The sun was shining down on sugar white sand, the beautiful azure and emerald sea lapped at the shoreline like a tongue licking a melting ice cream cone and girls everywhere were being ogled through their swimsuits. Yes, it was finally summer in the Multiverse and at Meowrin's insistence the Hades Party and some of their close friends had taken the day off in order to spend time at the beach relaxing and partying together. Yes, it was partially an excuse for the more perverted among the group to stare at bodies in swimwear but the day was so beautiful and the possibility for enjoyment was so high that that almost didn't seem to matter anymore and in addition to pervy shenanigans, fun in the sun was the order of the day!
Tangelo had been trying his hardest to build a sandcastle only for the waves to keep knocking it down into formless piles of wet sand. Now he'd temporarily given it up in order to look for starfish and trying to find out if the sand really tasted like sugar instead of just looking like it. August and Dollstop had shown up with him but headed off on their own when they heard that sea-monsters monsters might have been in the area.
"PPPFFTPLAGH!! It's not sugar at all! It's salt!! buuuuut maybe some of it is sugar over here..." The half-demon child stared at a patch of sand the water hadn't touched yet, weighing the chances that this next mouthful of beach would taste better.

Tachi had found a peaceful enough spot on the beach to set up for the day. Swimming had never really been her forte and even with the issue that had initially made it so troublesome resolved years ago, she wasn't particularly keen on it. Instead, she had set up a beach umbrella and towel and was about to sit down with a few books.
Of course, there was one thing about this whole situation that bugged her.
"...How the hell did I get tricked into wearing this?!" she suddenly exclaimed, looking down at the dark blue one-piece she was wearing. A typical Japanese school swimsuit, complete with her name printed on the front of it.

Meanwhile, up at the beach house the group was staying in, Jenny was sat on her bed, staring out the window with her knees drawn up to her chest. She was wearing a pale blue short-sleeved hooded sweatshirt and a short white skirt, and a pair of trainers over her bare feet. On the bed next to her was an almost identical school swimsuit.
Why can’t I just stay away from them all? At least then they won’t be in danger when I turn into a monster again.

"Liiiiiiitle siiiiiiis~!"
Even before the arms wrapped around her, Jenny would most likely feel two large, soft objects pressing against her back as Meowrin launched a tight hug from behind. The catgirl was currently wearing a very skimpy black bikini that her human self would've died of embarrassment if she ever wore, let alone if she was seen in public wearing it.
"No moping, little sis~" she said, nuzzling her adopted sister's hair. "We're all here to have fun, after all. Besides, it's not like this is canon or anything so just try and have fun for once, okay?"

"Hmmm? Uh..." Sometimes Meowrin forgot that others didn't share the same awareness she had as a demon. Whilst it was amusing to see how confused they'd get when she rambled on about the medium, she'd rather Jenny cheered up than simply became confused. "It just means you don't need to worry so much, silly~"
The demon cat giggled as she hugged Jenny tighter, absentmindedly pressing her large breasts against her back. "Come on, I just wanna see you smile and have fun, no matter what I have to do to make it happen, eheh~"

Ominous chuckling could be heard from the underside of two intertwined umbrellas as a lens poked out from the dark crevasse, snapping pictures of the embarrassed swimsuit girl. In the cool darkness, Grey gleefully perved out to her heart's content. "This is the opportunity of a lifetime." With a gleam in her eyes, the many jobbed girl let loose and continued her vigilant recording of curves and whatnot.

Tachi froze and quickly glanced around, that laughter couldn't mean anything good. Before she could find the source however, the brunette's attention was drawn to something a short distance away. Tangelo was...eating sand? Deciding that whatever the chuckling was about could wait, she walked over to the half-demon child.
"Um, hey Tangelo. What are you doing?" She asked.

"...And sitting around moping is the best way to do that?" Meowrin let go of her adopted sister, and sat down in front of her. She seemed oddly serious as she stroked Jenny's arm gently. "Jenny, I don't want that to happen again either. But you have to remember that the transformation was caused by despair. If you sit around by your own all depressed like this, it's not going to help at all. You really need to get out there and have some fun, little sis. Besides..."
With her superhuman attributes, it wasn't difficult at all for Meowrin to practically tear off Jenny's clothes and force her into the swimsuit.
"...I really, really want to see how cute you are in this swimsuit, little sis~!" The catgirl was back to her usual, manic self again. "I bet you'll look utterly adorable, eheheh~!"

Jenny blushed. A lot. Partly this was just because she was still a little bit shy, and partly because she'd never actually worn a swimsuit before. Although that last one was kind of understandable given her past.

"Ah... Ahahah... Eheh~" Meowrin wiped a trickle of blood from her nose. Jenny looked so cute! The swimsuit was one thing, but... Ah, she was so shy, and so adorably flustered, and... And...
...And that swimsuit really did cling to her so very, very well.
Stop it Meowrin! Her human self echoed in her mind. She's your sister! Stop that train of thought right now!
"...Not blood related, silly~" She whispered to herself, an evil gleam in her eyes as the catlike smile that had become her trademark began to spread across her face. "...Maybe later, though. First, beach party time~! Come on, little sis~!" The catgirl grabbed Jenny's wrist and began to drag her outside.

There was one person in particular, some distance behind the umbrella hideout, who wasn't drawing closer to the ocean.
Anno liked swimming. Swimming was fun. But, well... nervousness. Getting into her swimsuit and getting ready wasn't the hard part. Walking out onto the beach... that was the hard part. Anno shook her head, blushing, and nervously quivered for a few moments. Well... her swimsuit was a one-piece, and it covered her up pretty well, so... it wasn't really too embarrassing. Anno took a deep breath and shook her head, before heading out onto the beach. The sand was kind of hot, and Anno was nervously holding herself. Her glasses were safely tucked in a pocket of her bag, and while this protected them, it also made it rather difficult to see. Colored blobs ran together unless she got close, upon which she could see them perfectly fine.
Well... swimming would be fun, at least.

Tangelo looked up at Tachi, stopped mid-way from biting at the drier sand he'd been examining.
"Oh hi Ms.Tachi! Umm, I saw that the beach was made out of sugar so I tried to taste it!" the half-pint half-demon's expression turned dark "'cept it wasn't sugar at all! It was salt! Really gross, grainy salt! But then, I remembered that the ocean is full of salt so I thought that maybe the ocean got the beach all salty and that means that the part that's not wet is still made sugar!"
He held up a small handful of the white sand and beamed at Tachi "Wanna try some with me? I bet it tastes amazing!" The faraway, sparkling look in his eyes didn't seem like the kind of expression someone playing a prank would wear.

Tachi stared for a moment. On one hand, she didn't want to disappoint the child but at the same time, she didn't particularly like the idea of eating sand. Then again, given where they were, there was a chance that the "sand" was in fact sugar. The logical course of action would be to try to find Grey and ask her about it, although a quick scan of the area showed that the white-haired girl was nowhere in sight.
Sighing, she turned her attention back to the child and smiled. The worst that could happen was that she'd need to find something to drink, right? "Ehe, um, sure." She replied.

"Yaaaaaaaay!" Tangelo was all smiles as he scooped up a child-sized handful of the grainy white beach sand and handed it to Tachi, then scooped up another small handful and licked it himself. His face suddenly lit up like a fireworks factory doing a tour for recovering pyromaniacs and for a second he dove at the beach headfirst, trying to swim through the sand but winding up doing a semi-painful face-plant. He recovered almost instantly, not even blushing or showing any signs of embarrassment at his sandy screwup. However, his expression became instantly sad and pouty when he noticed that Tachi hadn't tried to taste the sand yet.
"Why aren't you trying it yet?....you don't trust me, do you? I...I understand. It's not very believable, huh?"
Tangelo did more or less understand. Telling someone that the sand was made of sugar was something Dollstop would probably have done to trick him if he were here, even though everyone said lying was really bad except one time when Daddy said lying was okay if the lies did funny stuff, but that was confusing. It still made Tangelo sad that Tachi didn't trust him even though he hardly ever lied at all.

The ocean water parted to reveal a great white mound, slowly rising from the surf and steadily growing closer and closer to the beach, headed towards Grey in particular. Perhaps this exact choice of beach was not as safe as had been surmised, and they were about to be eaten by some high Capture Level monstrosity?
... except that, as the tank sized fish was tossed down beside Grey, a blue girl was revealed, stretching to get some kinks out. That thing was heavy.
"Ice-cream Fish from some nastier waters down south. Capture Level... 8ish, I think? Anyway, try not to waste it. It might melt if you don't get a move on," Rain said, heading further up the beach to get a drink.

Snapping a quick picture of Anno from behind before turning to regard the fish, Grey finally emerged from her hideout. She was wearing a wide brimmed sun hat, a white dress, and straw sandals. About her neck were multiple old fashioned cameras, almost antique in nature. Being of light fabric, one could see that under her semi transparent dress was the form fitting yin-yang swimsuit design that the mage was particularly favored to.
"Well, you're talking to a person who's in charge of all phenomena related to coldness so that won't be a problem, aha." Creating bowls and spoons with her ice magic, the mage then began scooping out perfect balls of cold dairy treats from the prey. "Thank you, Rain! Anyone want some ice cream?~" The girl called out to the others.

Thanks to her devil fruit, Anny had seeped beneath the sand during her nap, surfacing in a one-piece swimsuit- being a succubus didn't mean she had to be immodest, after all. She yawned and noticed Grey with the ice cream, rubbing her eyes and walking over.
"I could use some. Mmmm... that was a lovely nap. Kind of hungry though."
Lemon, meanwhile, finally managed to fit her ample chest into a swimsuit and picked up Tangelo.
"Hi, 'Gelo! Is my little champion feeling good today?"

"Real good, Momma!" Tangelo snuggled against Lemon as he was picked up and grinned happily
"I was just showing Ms.Tachi that the sand is made of sugar! Well, some of it's really salty from the ocean, but the rest of it is really sweet!" His expression turned dark and pouty again
"I don't think she believes me 'cause I know it sounds like a lie, but it really really is sugar! It is!" He waved his arms around like he was the half-crazy victim of a conspiracy, playing up the drama of his situation as much as he could.

"Ah, hi Lemon." Tachi greeted, looking up at the demon.
She then turned to Tangelo. "It's nothing like that, ehe. I believe you! Really!" Hesitantly, she licked some of the sand that had been placed in her hands. Her expression quickly changed to one of surprise. "It really is sugar..."

Anno stared blankly, unaware that a picture had been taken of her, as the blob moved up the beach and became more defined until it was revealed that it was a huge fish being carried by Rain. Quickly realizing she shouldn't have cast off her glasses yet, Anno pulled them from her bag and put them on, turning to watch the huge fish be deposited beside the cluster of umbrellas, which was now revealed to be Grey. Anno blinked a few times when Grey began scooping parts of the fish out, before realizing that, like everything in this world, it probably was some kind of food.
From the looks of things... ice cream?
"... Um... ice cream... fish? I... that's... kind of awesome, really, eh-heh..." she said, taking a slow step towards Grey and the fish.

Taking the opportunity for some mischief, Grey materialized a thin filmy hand of ice behind the approaching girl. With a sudden flick, the manifestation pointed its index finger and slowly floated towards the small of Anno's back. "Want some?" Grey asked, holding out the cone in a choreographed flourish meant to distract her friend.

"Ah, um, that would be nice. Thanks GS!" Anno said, smiling and approaching her friend. This was Toriko after all, so everything here tasted fantastic. And, well... Anno liked ice cream a lot. So, tasting really awesome ice cream, even if it came from a fish, was a pretty nice prospect. Briefly, Anno felt a bit of a chill behind her, but she quickly dismissed it and walked over to GS. "I, um, thanks again, eh-heh... Since this is the Toriko universe, I'm sure it's really good ice cream."

While all of this was going on, Dollstop washed up on the beach spluttering and coughing and almost completely covered in strange kinds of seaweed. He struggled to free himself from the accidental seaweed net he'd wound up caught in and even though they'd set out together when everyone first arrived at the beach August was nowhere in sight.
Even though the circumstances were unusual, he didn't seem very upset except for not being able to free himself from the seaweed.
"Pftlagh! Umm..a little help! Please!"

With Dollstop washing up on the beach, Anny and Lemon were both currently checking to see if he was alright, picking off the seaweed.
Anny was first, hugging him tight. "Oh, Doll, are you okay? You're not hurt are you?"
Lemon, of course, brought Tangelo along and was doing all she could to keep from fainting.
