[The following text message is typed fairly urgently.]

so the weathers starting to get a little cooler
its not just me noticing this, right??
that means summer is almost over (｡•́︿•̀｡)

weve gotta have a party!
a beach party!! before its too late!

you cant just let summer end without having a beach party, thats just wrong
you gotta have beach volleyball! and watermelon splitting! and swimsuits and tasty food and all the other stuff

do you think theyd let us have a beach party here? if I find a place to do it, everyone is invited!
we gotta send summer off properly! (*•̀ᴗ•́*)و ̑̑

Watermelon splitting?

[That better be as violent as it sounds.]

[ayes]

yes!! its really fun you put a watermelon on the beach and one person has a big stick or bat and they get blindfolded and everyone else calls out where for them to go and aim and they gotta take a big swing! you only get one swing b4 its someone elses turn and then afterwards everyone eats the watermelon!

What happens if you hit someone else instead of hitting the watermelon.

Strictly speaking this could get very bloody very fast.

text

[ayes]

well that would be a really bad accident! but usually everyone gives the blindfolded person plenty of space and moves out of the way so it probably wouldnt happen, thankfully!

[beatupgrass]

That takes half the fun out of watching it.

[IT'S NOT AS FUN UNLESS THERE'S A LITTLE BIT OF A RISK FOR PAIN.]

[ayes]

uhh wait are you saying you want people to be near the guy splitting the watermelon? why?? its just supposed to be a fun little game not get anyone hurt (・_・;)

text

[beatupgrass]

I'm saying you have a perfect set-up to add a little danger to the mix and you're not committing. It's totally fun! It ain't like anyone's getting their kneecaps broken.

text

[ayes]

well the fun is usually laughing and trying to confuse people and watching how badly they miss! so you want people to be surrounding the watermelon too??

text

[beatupgrass]

Right! They gotta like... duck the other guy's swings. It'll be great.

And it tests your combat reflexes or something.

[ayes]

its more of a party game than uh
combat training

[beatupgrass]

Yeah you're right. Combat training makes it sound lame.

We'll call it "risk-taking."

[ayes]

well


why dont we see who would be interested in that at the party!
and then if people really really really want to do it
we can have a separate group playing your version!

[beatupgrass]

I can accept that.

[ayes]

Great! I hope you can manage to make it! [And not kneecap anyone.]
