Beach Entry // In person

Jul 05, 2010 17:24


[For the first time in several days, Miria wakes up, stretches, and heads out of her room, in search of food. As the doors open, she immediatily notices the change in surroundings...and loves it]

Oh wow! This is incredible!! We're on the beach! Is this some kind of field trip? Or maybe even a holiday!

[James is standing staring out over the water with his brow furrowed. When he hears Miria's voice he jumps and spins around to face her. His eyes light up and he runs to her]

Miria! You're alright!

and so the duo return~ prettyincrime July 5 2010, 17:11:29 UTC
[ As soon as she hears/see's James she visibly brightens even more]

James! Hi!! Isn't this amazing? I've never been to a beach before, it's so beautiful!

[Perhaps she didn't hear the 'you're alright'? Or she doesn't know what he means so she's just ignoring it and is more delighted to see him - most likely the latter]

[James is grinning ear to ear]

It's pretty beautiful, isn't it? Water's not even cold.

[He's been swimming, clearly]

Thank Merlin, you're alright!

You don't remember?

Oh, Merlin? He was, er, a Wizard centuries ago. He was brilliant, like the best Wizard ever. Well, until me. I'm going to be famous like him one day. At least, I plan to be.

Okay James; this is like a 4 year old asking if Santa exists; you wanna tell the truth, but... prettyincrime July 5 2010, 19:08:21 UTC
mm, not really; I remember being in the garden...and then waking up here...You were there too! Did I fall asleep?

((The whole idea of wizards and magic is literally the coolest thing to her at the moment ^^;;))

Oh wow! Really?! That's incredible! I'm sure you'll be even better than him one day!

[He pauses for a moment, his smile wavering. Then he says]

You were a bit sick, that's all.

[He smiles warmly at her]

Yeah, one day!

*thumbs up*~ prettyincrime July 5 2010, 19:55:37 UTC
Oh...well, I don't really remember; But I guess that's good huh? And I feel really good now ^^ Even better than good!

[Holds out her arms and closes her eyes, feeling the breeze and the warmth of the sun on her face. After a moment, she opens her eyes again, and look over to the ocean, smiling again]

Did you say the water's good? It looks it~

its_notbragging July 5 2010, 20:16:11 UTC
I'm glad!

[He rubs the back of his head. Then, any anxiety disappears]

Yeah! The water's great! You wanna come?

8D Does she ever! prettyincrime July 6 2010, 02:01:21 UTC
[She claps her hands in excitement, before grabbing his and running into the water. However, as per Miria's luck, she trips on something that probably didn't ever exist and sort of...faceplants into the water. A moment later, she resurfaces, and sits there, water just past her bellybutton, laughing and rubbing the salt form her eyes]

It's wonderful! It's so warm!!

[James is standing worriedly over her as she pops back up]

You're alright then?

[He laughs when she sits up]

I've never been in seawater this warm before.

I know, neither have I! Although now the water's warmer than the air.. [As she says this, she gets up and heads a little further in]

Come in deeper! It's so clear too..You can see everything!

[She goes to carry on,her hands clearing the stirring sand so that she can see the floor. However, she soon finds that, when her feet no longer touch the sea bed, she actually can't do anything other than flail a little and back track; Well done Miria. You now realise, in the ocean, that you can't swim.]

Don't go too deep!

[Especially since James doesn't have much faith in Miria's survival skills.]

I bet there's a reef out--

[He sees her struggling and catches her, keeping her head above water with his. Luckily James is a strong swimmer.]

Careful.

I think Isaac was her survival skill >_> prettyincrime July 6 2010, 16:53:37 UTC
..That's weird...I could have sworn I could swim...[looks thoughtful for a moment]

I guess in the middle of a big city, you don't really need to huh? [She then laughs at her own mistake to hide her embarrassment of having to be 'rescued']

"You could have sworn"?

[James looks dumbstruck]

Er, you shouldn't try to swim in the ocean unless you know what you're doing. It's really easy to drown out here.

Yes. Yes she <i>is</i> that ditzy..^_^;; prettyincrime July 7 2010, 02:24:30 UTC
[She flushes red]

W-well..I mean, I guess I always assumed I could..sorry, that was a little stupid of me..

[She finds her footing and goes to head back to shore(completely embarrassed by this point]

I know; I'm sorry - maybe I shouldn't have come out of my tent; I guess I'm a bit of a safety hazard [Nervous laugh]
