EVENT: LIFE'S A BEACH

EVENT: LIFE'S A BEACH


Is it hot in here, cuddlers, or is it just us? No, it's definitely hot — the end of summer is here, and a few miles out from the city, on the beach, the scene is set: if you’ve been able to follow’s Baby’s clues, they led you here.

The dress code is — surprise, surprise — beachwear, but do think of bringing some layers to cover up these beautiful bikinis and all, because the night could get a little chilly if you stray too far from that bonfire. And, of course, if you don’t want to be that exposed, it’s not like the dress code is a mandatory thing, either. (Just don't be surprised if you hear a few disappointed groans from the audience if you come all covered up.)

The first thing that can be seen is a BAR, with a large poster advertising CriminALES at its front. Like any good beach bar, beers and cocktails with tiny little umbrellas in them can be obtained for a small price — or for free, if you're suave enough to impress the bartender on duty. Nearby, SNACK TABLES feature a veritable buffet of edibles, ranging from chips to brownies to crudites and dips (all courtesy of Kimberly and Clary, thank you!). However, if you felt like bringing your own food and alcohol to the party, you won’t be turned away.

Further down the beach, dry wood has been piled up in what looks like an imminent BONFIRE; if you're a little too delicate to rest on the sand, don't worry — there are plenty of bean bags, cushions, and blankets. Feel free to cuddle up to someone familiar, or maybe a new friend, and enjoy the roaring fire once the sun sets.

Beyond the obvious entertainment of the sun, surf, and sand, your party planners have gone to great lengths to ensure everyone is ready to have a great time. Near the bar, inflated beach balls and other toys are strewn around, and the beach's VOLLEYBALL COURT is no stranger to a game or two. As the night goes on, there just might be a few DRINKING GAMES started — "spin the bottle", anyone?

Of course, a party hosted by Baby himself wouldn't be the same without the all-important KILLER TUNES. Nestled directly to the side of the seating area, a makeshift DJ booth flanked by tiki torches serves as the beating heart of the party, and marks the start of a large square expanse of sand, a DIY DANCE FLOOR cordoned off by a large speaker in each of the four corners, all connected by links of colorful bunting.

As promised, the MUSIC will be blasting until the morning, ranging from massive party tunes (no, but seriously) to romantic ballads for those who feel like a slow dance. There are also, strewn around, some serious dancing jams because what’s a party without some exquisitely cheesy songs? Later on, when there is less dancing and more lounging around, quieter, softer classics will be put on as background music. Feel free to MAKE A REQUEST (or ten), or even steal the mic and sing a little song yourself!

Come on down, Cadelle, and give the summer one last hurrah before it goes away. As the unimitable Ella Fitzgerald would say, "it's summertime, and the livin' is easy."

( well, okay. if kara looks a little surprised by that, it's because she is. people don't normally look at her and assume she's going to give great recommendations, mostly because they look at her and assume she's going to fall over in a heap at the sheer mention of alcohol.

luckily for kate, she's served plenty today. )


This one's pretty popular. ( a tall clear bottle, filled with a surprisingly bright orange brew — a schofferhofer seems like just the right pick for a girl with equally colorful hair. ) Do you like grapefruit?

that's actually one of my favourite drinks tho

( And, luckily for Kara, Kate has seen a lot of innocent looking girls drink people under the table. She tends not to judge... on that at least. She'll judge on plenty of other things.

As for the drink, she eyes it, head tilted.
) In beer?

( She's seen drinks like this back home but never tried them before. But she does like the colour orange. )

Sure, why not.

Lighter in the heat, I guess.

( a shrug, and kara takes a sip from her own drink, a bubbly cold ginger ale poured into a clear plastic cup. it's not beer, but then again, did anyone really expect it to be? )

Do you like it?

( Maybe. And avoiding drink on the clock might not be the worst thing. Have you ever tried working with a hangover? Nasty business. And with the general mess that comes with being drunk... Well, even Kate hasn't tried working with more than a shot of alcohol inside of her. )

It's-

( Tangy. Things that shouldn't really go together but do. )

Actually pretty good. Balances out th' weight of the beer. You tried it before?

( It's actually a little easier to drink than some beers she's opted for in the past. )

( she's admittedly not an expert on earth-based liquors — or any liquor, for that matter — so it's with a bit of an apologetic frown that kara admits, ) I don't really drink, actually. But I've heard it's really good?

( at least she's honest about it. )

What do you normally get?

( The only sign of surprise from Kate is her blinking, a slight shift in her expression. She doesn't know many, if any, people who "don't really drink", but maybe that's more a reflection on herself and her life than anything else.

Besides, it isn't her place to push. Even on something as seemingly insignificant as that. But Kara asks a question that she can answer pretty easily.

Comes to beer? Heineken's usually a safe bet. Usually end up drinking summat stronger after a while. ( Shots. Lots of shots. )
