Whatca Ya Doin'?

The young Carpathius boy fills in the name of the sword and the purple girl offers him a wide smile. Turning with the blue pup, Andy walks with him, watching the way he carries his stick sword. The air is filled with signs of the magical autumn that have gripped the land and she allows her pale blue gaze to roam over it all.  The pup then offers his name and she turns to look at him while offering a wide grin. Suddenly, the smell of the ocean hits the girl right between her eyes and she turns to watch the golden sandy beach come into view.

The chilly wind picks up, bringing the salty brine of the ocean to the pups. A smile appears on her purple lips as Thorn eagerly exclaims about the beach before jogging down to the golden sand and telling her about finding stuff. Andy follows after him, marveling more at the sand than the ocean itself. She breathes out, saying the word, “Wow” as she exhales. Gently she places her paws on the sand, tilting her head at how different it feels from the sand of her home beach. Would that mean that the water isn’t cold as well?

Turning her gaze to Thorn, Andy smiles and says, “This is so cool! We have a beach back home but it is nothing like this. Ours is black and feels… different. I don’t know how to explain it. Uh, they feel rougher.” Turning her paw, the purple girl scoops up some of the golden granules and lifts them, spreading her toes to allow the sand to fall between them and back down to the beach. The girl watches them with great interest and, as the last of the sand leaves her paw, an idea sparks to life.

Rounding on Thorn, excitement shining brightly in her eyes, Andy says, “Thorn! Have you ever raced on the beach?” Eyebrows left as looks to him, tail wagging as she wonders if he wants to race out here.
