It was all smiles and jokes as Ike teased him about his coughing and sputtering. Of course Remus hit her back with an amusing self depreciating retort. He was trying so hard to be a fish, but.. "You don’t make a very good fish.” She chuckled along with him brightly. It felt so good to let go of it all, as they laughed together the weight of the world seemed to lift from her thin shoulders. Just to be replaced with Remus’ heavy grasp. He bound towards her and in a flying tackle wrapped his arms around her and sent them both into the ocean surf.
There was no countering the ocean’s force and they were pulled apart, with both wolves popping up again after the wave took them. Ike’s dual toned eyes found the boy’s dark gaze, care free and jovial. Having fun, racing, swimming with him, was so good for her young heart. She lost so much of her innocence the last year, part of it was growing up, but a lot of it was from her father leaving. Some of it was the weight of her position in the pack on her. She had great expectations to live up to and that didn’t weigh lightly on her.
They played in the ocean until the sun started to fall, and Shuriken could feel the exhaustion of a long day on her body and her limbs when he led her out. Remus had been directing her all day, and part of her was relieved to have direction. She was given more and more responsibility recently, having someone else making decisions also helped her relax. Time for a snack and some dry fur. She shook herself, much the same as Remus did.
He led her towards his picnic area, revealing his prepared meal. A few little meats and berries ready for her as he flopped onto the fur he had prepared earlier. Like he didn’t have a care in the world. Ike tried to emulate hip, and flopped onto her belly in front of her dinner. "It’s plenty,” she assured him quite eager for the meal after such a time in the ocean. She then proceeded to scarf down the whole meal without inhaling. It was probably the best thing she had ever tasted. "Or maybe just a snack.” She chuckled, a little embarrassed at her appetite.
