Some sand and surf and fun!

[thehighcost]

Who: Death (thehighcost) and Rue (treehopping)
When: Monday, June 28th, 12:00 pm.
Where: The beach!
Summary: It's a beautiful day, and Death is going to teach Rue how to swim.
Warnings: None that I can imagine.

[A beautiful day, and Death needed a break. With so much death and dying going around this city, the sickness was slowly running it's course. She was still working, of course; even when she was having fun, she was always working. That's how it went, when you were an idea, versus a person.

But it was warm, and the weather was beautiful, and it was time to have some fun. She had a big umbrella and towels, and even some buckets for them to collect seashells in. This was going to be great!]

No, I never travelled. Except to go the Capitol... and now here.

[The slight trace of melancholy disappears as she perks.] It must be very exciting. What's the best place you've ever been?

[thehighcost]

The Capitol? That sounds like it might be exciting. It's a lot different then back home, right?

[She hums.] That's a tough one! One time, I got to go to a masked ball. It was in a place that was stuck in time, in Italy. I got to wear a fancy dress, and a fox mask, and it was so much fun!

[treehopping]

It was exciting, and very big... everything was so... rich. That's what it was like, Rich and colourful. Strange.

Oh I'd like to go to one of those! I'd be a bird.

[thehighcost]

It sounds strange. [She nods seriously.] I like things a little simple, don't you? That's why I try to keep my apartment small. It's just me and my two fish!

[She claps her hands in glee.] You would be a beautiful bird! Have you ever heard of Halloween? In October, everyone dresses up in beautiful costumes, and they can go door to door for candy! It's so much fun, and you get to keep all the candy that you want.

[treehopping]

That sounds nicer. I mean the Capitol looked nice but it felt wrong...

[Excuse me what is this wonderful piece of information!!] Oh no I haven't! That sounds great! I'd definately dress up for that!

[thehighcost]

[She understands, she really does. And she is all for talking about something fun and exciting, instead of something that was painful to think about.]

It's so much fun! You'll see, everyone dresses up and goes to the Underground Mall. And you can never say no to free candy, right?

[treehopping]

No, candy is the best! [She grins.] Everybody can do this?

[thehighcost]

Everyone! Even if you're super old, you can still go around and get candy. I love dressing up, too. I get a mask, and sometimes I wear a hat, or other times I'll wear a big ball gown! You can wear whatever you want. And when you get the candy, you should use a big pumpkin bucket, or a pillow case. That way, you can get the most candy.
