'Tis the season for an appropriately festive meme. Behold, the
BEACH EPISODE MEME
wait no what
Characters have made it over the snow walls only to find that... there's... a beach there?
With appropriate weather and everything??
And palm trees and piles of free bathing suits and a bar that seems to have a never-ending supply of pina coladas???
There are probably little spider barmen or something
Who are we kidding there are definitely little spider barmen
WHATEVER, time to engage in beachy shenanigans! Sunbathe. Bury people in the sand. Go swimming. Build an escape raft or a sandcastle or play volleyball or ALL THESE THINGS AT ONCE WHILE SHOVING SAND DOWN YOUR FRIENDS' BATHING SUITS AND DRAWING DICKS ON THEM IN SUN LOTION
Look idk just write your own sandy-ass toplevels u nerds
[Forget everything else, there are pina coladas. TIME TO GET COMPLETELY FUCKING WASTED LIKE A RESPONSIBLE ADULT.
Jack is in fact wearing the shuttershades depicted in his icon. He is also wearing yellow swim trunks because of course they're yellow. Basically if you think he doesn't look like the dorky beach dad he is then you are wrong.]
A bathing suit with like fifteen sarongs draped over it because like hell are Team Overprotective Hyperion Douchedads going to let her do otherwise, geez. She's actually more fully covered up than usual. IT'S REALLY STUPID.
As of right now, she's sniffing dubiously at one of the spider-sponsored frilly-ass drinks at the bar. IS THERE ALCOHOL IN THIS? THERE PROBABLY IS.
But there's also a tiny umbrella and that is cute as heckie. ]

[ Angel hasn't just built a sandcastle. Those are for noobs. She's built a sand fortress, and has now declared herself queen of it. FIGHT HER FOR HER TERRITORY OR COME TO PAY TRIBUTE, SCRUBS!! ]
[ Rhys has amassed a line of different drinks because he could not decide and therefore had to order all of them.
THIS WILL SURELY END WELL.
He has managed to find a pair of teal swim trunks and a matching shirt, all asymmetrically pinstriped because someone out there cares about his motif. Feel free to notice the blue tattoos running down one side of his body because this is a meme and I do what I want. You don't own me, Telltale. ]

[ Have you fallen asleep while sunbathing? Perhaps had one drink too many?
Because if you have, you are getting buried in sand by a tipsy cyborg. Sorry, not sorry. ]
[Screw everything, she's running around in her underwear drinking and just enjoying the wonderful place they just found. Too good to be true? Maybe! But she's enjoying it as long as it lasts!] I'm so not going back to snowhell.

[Rydia walked away from the group and found a place where to stay alone for a moment. Why? Well...] Father? Father, can you hear me? [Because even if she's probably alreay considered a bit 'off' there's no need to let everyone see her yell to the sea. With Leviathan being her father and the Worlds-crossing lord of oceans the summoner thought it was worth trying to contact him.] Come on... Why aren't you replying?

[Rydia spent almost a whole hour staring at the palm trees, studying them and chopping small pieces of their trunks. It's with a wide grin she returns to the others, the summoner seems quite satisfied with the things she found and...] Those palms are perfect! If only Luca was here... anyway, does anyone know or think it's possible to build any kind of vessel here? The palms are rich with oils and... If we have any way to build even a basic engine of sort, maybe combining all our efforts, we may be able to travel even further. [In her world vessels are powered with palm oil, from her point of view you're all surrounded by fuel, deal with it.]
[Zell has acquired the BEST SWIM TRUNKS and can be found swimming. He may splash any approaching friends or try to drag them in the water with him.]
C'mon on! This is frickin great! BOOYAH!
2.
[Now dripping wet and relaxing on the beach by digging around for something i the sand. He had his back to the water, with the waves rolling up to his toe. Take the opportunity to get him or see what he's looking for?
If left to his devices, he'll eventually hold something in his hand with a triumph smile.] FOUND ONE! [It's a little hermit crab.]
[ Angel has indeed fallen asleep under a palm tree while watching the sea. She's having a pretty neato dream about digging her way through the sand only to find a whole bunch of robots under there to hang out with. IT'S GREAT.
Until she wakes up and god frickindammit Rhys god fRICKING DAMMIT GOD ]
[Steve has acquired patriotic swim trunks because of course he has, and makes a beeline for the water because GOD HE IS DISGUSTING HE NEEDS TO BE CLEAN and also I mean swimming is nice.
He totally splashes Zell as he rushes headlong into the waves, but he didn't really mean to. Probably. He surfaces after a few moments, shaking his head like a wet dog.]
1. [Steve headed straight for the water in his brand-new swim trunks. He will stay there until he feels clean again, which means he probably won't come out until he's a prune. You will find him floating on his back with his eyes closed.]
Is it possible to just live in the ocean, I think I'd like to live in the ocean now.
2. [At some point it will occur to Steve that a) he is still lacking his super-serum and b) he is in the presence of copious amounts of alcohol, and that this means that c) HE CAN GET DRUNK FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MANY MANY DECADES. He is at the bar, sucking down a piña colada fast enough to give himself brain-freeze and snapping his fingers at the spiders.]
Keep 'em coming, robot spider barman, I want at least two more of these.
3. [A probably quite drunk Steve is now sprawled like a starfish in the sand with his eyes closed and a huge smile on his face. He is warm. It feels amazing. He is so, so happy.]
I love this beach. I love this sand. I am never, ever leaving.
[If he sounds overly-emotional about all of this, I would like to remind you: he is very drunk.]
[Okay, Stein's always up for some beach adventures, especially after snowhell. He's got some massive amounts of sunscreen, a comfortable chair, and big fancy glass with a little paper umbrella. He's shirtless, and his swim trunks are a stitched-together patchwork of grey fabric (like... everything else he has).]
B
[Did someone say volleyball? Stein is so up for volleyball right now. He's also almost six and a half feet tall, solid muscle, has decades of shonen fighting experience, and is very good at volleyball. Hopefully, he's on your team.]
C - dissection warning [Somehow, Stein has found, and caught, a small shark. He also has a knife. Do I even need to explain what's happening here?]
If you're super worried about me bleeding from every orifice, though, I'm sure the spiders would make you a virgin drink. Probably would taste better too.
