Thread: Dragon Lagoon Beach

  1. #81
    At morning greetings Fiona seemed to be most pleased. She gained even more attention and seemed to revel in it. Miki approached alone and was greeted in return by Kou, who seemed to be aware of the lack of waking of Hikari and estimated a time on her actually getting up for the day. His tone was joking as if he was quite used to it, and he even made a joke about how she was the one most interested in swimming. "Hai hai, actually she said I shouldn't think about trying to wake her, and I took her at her word..." Miki said in a tone which was also joking. "To be fair, she did age like 5 years yesterday. I don't want to imagine what that could do to a girl~" Miki mentioned thoughtfully. At the very least, the girl had basically faced off against a whole dungeon alone in the previous day, and to Miki this entitled her to a bit of extra sleep. "Sou ka, so it seems like it's just us for a bit today... So, how do we feel about swimming today?" she said to Fiona as she reached out for her as well, giving her a happy pet. The black chick seemed to lavish in the extra attention and gave a firm movement of her head and body. "Kawaii!~ It seems like you're ready Fiona~" the lass said looking to Kou she was also ready to get this training going. As such she moved towards the water's edge with Fiona following behind. The little chicks first reactions to the water were about what one would expect. She ran out into the water a bit, then ran back. There was an intense look passing the creatures face as she seemed to try and make sense of this moment on her own. 'Alright, she's thinking. That's good.' Miki thought waiting to see what else would come from the initial exploration of the small black chick.

    "Sounds about like what I'd expect. Good choice not pushing it; she probably would have bashed your head in," Kou explained. In doing so, he rubbed the back of his head as if he could remember the sensation physically. Regardless, there was the matter of Fiona's training to address. Kou stepped out to the water's edge as Fiona tested the waters, and he was quite impressed by the discernment shown all of one day into the chick's lifespan. The male snickered again before taking another step forward, after which he dove into the open water. Only a few moments later, his head emerged with a sizable splash and a hair flip. "Whoo! Alright, let's see what we're workin' with!"

    "Hai hai, I'll make sure I don't try and wake her then~" said Miki happily. To be fair she knew better than to try and wake a sleeping teen girl, if only because she was one herself and knew how cherished comfortable sleep was. Moving right along, as she trailed into the water, she got to watch as their little Filolial started thinking about what swimming would be like, before Miki could do it herself, Kou would be found diving into the water. The black chick stared, as the man was underwater for a short while and then her eyes widened as he broke the surface once more. Miki watched Kou for the moment he came back up to the water's surface, and something about the hair flip and general look of this moment she found unfathomably pleasant. Though she didn't speak on it. When she looked down by her ankles, Fiona was flapping excitedly as if she'd figured out something massive just by watching. Her excited little flaps would turn into adventure as she headed out further into the water. "Sou ka, nice job... Fiona!~ Gambatte!~" she said encouraging the small creature. Miki would in the meantime abandon her jacket and also adventure further out into the water.

    And as she did this, Fiona was trying to make it to Kou. Each little movement across the water and flaps of her wings took her closer and closer. Eventually she got the hang of being atop the water a bit and used the speed of her wing flaps to carry her towards Kou were she aimed to perch upon his shoulder when she reached him. Ruffling her feathers and seeming to be a bit proud of herself.

    Kou used the time after his dive to watch Fiona's progression in her entry to swimming. The chick's brain processed things quickly enough that she was soon hopping into the water, using her wings to carry her across the surface on a journey toward where Kou stopped. Once there, the young Filolial perched atop the lad's shoulder as she had done on the previous day, and the reaction from Kou was the same petting finger he'd used so frequently thus far. "Ii ne! That's the kind of growth speed I wanted to see!" he cheered. Without further ado, Kou took a deep breath and held it, then immediately submerged himself in the water. Whether Fiona was left on the water's surface or not after this, he couldn't have the chick resting on his shoulder for too long without making more progress.

    Fiona received more attention after reaching Kou this time. That same petting mechanism seemed to be enough to spur her into action. Strangely she wasn't allowed to simply rest with this notion. In fact, soon after she landed and was praised, Kou dove under water, leaving the little black chick atop the water looking a bit confused. She looked left and right but didn't find Kou, only Miki as she made her approach. This made her look at the blonde strangely, her chest puffing up and her wings flapping as she tried to convey her feelings at this random situation. Miki smiled at the little bird and motioned to herself. "Mite! You can do it!~" she said taking a deep breath and diving beneath the surface of the water as well. The little chick was left up top by herself and would follow along cautiously. First she stuck her head in with her eyes closed. Seeing nothing she came back up. The water rolled off her head and back and she managed to look the tiniest bit confused. As such, she tried it again, this time with her eyes open. She saw Miki and Kou beneath the water and began using her legs to force herself deeper until she reached them. Upon getting to one or both of them, she would flap her wings about a bit, getting a feel for movement beneath the water's surface. All the while Miki watched with a bit of pride in her visage. It was astonishing to her that something which had just been an egg in the previous day, was now thinking on its own and learning a new skill.

    Kou remained underwater, eyes open. From his place beneath the surface, he could see Fiona, as well as Miki, above. Distracted, he had a lingering gaze on the blonde for several seconds, until she inevitably descended as well. He then watched and waited to see if Fiona would join them, and lo, the Filolial chick did exactly that in a matter of moments. Kou nodded his approval to the chick during her approach, and began swimming around underwater in a circle. Said circle was one he swam in while rising until he reached the surface again, where he began moving toward the riptides not too far from their current location.

    Fiona seemed to take the approval of her adventure very well. As Kou began swimming around in circles so did Miki, both of them working towards a rise back to the surface. Their trainee for the day seemed to watch this all with a determined look and also began to circle her way back up to the surface. Miki broke the water tossing her hair back and out of her face, in time to witness Fiona break the water at maximum speed popping out a couple of feet up in the air looking all too satisfied as she fell back towards the water's surface only to land with a gentle plop just a little below the surface. This would cause Miki to giggle. "Ara ara, that's a little too much, no?" she asked of the little bird as it popped back up and she rubbed the top of its head gently. Overall their particular pet seemed to run on affection and as Kou began swimming closer to the riptides, Miki did the same with a gentle back stroke in a manner most casual. "Sugoi! She's learning so fast!~" Miki commented pleasantly pleased by the black chick's progress. In the meantime, Fiona floated atop the surface using her wings to propel her body forwards keeping up with the leisurely strokes of Miki with ease, chirping happily along the way. 'Hm, I suppose they did say Filolials like to work, maybe they think of stuff like this as work and that's why they're easy to train?' Miki thought absently, still the smile on her face just didn't seem to go away, and she was more than content to continue their combined work to help this along.

    Kou grew closer and closer to one of many riptides, until he was just outside of its affected area. Fiona was indeed developing with great quickness, and Kou couldn't have been more pleased with the progress. As the Filolial grew closer to him, he became more prepared to make an additional movement. Miki was encroaching upon his location as well, warranting a nod in her direction first and foremost. "Alright... next move~" he said, following the statement by swimming directly into the riptide. Kou relinquished control right away, letting himself be tossed about by the rapid water as it carried him down and around. "Haha! It's like a water park; it's awesome!"

    Soon enough, Miki also reached a riptide, having received a nod from Kou she knew exactly the sort of thing that would be happening next. All the while, Fiona seemed to be watching and waiting for the next big challenge. And what a challenge it was. Miki soon threw herself into the riptide also relinquishing control of her physical body, allowing herself to float around and down giving only a gentle nod to their pet bird. "Whoa!! This is pretty fun!~" she chimed as she disappeared as well. Fiona looked with cutting gaze, she was not to be left behind in such a situation. She swam towards the riptide finding it to be pulling her in. At first, she resisted a bit, trying to swim away... but having seen the smiles on the faces of her parental figures... she made the decision that she could simply go with it. Her tiny bird body was soon flung into the fray as well, and she was pulled down with the current of the riptide flapping her little wings to carry her further beyond.

    Around and around the members of this group went individually. As the first to enter the riptide, Kou became the first to exit far below the surface. He was flung closer to their starting point, which was about where he emerged after the wild ride he had. Another splash occurred as his head and upper torso erupted from the water, and he proceeded to look around and await the appearance of the other two. "Wow, that's great! She's gonna be jealous when she finds out how much fun everything was without her~" the lad spoke to himself, specifically in reference to the demi-human who remained asleep in the tent.
