It's Party Time [ Open ]
Who: Jim Kirk & You!
Broadcast: Nope
Action: Yes, Planet-side @ Alloy Lake
When: Sometime in the evening
While it wasn't broadcasted, between how many people were told and the fact it wasn't exactly a private affair on a very public beach, anyone was welcome to come to this little shindig. Kirk's feelings were mostly that they all could use a break and a chance to relax together as friends, family, teammates, or any other word you chose to assign to the relationships you had on the Fleet. It was a nice break from working in projects too. It was nice to have something to occupy yourself in a creative and useful way, but it was always a good idea to take a break and refresh the brain now and then.
Which was how he came to the idea of a party on Alloy Lake.
He scouted a scrap of land near the water to set up on - beach towels, a cooler with drinks, a mocked up grill to cook some food. He went out later in the afternoon to start with more than enough light to enjoy some swimming, though it would be dark soon enough for certain members to join without being uncomfortable. At which point, a bonfire was built. What? A lack of sunlight is never a reason to stop partying! Especially not with such good company.
[ ooc: It's a party on the beach! Make your own starters and have some fun! There's drinks - alcoholic and non - food, a couple of games or make your own, a bonfire later in the night with of course means some kind of smore, swimming, and more. In terms of invite, you can assume you were directly told by Kirk, or told by someone else, or the grapevine. It's open to all, so don't worry to much about it. Have fun! ]

I simply meant in comparison to the majority of the people here.
[Which is a fair point given the ages of most of the people they know here.]
Also, I think you're more flustered because you know I was very much paying attention to the time and place.

[Do not play on words with him, you cheeky pup.]
Anyway... have you tried the food yet?
no subject
[He winks at him.]
The meat smells very tasty though.
no subject
[You know, instead of having dalliances in public.]
I did not realize swimwear fashion had evolved to be quite so.... minimalistic.

[Guess who has just discovered that neon yellow is apparently a thing.]
no subject
[That's being...generous.]
And so many clash quite terribly. It's quite the assault on the senses.
no subject
[Because turquoise and neon pink were never meant to be seen together.]
Let's go get food. That should distract us from the scenery for a little while.
no subject
[He takes Lyall's hand in his and smiles at him.]
Shall we?
