It seemed a good day for skinny dipping. Then again, in Demyx's most expert opinion, any day was a good day for skinny dipping. He was dressed in a pair of tight black pants, decorated with lots of buckles, black and white sneakers, one of his trademark long-sleeved t-shirts bearing the legend: "Would you stroke my ego? It's in my front pocket.", topped off with a pair of mittens and a very puffy jacket trimmed in fluff. In fact, it was the sort of outfit that didn't look like could be taken off easily... and with the snow crunching underfoot as he made his way down to the lake, few would probably want to take it off. After all, it was abusively cold. But the sitarist, with a towel tucked under his arm and a grin on his lips, was perfectly serious about his polar plunge! Even if no one else turned up, he needed to swim... and would do so alone. But if the others turned up... even better~
He reached the lake, stood with a be-mittened hand on his hip... and waited.

Totally gonna get a cold. Again.

It was cold. Good Lord, it was cold! But, he made a promise to a friend and promises were things that were never to be broken, no matter how light or severe. Wearing a red hoodie, some blue jeans, earmuffs, and black and white checkered tennis shoes, Sora made his way out to the lake, breath puffing from his mouth from the chill in the air. I have to be crazy.. he thought to himself. Seeing Demyx, he grinned and lifted an arm, waving it as he jogged the rest of the way to the lake and very close to his friend, whom he then gave a big hug for absolutely no reason! Other than the fact that Demyx was just loads of fun to hug, of course. That just went without saying.

“Glad I’m not late!” He spared a glance around. “No one else is here yet, huh?”

Demyx squeezed Sora back a lot more than was strictly necessary and grinned down, just a little, at him. Everyone should be like Sora, he thought. Utterly huggable. Anywhere. Anytime. He loved it. And willing to skinny dip, in very very very cold weather.
"Not yet~ but if it was just you, I wouldn't mind at all~!" he laughed and pulled his fluffy hood over his head, to warm his ears. It made a nice change from the hood of the Organization hood, really. Much more... soft.
"We can only hope more will come though! I think there's some crazy enough people around~"
He looked around himself, standing close to Sora, doing an odd little dance from foot to foot to keep warm, singing a song to himself. Cold or not, he couldn't wait to jump on in!

Walking out into the oh-so-cold snow, Zexion headed towards the lake. He didn't know why he decided to agree to Demyx's crazy idea, but here he was, going to freeze his ass off with all these other insane people. It wasn't his idea of fun, but he couldn't do much about it now.

Dressed in a dark, fluffy jacket with the hood up, boots, a pair of jeans, and a turtleneck that couldn't be seen do to having his coat zipped all the way up, the silver-haired teen slowly made his way through the snow over to where he saw two figures standing. He assumed one of them would be his roommate. At least, it was a good assumption, since Demyx was the one who had planned the thing.

[melodiousmohawk]

Well... really do tickle Demyx pink and call him a turkey! Zexion decided to come?! Other than being too awesome for words, that was just... weird. Literally bouncing over to the smaller figure, and slipping slightly in his haste, he grinned, took him by the arm and dragged him back to where Sora was standing.
"Zexizexizexizexi~" he chanted oddly, seeming just a little too happy for someone who was about to freeze their nuts off. "ZEXI! You came! I totally thought you wouldn't~! You're awesome, man."
He didn't let go off Zexion's arm throughout this, and somewhere along the way, grabbed onto Sora's as well. More for warmth, than anything else. This plan would be going under the good plans index in his mind... even though, they hadn't taken the plunge yet. The sitarist was ETERNALLY optimistic, and with the arrival of at least two people, one he never dreamed would come, even more so.

Greed strolled out towards the lake, grinning at the idiocy of swimming in weather like this. Still, it was bound to be at least a little fun, and that was never a bad thing. Assuming he wouldn't be wearing much for long, he had just loose trousers and a t-shirt on, his fur-collared jacket thrown on for a little extra warmth. Sure, he was cold, but that was kind of unavoidable.

Raising a hand in greeting to the three already there, he stuck his hands into the back pockets of his trousers to keep them warm. "So..which one of you is the lunatic that wants to swim in this?" he asked with a smile.

[melodiousmohawk]

The grin on Demyx's face barely had room to get any wider as he watched another figure approach their little rendezvous point. He'd never seen him before... but he had a feeling... yes, it must've been... he was going to take a stab in the dark and hope he was right.
"Greed~!" There was no other way to describe it, the nocturne let go off his companions briefly and pounced on the tall new friend. That done, he hugged him... squeezed him for all he was worth, ignoring the fluff of Greed's hood tickling his nose and making him want to sneeze. Really, the little musician was a whole lot stronger than he looked. Being a skinny runt and all. At least, his bear hugs could barely be rivaled by any other.
Finally, he let go and glowed at Greed, towing him back to the group. "Dude, if I put money on who was definitely coming, all bets would be on you. Awesome."
This was definitely turning out to be a good day.

[blackfalsehuman]

"Woah..hey there," Greed replied, a bemused smile on his face as the bubbling man, obviously Demyx, dragged him over to the others. That had been one hell of a hug, the guy sure knew how to say hi. Regaining his composure, he winked at the blonde. "Well, of course I was going to show, I mean come on - finally get to meet you, see some flesh, how could I stay away?"

He looked around at the other two gathered there, giving a lazy wave in greeting. "Hey, I'm Greed - as if our friend's welcome didn't let you know." He laughed a little, Demyx's enthusiasm was infectious. "Good to know I'm not the only insane one here." He returned his attention to the shining face of his new friend. "You must be pleased - the more the merrier, right?"

[melodiousmohawk]

There was no excitement quite like Demyx's right now. He grinned fit to bust, still continuing his maniac dance to keep warm. It still seemed like he wasn't thinking of just how cold that lake would be. "Some flesh... definitely a good thing." Indeed, Greed didn't disappoint.
"And definitely the more the merrier! There so should've been more though, we'll wait a little longer... and then, strip off and in all we go!"
The lake shimmered menacingly, but it had never looked so inviting. Especially with the gathered already here to share it with him.

It was cold, very cold, and the thought of going to swim in a weather like this made Reno shiver. Even though Reno had no doubt after his last meeting with the guy that Demyx was definitely insane, this just comfirmed it. Reno was pretty sure that diving into that dark, freezing water was a suicide.

And still he was here, apparently on his way to skinny dipping in that lake. He stuffed his hands deeper into the pockets of his plain looking but warm winter jacket. Approaching the lake he noticed four people already standing there. Demyx was there of course, jumping around like he was on drugs which didn't surprise Reno at all anymore. And Greed, he idly wondered if that body of Greed's could protect the guy against cold too. Apart from these two guys that he knew there were two other lunatics as well. He shook his head a little while walking to the others, Are the most goodlooking ones always the most insane too?

[melodiousmohawk]

Spotting an easily visable and very familiar figure, Demyx freed himself from the small group and galloped towards the Turk, stopping only to launch himself at Reno and smother him in hug.

"Lucky you decided to come~" Demyx smirked and winked at Reno once he'd released him. "You'd never hear the end of it if you didn't!" He glanced back to Greed. "Probably not just from me, either... and and! Zexi came, look!" He pointed in the direction of Zexion and dragged Reno bodily back to the small circle by the elbow, just like the others.

With the arrival of the group's fifth member, Demyx grew even more in excitement. The lake didn't daunt him... he'd swum in much colder water before. Loved doing it, in fact. But he'd been a long time since he'd taken a dip with a group so glowing in awesomeness. Just for fun. Lunacy had nothing to do with it.

Not much, anyway.
