The beach- Monday afternoon/evening

[throughaphase]

Okay, so the weather on the unofficial first day of summer could have definitely been more summery. It wasn't cold or raining, though, just not as warm as Kitty would like for a Memorial Day party. And really, at this point, the weather just needed to stop messing with her plans. It was a shorts-and-bikini-top-under-a-hoodie type of day.

But the posters had been around town for days, there were drinks and snacks set up and music playing, and there was a little portable grill set up that someone else might have to take care of because Kitty didn't really want to. Everything was set up, so hopefully people showed up.


[Woo, no RL plans on a day off! Open beach! Come play!]

"It's okay, we'd just make Clint and Derek play it and you'd get the gist of why it's fun."

Oh god, it'd be the most competitive volleyball game ever.

But pretty. Which, for the record, would not be a cause of objection.

"Make them," she repeated, amused if a bit incredulous. "Do you make them do things whenever you feel like it, then?" Look, first the grilling and then this. It was a legitimate question.

"Well... I don't know that I make them do things as much as I just ask nicely," Kitty admitted, thinking about it.

"And it works? Hell." Éponine sounded pretty impressed. "Without even having some awful secret to hold over their heads!"

It was sad how much she was actually surprised by that.

"That's probably why it works," Kitty said with a smile.
