Day 252 [video | open][action | baseball mingle]
[The video starts with Yuuri playing on a recorder. He's no Mozart (who is widely known for his recorder-playing skills) but he's not painful to listen to at least. After just a moment, he stops and smiles out at the people. (That's you.)]

Hi! I just wanted to get your attention and there's music stuff everywhere, so that was easy. Anyway, I thought instead of just having practice today we could have a game. I know we've lost some players and it's short notice, but I thought it might be fun. [And they could all use some fun and something to take their minds off attacks so...BASEBALL!] So, come play if you want to play even if you haven't been on a team before and come watch if you want to watch. I'll bring some snacks. You should probably bring some snacks too since I don't know what everyone likes. About two hours? See you there!

[In two hours the baseball field will be ready for a game. There's a table for snacks. Nothing too elaborate—punch, water, pretzels, cracker jacks of course. Sadly, no hot dogs unless you brought your own. People are welcome to join a team for the day or sign up to stay on one! They'll also find lots of musical instruments because it's just one of those days. Nothing like a stand full of people with cymbals?]

(OOC: We aren't really going to play out a full baseball game, but feel free to respond to Yuuri's video broadcast here or tag yourself in to a mingle which can be before, after, or during the game. RNG says The Flying Knights will win this time!)

	[She's off and running for home, making it easily before the outfielders manage to get that one. Now it's just a matter of seeing how far Haruka can take it so they can finish that conversation.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ Haruka is right behind you, Kitty. She didn't spend her whole childhood hopping from one sport to another for nothing - she excelled at each of them. (This actually bothered her. The jerk.)

Getting back to home plate looks a bit dicey, but Haruka puts on a burst of speed and manages. She's still jogging more than walking by the time she ambles back up to Kitty, with the shadow of a boyish smile on her face. Running is fun. ]

You were saying?

	Something about walnuts I think. [They were not talking about walnuts, but she is also not giving anyone the satisfaction of a pat on the back. Or a slap on the ass if that is more theme appropriate for baseball. Still, there's a look. Job well done there.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Haruka is a two-trick pony. She owns at sports and looks good in a suit. The reply cracks her up, though. She glances at the scoreboard - now two points more in their favor, thanks to her and Kitty - then back to her teammate. ] Interesting topic. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Those are pretty good tricks.] Naturally. People go nuts for my topics. [That was awful.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	actsmagnificent 2014-01-23 03:10 am UTC (link)
	I can see why. [ Far be it from her to try to match that pun. Haruka fetches a water bottle from a duffel bag she'd brought along, then on second thought pulls out another and tosses it Kitty's way. Better stay hydrated before they run around even more. ] Here. We'll be fielding soon. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She catches it smoothly and nods a bit at the explanation.] Thanks. You play sports back home? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	actsmagnificent 2014-01-26 06:38 pm UTC (link)
	On and off. [ She sips from her bottle. ] My passion's motor sports, but.... [ A shrug. It's kind of hard to race without vehicles or room for a circuit. To say nothing of the whole soldier thing, which takes priority. ] What about you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-01-28 04:15 am UTC (link)
	Never really had time for it. [Worlds to try and keep from crumbling.] Sometimes though. The odd game of something to relieve the stress. Baseball was a popular pick. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	actsmagnificent 2014-01-29 03:02 pm UTC (link)
	[ Funny how the one thing they have the most in common is also the one thing Haruka doesn't really talk about. ] You must have had quite the group. [ A team sport implies a social circle, after all. (Unlike Haruka, who tended towards solo sports.) ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mm, [You know, the kind of "Mm" that is full of agreement.] the X-Men. My team. My family. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	actsmagnificent 2014-01-31 02:58 pm UTC (link)
	[ Haruka is familiar with those kinds of "Mms". She nods slowly, approvingly. ] Good for you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-02-01 01:04 am UTC (link)
	They aren't here now. [Unless you count her other self.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	actsmagnificent 2014-02-01 04:57 pm UTC (link)
	Isn't that relieving, in its own way? [ This shoulder twitch might be a shrug. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-02-01 08:31 pm UTC (link)
	Not so much. [Maybe if they weren't all being "reset."] But whatever works for other people I guess. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	actsmagnificent 2014-02-02 01:47 am UTC (link)
	Yeah. [ Every world's got its own ups and downs. So, it turns out, do baseball games: it's time to head out to the field. Haruka takes another drink from her water bottle before tossing it back into her bag and tipping her baseball cap at Kitty. ] I'd bet you've found your place here too, however. Later? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2014-02-02 04:41 pm UTC (link)
	You'd win that bet. [The Defense force, Reid, her friends. Yeah, she has something worth protecting and keeping here.] Now let's keeps beating them. [Later it is! She goes to take her position.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	actsmagnificent 2014-02-02 06:59 pm UTC (link)
	[ Haruka grins and trots out to the field too. Far as she's concerned, the opposing team doesn't stand a chance. ] (Reply to this) (Parent)
