*After a moment or two, Terragon gets up and allows the crab to scuttle onto Jupiter's massive paws. The squirrel makes her way down the stretch of shortening sand towards the sea. The tide wanders up the beach patiently, but is not high enough yet to stop Ashnel and Birchy play fighting or prevent Terragon from slipping into the water.* *A moment later, the red squirrel scurries back. Cold! Freezing! But after a minute, ventions back in gingerly.*

OOC: I'm sorry for letting this go so long, I've written perhaps three different responses to this but never actually posted.
How is the water? *Ayeny calls to Terragon, watching the squirrel step in, step out, and step in again. Idly her paws begin to fiddle with each other as the distracted squirrel looks around before returning her gaze to the other.*

OOC: No matter.
BIC: *Terragon looks up, calling back.* Dunno... alright, I s'ppose. *Ashnel frees himself from his "duel" with Birchy and charges down into the water. He crashes head-on into the waves, ignoring the cold. Show off, Terragon thinks idly as she goes to splash him. After avenging himself, Ashnel glances up at the shore.* C'mon, Ayeny!

Oh, fine, *says Ayeny, not at all reluctantly, and though her first step in the water is slow, her next come more quickly, and she splashes the other two with a sweep of her paw.* The water's a little chilly, *she remarks to Terragon with a slight shiver, but the water seems warmer even after just a short while in it.*

*Birchy soon joins them, leaving Jupiter and the crab sitting on the beach. The badger looks down at the other, remarking.* Looks like we've been deserted... *He smiles slightly.* Oh, well. Just you and me now, Jimmy, right? *Jupiter's smile widens.* Jimmy the crab... *He sighs happily.*
*Ashnel beams at Birchy as the little squirrel wades through the water towards the other.* You can swim? *The first squirrel asks. The younger nods.* The water's warmer here than in the North. Nat'rally. *Terragon mutters.* Much warmer. *Birchy adds.* Sure. *The red squirrel agrees and Ashnel gives her an odd look.* Quiet. *He says with a grin and splashes her triumphantly.*
