[Day 216] [BASEBALL - mingle]
[PLAY BALL!

Or cheerlead.

Or watch.

Or heckle.

It's an event everyone can enjoy!

There are some traditional snacks on hand. No alcohol sadly, but you can still have soda, hot dogs, and popcorn among other things. The bleachers provide enough seating for those who want to see exactly how vampires, humans, demons, mutants, etc. all play together. Not to mention some of them only recently even learned what baseball was. Never a dull moment at least.

In the end, it's the Flying Knights who win in this fairly evenly matched game, but there was some impressive action for both teams It should be an interesting season.]

(OOC: MINGLE! This is event style! Just put in your header whether your character is in the crowd, the purple dragons, the flying knights, cheerleading, before the game, or after the game or any combination! Please assume there was adequate IC announcement of this event!

Backdated to earlier in the day. Roster. It is not yet updated with recent additions from the last Yuuri post.)

[Flying Knights| Before, During, After]

[So he hadn't actually had that much time to train before their first game, but Dick loves a challenge. Baseball isn't as hard as he had thought it would be. The rules are pretty simple and he's agile enough that he can jump and catch balls coming his way in the air despite his height. He's going to be looking around and stretching before the game starts, but during it, he'll be pretty focused. Dick loves a good game and it's even better when his team is winning.

And after the game he'll be laying out in the grass with a satisfied smile because they won. Feel free to come bother him or he might decide to just get up and congratulate his other teammates.]

	[Have to say he's happy to compete against his double, and he was happy to heckle him during batting rounds and challenging his calls. Course as far as he saw it it was all in good fun and he was just enjoying the game. It's Dick's turn up to bat, Duo tilts his head to the kid.] Break a leg or two, hey?

	[Dick sadly doesn't get to kick his own double's behind at this game, but he's going to enjoy winning anyway. He grins at the guy and laughs.] Don't they only say that for acting? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's a catch all. Just don't strike out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lethimeatrats 2013-05-07 05:02 pm UTC (link)
	[Dick snorts and hefts his bat easily.] As if that'll happen. [And he proceeds to make it up to the plate. He doesn't strike out, but he's does only make it to second base. While eyeing third like he's ready to steal it.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[And he's up to bat next, he hits the ball on the third, sending it into left field, meanwhile he's bolting for the first plate, and has to slide to get it.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lethimeatrats 2013-05-07 05:16 pm UTC (link)
	[He hits it into left field, but close enough to third that Dick runs back to send instead of getting tagged out. Crap. He eyes the guy who batter after him.] You better put those long legs to use! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	stillshinigami 2013-05-07 05:18 pm UTC (link)
	[Stands at first and dusts himself off] No problem there! [He's just hoping he doesn't strike himself out.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lethimeatrats 2013-05-07 05:32 pm UTC (link)
	So you say! [The next batter is up and Dick is just waiting for the okay to run. He doesn't want to end up with three batters on plate. He wants to get home. There's the pitch... It's a high right fielder! Dick runs.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He runs as well, catching up to second base once the ball is caught, he's trying for third.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Dick makes it passed third and see the ball is coming his way, picking up speed and ready to push right on into home base. There is no way he's going to get stuck. He gets passed the halfway mark and dives, dirt getting into his face, clothes scraping against the ground. And he makes it!

He jumps up quickly and throws his hands up into the air.] Whoo! That was fun.

	[Dick wipes some of the dust off and then goes to back to the bench, but doesn't take a seat. He's too pumped up.] Come on! You're so close! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	stillshinigami 2013-05-08 03:30 am UTC (link)
	[And he's running, sliding! Hooo----- Craaap! He's got tagged out by his double of all people. Almost had it!] Damn... Where'd you even come from? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lethimeatrats 2013-05-08 03:38 am UTC (link)
	[Dick is not amused.] Oh man, come on! [He smacks a hand against his head.] That was a crummy call. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	stillshinigami 2013-05-08 03:43 am UTC (link)
	[He climbs to his feet and brushes himself off. Giving his double a wry look, then a competitive one. As far as he's concerned, the next inning he'll be getting his revenge!] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lethimeatrats 2013-05-08 03:48 am UTC (link)
	[Dick sighs and plops down on the bench with what is most definitely not a pout. They're going to lose their lead at this rate.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	stillshinigami 2013-05-08 03:50 am UTC (link)
	[He returns to the dugout and joins Dick on the bench. He gives a sympathetic look. They were lucky to have Dick's run, he thought.] Good competition, wouldn't ya say? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lethimeatrats 2013-05-08 03:59 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, yeah, but we better not lose! [He likes competition, but likes it even more when he's winning.] We've got it going pretty good right now, but they could catch up if we're not careful. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	stillshinigami 2013-05-08 04:02 am UTC (link)
	I'm not about to lose just yet. Although be thankful that fighting losing battles just happens to be a specialty of mine (Reply to this) (Parent)
