fandomhigh | All Things Beach- Monday- 1st period

The class had gotten an email this morning telling them to meet at the beach, and to wear beach-appropriate things, and also a warning that there was sand that you didn't want in your shoes ~~since it's coarse and gets everywhere~~.

"Morning!" Kitty greeted them. "My name's Kitty Pryde-Barton, you can call me pretty much any of those names, I don't really care. In this class, if you can even call it that, we're going to do beach things. We'll be meeting out here unless the weather's bad, in which case you'll have a message telling you to go to the Danger Shop, and you can wear whatever makes you feel comfortable getting in the water, even if we're not getting in there every week. I know some of you, and not others, so why don't we start by going around and saying who you are and if there's anything you're hoping to get to in the next six weeks. Oh! And if there's something you can't do, like swimming, you should probably let me know but you can do that after class if you want. Okay, let's start here, and then we'll move on to today's activity."

The level of excitement radiating off of Sidon was palpable, as his day was starting out with two of his favorite things: the beach and introductions.

"I am Sidon!" He announced eagerly, barely able to contain the thrill that was his great fist pump across his chest, this brilliant smile that caught so well in the sun to make his sharp grin sparkle. "The Zora Prince!"

Nope. Never getting old, that.

"I have spent my entire life around water," hello, understatement of the century, "so I believe my adviser decided to give me this class as a bit of a treat, since I cannot imagine he thought there would be a vast wealth of new things for me to discover. Still, I am quite excited, as I'm sure I will learn much about the culture that surrounds the beach on this particular world, and I am intrigued to discover how it might different from my own world."

And, though he didn't add this out loud, he was quite please to see that Kitty Pryde-Barton did not have a strict policy about swim trunks, unlike other places on the island, Onsen.

"Beach culture like...." she checked.

"Well," said Sidon, "for example, back home, there are the lizalfos and the Lurelin villagers. The lizalfo make their homes all over Hyrule, no matter the climate, so it is no surprise that they would also find themselves acclimated to the beach, but the ocean where I am from is such a dangerous and mysterious thing that not even many Zora like to go too near it." He, of course, went there often and reveled in the excitement. "The Lurelin villagers, however, are an exception, with a lovely little village where they have made a culture out of fishing and sailing in those tumultuous waters."

"Okay... well, I don't know that we get that in depth over here, but I can see what we can explain," Kitty said.

"I am but here to learn and experience more of the wonderful things that Fandom High School has to offer me," said Sidon, placing a humble hand to his chest. "I have confidence that everything you wish to teach me will do nothing but enrich my understanding and improve my life in the most wonderful ways, Kitty Pryde-Barton! It will be magnificent!"
