Kingdom Hearts - Blades of Three Realms

[Kuukyo_Fushichou]

Shiro seemed to be floating about in meditation at a diagonal angle compared to everyone else, a small bit of sweat forming on his brow while Roveth meanwhile had beend idly pretending to be swimming through the air playfully.. for once acting like a kid. as for Shiroi Senko? cue the bird flying around everyone protectively and going 'ooh shiny!' at every new thing and all. either way Shiro seemed to be having the most trouble of the group in keeping himself aloft (probably due to his all-suffering hero status...) but he was doing it with constant vigilance and a -bit- of meditation.  

[[XIII] Roxas]

Crystal would see that Shiro was struggling to remain aloft and begin to right herself into a more normal right-side-up flight orientation. "I've got an idea," she would then grab a hold of both him and Roveth by the hand. "Xion, grab Roxas and bring him over here."

Roxas blinked. "Huh? What's going on?"

"I think we're playing some kind of game," Xion would reply while doing as she was asked.

"Now everybody take a hand and hold on tight," Crystal would nod and wait until they were all in position. And then they would commence with the spinning in place while gradually going faster and faster. This would continue until they lost their grip and were flung a good distance away from the rotational momentum.

"What exactly is the point of this!" Roxas would demand.

"It's fun!" Crystal would explain with obvious amusement because apparently her inner child was calling the shots today.

"Hang on, I think I can probably get us spinning faster," Roxas would smirk and up the ante by adding his own speed to their rotational velocity.

"Now you're getting it," Crystal would be grinning as she struggled to maintain her grip on Shiro and Roveth. Poor Shiro was going to be so dizzy after this!  

[Kuukyo_Fushichou]

Roveth of course would giggle like a little kid, which actually sounds pretty hilarious given he was usually the stern serious one of the two, meanwhile Shiro blinked, and looked around him before seeing the spinning starting, giving off a sweatdrop "eh? what in the..." of course, faster and faster Shiro goes, when they stop, only gravity knows! but seriously, when they got fast enough to be flung off from Shiro, he would spiral around and around sideways now havving the Kenshin 'Oro?!?' face while still continuing to spin and spin like a hapless leek or something like that. Roveth of course just giggled watching Shiro while Shiroi Senko was still in ADD mode...  

[[XIII] Roxas]

Roxas would recover easily after being flung away in a random direction through the air. "You know, that really was fun," he chuckled mildly. He was even up to have another go at it, although it looked Shiro was absolutely KO-ed by that first round.

Xion was also laughing once she recovered. This was so different from her time with the Organization. There was no mission, no real purpose for even being here, not to mention following Crystal's lead was far from boring. "How do you come up with this stuff?" she wondered.

Crystal would have recovered as well while grinning. "I've probably got a million of them, but I never got to use most of them because it used to just be me and Shiro and certain games need way more people."

There would then be the distance battle cry of "Where is Peter Pan?!" accompanied by cannon fire from the vicinity of the Jolly Roger forcing the group of airborne Keyblade wielders plus one Chocobo to have to evade the high speed projectile.

"Why are they shooting at us?" Xion asked in alarm.

"I dunno, but now I kinda want to hijack their ship," Crystal would smirk, cracking her knuckles in contemplation. "How are you all at sailing?"

Roxas shrugged. "Never done it, but how hard can it be?"  

[Kuukyo_Fushichou]

thankfully, Roveth moved out of the way with -almost- laziness when the cannonball came into play, and shiro was still spinning way off to the side so he'd be avoided, Shiroi Senko of course wark'ed and zoomed upwards to avoid being nailed as well. either way, Roveth raised an eyebrow at Crystal's idea, and smirked a bit lightly "yarr har shivver me be, being a pirate is alright with me~!" he said with a two fingered salute. Shiro, once he managed to shake off his dizziness face and righted himself noticing the grins from everyone and having only heard something about hijacking and pirates, looked towards where they were looking, and gave off a chuckle "well this should be interesting." he said, while Shiroi Senko flew on by and bowled Shiro into another flipping spin with a yeep and resuming dizzy face.  

[[XIII] Roxas]

Suffice to say hijacking the pirate ship was a resounding success. Captain Hook would be seen running on the surface of the water with his pants on fire after a well-aimed Fire spell while the rest of the crew piled into the lifeboat and Smee would paddle furiously after the Captain as he raced to shore. Afterward Roveth, or should I say Captain Roveth, would be free to take the helm, although it wasn't really necessary given that the ship was actually anchored in the lagoon.

Shortly thereafter it would be more or less unanimously decided that using the ship as a central hub made their present position an ideal place to take a swim and so the swimsuits would come out. Shiro and Roveth would most definitely recognize the sparkling silver bikini worn by Crystal in this instance while Xion would been seen to be wearing a slightly more humble navy blue number in that department.

Roxas would of course be predictably donning a pair of mainly white swim trunks with a checkerboard pattern. He and Xion would be the only ones genuinely surprised by Crystal's choice of attire for the occasion, but that wouldn't last long as Crystal had other things in mind to distract from her choice of swimwear. More specifically she had begun performing comical and elaborate skits about how the ship's plank was actually a bridge to the mainland or some other excuse to go running out at full speed only to plummet dramatically into the ocean below. Crystal's dramatic gestures combined with the multitude of silly voices she used for the various character archetypes she portrayed meant that Roxas and Xion were finding it difficult not to laugh each time she plummeted over the edge. And, of course, after a little while spent solely on watching Crystal's antics the two would want to join in with their own attempts at comically falling into the water.  

[Kuukyo_Fushichou]

Roveth of course didn ot mind being called Captain, as he watched in general with the skits going on with Crystal, though he did look heavily amused at seeing the silver bikini coming out. Shiro of course was paying attention to nothing but his own fire red shorts, compared to Roveth's purple and blue lightning based ones, before Roveth noticed the mentally occupied Shiro, smirking, and nabbed shiro by the back of his neck "hey! what the..." of course, shiro squirmed and struggled all the same "Yarr! ye be actin' like a filthy Bilgerat, ye are, for that, ye WALK THE PLANK!!!!" of course, there was a whole skit staged between those two with it being even more comical with how Roveth argued in pirate speech while shiro was trying to defend himself.. only to get marched right off and dunked right into the waters with Roveth smiling afterwards like a happy and content kid, and shiro coming up, spluttering a few moments, and giving a lopsided smile from that bit of antics.

of course, this was all what Axel and Demyx walked into after exiting the Corridor of Darkness, blinking at where he was "wait, is this Hook's Ship?" Roveth responded with a sharp "Nae, Landlubber!~ tis be the ship of Captain Roveth!" of course, axel just raised an eyebrow and looked amused in general while Demyx would just chuckle at seeing how everyone was acting and all. "looks like you guys are havin' a splash." he said with amusement, before noticing Shiro in the water, and with a quick strumming, blasted him out of the water and back onto deck with a wet plop! "ugh.. thanks Demyx." he said with amused chuckles coming from Axel and Roveth both.  

[[XIII] Roxas]

"Hello again, Demyx," Xion would of course greet this other familiar face from the Organization. She hadn't spent as much time with him as she did with Roxas and with Axel, but he was definitely one of the nice ones as far as the Organization's members were concerned.

"We chased off the crew so the ship is ours for the moment," Roxas explained while suppressing his own laughter. "At least until they decide to come take it back from us."

"It was their own fault for firing the cannons at us," Crystal added having procured a discarded pirate's hat which she now wore deliberately lopsided whilst raising a cutlass to the heavens while standing precariously on the edge of the ship. "Before that we would have been content to goof off flying around the island jungle, but after that how could we possibly refuse their challenge?" She then feigned like she had lost her balance again and toppled over the side giggling uncontrollably before splashing down in the water. She remained submerged briefly before rising up from the water to fly her way back onto the deck completely with her now sopping wet pirate hat with water pouring down from the brim.

"Hey Axel, can we keep her?" Roxas became afflicted with yet another severe fit of laughter from watching this latest spectacle of outright silliness.

Xion was laughing again too. "I don't think you need Axel's permission for that Roxas."  

[Kuukyo_Fushichou]

Axel just chuckled a bit while shaking his head "now now Roxas, what'd i tel lyou about picking up strays?" he said with a opsided grin, while Shiro just watched with a smile, yeah, it was much more a relaxing fun day. of course Roveth just grinned a bit lightly while Demyx just leaned against the mast while deciding to watch "good to see ya again too Xion. so this is the group you've been hanging with Axel?" Axel nodded while grinning "yup, Trouble-magnet aside, they're a good bunch." of course Roveth snuck over and whispered into Axel's ear, who made him grin a bit "oh-ho... double-team?" he said, before the two of them looked to Shiro and Demyx respectively, thankfully the sitarist had dismissed Arpeggio as he noticed the looks he was getting "uh... can we talk about this?" he said with a sweatdrop, while Roveth somehow managed to procure hook's hat, and held up a finger "i say Nae you scurvy dog! for aiding my imbicile of a light side.. its time for ye to Walk The Plank!" he then turned to Axel "Aye, First Mate Axel, since i had the honors of making my light walk the plank.. ye have the honors of sending this scurvy dog to the watery depths below!" Axel of course stood at attention "Aye Aye, Captain!" with that, he'd proceed to frog-march Demyx to the end of the plank "ye heard the captain... Walk!" Demyx of course yelped and such from a prod of axel's Chakram points and of course flungh imself off the plank while Axel and roveth laughed, high-fiving each other with a not so amused Demyx staring up at the ship but he did grin as well eventually, not a big dopey grin tho like Shiro did when he came back to the surface.  

[[XIII] Roxas]

"Mysterious magician, thieving thief, and perpetrator of misguided heroics, but I don't think anyone has ever likened me to a stray before," Crystal considered before slipping over to place her sopping wet and extremely lopsided pirate hat on Roxas. "But it looks like Axel just got himself promoted to first mate and I'm pretty sure Shiro is probably our cabin boy."

"Wait, no one seriously calls you all of those things, do they?" Roxas thought it sounded fishy.

"Those are just titles I've given myself at one point or another," Crystal answered with a snicker. "But I am good with magic and I won't deny being a thief because I've been one more than once. Never really stole anything, but it wasn't for a lack of trying."

"Well, technically speaking, we did steal the ship," Xion noted with another chuckle. Roxas was looking pretty ridiculous in that hat too.

"That's true, but we'll still be giving it back once we decide to leave," Crystal rubbed the back of her head looking a bit sheepish. "Still, how about we get Demyx back up here and see if we can get some music going."

"Huh, that's not a bad idea," Roxas agreed. He ventured over to the side of the ship and glanced overboard. "Hey Demyx, how are you at the whole flying thing? Do you need some help getting out of there?"

Crystal glanced over to Axel and Roveth, knowing full well one or both of them was probably going to knock Roxas over the side next what with him putting himself in a prime position to be targeted and all. "He really should know better by now," she would murmur to herself.

"I think maybe he forgot," Xion agreed as they both watched with anticipation to see how Roxas would be dispatched from the ship.  

[Kuukyo_Fushichou]

Demyx just snorted and shook his head lightly "no worries Roxas." he said, bringing back out Arpeggio, and with a few notes, would be shot into the air by the water, only to gracefully land on the back of roxas's head, bounce off, and land onto the deck.. now whether or not Roxas doesn't fall into the drink, well, that's up to his sense of balance now isn't it?


Roveth and axel meanwhile had managed to take up swordplaying and 'fighting' each other, the clashing of swords and all in such exaggerated ways started to get on Shiro's nerves, given while he knew they were acting on purpose, it still ranked him given he -was- a swordsman, and movign like that... "alright that's it!" seems it didn't take long to rile him up as he got up and charged at Roveth to toss him in the water next... only for Roveth to glance behind himself, and sidestepped just right, leaving a suddenly 'huh'ing' shiro barreling right into Crystal instead. "whoops. my bad." he said cheekily.  

[[XIII] Roxas]

Roxas was leaning too far over the edge to catch his balance when Demyx used his head as a springboard and went flailing down into the water yet again.

Crystal would have the good sense to drop the cutlass she was holding as she was barreled into by Shiro and knocked unceremoniously overboard. Since she wasn't doing so on purpose she wasn't fully prepared for it and came up flailing and spluttering once she returned to the surface.

"You okay?" Roxas hadn't flown back up quite yet and he noticed she wasn't exactly laughing about her latest displacement into the ocean.

"Yeah, I just wasn't ready for it that time," Crystal answered while levitating herself to a more comfortable altitude. She was a bit tempted to try to scare everyone topside by possibly summoning Leviathan, but that would probably be overkill for the Jolly Roger. But then she came up with a much simpler solution. "Hang on just a second," Crystal told Roxas before he decided to head back up to the deck. "Otherwise you'll get hit by this too."

Roxas blinked, not really certain what was going on at first until he noticed she intended to use magic of some kind.

"Zero Graviga!" Crystal shot the inverse gravity magic onto a section of the water's surface causing it to rise up over the side of the ship and then promptly negated the magic that was keeping it suspended in midair so that it would splash down over the deck like a controlled wave.

"I'm pretty sure that spell was never intended to be used that way," Roxas observed before flying up to see the aftermath.

"What can I say?" Crystal grinned a bit. "Being unconventional is more fun."

Suffice it to say that Xion hadn't seen what was coming until it was much too late to get out of the way which meant it was probably too late for Shiro, Roveth, Axel, and Demyx to avoid being drenched by Crystal's newly coined 'Giant Splash' technique as well.  

[Kuukyo_Fushichou]

of course, this meant both Shiro and Demyx were waterlogged again, and flung about on the deck by the water. Axel and Roveth were as well, though the waterlogging was their first time as Roveth sputtered and spat up water, before he and Axel looked at each other. "should i...?" Axel shook his head a bit, chuckling "nah, i think that's enough playing in the water." he said, while they both shook like dogs to get out most of the loose weater from their body at least.

Shiro of course just sputtered and sighed with a smile, while demyx gave off a little pout at getting wet again "Oi! no fair on dunking us like that and playing favorites with Roxas, cheater!" but then again he just shrugged it off with a smile, and summoned arpeggio, and begun playing some random pirate song with the sitar.. oh, wait, no, that's bink's Sake... how did he..? oh, right. recon specialist.  

[[XIII] Roxas]

"That's probably a good idea," Roxas agreed as he lowed himself back on deck. "Things were starting to get a little out of hand anyway."

Crystal landed too. Unfortunately, while she had finally succeeded at landing a watery hit on Roveth and Axel, it was true what they say--cheats never prosper--because of course she'd also drenched her own clothes in the process. She put them back on anyway because truth be told now that she wasn't playing the silly entertainer on deck she was feeling more self conscious and exposed about the whole silver bikini thing. But hey, at least the music was good and there was still plenty of daylight left during which to slowly dry off.

"Wow, Demyx, that sounds amazing!" Xion found a comfortable spot to sit so she could carry on listening to him play. "What kind of world did you pick that song up from?"  

[Kuukyo_Fushichou]

Axel loooked like he could've dried everyone's clothes off, but as a rebuttal to the Zero Graviga water bomb, he decided to let everyone suffer. Demyx meanwhile just chuckled a bit "funny enough it comes from a world of pirates, but the pirate i got the song from was actually much more friendly and musically inclined and lighthearted than say, Port Royal and those miscreants." Axel pondered a bit, tilting his head to Demyx "interesting... i always wondered if there were more fun pirate-type worlds than Port Royal, it -is- a bit gritty..."

Roveth just shook his head with a chuckle a bit, before settling down on a bundle of rope and all "well now that everyone's had fun and gotten wet, and i've thoroughly annoyed my light half, what should we do next, get back to flying, or listen to Demyx's song playing?" he asked, while Shiro raised a hand "i vote for listening to Demyx!" Axel of course grinned and poked a hand up "Flying!" of course Shiro rolled his eyes at Axel while Demyx chuckled a bit "i'm fine with either or." he said with a laidback smile, as it was letting him be lazy and not do anything strenuous like fighting or training.
