[b]Los Paraisos: Beach[/b]
Syed's smile faded very quickly as Lucien spoke. Well, that explained why he had two surfboards. He thought he'd be trying something stupid with them, like putting one foot on each or something.

This felt worse. His eyes longingly drifted to the ocean before them. How nice would it be to just go out there and swim? Swim and swim and swim and not stop until he couldn't see land anymore? He was a pretty strong swimmer despite his appearance, he could go for a while probably. Just him on his own. Nobody else. Just him against the world.

He then looked back to Lucien, his expression upset. Somehow, as well intentioned Lucien's suggestion was, that hit him hard. He [i]wanted[/i] to go out and surf with him, even though he had never surfed before and would probably end up knocking his teeth out on the board. He wanted to go out there and just laugh and act like a prat and do what he wanted rather than needing a second opinion on absolutely everything. It hurt.

Except...

[i]"I mean, that would be a shocking experience. Heheheheh... Though it would probably hurt me, so I just want to make sure."[/i]

Syed stared at him numbly for a second. Wh... what? Then finally, a funny noise came up from the back of his throat. Followed closely by a horrific snorting laugh as he gave in.

"Pffffffhahahahahahahahahaha what?!" he spluttered. Oh man, that was one hell of a mood whiplash, although it was would be a little unfair to Lucien to bring the mood down telling him as such. "...Shocking experiance, oh my word..." he laughed a little more, a large grin spreading across his face. "That was a good one! Geez, hahahahahahaha! You're great with jokes."

He hugged himself a little uncomfortably, although he couldn't help himself from smiling. He felt better already. "I... can't go surfing with you though. I'm stuck with Moira, remember? She can't swim." His smile widened to a particularly dorky smirk though. "I guess I can [i]enlighten[/i] you on the electricity thing though." He chucked at his own terrible pun. "What is it with everyone asking me that today? Anyway, yeah, water does conduct my electricity better than air, but I'll need to conciously cast to produce anything you'd notice. So I won't be zapping anybody. Even if I did cast I-!"

"SHUT YOUR FACE!!!" Moira bellowed, headbutting him in the back and sending him flying to the floor in a cloud of sand. "NOBODY GIVES A SHIT!" She glowered over him as he writhed in pain on the sand, a drink gripped in each hand. "Now get your ass up, they're waitin' on us. You comin'?" She added to Aria.

He gave her one hell of a glare as he began to heave himself back up. Ow ow ow ow-!

"Woah, check out some of the chicks here today!"

A group of six men had just arrived at the entrance of the beach, looking across the pale sands. A couple of them, including the one who had just spoken, was looking directly towards where Selan and Amy were. They were all shirtless, muscular and toned, and looked like they had been at the baby oil before they came out. These were men aiming to impress.

They sauntered across the beach as if they owned the place, before pushing two large poles deep into the sand. One of them began to draw the lines of a court around the poles, giving Selan a cheeky wink as he did so. Another began to tie a net into place. Those with nothing to do just did a couple of stretches.

A volleyball court. Soon enough they split into two groups of three, and began to play against each other. In the loosest sense of course, as they seemed to be having a little difficulty keeping their eyes off the assets of the women relaxing nearby and on the ball. The way many of the others on the beach acted made it look like this was a regular occurance.

Moira sneered. "Look at them fuckers..." she spat as she walked next to Amy and handed her a glass. Syed walked a little gingerly behind her, wincing slightly. "Keep yer eyes on the ball!"
