What are you even aiming at!? The target's over THERE!

[nojohnyouare]

[She flings the ball hard and... misses the target, but somehow the ball splashes INTO the tank. Mai frowns a little.]

Difficult. Are there more balls.

[fistsofchange]

[She jerked her head out of the way of the wayward ball with the expected reflexes of someone of her skills.]

You know there's no bonus points for hitting me, right?

New rule, if you don't get it with the next three balls, you have to take my place in here.

[nojohnyouare]

Oh. ...Really?

[Mai looks skeptical about this, but picks up the next ball and throws it.]

I won't hit you.

[...but will she hit the target.]

[fistsofchange]

I know you won't, you have-

[SPLASH! INTO THE TANK SHE GOES!]

[nojohnyouare]

........[Blink. Blink.]

How. ...Are you okay.

[fistsofchange]

Ackpth!

[A moment while she flails about in the water, before emerging and wiping her eyes clear.]

WOW that's cold!

[nojohnyouare]

[Mai walks up to the tank and shakes her head.]

Unhurt? Okay. ...Sorry?

[fistsofchange]

It's fine it's fine! I'm fine!

[She shivered, then started climbing out of the tank.]

That's the point of the game, after all. You don't have to apologize.

[nojohnyouare]

Okay. Have you been sunk often?

[fistsofchange]

You're the first.

[Once outside she gets a towel to dry off.]

[nojohnyouare]

I wonder why a dunk tank. In a party about fire. Variety?

[fistsofchange]

Because...

...You know that's a really good question? That is kind of weird isn't it?

[nojohnyouare]

They probably have reasons. Like... In case of actual fire.
