294 // beach mingle
[ Camping out on the beach is fun, right? Sleeping under the stars, lulled to sleep by the lapping of the waves and the rustling in the palm fronds. This isn't a refugee camp, this is a resort!

Several larger tents have been prepared on the beach. If this isn't enough there's a bunch of smaller ones ready to be set up, along with the permanent beach huts if tents aren't your thing. The makings of hot dogs and s'mores are available by the fire pits and if you have additional dietary desires, the convenience store isn't far away!

Enjoy! ]

(( ooc: Event information HERE! Please remember that if your character does not spend the night on the beach, they'll be forced to camp out on a park bench or in a coffee shop. The apartment buildings are off limits until next dayweek. ))

	Goals...? [ He twirls the frisbee in his hands thoughtfully. ] Perhaps. But they aren't important to me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	friendly_fire 2014-11-03 05:26 am UTC (link)
	Then they would be someone else's goals? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-11-03 05:27 am UTC (link)
	Yes. The goals of the organization for whom my knowledge is used. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	friendly_fire 2014-11-03 05:31 am UTC (link)
	What sort of organization is it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-11-03 05:33 am UTC (link)
	What do you mean "what sort"? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	friendly_fire 2014-11-03 05:34 am UTC (link)
	Well, there are many kinds of organizations. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	All I know is that they produce and sell Gaia Memories. Any other information is irrelevant to my work. [ He looks a little disturbed, though. People just keep asking him things he can't answer. He's never been unable to answer anything before. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	friendly_fire 2014-11-03 05:41 am UTC (link)
	[It's the look that keeps her from biting back the next question that comes to mind.] I seem to be interrogating you. That's not a very welcoming of me. If you're not interested in frisbee [despite holding it as you are] maybe you'd enjoy chess? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-11-03 05:43 am UTC (link)
	Chess...? [ He thinks. He heard of it once, when he was looking up the data for the Queen Memory. ] That's a game of sorts too, isn't it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	friendly_fire 2014-11-03 05:46 am UTC (link)
	Yes, but it is one of strategy. [She adjusts the board.] It's less physical. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-11-03 05:51 am UTC (link)
	[ He drops the frisbee and eyes the board curiously. With his brain, he wouldn't have any problem learning to play a game like chess. Although... ] It's still a distraction. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	friendly_fire 2014-11-03 05:23 pm UTC (link)
	If you can't do your work here wouldn't a distraction be welcome? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-11-03 09:24 pm UTC (link)
	Why would a distraction ever be welcome? [ ...it is tempting though. He picks up one of the pieces and looks it over. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	friendly_fire 2014-11-04 03:18 am UTC (link)
	I suppose sometimes you can work on a problem and get to a point where there's nothing else you can do for it at least for the moment and if you keep your mind on it, you'll just be frustrating and stressing yourself, so it might be best to think about something else for awhile. It might even help clear you mind for solving the original problem. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-11-04 04:22 am UTC (link)
	[ His expression makes it clear that he's never considered anything like that. The truth is... He's not getting anything done now. So perhaps it wouldn't hurt to take her up on her offer. Worst case scenario, he just wastes time that he would have wasted anyway. ] Very well. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	friendly_fire 2014-11-07 04:47 am UTC (link)
	[She smiles, pleased he's chosen to give it a try.] It sounded like maybe I should go over the rules and instructions for how to play. [There's a slight question in her voice. She wants to help him along without being insulting.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-11-07 10:48 pm UTC (link)
	[ He doesn't want to admit that he can't just look up how to play, so he shrugs. ] If you feel you need a reminder. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	friendly_fire 2014-11-13 10:19 pm UTC (link)
	[She smiles softly.] Yes, that would probably be helpful. [She takes a moment to consider where to start and then begins describing the objective of the game and the pieces and what sort of moves they can make.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-11-17 03:23 am UTC (link)
	[ At least he has no trouble comprehending her explanation. The game seems simple enough, but with plenty of room for strategy. He should have no problem with it. ] I'll take white. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	friendly_fire 2014-11-23 06:41 pm UTC (link)
	[She nods.] That means you'll go first. Did you play many games when you were younger? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-11-23 09:54 pm UTC (link)
	[ He shakes his head, absently fiddling with one of his pawns as he considers the best move to make. ] That would have been unproductive. [ Finally, he moves the pawn one row forward. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	friendly_fire 2014-11-24 12:33 am UTC (link)
	Were you that productive even as a child? [He gets a smile from her as she looks at the board and moves one of her own pieces.] You almost sound like one of my brothers though even they took time to play. They considered the competition helpful I think. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-11-24 12:40 am UTC (link)
	There was no time for play. [ He says it frankly, as though it's the most obvious thing ever. He can't even imagine how games would have fit into his schedule. He examines the board before moving again. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	friendly_fire 2014-11-24 01:53 pm UTC (link)
	Even when you were very little? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-11-24 06:40 pm UTC (link)
	[ He shakes his head and moves the same pawn another step forward. ] No. What difference would that make? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
