BEACH EPISODE BEACH EPISODE
⭐ Who: Everybody's invited!
⭐ When: Beginning of August
⭐ Where: Facet Lagoon
⭐ What: Beach party in the Dream Sphere!
⭐ Warnings: Old guys in skimpy bathing suits. (シ;゚Д゚)シ

While wind and rain hammer Yumemigaoka, the weather in the Dream Sphere is perfect for a beach party!
At Facet Lagoon, the sun is shining, the gemstone sands are sparkling, and a pleasant tropical breeze rustles through the emerald palm trees. Umbrellas in a rainbow of colors line the beach, providing welcome shade. Farther back from the shore, tables laden with food and flowers offer familiar summer treats - shaved ice, watermelon, grilled meat, cold noodles, icy drinks, exotic fruits, and soft-serve ice cream.
The beach is generally safe, but aquatic Torments lurk in the lagoon's depths, so make sure you don't swim too far out!
But wait, I didn't bring my swimsuit! Oops, neither did anyone else! You'll just have to improvise! Take off those stuffy petticoats, mod your Dreamer outfit, make a bra out of coconuts if you're feeling crafty, or get Ango to make you an awful swimsuit with his ninja cosplay magic.
Never seen an anime beach episode before? Here are some ideas!

⭐ Watermelon Smash
⭐ Just Lounging Around
⭐ Beach Volleyball

⭐ Sandcastle Competition
Wherever there's a beach, some kid has dug a massive hole in the sand. Use that pretty gemstone-studded sand to create your ultimate dream palace! The best part is knocking them all down at the end.
⭐ Watermelon Smash
The Japanese version of the piñata game. Players take turn wearing a blindfold and attempt to break open a watermelon using a stick. Whoever manages to break it is the winner! Using weapons and powers is highly encouraged, but try not to completely destroy the watermelon.
⭐ Just Lounging Around
Not interested in splashing or smashing? Soak up that summer sun, or relax under an umbrella with a cold drink and a trashy romance novel.
⭐ Beach Volleyball
Will it be a friendly game or an intense life-and-death sports battle? It's okay if you don't know the rules - just use Dreamer magic to cheat!
⭐ Cave Exploring
The cliffs around Facet Lagoon are honeycombed with caves, both above and below the water. A mysterious glow provides enough light to explore by, but who knows what creatures hide in the shadows?
⭐ Bonfire
As the sun begins to dip towards the horizon, someone makes a pile of driftwood and sets it alight. It's a great time to tell scary stories, or perform your favorite song, or roast marshmallows.
exploring
Oh, really? I'd love to—eh... EHHH!??
[ A-AI-DOLL!? HOSHINO AI!? IN THE FLESH!? Hibiki may have just devolved into a complete stammering mess right in front of Ai, yknow, as you do when you're suddenly face-to-face with Hoshino Ai in a swimsuit. Though speaking of swimsuits, Hibiki herself has managed to work herself in a pretty cute swimsuit herself. Is it some kind of singer-specific ability? ]
no subject
Heehee, did I catch you off guard?
no subject
[ Fortunately, Hibiki can at least manage to calm herself down a little. Sure, she's meeting one of her favorite idols in person, but it's not the first time she's done that! Though weirdly it was easier with Kanade-san... ]
U-Um!! I'm Hibi—uh, I mean! I'm Gungnir Dreamer! I mean, Dreamer Gungnir! A-Ahaha...
[ ...okay, so she hasn't calmed down that much... but at least she's forming sentences! ]
no subject
You were the one who got saved by the last Gungnir, right? It's sweet of you to take on that name, too.
[ She absolutely would not have remembered that unprompted nor would she be able to get into any of the details if pressed, but it feels nice when someone seems to remember you, doesn't it? ]
no subject
[ Hibiki's cheeks flush a little as she starts to rub the back of her head. Ai just complimented her... is she dreaming? Actually, technically yes since they're in the Dream Sphere, but still! ]
Ehehe... I looked up to Kana—er, the other Gungnir a lot! So when I became a Dreamer myself, I suddenly ended up going by the same name!
[ She admittedly does feel a little embarrassed about it, since that means she's got a lot to live up to in that name, but she doesn't regret it either. So hearing Ai of all people say it's sweet of her... well, it makes her happy! No other way to put it! ]
no subject
Giving yourself a goal like that to work towards is a good idea. [ That must be what Hibiki's aiming for, right? Why else would you take on the name of a Dreamer who'd left such deep impressions on your heart? ] And if it's someone you really admire, that gives you all the motivation you need to work towards it.
[ It's a nice sounding platitude, at least. ]
I'll be cheering for you while you work on getting there.
no subject
Ah, thank you so much, Ai-doll-san!
[ Hoshino Ai herself has given Hibiki her support... Hibiki will treasure this moment for the rest of her life, she thinks. ]
O-Oh, right! U-Um, I'd love to keep exploring with you! If you don't mind!
[ That was her question... and what kind of fan would she be if she turned down a chance to explore somewhere in the dreamsphere with Ai? ]
no subject
[ And, just going off this girl's overall vibes, hearing this would probably make her entire day. ]
Have you managed to look around any of the other caves yet?
no subject
A-Ah! Right!!
[ They’re teammates!! Aah, being a Dreamer really is the best… she gets to be close to idols!! If Miku ever becomes a Dreamer, she’ll have to introduce her right away… ]
Oh, right! I’ve looked around a little, but I basically just got here. I figured that if anything dangerous were around, it’d be in the caves, so I figured I’d try and deal with them so everyone else can relax.
no subject
[ Of course, that would usually be the designated driver, but Hibiki's probably a little young for a goof like that. Ai turns away from her so she can point down the cave and into the dark – there's just enough reflections of light bouncing down the tunnel for the slight turn to be visible but beyond that is pure darkness. ]
It might be a little scary since there won't be as much light, but I'd like to see how deep this tunnel goes and if there's anything lurking.
no subject
Someone to remove heads from shoulders, too, if the future event of Hibiki clocking Hanako in the head is any indication.]Ooh, good idea! Then, I’ll head in first to scope it out!
[ Hibiki evidently isn’t too scared of the lack of light, so she readily offers to be in front and bear the brunt of whatever they find down there, if they find anything at all. ]
no subject
[ With a flicker of sparkling light, Ai summons her Sandglass – one part pretty mahou scepter, one part handheld mic. She sings a low, sweet note into the star at the top of the rod and it begins to emit a faint glow – just enough for them to see by as they make their way deeper into the cavern. ]
There we go. It's better than nothing, at least.
