Wario trudged off in the direction that Goose headed, but he was exceptionally slower due to both his girth and the fact that he lacked wings.

So maybe about ten minutes later, Wario showed up at the Stadium to find a beautiful scaled-down vacation island with plenty of sand to spare.

"Ha! Lots of sand to build lots of sandcastles! I like this!"

He should have brought his bathing cap.

"Thanks, Captain Obvious. Sure didn't know that yet."

Goose snickered and patted a spot next to him in the sand.

"C'mon, or I'm gonna get started without you. You like the island?"

He's very proud of his homeland.

Wario did like the island. It was a nice place and he could easily see himself relaxing by the beach on a hammock with a pina colada served in a coconut shell.

"Yeah I like the island! I want to set up my summer home here!"

Well, if only Wario had a summer home. Or money to afford one. Truth be told, he probably did have plenty of money, but the thought of spending it would break him.

Wario took a seat next to Goose where he had motioned. "All right!" he shouted, "Let's get this thing started!"

And so, he began clumping up some sand.

Goose couldn't help but laugh a little.

"Shit. Well then," Goose began, taking some sand and shoving it together. He began to pat it into a square and work around it to turn it into a cylinder. He'd make this amazing.

"I can always give you directions. It's Holiday Island. Ever heard of the place? I lived there all my life."

Wario worked up some of the wet sand into some clumps, forming a couple of small rectangular pillars. Hmm... no, that wouldn't work. He had to form some sort of a base first. So, he scrapped it and and started over, forming a couple larger squares.

"Holiday Island?" he answered, "Never heard of the place. Sounds fancy, though." And if it looked anything like Goose's simulation, it was fancy. And Goose was pretty damned lucky to claim that as his hometown.

Not bad, Wario, but Goose has a trick for this. He forms yet another cylinder. Both are very short by now, no more than an inch tall, and formed into a perfect square formation. He then gets some nearby washed up driftwood he collected while Wario was heading here and piled it up between the pillars to fill in that 'square'. That inside was then going to be topped with the sand that would make the base of the castle.

"It sure is. It's just like this, if not better. Got a big ol' castle, amusement parks everywhere, a village, some kinda crazy day and night folklore," cough- the cave- cough- "and just... kinda crazy stuff all over. You might like it."

Wario listened intently to Goose's description of Holiday Island as he continued sculpting the base of his castle. He was not as savvy as Goose was, although he would never admit that. However, Goose had grown up near a beach, and Wario had not, so that was one rationalization.

Wario had built four evenly-spaced squares to use as the corner pillars of the castle, so now he was going to fill in the outer walls.

"Hmm... an amusement park, you say?" An amusement park meant lots of people willing to spend money. So, therefore, if Wario set up his business there, then he could make a ton of money! It was perfect! It was the ideal place to live. Beautiful scenery, fun things to do, and most of all, paying customers.

Goose snorted. "More than just AN amusement park. We're kinda all tourist-based here. Not a lot of natives." Which was honestly a shame. Most of the Holidaian natives either left or stuck around in the villages. Most of the people with pure-Holidaian heritage only lived in the towns, in fact, as the workers were usually immigrants from the 'States.

Then again, Goose also has roots in the 'States, so maybe he shouldn't complain much. Still, though, it'd be nice to see more people carry out the tropical-southern tradition like his family does.

"We got golf courses, giant resorts, the castle's open to anyone, the parks, a huge lighthouse... shit, we just got a lot. You'll have to check it out sometime, got it?"

So, if this place was a resort, then that would still mean lots of idiots willing to buy stupid things.

"So, are there any gift shops in this place?" Wario asked. That would mean that there was business. Wario's expertise was definitely in business and economics, so he of all people would know how to usurp the competition and get the money from those clueless tourists.

As Wario began to fantasize about all the money he could make from this operation, he continued sculpting, building up that giant pile of sand in the middle of the frame of the castle.

"Plenty."

Goose began to finish the last touches of his floor's molding, and then began to add the outer walls. This one required more precision. He didn't want to accidentally knock them down. That's a bit tough to do.

"Shit, there's even gift shops in the castle. There's just that many. Lots of people like goin' to the castle's one the most 'cause of all the high-quality souvenirs, even novice-built Birdman's wings."

Those probably have more securing straps. Sure, those limited twisting and turning for flight just a bit more, but they were easier for any old flyer to use. He used different ones for professionals with much less protection, but much more flexibility.

Wario's ears perked up at hearing about how many gift shops there were in this Holiday Island. Oh yes, he could be such a wonderful entrepreneur there. He could drive the other gift shops out of business and run a monopoly on the island! Yes! Ha ha ha!

Of course, this would take some careful planning, but hell, if it meant all that money, Wario would be glad to do it. But wait, he had no idea what that one souvenir was.

"Say, what are those Birdman wings you were talking about?"

"They're wings you attach to your arms and body to get you to fly. Y'know, like a bird. Pretty damn simple."

Goose shrugged and put the finishing sand on top of the fourth wall. ~~It then toppled down once Goose complained that his mun was making this tag too short and dumb.~~

"Doesn't take much effort. Even you could lift your fatness off the ground."

Wario had sculpted a larger cylinder in the middle of his castle and had evened out the walls and pillars, attempting to give them at least a little bit of aesthetic appeal.

The bird wings sounded interesting, although Wario immediately had to protest when Goose mentioned Wario's "fatness."

"HEY. I'm not fat. I wear a lot of extra clothing under this thing, you know."

"Oh yeah?"

Goose finished the other outer wall and folded his arms over his chest proudly.

"Then show me. C'mon, chop chop. Ain't got all day."

"Hey!" Wario protested, "Artwork takes time, you know."

Although Wario's castle could barely hold a candle to Goose's and probably still wouldn't in the end, he wanted to at least look like he was making an effort. Although it was tempting to stand up and stomp on Goose's castle, Wario refrained from doing that as well.

However, Wario started building much faster, sculpting the large cylinder in the middle to resemble some sort of inner chamber. It was hastily put-together, but with that and the walls, he could say he was fairly close to being done.

Shit. Goose's was way better.

"... I meant your fat layers. Silly."

Goose rolled his eyes and began to work on the ceiling. It was a flat square at first, but he began to make a dome shape on top. He'd then add pillars for a flair and then work on details, such as windows and a door. Maybe even a moat with a drawbridge!

"What? Like I said, I wear a lot of clothing, and I ain't taking it off!"

He hated it when people pointed out his obesity. However, ~~unlike the mun,~~ Wario was in a fair amount of denial about it. After all, he was quite muscular as well, judging by the size of his biceps and triceps. He just had a lot of visceral fat, although Wario would simply say that his high weight was due to his clothing. Yeah, that was totally it.

Getting back to the castle, Wario took some sticks and seaweed and tried to make a little flag for part of it. He figured he could decorate other parts with seashells, although his castle would probably still look pretty crappy anyway.

"But ain't it fresher that way? I mean, shit, you must be sweatin' bullets by now."

Then again, if he was, wouldn't he be sweating the scent of garlic? Honestly, that's the conclusion Goose was reaching, thus reinforcing his belief that Wario was lying through his teeth. Which probably also smelled like garlic. Yes.

He began to work on the pillars and gave Wario's castle this look during a pause.

"... That's it?"

"Bah! I like to be comfy and padded!"

Wario wasn't really wearing that many layers. Actually he was really only wearing one, plus a vest. He just rationalized that they were very thick. He wasn't sweating too terribly, and thankfully he had put on deodorant this morning. Although that probably did nothing to mask the smell of garlic.

In response to Goose's comment about the sandcastle, though, Wario had to defend himself. "Hey! Like I said, good art takes time." Though Wario wouldn't admit that he thought he was close to being done. And he definitely wouldn't admit that he really had no idea how to make a sandcastle as beautiful as Goose's.

Goose snorted and gestured to his near-finished product, pillars standing tall and proud around his small castle with the dome-like roof. "I kinda beg to differ here, sir. Look. This ain't that hard."

He leaned over and gave one, two, three small 'heh's in the direction of Wario's pathetic excuse for a sandcastle.

"Looks like you don't seem to get that."

One thing about Goose: he really, really loves to goad.

"Nngh..." Wario grunted in response, "Well I didn't grow up on a beach! I've barely had any experience in this."

Well at least Wario was able to admit that Goose's castle was way better. Sort of. Maybe. Okay fine, it was. Goose knew all the tricks to making these castles beautiful, but Wario was too "proud" to ask for any tips.

It took almost all his effort not to stand up and kick down Goose's sandcastle.

Goose finally let out one loud laugh at Wario's expense. It was a bit of a honking laugh. Honk honk honk.

"Wooooooow, hahahaha! Way to go, tubb'ums. Challengin' me when you ain't got much experience. You know what you should do?" He questioned. He wasn't about to let him answer, as he was just leaning in and poking at Wario's nose with a response.

"Challenge me at something you're ACTUALLY good at."

Gee. Goose sounds like of like an actual goose when he laughs. Wario ought to throw him in the lake with all the rest of the geese so he can be with his family. His brethren. Too bad there was no lake here.

"Screw you, bird-brain!" Wario shouted, standing up and kicking down Goose's castle. There, he finally did it. Now Wario's was the best castle standing. Technically.

"So we don't all have talents in every little thing ever. Fine. I'll admit that I'm not perfect." Though it was hard to admit that.

Wario was obviously peeved at not only failing at building a good sandcastle, but having Goose rub it in his face. At the same time, though, Wario would have done the exact same thing had their positions been switched. So, in a way, Wario kind of admired Goose for being so much like his favorite person ever.

"If you want a real challenge, my friend," Wario said with a grin, "Then I challenge you to a WarioWare duel." Wario would beat him at his own game. Literally. It was Wario's own game. Just so you know.

Oh, here's Wario, just pushing down his sandcastle. Whatever, he's a sore loser, he's not surprised, and what in the world is that even supposed to be. What?

Goose stood up, stared down at him, and wondered what in the world he was on. That couldn't possibly be a real thing, right?

"... What the hell's a WarioWare."

Wario cracked a grin at Goose's question. Here his entrepreneur instinct was kicking in, and he knew that A. not only would he beat Goose's sorry ass at this game, but B. he could spread the game's popularity and make more money! Hell, if Goose told his friends about the game, then more money would go into his pocket!

"WarioWare, my good man, is a game series designed by yours truly. It's a bunch of little minigames. Now, I know you're thinking, 'Oh gee, those minigames in Mario Party really sucked!' Well, this isn't Mario Party! Those minigames did suck. But these WarioWare minigames don't."

And there was his diatribe. Come on, Goose, what do you have to lose?

asgasdgasdg I love the Pilotwings references <3333

all for you bb >w<
