Happy 5th Birthday!

Subject: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 7:08 am

In honour of Dragons’ Cove’s fifth birthday, Zartear and Sebantais have decided to throw a beach barbeque at the Azure Caves. Every one is welcome and even expected to join, whether two-legged or four-legged, friend or foe. Differences will be put aside and for this one fantastic day, everyone shall be happy (and drunk on rainbow cocktails). There will also be dancing, lots of dancing, and most certainly food in abundance!

Now, don’t be scared off by the pirate look Sebantais has adopted for the day, or the fact that Zartear is wearing speedos. It will all be for the general good of the party, for sure!

Just imagine a wonderful sandy beach, cerulean water all around, a stream of which is gently leading into the fantastic gleaming Azure Caves, loving rays of sunlight caressing your skin, the scent of grilled (and only slightly charred) meat, the sound of coconut bikinis, sandcastles being built, people being thrown into the cooling ocean after stealing someone else’s drink...

Come, come, step onto the beach and join the party. You will not regret it.

WITNESS THE BATTLE TO BURN THE MEAT,
TO TAME THE UNTAMEABLE GRILL!
Witness Zartear and Sebantais take their rightful place
amongst the stars as the lords of flamegrill.

He looked up to the clear sky of Dragons' Cove, it was just another day to some, but for the one true god of Dragons' Cove it was a day like no other.
The sun reflected off of his stylish censor-bar sunglasses as he looked on with calm confidence.
Today there would be no grill quite like the Zarantais grill, of that he was certain.
Zartear readied his gleaming black spatula, a new morph of his weapon, and adjusted the arrangement in his speedos for a moment as he then looked over to his pirate brethren. Sebantais.
He nodded, letting the quiet understanding pass between them.

Today had finally arrived. Today was the day that Sebantais had been waiting for all year! The one day of the year he could be totally free from his duties and get out of his usual suit and jump straight into his pirate gear.
Ready with earhoop in his left ear, eye patch on his right eye and his favourite red bandana strapped around his head with the ends freely playing in the wind, Sebantais returned his partner in crime's nod.
"Let's get this party started!"

Stepping forward to the grill he limbered up, sometimes lungeing suddenly in a mock swipe with the spatula, bouncing on his toes as he did so.
Turning away dramatically he became quiet and let a long and loud breath out as he prepared himself for the carnage.
"LET THERE BE FIRE MA DRAGON BRO-THER!" He yelled, raising his spatula in a war cry as he turned on his heel to face the ferocious, untamed grill.

Beating his tail to the ground in a rhythmic sound to accompany his friend’s war path, Sebantais concentrated on the wild grill in front of them. They would conquer it. They had to!
Instinctively, he hummed a pirate-y tune as Zartear got into position.
“YER WISH IS MY COMMAND!”
Bristling his wings threateningly at the grill, Sebantais stretched his bum into the air and threateningly leaned towards the evil construction as he began to draw forth the flames from the darkness of his belly.
With a fierce roar, the fire shot out of him and joined Zartear’s spatula in battle.

With a rolled up towel on her hip, the Egyptian servant configuration of garments - or considerable lack thereof - and of course the gorgeously overdone and awry budget makeup, Yuzan pattered her way down the beach to join the scene of the party-to-be.
This was no laughing matter though, she was here on serious business. The "Tarzian-Cheap" outfit was one thing, but the intent with which she wielded her great fan-palm in the other hand was another entirely.
Who knows, maybe she would be so privileged as to eat from the holy char grill.

He tiptoed barefoot through the sand as quiet as could be, long legs bowed out awkwardly so that not even his bright, lime green surfer shorts-- already soaked through from an early dive further down the bank-- would make a sound. The thirteen year old boy, considerably tall for his age, grinned wickedly as he snuck up behind the extremely enthusiastic duo. His short blonde hair stuck up wildly in every direction, lakewater dripping down his face. Golden eyes clenched narrow, a lip bitten, all to keep from making noise. He slowly came to a halt only inches behind Zartear, hunched down so the other creature wouldn't see him out of the corner of his eye, and promptly sprung onto the cooks back while making aloud "whooping" sound.

Subject: Re: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 8:23 am

He sounded the alarm, a roar of satisfaction immediately as the flame struck the unholy meat as he pounded with his utensil onto the grill, hollering the victory for all to hear. Soon, sublime charcoal would be there for all and any to eat, if they were so lucky.
Not before he had crushed another burger through the grill with his black-spatch alone had a wild beast suddenly attacked him.
Zartear growled with annoyance, spinning around while waving his arms to try and grab at the thing's arms.
He could hear the sound clear enough.
"Fool boy! You deserve no sensational cuisine you strange and dirty little beast."

He never had gotten used to that irritating grin or laugh.
"Where is your owner anyway?"

Subject: Re: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 8:31 am

"It worked! My friend - it worked!" Sebantais almost sounded amazed at the fact that they had won the first round in the Taming of the Grill! "This is fantast - aaaaaargh!" Sebantais jumped up as though a mouse had crawled into his line of sight when suddenly the speedo-model was attacked by something in a very bright pair of shorts.
"How dare you interrupt this holiest of rituals?"

Looking particularly delicious on this fine day, Del'ure was parading himself along the beach line, a silver platter filled with mouthwatering rainbow cocktails balanced in his hands. His sexy hoola skirt dangled seductively around his thighs, almost enough to deviate attention from the coconut bikini he had strapped around his chest for decoration. The huge sunglasses did nothing to hide the amused grin plastered on his face as he moved up to the grill-commotion and offered them the platter. "Beverage for the grillmasters? And their... pet?"

Subject: Re: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 8:38 am

Nathanael only laughed more as Zartear crazily spun around, then just as suddenly as he appeared he pushed himself off the man's back. The child attempted a fancy twist midair, but only managed to tangle his foot on Zartear's arm and gracefully flopped face first on the ground, still snickering. He recovered quick and darted to the other side of the grill so the angry food pirate wouldn't strangle him. He scrunched his nose mockingly over the now sand coated grin, fists proudly propped on his hips in a heroic pose.

"Who said I wanted any of you food, old man? You probably cook as well as a snail can sprint!"

Subject: Re: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 8:51 am

The little creature moved quickly, but a quietly vengeful smirk took the glare from his face as the boy's head planted face first into the sand, to help him along, Zartear shoved him with his foot too.
The moment of glee did not last.
"This is SURAHNIAN COOKING AT ITS FINEST. See, even a mathafracking Guardian Dragon dragon knows this is good when he sees it. Smells it, tastes the coal. You have a lot to learn my boy." He looked away, his "feelings" hurt by the slight.
"Sebantais, we require more FIRE." With a befitting crotch-thrust to regain his self confidence, Zartear wildly unleashed a string of sausages onto the barbeque. "We were only just beginning, little thing."

He had been told he needed to work on his socially-awkward ways.
"Assert yourself more." They said. "Be clear about what you want." They said. "Have the gusto to feel beautiful." They also said.
Rintho could not deny the wisdom of those versed in arts he learnt nothing of.
Oiled up like a beauty, shirtless and baring his beautifully stab-wounded and green, sickly chest, Rintho strode onto the beach like the bonafide model he was.
"Ma there's a scary man!" Came the cries of jealousy, as the small children fled their sandcastles.
Happy 5th Birthday! Swag11

Yuzan spying her opportunity for fanning excellence made her way over to the cluster of delicious specimens, yet just as she was about to put her arm-power to work she caught the green figure in the corner of her eye looking as studly and repulsive as ever. She had to wonder if he had finished on her youth-regeneration-clock-back-zero-formula for her yet. Yet here he was, slacking. She pouted with disappointment to see him and frowned in his general direction.

Subject: Re: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 8:56 am

Atoro lay stretched across the sand in bliss, enjoying the hot sunshine on his skin. It was glorious, the one day Zartear had given him off, and hell, he was going to make the damn most of it. The king was off battling the grill for the ability to cook all the sausages with Sebantais, that handsome pirate devil, and although it looked like fun for some, it wasn't Atoro's thing. No, a nice tan... What other day was he allowed to break out his Hawaiian-print shorts?

Although, he was going to go and steal some kebabs later, when they had gotten the wild beast of a grill under control. Surahnian cooking at it's finest, black to the core and tasting like the best charcoal ever made. He kept half an eye on the spectacle from where he lay, waving his hand to Rintho and Yuzan when they appeared for some sunbathing company.

Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, a beach party! This was brilliant! Zack was so excited he could hardly contain himself, rolling round the sand and zooming all over the place like some sort of delinquent oversized bee as more and more people arrived. The grill was a fantastic, monsterous beast, something like out of a nightmare and twice as exciting for the pure fact that it was real. Sebantais was a god amongst dragons, his eyepatch especially fierce, his earring gleaming. Zartear was ferocious and magnificent, his spatula the fitting weapon of a king. Zack couldn't stop his squeals of delight at all this and even more, especially when he saw Del'ure with all his wonderful display.
"I want one! I want all of them! Oh look at them all, they're like from a painting!"

Subject: Re: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 9:20 am

Yuzan turned to then see the brightly coloured and beautiful fashion choice of Atoro. Rintho was looking none too shabby in his similarly becoming old man's plaid knee-length leggings. If you were going to live forever, you might as well have looked like you had been around forever too.
"Rintho!" She squealed a greeting to him as she skipped over. "I've been using this new cream, what do you think? Is my face-scar showing much?" She whispered, touching her cheeks lightly.

The scars were brutally cut into her face, thick and wide in the hourglass of the Surahnian flag.
"Not really." He hummed, feeling as powerful as ever in these heat-efficient leggings. Now he could compliment women honestly, for one thing. "Thankyou very much, kind Lady." He then added with appreciation, taking her beach towel from her thankfully and sprawling it out beside Atoro.

"Oh you're so cute Rintho, wait, no that..." She stuttered with irritation.
Rintho flexed himself onto the towel beside Atoro and snapped fingers.
"You're a fan lady, so fan." He said, in the most manly voice his pitchy and coarse throat could manage on any regular day.

Subject: Re: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 9:27 am

"We shall prevail! Ready the spatula!" Taking a deep breath the handsome pirate devil readied himself to launch attack number two at the ferocious stripy beast in front of them. He would do everything in his power to subdue the thing and if it was the last thing he did on this day. Well, most likely they were indeed going to spend all day playing with fire, but what was not to love? He was in the best company he could wish for; the flamegrill and the spatula!
Amidst all the fierce glaring at the grill, Sebantais did not even notice the colourful display of bodies and holiday shorts assembling on the beach. If he had, he would have shed a tear at the beauty of the view.

"Oh my dear little dragon friend, you may choose whichever one you want. And do not hesitate to order special creations either," Del'ure winked at Zack, "I am very good with satisfying unique and individual wishes." With a last look at the busy grillmasters, he deposited drinks for them nearby, and while he moved off further down the beach, called back to Zack: "Stay away from the fire!"

Atoro, the fellow with the overly pale skin and the stunning shorts could certainly use a drink to go with his tan. "A beverage for the fanning lady and the ones being fanned?" he asked with a grin and a flutter of his eyelashes as he held the platter out to the lovely Yuzan and Zartear's close friend. "And you my dear," he addressed Rintho. "Oh my, you could really use a tan. What on earth has happened to you? Do not fret, today will make all your worries disappear and tomorrow you will feel as good as new!"

Subject: Re: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 9:33 am

Fantastic creations just for himself? Wow, this party got better and better, and it had barely started! Zack did a couple of backflips in mid-air for his excitement, mind whirring for the best drink he could think of asking for. Lots of alcohol, that always seemed to make people very pleasant and happy didn't it? And if he didn't like it well, he could always give it to someone else. The two tenders of the grill looked like they'd probably need a drink, for all their hard work.

Atoro quickly realised the beach was ten times better with friends, as the other two came over to his side. All this was so good, he gave them an uncharacteristically bright smile as he patted the sand beside him. "Take a spot; the sun is hot. I hope I will not burn in it."
Perhaps he should have brought some suncream. No matter, Yuzan looked as if she would burn equally as quickly, and she was so taken with her appearance, she probably would have remembered some. She was probably better at applying it, too.
He rolled his eyes at Rintho's order, amused at his attempt at mastery, then took a drink from Del'ure, nodding his thanks. Ah, a delivery service too! "Enjoy the heat, Rintho, you can be fanned later. Yuzan, how would /you/ look with a tan?"

Subject: Re: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 9:51 am

Rintho shot him a side-glance of curiosity, well fine, some liked the heat but he was not fond of it. Honestly, it wouldn't be too long before he started smelling at this rate.

"Oh my!" She exclaimed, fiddling with a lock of her hair as she beheld the god that was Del'ure the waiter. "Yes, if you'd be so kind...Oh yes, thankyou very much." She giggled girlishly taking a particularly fantastically rainbow coloured beverage from him. It was fruity smelling and sweet when she sipped through the straw tentatively, tee-heeing as she did so.
"Hmmm I cannot say, how do you think I would look with a tan?" Yuzan then turned to Del'ure too. "Gorgeous, indeed?" She took the cherry from the umbrella cocktail stick and chewed it between her front teeth seductively. Not before long however it then fell out as she coughed on the drink and soon it was lost to the sand.
"Rintho what have you." She coughed and spluttered with a hand to her chest. "Done now?!"

Rintho looked to her with bemusement, no, what did he know of the cocktail mixing at this radical shindig? The silly woman was not yet skilled enough to achieve the same levels of sexy as he, in fact, she failed it utterly.
"Common servant, must learn to know her place." He mimicked the Surahnian way of speaking, apparently it worked for them. "Just as well your fellow workers aren't here Atoro, you'd be SOOO embarrassed."

Zartear took in a deep suck of breath as he raised the mighty drink to his lips and took a firm swig of it, then emptying it entirely before throwing the glass heroically to the side.
"The spatula is ready! Lord of the sausage is in command! Zebantais grill in operation now!" He replied heartily, though with a look of serious and deadly intent on his face as he proceeded to side slice a sausage brutally with the weapon, the meat rebounding away from it vigorously and the fat burning up gloriously in the fire.
"Take it! Take it and eat it!" He snarled, thrusting his free hand forward to grab the rogue and running sausage in its flight to freedom from the grill.
Once in his grasp he threw it effortlessly to Sebantais.

Subject: Re: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 10:37 am

Sebantais just as effortlessly snatched the sausage from the air, basking in the glory that was the win of round 2 the Taming of the Grill. "My dear Zartear, you are most definitely the Sausage-Lord. This was indescribably good!"
Shaking his body in delight, he spiked up a sausage on one of his large claws and held it out to his friend. "For your efforts, now revel in the glory that is the grilled meatworm! Let's celebrate our victory by feasting upon what the flamegrill is preparing for us!"

Squealing with pure, unadulterated joy upon seeing her beloved prince in shining armour - which he seems to have exchanged for speedos in honour of the occasion - Selene rushed towards the flamegrill, hugging the pirate dragon briefly before quickly rearranging the bikini entirely made out of flowers and beaming at Zartear. "My love! You have been wonderful in this last fight, just wonderful! A sight for sore eyes indeed." Blushing fiercely at her own words, Selene touched her cheek in an attempt to cool it off a little before fiddling with her flower adorned hair.
"Ooooh, Zack!" she cried out, "my dear little Zack. You look perfectly adorable!" Stealing the pink umbrella from Sebantais' drink, she fastened it onto the paper dragons head. "There now. Protection against the sunlight."

Del'ure bowed as Yuzan requested his opinion. "My dear, I'm sure you look perfectly gorgeous with a tan, just as much as without. In fact, I wouldn't mind inspect...," Del'ure coughed in an attempt to hide his laughter as the cherry fell from her mouth. "A little bit of practice might be in order, but you're already doing very well." He purred before he nodded towards the men. "Gentlemen, enjoy your sunbathing! Holler if you require more liquids." Winking at Yuzan in a more than suggestive manner, he walked away from the trio to greet the next group of party-people.

Subject: Re: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 11:39 am

"Indubitably gorgeous," agreed Atoro to Yuzan's words, sniffing at his own rainbow coloured drink before taking a quick sip and blinking his eyes in surprise. What flavour! He would not be restraining himself any from enjoying this, it was delicious. In taking another drink, he almost spilled it smiling at Yuzan's attempts at seduction, quickly having to avert his face to the less than appealing sight of Rintho.
"To their ends, my fellow workers. This is my day of rest." Atoro had never much cared for the others anyway. He relaxed back against his towel with his drink in his hand, chewing olives off the cocktail stick which had come with it. Then he looked at the olives, holding them to Yuzan to take. "Can you reach my mouth any better with these, than your own?"

Zack beamed in joy as Selene danced over towards the grill, and even more when she gifted him with such a perfect hat. He couldn't help his stuttering, especially in front of such a beautiful lady. He fluttered around a little, admiring the distinctly strange silhouette he now made on the ground and beaming the whole time. "Thank you! I love it! Such a wonderful gift, I shall treasure it the whole day."
He fluttered up to her face and gave her a dry kiss on the cheek, turning his face away in embarrassment moments after. "So kind!"

Subject: Re: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 11:57 am

Zartear looked smugly to Sebantais, of course it was true. Without a moment of hesitation he snatched the meat worm from Sebantais's claw and jammed it into his mouth hastily. Crushing the black biscuit-piece with his teeth in a frenzy of ash and fat oozing in his mouth gloriously, his face was full of anger and rapture as he savoured the morsel.
Then, he saw her coming toward him like a woman from the the center plaque of the white lily, bouncing across the sand, her flowers and their petals bobbing with her.
"Delicious, very delicious." He said under his breath, spitting out the tiny pebble of the last bit of the meal into the sand as he had seen those cowboys do in their movies. "You are my favourite deluded, vampiric bitch. I like the accents of powder blue and baby pink on your flowers by the way, they suit your skin tone very much." He coughed then. "...That is to say they suit you for LOOKING LIKE A HOT SLUT." He retained his masculinity, phew.

Yuzan laughed again in the way that girls do when behaving around attractive men; she would have to ask for the mysterious waiter's address later. She watched him walk away as she sipped at her cocktail with a lopsided grin.
Hearing Atoro's compliment however was more appealing just then.
"Oh you!" She giggled, "First you let me out of my eternal prison for a day, then you're saying I'd look good with a tan. What is a girl to do?" Her wrist flopped in front of her as she looked away with an almost-blush appearing. Noticing the offer of the olives she took them gladly.
In an overly dramatic display she sucked on one with bizarre expressions, apparently to be attractive, crossing her face. She then dipped the olive down just above his mouth.
"Open wide my noble stallion."

Having had a better idea appear to him, Rintho got up at once and left without a word. He could see it now on the golden sand just before them, it was empty enough.
Then he saw the other object, the portable stereo of course. He had spunk that others did not know about, he'd have to show them, so at once he stole the thing from where it was rested near the angry eater and his Hawaiian princess and proceeded to lay it down in the middle of a large space of sand.
Sitting down for a moment he looked inside, "Greatest Hits of DC" ?
The tracklist was interesting, it had several fabulous floor-fillers.
High with the HC, Grind it like you're Kaionarian, Surahnian Anthems and other songs for Badass People, Love is A Masterpiece from the Yarrowitzian choir and even his personal favourite, "The Herding" By Solat of Turich.

Which to choose?

Subject: Re: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 2:26 pm

Sebantais suppressed a snort as Zartear made haste to recover his practically lost male pride and nudged him, squinting at Selene. "Eh, quite a knock-out that one. Wouldn't want to throw her out of bed, right?"
Of course, he knew about forestry-adventures, but he wasn't going to go into detail. It would not do. They had more important things to attend.
"My comrade, methinks it is time for round 3 before the big onrush of the next few guests! Prepare for battle!" He roared a challenge at the barbeque monster and readied his fire so Zartear could throw a few more bones onto the grill.

"Anything for you, my sweet," Selene purred, blushing as Zack planted a kiss on her cheek. "Now, let's leave those two studs to their firefighting, and let's go see who else is available for a little bit of friendly banter. Maybe Yuzan needs rescuing from those awful men. What say you?"
Without waiting for a reply, Selene sauntered off down the beach in pursuit of further endeavours, though of course, she would never really take her eyes of Zartear. How could she? Those speedos looked quite simply divine!

Del'ure had meant to attack the newest beach guests with his cocktail tray but he was distracted as the green man suddenly jumped up and made for the stereo. What a marvelous idea to put on some music!
"What do we have?" he inquired, looking over Rintho's shoulder. "Oh, those are fantastic! Put on "The Herding", absolutely, that will get them in the mood." Thrusting a drink into Rintho's hand, before placing the silver platter carefully on the ground, he picked up a cocktail himself. "Now then, are you ready my friend to see some seriously epic moves? Join me on the dancefloor, will you?"

Subject: Re: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 4:27 pm

It was difficult to miss Syru's arrival to the beach. Eyes bulging, mouth hanging open and tongue lolling as he panted, he raced through the air like a greyhound towards Rintho. This was the most excitement he had ever felt- a party! On the beach!!
The only problem was, Syru wasn't really a sun person. In fact, the only thing keeping him awake was adrenaline.
"WINFO!"he yelled ecstatically. "WINFO, PARTY!!!!!"
In fact, he really was quite tired... He stumbled slightly in the air as he thought this, jaw stretching into a yawn... before his feet failed him entirely and he dropped in a pathetic parabola into the sand.

Meanwhile, a somewhat more dignified entrance was being made by none other than Lady Skeloph Shyvmore. It might not be often that she got to show off like this, but when she did, she went to town, there was no doubt about it. It was impossible to miss the smooth, creamy curves of her supple body as she sashayed down the beach, the tight golden material of her minimalistic bikini throwing off tiny glints of light. She couldn't miss an opportunity like this... and she couldn't arrive with the masses, either. Slinking up behind Zartear as he stood at the barbeque, she swept a light hand down his arm and allowed it to drop off his elbow to rest on his hip. There was no way that scarlet hussy of a peasant was going to outdo her, oh no.
"Oh, Zartear," she purred, stepping in closer to stand behind him, lifted up on her toes to rest her head on his shoulder. "I just love how you handle that spatula."

There had to be some variation amongst all that hot young stuff on the beach. Dekhovra was that variation. In a suitably modest black, white and red-striped swimming costume, she sat under a vast sun umbrella on the beach. Her towel was emblazoned with the SR flag, and she was feverishly working to cover herself in another layer of suncream. It had, after all, been half an hour since she had last applied it. Finally she finished, turning to survey the rest of the beach. There was the King, with yet another inappropriately attired girl fawning after him. Really, young women these days had no concept of propriety.
"Hmph," she said, shaking her head and standing. If she couldn't teach them how to dress, maybe she could teach them how to dance. It might have been a few years since she'd put it to good use, but back in the day in Old Surahnia nobody had beaten her at the Plague Shuffle!

Subject: Re: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 4:32 pm

It didn’t matter that Silence didn’t really know anyone, it was a party with music and booze; she could deal with not knowing anyone! Warm sand, good atmospheres, and lots of people, oh forget it; introductions could happen when she was drunk. She’d know them when she left and even then it didn’t properly matter if she made life-long friends. She recognized Rhys’ poker buddy Rintho looking through the music tracks and debated saying something to him. ‘Oh well, nothing ventured nothing gained.’ Clad in a neon yellow bikini, she wandered over to say hello, but only after grabbing a margarita from a nearby drink tray. “Should put on “Grind it like a Kaionarian” if you want a mood, it makes good dance music!”

Subject: Re: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 4:52 pm

Zartear grinned, still watching Selene trotting off with her papery companion, with her beautiful badonging ass.
"She was. She's a total ho right? But I still would." He clattered the spatula again on the grill in a general expression of approval for said ass. Hearing the third call to arms though, he had to agree. "Right you are comrade, but this time...We break out the burgers. First done, first served, first thrown, first eaten." He cut open the sack of burgers with his razor sharp jawline and hauled armloads onto the cowering grill.
"COME ON, we'll be having our meat NOW. WELL DONE." He threw on a steak for extra measure. Before he could continue though he felt the sudden and welcome presence of a pleasingly soft body snake onto him, why, it was none other than the "Fine Councillor" known as Skeloph.
His tone lowered.
"Would you like to see me hard-grill some meat my Lady? I'll do it just for you. Step aside, and watch a man at work." He flexed his spatula arm and then looked to his comrade again.
"BRING THE HEAT!"

It wasn't long before Rintho found himself in great company for the impending dance-off.
"I am very pleased you said that, as it happens it is my personal favourite." He gladly drank from the drink offered to him as he fiddled about with the CD case. "Are you sure you can handle it Del'ure? I may be a polite chap but I will not go easy on you." He smiled innocently, and flicked onto track 6; "The Herding".
Just as he did so, the bright neon-yellow bikini'd girl approached him too.
"Of course you fine young specimen, after this, I'll have it on. Just for you." He did his best attempt at a flirtatious smile, but it fell closer to strange and he caught more "Jealous" looks his way for it.

All at once he then found Syru bundling over to him, and then landing close by in a heap. Just as the banjo strings-techno-mixed intro began to play in the familiar rhythm that he knew and loved, he stroked the little dragon.
"Syru, now is the time for celebration, dance with me and show these others how it's done." He eyed the Surahnian looking woman and beckoned her to come with a wave of his arm. "Show me your moves, and I will show you my most exquisite technique. Let's begin!"

"A girl is to feed me olives?" Atoro suggested, tasting his drink again. Oh, he was going to have to order another one of these off that waiter, he had quite the skill with spirits. And to think, Atoro had always been so adverse to drinking! He half-smiled at Yuzan's strange faces, resting his elbows back against the sand and regarding her with a slightly tilted head until she decided it was his turn to taste the olives. Well, taste, she had probably sucked all the taste off them but, he still got the olive, right?
He tipped his head back and opened wide for her to give him his prize, instantly choking on it, even though he had been expecting it. A red flush came to his cheeks as he tried to compose himself, half chewed bits of olive flying everywhere.

Turning from the Zartibais grill, Zack looked over the beach again, noticing all the new people that had decided to appear in the meantime. How fun! The sight of a stereo was especially exciting, and he quickly zoomed over to it, waving his paws madly.
"Music, we need music! Is there Golam Style? Put that on, it's my favourite!"

Subject: Re: Happy 5th Birthday! Tue Apr 30, 2013 5:14 pm

Yuzan was smiling widely as he took the olive from her pick, however gasped when he began to splutter and cough up the olive. She blinked and leaned back to avoid the shrapnel.
"Oh my baby! My poor baby!" She cooed, taking a wet wipe from the nearby supply bag. Yuzan helped him sit up a bit and thumped on his back to help him choke out the last of the olive bits. "Are you okay Lord Reimeghan? That was quite a reaction!"
With quick hands she then started wiping around his chops, looking at him affectionately until he was all cleaned up. "There, much better isn't it?" She stroked through his hair reassuringly and plucked her glass from one side, holding it up to his lips. "How about something to wash away the bad olive?"

Kassandra was uninterested in the grill and the impending dance off; no, she had greater things on her mind. Long had she put it off, long had she run in fear from it... the unconquerable horror, the terror, the sea.
It was a miracle she had even made it so close to the lightly lapping waves, although she still stood a good few feet away from the great blue yonder. She trembled to see it so close, fiddling at the string of her starry-print bikini, the sequins glittering in the sun. She had told herself she would get to the sea today, but... but it was scary. Those waves, shockingly quick when they wanted to eat your toes, and then even deeper in... what if the floor fell away? What if she couldn't stand up? What if a crab bit her toes??

Atoro choked and spluttered as Yuzan helped him to sit up, wriggling his nose against the taste and unpleasant coughing. "I did not quite expect that, do be more careful on the next mouthful!" He blinked his thanks to her quick attentions, taking a few deep breaths and hacking up even more olive. How could such a small morsel cause such problems? Perhaps he should stick to the cocktails themselves. Her generous offer was well met and he took a long drink, regaining his composure afterwards and patting carefully at his mouth.

Lifting his nose from the sand, Syru gave a feeble snort, trying to get the tiny grains out of his nostrils. With a monumental effort, he managed to stagger across to Rintho on the ground, climbing up his shin and then the leg of his shorts with his needle-like claws to drape himself around the lich's neck. Just as he completed this great journey, a waiter sauntered past bearing a tray of drinks; feeling in need of something to wake him up, Syru stretched his neck down, stuck his nose into a glass of bright pink fluid, and sucked it up in one go. It tasted amazing, sugary and fruity, and instantly he felt more alert. A slight hiccup followed before he scrambled off Rintho's shoulders and began to trumpet, nose stuck into the air.
"Sell'brate! Sell'brate!"

Dekhovra took a few moments to eye up her competition, taking in the neon bikini'd young upstart and the two miniscule dragons which were floating around at head- height. They were easily dismissed as no real opposition. No, the issue would lie with the DJ, an oddly green fellow she thought. Perhaps that was normal here, just like the bizarre nut colour most of the peasants seemed to be. Either way, it was irrelevant, as were the apparently unconcerning stab marks down the man's front. She was here to dance, and dance she would.
Dekhovra took a few seconds to get used to the feel of the music, letting the beat sink in... before taking up the customary starting position for the Plague Shuffle. She counted herself in for a bar or so, then erupted into movement as the chorus of "The Herding" began. Feet sending clouds of sand into the air as they moved crab-like along the beach, elbows flailing wildly up and down and her body thrashing back and forth in time to the music. Her bosom stuck out before her in full force today; it was the only way to /really/ dance the Plague Shuffle.

Skeloph watched Zartear admiringly as he stacked on the burgers. He just had so much meat!
"I do just love my meat good and hard. The natives here don't know how to grill a steak, I've always said." Licking her finger suggestively, she touched it to the surface of the burning steak so that it gave off a sizzle. She had moved around the barbeque so that she was now opposite Zartear, leaning on the small ledge at the back of the massive grill, her upper arms squashing her cleavage into top form. Coyly, she lifted her gaze to look smoulderingly up at him through her eyelashes as she now lifted her finger back to her mouth, sucking the flavour of the meat off it with relish.

"And you should learn to chew your food before you swallow, Lord Reimeghan." She said with a playfully chastising tone, putting her hands on her hips as she sat herself back on his lap. "Now this time, take it nicely, you're practically royalty are you not?" Yuzan took the olive pick and readied another, with a kiss on it for good luck, she circled the olive in loops to his mouth and let him take it.
"There much better my Lord, I knew you had it in you." She teased, once again raising the drink. "And as is customary, how about one for celebration of an olive successfully eaten? I want to see you drunker than your parents on their wedding night Atoro." There was a mischievous grin on her face as she was quick to draw the glass to him, stretching herself out like a blanket over him- and shamelessly too. Though she made sure to keep him somewhat upright, death might impede the amusement.

“Looks like you’re popular,” Sebantais joked in a low murmur to his friend. “Going to have a busy day and night methinks!”
He then turned towards the lady in gold. “You’d better take another step back, we wouldn’t want that delicate piece of cloth catching fire now, would we?” With his one visible eye, he winked at her.
Lifting his wings a little for more effect, Captain Pirate let out a steady stream of sparks and softly heated the burgers with as much love as could possibly be behind a dragon’s fire.

“Ahm, Zack. If you don’t mind, I’m going to leave you here with the dancing girls for a bit while I go take care of something.” Without much thought to the fact that there were men on the dancefloor as well, Selene ignored Del’ure’s flirtatious look and headed back to the firey beast. Something was burning over there, and it definitely wasn’t only the meat on the grill. Oooooh no. Who did she think she was?

The neon-yellow bikini definitely was an eye-catcher and Del’ure couldn’t help but size her up real nice. Until the flowergirl came along, alas, she quickly disappeared again. Apparently she had it in for Princess Leia and the gold bikini.
Every single idea of flirting was thrown into the wind however when Del’ure’s eyes fell on Dekhovra doing the Plague Shuffle. Now that was what he called dancing! “That’s how it’s done! Show them!”
Whooping loudly to cheer her on, he immediately joined her in kicking up some sand clouds.
Bring on the party!
