Imagine if the suitors went to the beach for a whole day in the modern world...what crazy crap do you think will happen
Here are a handful of crazy and/or cute headcanons that came to mind! :D
-Mozart swatting away seagulls because HE IS TRYING TO EAT IN PEACE
-Jeanne watching him, MC offering him two water guns with a silent nod (sunglasses on, we’re going full meme)
-Jeanne then proceeds to shoot at them (no gulls were harmed in making of this promotional video) and his aim is impeccable it would be disturbing if the thwarted squawking wasn’t so funny
-Little kids start swarming around Jeanne asking how he’s so amazing and wanting to play team battles, inviting him to join
-Napoleon encourages him, and even Mozart joins in despite not liking getting wet very much (he wants Jeanne to have some positive fun times bc he BIIIIIIIG depressy)
-In the end they both admit to having fun, and one of the kids even teaches Jeanne a special ten step handshake (Jeanne has no idea what that was but the kiddo was smiling so he figured he’d go with it)
-HE AND MOZART STILL SECRETLY USE THE HANDSHAKE FOR FUNSIES BUT TELL NO ONE BECAUSE THEY DON’T LIKE F U N DON’T LOOK AT THEM
-Dazai, alternatively, gathers the fallen gull army and becomes their god with a singular cylinder of Pringles. No I will not elaborate--THE SEA GULLS GOT HER!!!!!!!!
-Spends most of the beach day wetting his feet in the tide pools and talking very earnestly to the gulls about this new thing he learned about called tax evasion while people pass by this fucker in full kimono at the beach and are convinced he’s lost it
-Dazai is very much not sane but we knew this already, offers sea shells to little kids that ask him what he’s doing and tells them to listen to the secrets bird friends can tell them
-If Dazai sounds like an Animal Crossing Villager, that was entirely by accident but remains no less true
-Surprising absolutely no one, Arthur suggests volley ball after watching people play and invites some pretty ladies to join him
-Arthur ends up needing two more people to play, so he invites Vincent and Theo (Vincent is so excited about trying something new that Theo can’t say no despite wanting to make a volleyball-shaped crater in Arthur’s face)
-The funniest part about the volleyball game is that not only is Arthur a shit player (CANON WEAK ARMS FOOL) Theo destroys with his spikes, and Vincent’s reach is insane--the two brothers end up becoming the talk of the beach
-I just laugh imagining Vincent sincerely complimenting people around him and the ladies swooning because he’s just so nice and pretty is he even real
-Men aren’t happy about that^TM but at the sight of Theo’s defensive glower they keep their malicious traps shut--which turn on whichever girls weren’t interested in Vincent jahkslgjh
-**Kaguyasama narrator voice** Today on Arthur Shenanigans: Arthur loses
-Poor Isaac is hiding under the umbrella clutching sunscreen bc HE IS A PASTY BOY HELP HIM
-MC brought a few of the newest Maths/Physics books in her time for him to read, and while he doesn’t enjoy the intensity of the sun--not like vamp weakness, it’s just the strain on his body (too many stimuli too many people too much noise) that makes him tired and ultimately thirsty bc aberrant. But the change of scenery's not so bad.......
-MC laughs when she gets out of the water and the salt dries visibly on her skin, Isaac’s eyes bug out and he asks if it hurts (startles when Leo flicks sea water at him and asks how on earth they got in the water when it’s so cold!!!)
-Leo chats with him and he likes being able to draw theorems and the like in the sand, it’s like one big chalkboard (until a kid tramples across them in the middle of writing, POPPYCOCK!). Isaac ultimately has fun but prefers to stay inside poor bub
-Leonardo, surprising no one, falls asleep in the sand the second he gets there HE IS HOME (Italian beaches, amirite)
-MC decides to, after a point, bury him fully in the sand for shits
-Comte notices and aids in her shenanigans from his beach chair, snickering the whole time
-When the two are satisfied they go for a swim together, trusting Leo to look after Isaac if need be (even if he’s a mummy rn)
-Comte is relieved to hear that she knows how to swim, but also watches carefully and doesn’t let her drift out too far by keeping closer to the shore himself (riptides!!!! can be!!!!!!! dangerous!!!!!!!!!!) if he had his way (he would never impose but he worries ;-;) she’d be wearing floaties SAFETY FIRST
-They splash at each other like maniacs and chat amiably until they start swimming away as fast as possible when Leo wakes up, laughing
-How do we know that Leo woke up?
-Because he sat up ramrod straight and a tower of sand fell. He then proceeded to jump up and sprint to the water despite Isaac’s startled cries about being careful, and swam after them like a shark to get his revenge (it was like something out of an anime s2g)
-Mostly just tugs on MC’s leg, picks her up in the water, and yeets her across in retaliation; really harmless, she’s cackling the whole time
-Dunks Comte’s head in the water while he’s being scolded, and MC has to de-escalate their increasingly dangerous shenanigans before the life guard comes after them LMFAO
-They concede only bc MC looks sad/worried abt being kicked out, and agree to keep things fun FIGHT TO THE DEATH LATER TONIGHT
-Napoleon goes for a nice long walk along the shoreline and climbs the rocks if he finds any til he gets to the top (he does not go to his happy place HE GOES TO HIS HIGH LONESOME PLACE) wishes that Jupiter could be here to enjoy the brine
-Our boy Napoleon is simply just vibin he loves the beach. A little further off the sound of people is p muted, it’s just the crashing waves and crisp smell of salt, the light breeze ruffling his hair 
-Sebas is absolutely watching through binoculars and writing down how majestic Napoleon is while making sure no one gets lost/wrecked as he takes notes
Bonus: since volleyball games can often happen back to back on a sizable beach, the boys^TM were playing and Arthur called out “Theo duck!!!!” and just as Theo was saying “Are you fucking kidding me did you really think I’d--T H W A C K” Theo gets nailed in the back of the head (Arthur later died after being put in a headlock)
Shakespeare didn’t feel like playing volley ball and didn’t have much else to do (can’t swim and has no interest), so he just sat back and tried to throw Theo off his game as much as possible 
Por ejemplo: Theo misses a serve and Shakespeare just “For never was there a story of more woe; O bard Alexa, verily, play us Despacito” “SHUT THE FUCK UP”
Jeanne also gets hit by a stray volley ball, but when Vincent said “Oh no, Jeanne, duck!” he has one of either two reactions: 1. Boulevard of Broken Dreams plays obnoxiously loud as he dodges inhumanly fast 2. he quacks, gets nailed, and doesn’t react because he doesn’t have any brain cells to damage

Notes: This isn’t part of my Sanders Sides merfolk story that I’ve been writing. TBH I’m not 100% sure where this came from. @puns-and-patton @eequalsmcscared (Tagging you two because you’re my friends!)
“OH WHAT A BEAUTIFUL MOOOOORRRNNNING! OH WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DAAAAAAY! I’VE GOT A BEAUTIFUL FEEEEEEEEEELING! EVERYTHING’S GOin’ my waaay!” Roman sang as he and his roommates piled their beach stuff out of Logan’s car and onto the asphalt in the parking lot so they could take it down to the beach.
Virgil rolled his eyes. The only compromise for the warm weather that he’d made was a purple T-shirt under his hoodie rather than the thick, dark, long-sleeved shirt he usually wore and a pair of violet plaid swim trunks with black sandals. His hood was still up over his purple hair. “The morning isn’t that gorgeous, Your Highness,” he snarked sarcastically, glancing up. “The clouds are gonna roll in soon and we might have to evacuate early---”
“Oh hush, Debbie Downer,” Roman retorted.
“Isn’t it Danny Downer for a boy?” Patton asked, hefting three beach towels, two huge umbrellas, a bag with their clothes, and a cooler into his arms and hands.
Logan shrugged, adjusted his sunglasses over his normal glasses, and picked up another cooler and his own towel. “Does it matter? Let’s go,” he said.
The four of them picked their way down the sandy, grass-lined path to the beach. It was a secluded spot that people rarely went to. It wasn’t an uncommon belief in their town that this stretch of sand was haunted. Older people would swear up and down that on some nights they could hear the most ethereal singing coming from this particular beach. Virgil loved listening to the tales, even if he didn’t believe any of them. Patton did too, mostly for the sake of a fun story. In fact, Logan was the only one who listened with irritation. He didn’t believe in ghosts---much less ones that sang.
Logan believed the rumor that the beach was haunted came from the fact that the Sirens’ Shoals was nearby---a shallow shoal that had wrecked many speedboats when the drivers weren’t careful. Nicknamed thus because sirens used to wreck ships and drown sailors.
When the four of them reached the beach, it was as empty as they expected. No one else ever came here. But the young men didn’t mind. They liked the privacy. They could be as loud as they wanted and no one could bother them.
They reached a spot near the rocks on the beach and started to set up. Patton put up umbrellas and Logan spread out towels. Roman slathered everyone in sunscreen---especially Virgil and Logan because they burned easily---while singing Broadway songs.
Patton was enjoying Roman’s performance. Virgil wasn’t. He put his earbuds in his ears and lounged back on one of the folding loungers they’d brought.
Though Roman’s singing was loud enough to be heard through the earbuds.
After a few minutes, Virgil rolled his eyes and got out of the chair, deciding to walk along the beach to the edge where the hill started again.
He stooped every so often to pick up broken pieces of seashells. The broken ones were his favorite. Reminders that not everything in life had to be perfect to be beautiful.
Virgil stopped walking as a monster wave washed up on shore and quickly receded. He could hear his roommates crying out in surprise and scrambling to get their gear out of reach. “The highest point of high tide is not supposed to be for another three hours!” Logan shouted.
Virgil didn’t even turn around to look at them.
He was too fascinated by what the wave left behind---more than wet sand.
A person with long hair flowing down to their hips. Though their hips and legs were buried under a layer of sopping wet sand. “Uh, pardon me, uh...” Sir? Miss? Was there a polite gender-neutral honorific that he was unaware of? Captain? Your Highness? “Pardon me? Are you alright?” he finished, deciding to forego the honorific altogether.
No response.
Virgil took a cautious step closer. The person was face-down so everything was hidden. Their face, their mouth---he hoped they could breathe---and anything that would indicate whether or not they were even alive.
Were they dead? Was that common? Was that why this place was thought to be haunted? Dead bodies washing up on the shore? How grim. He kinda enjoyed the thought. Another careful step towards the person. He should probably have called out for Patton and the others...
“Hello?” he pressed quietly.
The person sat up with a deep gasp, eyes wild and mouth open wide. They were covered in sand and panting. They seemed to present femininely, but Virgil decided not to preemptively assume anything.
They stared at him for several moments, still panting, as something dawned in their---remarkably dark---eyes. Which flicked up and down Virgil. Then focused on his legs.
Then another gasp. The newcomer scrambled toward the sea with their arms. Virgil noticed the legs dragging through the sand, still buried under a layer so he couldn’t see them well. Virgil didn’t even know what to do so he just stood, rooted to the spot, and watched them try to make it back into the water. The monster wave had washed them up pretty far though.
The person stopped. There was a moment of stillness. They slowly sagged back down onto the sand.
Virgil heard them crying.
He approached again---but only a few steps. “It’s alright. I’m not going to hurt you,” he said. “What’s wrong?”
Those dark eyes turned back to look at him. The crying continued.
Okaaay... other people crying was really out of Virgil’s comfort zone. He really needed to call for Patton...
No need.
“Great Odin’s eyepatch!” Roman exclaimed from two feet behind Virgil’s left ear. He jumped and smacked his boisterous roommate’s arm. “Patton! Get over here!”
Running in sand was difficult but Patton managed to reach them in good time. “Oh sweetie!” he whispered, looking heartbroken that this person, half-buried in wet sand, was weeping. “It’s alright. We’re not going to hurt you. What’s wrong?”
The person hiccuped. “I... I can never go home,” they murmured quietly.
“Aw. Why not?” Patton pressed, approaching gently, hands out to show he meant no harm. He crouched next to them.
They threw their arms around Patton. “I lost my tail! And now I can never go home!”
Huh?
Virgil scrunched his eyebrows. “Your tail?”
The person nodded and wiggled their hips. The wet sand slid off their lower half---
To reveal a scaly fish tail. Long and elegant. Shimmering turquoise in the sunlight with a hint of silver on the edges. The fluke was wide and gracefully draped over the sand.
“By Persephone! You’re a mermaid!” Roman gasped. He caught himself. “I mean---I didn’t mean to presume. What I meant was---you’re a merperson. A member of the merfolk, if you will---”
The newcomer waved their hand dismissively. “Don’t hurt yourself. Mermaid is fine. I’m a girl,” she said.
Patton kept his hand on her shoulder. “Doesn’t look like you lost it to me,” he said comfortingly. “How come you can’t go home?”
She sniffed and wiped her nose. “I got caught in a fishing net. Pulled into a fishing boat. Once I was out of the water, my tail turned into legs.” As she spoke, a shimmer that resembled heat off a hot road passed over her long tail, revealing a pair of short, thin legs and a skirt of scales. “In my pod, if we lose our tail to legs for even a moment we are no longer welcome home.”
“How come?” Patton asked gently.
The mermaid girl’s eyes hardened. “Because humans are a disease to the planet and it’s a disgrace to walk among them.”
Roman made a noise that sounded what, “???” felt like.
Virgil grunted, arms folded over his ribs.
The girl broke down again. “And now I have to walk among them for the rest of my life or return to the ocean podless!” She buried her face in her hands and cried even harder. “Merfolk can’t survive without a pod. Not even me.”
Virgil crouched in front of her, relating to that sentiment. Much as his roommates got on his nerves at times, he didn’t know where he’d be without them. Certainly in a less-happy place than he was currently in.
Patton and Roman looked thoughtful for a moment.
And then Logan finally joined the party. “What’s all the hullabaloo abou---oh.” He stared at the girl. “Where... did you come from?” he asked.
“That big wave washed her up,” Virgil supplied.
“Ah. I see.”
Another wave washed up on the sand, Roman danced out of the way but Patton let it wash right over his lower body so the mermaid girl could continue to hold onto him. The wave hung on the sand for a moment and then receded back to the sea. Clumps of wet sand slid off the girl’s tail---which had reformed with the water.
Logan stared at her tail. “That’s not... that’s not possible!”
“Don’t be such a stick in the mud,” Virgil muttered. “It’s literally right in front of your eyes.”
“But Virgil---mermaids aren’t real.”
“We are too,” the girl retorted, getting over her sorrow for a moment to drown it in sass. “We just don’t like humans so we don’t contact them.” She gave him a sarcastic grin.
“Hey, we never caught your name,” Patton pointed out.
The girl bit her lower lip. “It’s, uh, it’s kinda hard to say in English. Hmm. Uh... you can call me... Aaralyn,” she said.
“Aaralyn. How about you come home with us for a couple days?” Patton suggested. “We’ll help you figure everything out.”
“Uh... why?” Logan put in.
“We’ll explain in a minute,” Virgil said. He turned his attention back to Aaralyn. “Yeah kid. We’re pretty chill. We can give you a couple pointers on human life.”
She shook her head. “I really couldn’t ask you---we’re practically strangers---”
“That’s okay. You need help,” Patton pressed.
“Not to mention you’re a mermaid,” Roman added, looking awestruck.
“Which is not the point,” Patton chastised.
“Nah. Just a bonus,” Virgil put in, arms still folded over his chest.
“How about this, kiddo. We came to the beach to play and hang out. How about you stay with us till it’s time for us to go home and then make your decision?”
Aaralyn nodded. “I can do that,” she said.
Patton beamed. “Wonderful!”
Tumblr media
Virgil watched Patton and Roman have a water fight in the waves with a disinterested expression on his face. Logan was reading a book on his foldable lounge chair. When Virgil glanced at said book, he expected it to maybe be a mystery novel---Logan’s favorite type of novel to read. Nope. Logan was legitimately sitting on a lounge chair reading a chemistry textbook.
“Didn’t you graduate college, like, six years ago?” Virgil asked.
“Yes,” Logan said blandly.
“So how come the textbook?”
“It’s fascinating.”
Virgil blinked. “Right,” he said.
“What’s a textbook?” Aaralyn asked from where she had quietly been sculpting the sand into a coral reef.
“It’s a type of book meant to teach,” Logan said. “Most often used for school.”
“Correction: only used for school by everyone except you,” Virgil joked. “You’re the only person I know who reads textbooks for enjoyment.” Logan shrugged and turned his page, pushing his glasses up his nose.
“PATTON!” Roman shouted. “PATTON THAT’S A RIP!”
The three heads of those on the beach whirled to see Patton fighting against a current, struggling to make it back to shore.
Aaralyn sprung to her feet and bolted into the waves. Virgil jumped up as well and ran to the edge, only able to watch as she dove in with perfect diving form. After a moment the fluke of her tail smacked the top of the water as it disappeared under.
There were several tense moments of silence while Patton fought the riptide before Aaralyn’s head appeared behind him. She wrapped one arm around his chest and pulled him onto his back. Roman, Logan, and Virgil watched tensely as she gently pulled him out of the riptide, off to the side, and then back to the beach. Patton washed up gracelessly, coughing and crawling onto dry sand on all fours.
Aaralyn washed up looking even worse, tail flapping uselessly in water too shallow to swim in and hair hanging in sopped clumps on either side of her face. Both of them were panting, sagged in the sand and not getting up.
Patton regained his feet first and went over to Aaralyn, offering her his hand. She took it and let him help her back to her face once her tail vanished.
Virgil would never tell Roman, but Patton was the strongest of the four roommates. Patton liked going to the gym and working out so he was strong enough to take care of his friends---and give the absolute best hugs.
One of which he immediately bestowed upon Aaralyn. He wrapped her up in a powerful hug. “You saved me,” he whispered.
Virgil ran and wrapped his arms around both of them. Aaralyn flinched but didn’t retreat.
Roman trudged out of the sea and he joined the group hug. Logan hung back, not particularly fond of physical affection.
“Thank you, Aaralyn,” Virgil said quietly.
She nodded. “Of course,” she replied.
“Are you going to let us help you learn to be human now?” Patton asked. “Come stay with us so we---well, I---can repay you?”
Aaralyn sighed. “You owe me nothing, Patton,” she said.
“Yes I do.”
“We all do. Patton is the heart of our little... band. We’d be lost without him,” Virgil said.
Aaralyn “Hmm”ed and rocked back and forth in the sand. “Oh. Well... alright,” she agreed. “Just for a little while.”
Patton beamed. “Yay! This’ll be fun!”

a short list of my favorite spongebob squarepants musical lyrics:
some of us just want adventures / the open sea wind in our earrings / why are we constantly misunderstood? / don’t you know pirates have feelings?
i’ve got a plan, and i went to college so you know it’s clever
nothing’s crumbier than no bread
sure, i spend my days floating around / head in the bubbles and my feet on the ground
a sensitive artiste can’t get a moment’s peace
i should be my daddy’s greatest prize / but instead he’s got dollah signs in his eyes 
right now the getting’s good, so let’s get out while we can
it’s a typical (incredible!), a regular (exceptional!), an ordinary (extraordinary!) bikini bottom DAAAAAAY
when others see me, they can’t see the nobody that isn’t there
why are you waiting for the bottom to fall? / not the time to drop the ... big beach ball / ALL FOR ONE AND ONE FOR ALL

***WONDER WOMAN SPOILERS***
By far my favorite part of the Wonder Woman movie was its portrayal of human nature.
Hear me out.
You’ve got Diana, this powerful, beautiful, intelligent creature.
Tumblr media
Her set goal in life is to defend humanity from the demonic influence of a fallen god who believes that there is nothing in mankind worth saving.
And at the start of the movie, Diana has this unshakeable belief that mankind is good. Such that she abandons her paradise homeland for an unknown world of war. 
But even when she gets there, she still thinks humanity is beautiful. She eats ice cream for goodness sakes! Who wouldn’t love this world?! 
Tumblr media
But slowly she starts to see the dark side of mankind. As the movie progresses you see her experience war the way someone who has never been in combat would. 
See that’s the thing about Wonder Woman - she’s trained as a warrior, but she’d never been in a real battle before that day when D.C.’s Captain America Steve crashed on her beach. And that was just one little battle. Now she’s seeing the real horrors of battle.
And it breaks her heart.
Tumblr media
Now, don’t get me wrong. She C R U S H E S it. That scene in No Man’s Land? A+ for daaaaaays. When she frees that town? So powerful. But those are the moments when Diana begins to see the real horror of the human world.
Yet she holds on to her immaculate image of humanity. Why? Because this is all Ares’ doing. Kill Ares, stop war.
Fast forward to when Diana thinks she has killed Ares (Ludendorff), but the war doesn’t stop. Remember Steve.
Tumblr media
(Yeah I know that’s not actually a gif of this moment in the movie but that scene was hilarious and this is my text post so I can do what I want)
Steve’s mission in this whole thing was never Diana’s mission. While Diana wanted to save humanity from the curse of Ares, Steve literally just wanted to stop this Dr. Poison character from unleashing her mustard gas on steroids upon the whole of humanity. 
Back to immediately after Diana kills Ludendorff.
That’s her first major crisis moment. Ares is dead so WHY ARE THESE IDIOT HUMANS STILL FIGHTING?! And Steve has to tell her that maybe it’s because humanity isn’t perfect. Maybe there’s some bad in them after all and it’s not just Ares’ influence that has them fighting this war.
Tumblr media
Later, Ares also tells her that he never forced any of these humans into this war, he just made a couple suggestions, and they did it all on their own. 
Keep in mind, Ares is the devil character, which means he is a liar. But sometimes even liars can tell the truth. Isabella and Ludendorff may not have been as successful without Ares’ help, but they would have done what they did without his prompting.
So Ares presents Isabella to Diana and gives her the opportunity to destroy Dr. Poison. It’s the pivotal moment.
Tumblr media
Diana has lost faith in humanity’s perfection. Ares is telling her that humanity is nothing but evil. So, does she join Ares and destroy this definitely not innocent life?
No. She goes after Ares. And D E S T R O Y S him.
Why? Because Steve.
Steve, who was a tiny cog in a massive war machine.
Steve, who wanted to save the world, but couldn’t.
Steve, who would do pretty much anything because he loved humanity, because he loved Diana.
Steve, who died for love.
Tumblr media
Because Ares might be partially right: yeah. Humans suck sometimes. But ultimately, it’s Steve who’s right. Even if humans do bad things, there’s also something good in them, something that makes life sacred, something that makes life worth saving. 
Just like Steve.
And yeah, it’s corny. But only love can save the world from this bifurcation of humanity: corrupt and capable of great evil, but not wholly unredeemable.
Only Love, who became man to save humanity from itself.
Just another reason why Wonder Woman was such an awesome movie.
TL;DR Humanity has the capacity to do amazingly terrible things, but we can be saved by love (cough or one who died for love).
