Summary; Sam hosts a beach party for anyone who wants to come
Log;

Sam had tried to do everything he could to make the beach trip as fun as possible, especially considering all that had happened recently. Not everyone had calmed down after yesterday, but it was enough that he didn't cancel the trip.

He had volleyball set up, a dozen umbrellas for the more fair skinned to take refuge under, and a really ugly couch to put in a bonfire later.

Food and drink also abounded, including enough electrolyte replenishing drinks to help anyone who drank all the alcohol he brought stave off too massive of a hangover. All in all, it was a recipe for a good time. Or at least Sam hoped.

She blinks a few times, looking at Penny. Was she really asking Arkady for advise?

"Ask... them? I ask for things when I need them."

"And we need to not have the deities treating us the way they do," she replies. Her enthusiasm wavers. "...Or maybe it's better not to bother them. They get irritated pretty easily."

"That's not good."

She takes another swig, feeling pleasantly mellow. Perhaps she'll go back to looking for the others.

"But if there's a lot of people, isn't it hard to be angry at all of them?"

Penny shrugs, sort of wishing she could be as calm and detached as Arkady seems. "The deities seem to do the being-angry-at-everyone thing okay... but that's too serious. Who wants to talk about angry god-people at a beach party?"

"Oh." She offers the bottle again. "Drinking, then?"

"No, but thank you," Penny declines. "Drinking definitely beats out angry gods, but showing up at work with a hangover wouldn't be too great."

She considers for a moment, then takes another drink. "I don't work."

"Then nothing to worry about there! Do you get money from the City?"
