She made her way to his side and took a seat, and he would see instantly that he had all of her attention. He grinned at his little one and leaned over and playfully nuzzled against her head, before pulling back. It was hard not to lavish love and attention on his two perfect girls but he did have to keep a more serious attitude towards this lesson. He sighed softly, and turned his eyes to the sea. He pointed downward, making the gesture exaggerated so she couldn't miss it.

“Alright, little Rory” he said. Through the words where meaningless to her, he couldn't help but utter them. Perhaps he hoped that in doing so the familiarity of constant conversation would eventually clue her in to the secret of understanding languages.

“Here is what we are going to do. Can you see into the water?” he paused to scan along the surface, and pointed at movement, “there!” he said, and as he gestured above the ocean the fish caught the shadow of the movement and darted away. He turned his gaze to Aurora, grinning at his little daughter. Had she seen it? He nodded his head back to the water, gesturing for them both to continue looking. As he waited, another fish swam lazily beneath him, and he punched out a paw, clipping it from its side at the furthest point from him and flipping it from the water. It landed on the rocks beside him and he pinned it down with his paw, pausing to give Aurora a chance to examine it, before nipping its neck so that it stilled. He took another bite to expose the fleshy meat beneath, so she could smell and see it for the prey that offered lined their food cache. “take a bite” he said, gesturing for her to do so. He wanted to be certain she knew exactly what was going on, what they where doing here, and what the outcome of their fishing would look like – hoping to encourage enthusiasm for learning to hunt.
