Suddenly, a garish-looking young man bursts into the pool area, out of breath and looking frazzled.

"Sorry I'm late! I was asleep!"

Ahh, my apologies, I should've woken you up. I'm Scarlet. Your main host is currently busy.

[MadameButterflyKnife]

Ivi sees Cass cannonball in, and immediately follows. "CANNONBALL CONTEST!"

[Despair's Archon of Memes]

Cirno jumps into the pool... Only to immediately be frozen in an ice cube.

Again? Wow. I gotta do this more often!

[psychedelicate]

"'Salright. Nice to meetcha! I'm Kazuichi Souda! If you need me to fix anything, let me know! I can fix anything, from toys to smartphones to cars!"

[LavenderDream]

"'Salright. Nice to meetcha! I'm Kazuichi Souda! If you need me to fix anything, let me know! I can fix anything, from toys to smartphones to cars!"

Kazuichi Souda ehh? What an interesting name for someone with an interesting life I assume. It would be sad if that life was taken.

[Kennifer]

"I'll um, I'll keep that in mind if the portable sewing machine I brought breaks."

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

The mention of cars from Kazuichi definitely caught Lance's attention as he headed towards him. Cars, huh? Sounds like you could definitely be a huge help for me.

[wingedcatgirl]

Hitomi, who has still not actually introduced herself to anyone, is now lurking at the pool area with the rest of the group.

Catgirl at the pool, what will she do.

[psychedelicate]

"U-uhh!?"

But before Kazuichi can dwell on that, Lance approaches him.

"R-right! So... what can I do for ya?"

[PointMaid]

Frankie lets a breath out as only Cirno seems to be frozen this time. Cool. I fix things, but usually just software! Or hardware.

[MadameButterflyKnife]

Ivi swims up to Hitomi. "Hey! You wanna join in?! Don't worry, this water isn't contaminated, I checked!"

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Well, you see, brother, I'm involved in some activity back in Vice City. Some stuff that cops like to sniff their noses at, ya feel me? Maybe you could paint these cars and get me some new plates, so I can get the cops off me, ya dig? I can make you pretty wealthy too, Lance finishes off the sentences as he pulls out several hundred dollar bills and waves them around in front of Kazuichi.

[Zanreo]

"Well, guess I'll know who to ask if any of my Gizmondos break... not that they'll break too easily, of course!"

[Oggy123]

The Lemmings collectively laugh at Cirno.
"Ehehehe! Hehehe."

[psychedelicate]

Kazuichi looks... horrified, to say the least.

"Wh-what!? Y-you want me to break the law!? I-I can't do that! Not even if you pay me a billion yen!"

[Kennifer]

Tonya is now... trying not to get too close to the ice cube.

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Man, do you think the law matters around here all that much? You got these crooked cops who bend the rules to get what they want. What's the difference? Just tryin' to look after number 1. And maybe if you were that smart, you'd be doin' the same thing so you can live easy. And maybe you'd get that too if you're not as stupid as you look, So just go along with it, do yourself a favor because it would be real lucrative. Get what I'm sayin?

[Dookie]

Cass now does the famous “walking backwards into the pool” motion, and falls in once again.

[psychedelicate]

"Hey! You're stupid for expectin' me to go along with somethin' like this! If that's how you're gonna be, then I don't wanna do any business with you!"

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Right, I'm stupid. I got all kinds of connections in Vice City, ya know! I could have gotten you anything you wanted if you worked for me; women, drugs, whatever you wanted. And I could just as easily put a hit out on you too. So don't mess with me, because you just blew a big opportunity!, Lance shouts right before going back to his beach chair and sitting back down.

Dumb motherfucker... he mutters to himself.

[Kennifer]

"I um... thought this was s...supposed to be fun, and..."

...Tonya is clearly uncomfortable with the arguing.

[Dookie]

Next, she throws a chair into the pool, and then jumps on the chair. Can it float?

Nope.

[psychedelicate]

Kazuichi storms off in a huff.

[artsyGeek]

[. .Wendy is looking at the commotion from afar.]

". .wait, uh. .do you guys mind if I take a photo or something? Assuming we can, that is."

[wingedcatgirl]

Ivi swims up to Hitomi. "Hey! You wanna join in?! Don't worry, this water isn't contaminated, I checked!"

"... Eh, sure, why not," Hitomi says, and jumps right into the pool.
