Yep. Another one. Why? 'Cause I have nothing better to do at work (and finish up at home).

Pick 8 Original Characters. List them right here. Remember if you don’t want to suck at life, don’t peek. Feel free to insert names in place of the numbers. This is also a bit of a writing challenge. Even in the most impossible situations, think of each character’s honest reaction and have fun writing it.

1. Riley
2. Micaiah
3. Naomi
4. Ian
5. Zhavon
6. Wil
7. Hayden
8. Wren

I. Your OCs are taking a bus to the beach. : D With not enough OCs to fill a regular sized bus, you rent a short bus and are mistaken for some less than smart people. Who is the person to prove this a fact and who is the person to fix the problem?

Wil and Zhavon probably act goofy and silly enough to raise some questions. And if ever there was a party-killer, it's Ian. He would mind-control everyone into blind submission.



II. The bus breaks down on the way. 1(Riley) and 7(Hayden) go off walking to the nearest gas station. What’s the most efficient way to work together or who is most likely to fucks up the mission?

I think they'd get along pretty well, unless Riley started barking orders and snapping at him for no reason, or if Hayden got a phone call from the guys who control his brain. >.>



III. The bus is back on the road. Whether it was one and seven’s doing or the magical work of leprechauns, the beach party bus has arrived at its destined palace by the sea. 3(Naomi) and 5(Zhavon) are sent to get the room keys. Does it happen, and how? If it doesn’t, what happened?

Oh, it happens. Eventually. After Naomi and Zha get distracted by the bikini shop, in which they spend hours trying on suits to better torment their respective beau's.



IV. Finally! The OCs make it to the beach! The group decides to have a castle building contest and 4(Ian) and 6(Wil) become the main contenders. Any skill whatsoever is allowed. Who wins and how? What prize are they awarded?

Being a certified professional beach bum, Wil almost wins (having rather masterfully recreated Sherbrooke Castle) before Ian takes over Wil's mind, forces him to destroy his own castle, and thus wins by default.



V. Time for a swim break! Everyone grabs a floaty and head on in. But 2(Mica) and 8(Wren) grab the same one and begin to fight for it. They realize the other one left is broken. How do they resolve this problem?

Reluctantly, with the promise that she'll be able to use it next time, Wren relinquishes the floaty to Mica and spends the time sun-bathing instead so she can show Hawke her tan lines when they get back.




VI. Nice swim everyone. Now it’s time for fun BBQing. The food of choice is Hot Dogs. As everyone knows, 3(Naomi) and 7(Hayden) are in charge of cooking the food. How long can each go making puns about the hot dogs before one breaks down in laughter?

I give them about three and a half exchanges each. They're both entirely too silly for their own good.



VII. Everyone had a good dinner now time for some dancing. Everyone suits up in beach themed costumes.(Grass skirts, hawaiian shirts, bikinis etc.) When suddenly 1(Riley) and 5(Zhavon) realize they have the same outfit on, oh no! The outfit consists of a starfish bra (Think starfish instead of coconut.) a matching starfish print thong, shell-wear, lays, and grass skirt. Time for a walk off. Who looks the best in the outfit? Feel free to turn to the rest of the OCs for judgment.

Mica: Wil. >.>

Me: XD Doesn't count (and don't let Erik hear you say that).

In the end, I think Zha would win. She has an easier time letting loose and having fun. That, and the blue hair would totally match the motif.



VIII. The night moves along and the drinks are passed around. The group pulls itself together and decides to do truth or dare. (All truths and dares beach themed of course.) It’s 2(Mica)’s turn and they pick 6(Wil). What is 2(Mica)’s question to 6(Wil) and how does 6(Wil) reply?

Mica: Truth or dare?

Wil: Truth.

Mica: Wuss.

Wil: *rolls eyes* Just ask the question.

Mica: Okay. Ever had sex on your surfboard?

Wil: ..........dare.

Mica: Hey! That's cheating!

Wil: Look at the time! *yawn* Think I'll turn in.

Mica: It's five-thirty!

Wil: >.> Early to bed, early to rise.

Mica: You suck.

Wil: *flee!*


IX. Everyone’s been drinking for a while now. 4(Ian) and 8(Wren) are sent to go out and get more liquor. Either because they’re the least drunk or because they can keep the straightest faces why hammered. (I’ll let you choose.) What comes out during this brief period away from the group?

Ian: I really hate you all. Just thought you should know.

Wren: *blink* Why?

Ian: I don't take vacations. I don't take a break. I'm not going to get my name on the District Attorney's office door by goofing off at the beach.

Wren: You work too much.

Ian: >.< You sound like my ex.

Wren: Maybe she's right.

Ian: *stare* Maybe you are my ex... Anine, if that's you in disguise, I'm going to do horrible things to you.

Wren: Dude, you have serious issues.

Ian: Who doesn't?

Wren: I dunno. I'm pretty normal. My dad owns a garage, my mom is a journalist, I've never had anything extraordinary really happen. My life's been comfortably mundane, but not boring.

Ian: I think I hate you most of all...

Wren: *sigh*



X. It was a fun first day and night at the beach. So fun that the next morning everyone wakes up to find themselves in fun positions. Due to mostly revealing costumes + liquor+ good times, most of OCs are scantily dressed or naked.


2(Mica) Wakes up to find themselves laying on the back porch lawn chairs with 8(Wren) in their very snuggly lap, with bananas in each hand. Walking into the house to find everyone else, they see 4(Ian) and 5(Zhavon) on the couch atop of the each other. 4(Ian) is holding a bucket of cold water near and 5(Zhavon) if pretty moist. Waking them up they all hunt for the others and find 1(Riley), 3(Naomi), 6(Wil), 7(Hayden) in an empty hot tub with blankets pillows and all. 3(Naomi) is holding sling shot tightly in hand. And 7(Hayden) keeps mumbling about a pineapple, and 6(Wil) is clutching tightly to 1(Riley).


First of all what is all of their reactions. And what do they think happened?

Mica: *holds his breath to keep from laughing and grabs his camera*

Wren: *stare*

Mica: *snaps away*

Wren: *stare*

Ian: Buh...? HEY! You sonofabitch, drop that camera!

Zhavon: *screams when Ian knocks the bucket of water over onto her*

Mica: *laughs uproariously*

Wren: *stare*

Ian: I said, drop it! *leaps up*

Zha: *falls to the floor* Ow! Hey!!

Mica: *laughs harder and runs*

Ian: *skids to a stop outside*

Wren: *stare*

Ian: *stare*

Hayden: dskfnghagpineapple....

Ian: What'd he say?

Mica: I'm not sure I wanna know. And... you know, the bananas Wren had kinda make sense, but that sling-shot... it's freaking me out a little.

Ian: You have a very sick mind, boy.

Wren: *stare*

Zhavon: I'm cold.

Wil: *snore*

Zhavon: And wet.

Hayden: rgoiwohqpineapple...

Mica: *looks at Wren* Why did you have bananas?

Wren: *stare*

Zhavon: I'm going home. Too much weirdness not coming from my own pack. *flees back to shake on Nero*

Ian: There are so many potentials for law-suits here.

Naomi: *curls around the sling-shot*

Ian: I wonder if it's still too late to leave and retain some plausible deniability.

Mica: I have pictures.

Ian: I hate you.

Hayden: Pineapplesgogoiqhogh...

Mica: *snaps a few more and nudges Wil and Riley* Okay, kiddies, time to get up.

Wil: *mumbles, yawns, and rolls over*

Riley: *brushes Mica off, but gets up a few minutes later and trudges out of the hot tub, disappearing into the bathroom*

Wren: *stare*

Mica: Come on, surf boy.

Wil: *lifts his head* Cara?

Mica: Nooooo...

Wil: zzzzzzz...

Mica: You suck. Naomi, come on. Up and at 'em.

Naomi: Nudge me, and I'll shoot you in the balls. Been practicing with Eli, and I've got really, really good aim now.

Mica: *backs away*

Wren: *stare*

Ian: Oh, for God's sake, get up so we can all go.

Naomi: *glares, but gets up, makes a threatening gesture with the sling-shot at Ian, and heads into her room*

Mica: If I didn't know these people better, I'd be really, really concerned.

Ian: *shrugs* I went to college. I've seen worse.

Mica: The only thing I can't figure...

Ian: Hm?

Mica: *points* Him.

Hayden: sdhgwhpineapplekdjwueir...

Ian: You probably don't want to know.

Mica: No, I probably don't.

All: *get dressed, pack up, and leave*

Naomi: Now I know why Eli hates vacations so much.

Wil: Oh, come on. It's not like it was bad.

Riley: Just weird. And daily life is strange enough for me, thanks.

Ian: Any of you ever bring this up in my presence, and I'll sue you to death.

Mica: *leans back, looks at Zha, points at his camera, and mouths 'Myspace'*

Wren: *stare*

Hayden: *still in the hot tub at the beach* ...zzzzzpineapple...
