"Nothing much.... Just got stuck with Mr. Cranky as my roommate....." Yang answered calmly. "You?"
Todd calmly sipped from the can of Dew as a kinda chubby female came up to the group.

"Ah, y'know," Mickey chuckled. "Traveling around, screwing around, partying around. Everything's good in the hood." Mickey's ears perked up at the new arrival.
"Nyeh..." Cat playfully splashed some water right back at Paul. "I had to act quick. How could I resist a challenge?" She paddled over to the trampoline and started climbing on. "So, you like my Pool Party Pack, do ya?"

"Depends on what you mean by 'screwing around,' as you so eloquently put it," Rio muttered. "If your vague response includes the raptor incident, then no, not everything's 'good in the hood.'" His flat tone lightened when he noticed the new girl coming over to them. "Oh. Good e'en."
"Are you kidding? This is amazing!" Paul replied as he swam back onto the metallic surface to try out another slide. "So this is all part of a single device? Everything's connected?"

Todd looked over. "Okay who messed with the mirror pool?" he asked.
"My thought exactly...." the girl replied with a more feminine version of Todd's voice. "So.... I brought Graham Crackers and chocolate...."
"Welcome to the bonfire. The blondie is my roommate," Todd pointed to Yang. "Don't mess with her."
The new girl nodded. "I'm Beth by the way. I live across the hall from you," she offered.
Yang chuckled at Mickey's statement. "Raptors? What were you trying to do recreate Jurrasic Park?"

"It's a... long story that I think would be best left as a Noodle Incident," Mickey responded awkwardly. He drank some beer and regained his composure. "I feel like this party is missing something..."
"Yep. This is all part of my travel-sized package for some seaside fun!" Cat answered as she began bouncing on the trampoline. "Built it all myself, thank you very much. Cat Cackowski, master inventor and Pandemonium Warrior!"

Rio raised an eyebrow, properly confused seeing as how he didn't know what Jurassic Park was. Or a Noodle Incident, for that matter. So he let it slide and instead smiled at Beth. "Pleasure to meet you. I'm Riordan. This is Mickey."
"Paul. Technician... but I don't really build stuff, I just fix it," Paul snickered. "You have some wicked talent, if I do say so myself! Too bad no one else is getting in on it."

"Tunes. We're missing tunes!!" Yang answered with a grin.
Todd sighed. "Any one got a boom box or anything?" he asked.
"You have a viola case. You can play music," Beth quipped.

Mickey snapped his fingers and pointed at Yang in agreement. "Right on. And if that gets too boring, I parked Vanessa a little ways away. We can grab our radio."
"Tell me about it. It's not as fun with just two!" Cat shot a thoughtful gaze at the beach, never slowing in her bounce. "We need to get some others out here somehow..."

"Mickey..." Rio scolded the raccoon for his rude comment. He then smiled at Yang, Todd and Beth. "Viola music would be wonderful. If you want to perform, anyway."
"Yeah..." Following suit, Paul grinned deviously at the people on the beach, at least up until he slipped down the slide he had climbed on. After landing in the water and swimming to the surface, he asked, "Know anyone over there?"

"I'd like something other than funeral music!" Yang shouted.
Beth rolled her eyes. "Got anything Sterling like?" she asked.
"Yes that I do," Todd replied as he took out a purple viola and bow. "I know Roundtable Rivals by heart." The young man smirked as his bow hit the strings and the song started.

After that performance, even the persistently stubborn Mickey had to let out an impressed whistle. "Very nice, Paganini."
"The mage and the raccoon are with me," Cat answered. "Now... that other guy is playing violin or something. If it's tunes they want..." Halfway through her thinking process, Cat interrupted herself by bouncing off the trampoline and into the lake.

"Well done! Very well done!" Rio applauded. "Hmm... Perhaps you would be interested in a duet?" he offered, casting a conjuration spell that summoned his mandolin into his hands.
"Then... tunes they'll get?" Paul finished with a laugh. "Can we even bring music out here?"

"Sure. Haven't seen many mandolin players or even played with them," Todd offered.
Beth sighed. "I wish I could play an instrument," she calmly added.
Yang rolled her eyes and started to head out to the PPP 2.0. "Mind another joining you two?" she called to the duo.

"Aw, geez, Rio," Mickey groaned. "Not the stupid mandolin aga- And now you're driving away the ladies! That's wonderful!"
For a moment, Cat was stumped that someone had just shown up to join them after all that talk of getting people to do so. But that shock only last for about three and a half seconds before the energy kicked back in. "Sure! Join the party!"

Rio frowned at Mickey, not that the latter's complaints about the mandolin were anything new. As far as Rio was concerned, Yang could do what she wanted, as could the others, himself included. Without a word to his companion, he did a quick tune-up before playing and asked Todd, "You know Dropkick Murphys?"
"Yeah, totally!" Paul agreed with Cat, cheerfully elbowing her as if to say that hey, they didn't need to drag people over to get some more use out of her invention! He then swam back over to the metal surface and climbed aboard, taking a moment to decide what he should try next. "We've got all day and all night to put this thing to good use."
