[You know those claw games? Where you've got the stick and you get to direct the arm with the claw to grab a prize? Yeah.

There's a huge one in this room, some arcade-appropriate music playing in the background. Inside the glass are several large oval capsules that look sort of like pills with white not-quite-opaque tops and colourful bottoms. The barest outline of people can be seen through the tops, but it's not enough to make out who specifically is in each one. The game doesn't appear to cost any munny, or any other currency. Do you want to play?]


(ooc: Say if you want someone specific- all my characters are available for this, though I don't have a list available. If you can't pick one, I'll grab one at random. :] All people come with something extra, just so this won't be a get out and walk away sort of deal. Current tags on this post are not the limit to who's available!)

And just how are you going to do that?

[yay! he'll give her some space so she can figure it out.]

[dawnoftime]

I'll figure something out when we're not in water.

[She's going to stop staying in one place for now, because she keeps tilting backwards when she tries.]

[shellsandlight]

Maybe I'll just stay in water then.

[they can look around this place! that'll keep her moving.]

[dawnoftime]

You'll start to miss me.

[Good plan! This way first?]

[shellsandlight]

Maybe. I could just come to the surface here.

[swim this way, we'll laugh and we'll play--]

[dawnoftime]

Sure, and I'll be aaaaall the way down the hall, eating your favorite food.

[So there. Wow okay that dip took her down way further than she meant to go. Watch her tumble in a sort of somersault!]

[shellsandlight]

You sure you're not just trying to quadrant switch?

[trying to be my kismesis there with those threats, Riku???? he's joking, of course, and laughs at her somersault.]

[dawnoftime]

I'm pretty happy with what I've got going now.

[It's an unintentional somersault though, and she shoots him a look while upside down.]

[shellsandlight]

Good.

[pfffhahahaha he's just going to smile innocently at her.]

Need a hand?

[dawnoftime]

[She's going to shake a fist at him!]

Just wait. I'll figure this out.

[shellsandlight]

Maybe you should call it a day instead. We can go for a swim somewhere where you won't grow a tail~.

[he's just teasing, mostly trying to make her feel kind of competitive or something, get her to do her best with it.]

[dawnoftime]

[He gets another flat look as she manages to wriggle sideways onto her stomach.]

I'm not giving up that easy.

[shellsandlight]

Good, I would be worried if you did.

[because really, when does Riku ever give up, easily or not?]

[dawnoftime]

You should be- whoa--

[No wait she's got it. She's going to try swimming in a (very large) circle for a bit. She's got this!]

[shellsandlight]

[time to applaud her! and mean it, of course.]

You're getting it!

[dawnoftime]

[She probably looks like some kind of sea serpent, with her long tail and her horns. But she's concentrating on it now.]

[shellsandlight]

[he thinks she looks really neat! he'll slowly start following her around, grinning.]

[dawnoftime]

[And by sea serpent I meant some sort of sea dragon thing I think. I dunno, 7am on no sleep.

She thinks they both look pretty cool, but also like food. She tries to dive and gets caught up again, but this time she manages to straighten herself out faster.]

You make this look so easy.

[shellsandlight]

I'm sure if we got wings, you'd show me up with that.

[they definitely do look like food. Kai just continues to follow her gleefully, occasionally darting ahead to poke at the plant life.]

how the hell did you do that last tag so fast

[dawnoftime]

Proper wings. Not the ridiculous set that room gave me.

[Did she tell him about the teeny fairy wings in the costume room? Probably. She had to tell him about giving Hachibi a human face, after all.]

MAGIC

[shellsandlight]

[yeah he probably knows about that, and nods.]

Of course proper wings!

[dawnoftime]

[It was hilarious. Also now she's going to go around looking for a room to give her proper (read: dragon-like) wings now. But she settles into a slow swim to follow him, finally getting the hang of it without tripping up.]

[shellsandlight]

[oh good, now they can properly explore this place! this is exciting!!]

How far do you want to go?

[dawnoftime]

[Yes! She'll let him lead, though, because he's still way better at this than she is.]

As far as you want. Unless I suddenly turn normal we should be good.

[...don't let her drown, Kai.]

[shellsandlight]

Okay, let's go!

[don't worry, he'd definitely save her if she turned normal!]
