Docked in Dollet - OPEN to everyone in Garden

[wrnpcs]

[At 0900 hours, the announcement bell chimes and once again a voice much more youthful than the Headmaster's begins to speak.]

Good morning, inhabitants of Balamb Garden! This is your pilot Nida speaking. Now that we're docked in Dollet, it's time to get our vacation on! That's right - everyone's free to leave Garden and stretch their legs. Hyne knows I will! [He sounds so eager and can't help but give a little laugh.]

Please remember to stay safe while exploring and don't go getting into too much trouble! Oh! I forgot - curfew. I know I know. Not something you want to hear, s-sorry! Anyways. About that curfew. Good news! All cadets are given an extra half-hour in which they must return to Garden for the remainder of the night. Instead of having to check in at 2300 hours, curfew for this week is 2330 hours.

Don't worry though. We'll be here all week! Plenty of time to sight see and whatever else you want to get done.

Have fun, everyone! Maybe we'll bump into each other.

[The announcement ends, and the intercom clicks off.]


[Mod note: Here's the kick off to the week of vacation for the cadets! For those who are unfamiliar with Dollet, information about the city can be found here. Students are free to roam around the city or keep within Garden if they so desire. The second term will start August 1st-- until then, it's vacation time!

Party-style tags/threads are more than welcome. Mingle, chat, action!

Also note; if there are any interested in trying their hand at getting Siren while in Dollet, more information can be found here. Feel free to PM us and we'll help you set that up. :)]

[Oh no they didn't. Toph stumbles forward slightly, her sight not as good on sand as it is on hard ground.

She would not stand for this. Not at all. As they start walking away, her stance changes, her hands flowing in the familiar motions. Sand comes up from behind the girls in a large wave, and then crashes down on them.]

[wrnpcs]

[Of course they shriek, surprised by the sudden attack. As if in unison all three of them turn to face the smaller cadet.]

You're going to regret that! [Girl 2 shouts, stomping a foot.]

No one throws sand at us!

Yeah! No one!

[The one girl drops the basket to the sand and they all glare at her.]

[snotbending.livejournal.com]

Yeah, yeah. I'll regret it. Whoopie.

[Toph looks unamused, really.] Let me know when you're gonna stop complaining.

[wrnpcs]

[Girl 2 whips her towel at Toph, flinging sand back at her. Girl 3 follows her example, flinging her towel as well to fling even more sand forward.]

We'll stop as soon as you leave!

[snotbending.livejournal.com]

[Really? Flinging sand? A quick motion, and a wall of sand erupts from the ground. She pushes it forward, and at the last second, it splits, falling apart.]

I'm not leaving, you big blahs! Go pick on someone who cares!

[wrnpcs]

[More shrieking and now the girls flail their arms, towels shaking out. They have--]

--Sand in my hair!

--Sand down my suit!

Forget this- let's go. [Girl 1 snatches up the basket and pushes her hair out of her face in a huff, shooting Toph one last glare before whirling to stomp off. On a sharp sound of irritation the other two follow, stomping.]

[snotbending.livejournal.com]

Teaches you to mess with me!

[Toph huffs, crossing her arms. Serves them right, interrupting her important sand-bonding time.]

[wrnpcs]

[One of the last girls following turns and stomps bravely forward a few steps. She grabs up sand from the ground and chucks it at Toph but it only lands at chest level. She shrieks then turns with tail between her legs, chasing after her two friends.]

[snotbending.livejournal.com]

[Toph sighs. When the girls gets a few paces away after turning and fleeing, a block of sand comes up near her foot. Let's see her not trip.]

[Katara had been playing in the water just before the girls came to terrorize Toph. The waterbender returned to her friend moments after the gaggle of girls' departure.]

Having fun?

[snotbending.livejournal.com]

[Toph crosses her arms over her chest.]

They deserved everything I gave them.

[watertides.livejournal.com]

[Katara shoots Toph a perplexed look, but then realizes her friend can't see her expression.]

What are you talking about?

[snotbending.livejournal.com]

Those stupid blah girls! Picking on me cause I was here first. They called me a freak.

[She kicked the sand. Ooo, she was angry.]

[watertides.livejournal.com]

[Her eyes narrow, and she whips her head around, trying to find the girls.]

How many of them were there?

[snotbending.livejournal.com]

Three of them.

[She plops herself down on the sand, leaning back on her hands.]

They're just blah.

[watertides.livejournal.com]

Three girls...?

[Frowns.]

Did they have horribly screechy voices?
