Open | The Epicurians Present: The 1st of September Beach Bash!

[bleatingedge]

Who ► Leo & Anyone that wishes to join!
What ► BEACH PARTY!!
When ► September 1st
Where ► Δ Haggard Traveler's Reprieve
Content Warnings ► People will be drunk. Will add to if needed

[The time has come... for fun! Δ Haggard Traveler's Reprieve has been decorated with all the niceties that a beach party requires - docks for fishing, large umbrellas to hide from the sun, several tables with sets of chairs for sitting and conversing, and the most obvious addition: a massive roaring bonfire with a big cooking mesh over the top of it for barbecue cookin'!

Leo's wearing a fishing hat and aviators alongside his trademark loincloth-and-nothing-else getup for maximum dissonance. From his position on the other side of the bonfire, he waves a hand at those arriving.]

Welcome to the Beach Bash! Snacks and drinks are on the tables, bottles of sunscreen and crafting tables are under the umbrellas, and complementary fishing gear are at the docks for your convenience. Have fun, friends~

[Emperor Grunty is also here, should you wish to annoy him! He's currently laying in the sand with a reflector. What? Grunties need their sun too!]

[insinning]

I am dating him.

[threatmewted]

Oh, right. That reminds me.

[Sending a picture of blusshu.]

[insinning]

[ ??? who is she sending it to]

Reminds you?

[threatmewted]

Oh, it's nothing.

[insinning]

[...?

Well, okay then. Anyway back to fishing in peace!!!

Creepy placeholder fish get thrown back immediately]

[threatmewted]

[Reeling up a bite herself and - ugh, same exact thing.]

Is that seriously all they've got here?

[insinning]

I think so. I keep trying, but...

[One more go. Casting the fishing rod! Come on, come on]

Maybe they forgot to add real fish to this area.

[threatmewted]

Figures. Maybe they thought we'd be too busy partying to try fishing.

[insinning]

I guess they didn't really think people would want to keep collecting fish here.

[Even though it's a beach?? What else are beaches for??]

[threatmewted]

Pretty dumb move on their part, but after everything so far, I'm not sure why I expected any better.

[insinning]

[Pfft]

Maybe they don't like fishing either.

[threatmewted]

Or maybe they're just half-assing it like the rest of the game updates.

[insinning]

Haha...[After everything, Sinclair can't bring himself to defend the developers at all] Maybe they'll be patched in with the next full update.

[lol]

[threatmewted]

[Her pessimism is spreading.]

I dunno, any kinds of fixes beyond the major ones at this point feel like wishful thinking.

[insinning]

[like a major disease ]

Maybe we'll get more fish when we can go up a profession level.

[threatmewted]

Wanna bet they get more professions patched in before they fix these fish?

[insinning]

I feel like that's a losing bet.

[pause]

...what would you bet though?

[threatmewted]

Why, do you feel like losing?

[insinning]

Just curious.

[threatmewted]

Didn't really think about it, 'cause I kinda figured you wouldn't be dumb enough to take it. But if you want to lose out for real...

[insinning]

I give.

[Nope, no sucker bets for him]

[threatmewted]

[Snickering and reeling in her line, even though there's no bites.]

Well, I think that's enough of a fishing adventure for me.

[insinning]

Alright. I'm going to keep trying for a little longer.

[Just how many of those creepy fish can he pull up before something legitimate appears? Time to test]

[threatmewted]

'K. Later, loser.

[And she's out!]
