Damn, she's good.] Well, maybe it he'd just handed them over in the first place, I wouldn't have needed to soak his head~
[He continues walking, taking another bite out of his corndog.]

You know... I think that there are a lot of people in this world who respond well to common courtesy. When I travel, I depend a lot on the kindness of others to get by.
I don't think... that people necessarily need to be forced... [She takes another bite of her food as well.]
no subject
[Blinking; the girl realizes with definite embarrassment that she actually finished eating before Nero did; too distracted by their conversation to remind herself to slow down and pace herself as she normally would. Awkwardly still holding the stick in hand, Pyrrha quickly hides it behind her back as she hopes that the man wont notice.]
no subject
[Nero starts leading them back to their seats, and only stops when Pyrrha suddenly hides her corndog stick behind her back. He finishes off his own food before asking.]
You can just toss, I mean, it's just a piece of wood. [He tosses his own as an example.]
no subject
no subject
I-- I hadn't eaten anything yet today s-so... so that's why I was- um, hungry...
no subject
[Reaching their seats, he takes a seat again and lets out a heavy sigh.]
no subject
[However, the girl refrains from sitting as Nero takes a seat; looking down at him as he rests. They've probably still got some time to kill... And if they just start talking about themselves again, it can only result in depressing conversation or another angry outburst from Nero. Pyrrha anxiously tries thinking of something else to occupy their time...
And also distract from the subject of her eating habits.] Um... so......What else should we do? [Pyrrha looks up; the sun's rays brightly shining into her eyes. As self-conscious as she is about her body, part of her is almost starting to wish that she could discard the thick towel around her torso.]
It's... getting pretty hot, isn't it?
no subject
I don't know. I can't do anything with my arm like this-- [He furrows a brow, looking out at the crowd.] There's too many people here...
no subject
...What if we were in the water? Then no one would have to see, right?
no subject
It goes all the way up to my shoulder.
no subject
[No... It doesn't have to be that way. ...That's what she'll choose to keep believing anyway.]
[Determined.] Then we'll swim out to where the water is deeper.
I'll keep an eye out too- and warn you if anyone gets too close. No one has to see you but me... I promise. [Pyrrha extends her hand out to the man as she stands in front of his chair.]
...Will you come with me?
no subject
It's fine, I'll just go. It's better than sitting here and being bored out of my mind.
[Hiding like this was even worse. He felt pathetic on top of ashamed by having Pyrrha offer to help him. No matter how much he might need the empathy, Nero was too stubborn to openly accept it.]
[He gets up from his seat and loses the towel as he makes his way to the shore.]
no subject
[The girl watches as he walks off and discards his towel; glancing at his bare torso momentarily before looking away. She... still has to get used to being in the presence of an exposed man, after all.]
[The blonde herself keeps her towel wrapped around herself even as she approaches the shore. Only when her feet have touched the cool water does she pull the towel free from her body; letting it fall to the sand as she hastily moves forward to submerge herself in the sea; anxiously looking around to make sure that no one is too close by. The water is certainly nice and refreshing against her skin; instantly helping her feel a lot cooler as it rises up the further she moves in.]
no subject
Hh... [He lets out a sigh, because at least the water was nice and cool, taking an edge off the heat and his bad mood.]
[Nero also can't help but glance at Pyrrha when she walks in before quickly averting his eyes as usual.]
no subject
O-oh... [Pyrrha blinks, as a thought occurs to her.] I forgot...
[An uneasy expression as she awkwardly averts her gaze; admitting-] ...I... never learned how to swim.
no subject
What? Are you serious? And you're just remembering this now?
no subject
I mean- I've waded in the water before, but... Never for very long. I was always afraid that someone would see me... And I've never really had to swim before, s-so....
[She looks down; somewhat embarrassed.]
no subject
[He does an extremely vague gesture with both arms as an example.] Sort of like this.
