All Things Beach- Monday- 1st period

[throughaphase]

Today the class was notified that they'd be taking a portal, and that they should wear beach-appropriate clothes, if not necessarily bathing suits, because that might be weird to portal in. Kitty herself was in shorts and a loose t-shirt with sandals that she could take off.

"Hey, guys," she greeted them. "Today, we're taking Norman's suggestion and checking out some tide pools, because I wanted to. We could do that in the Danger Shop, oooor we could head to California for the class period and you can see it for real. If you don't know what a tide pool is, the ocean cuts little pools into the shore, which animals then live in. When the tide is low, you can really see what kind of different creatures are in there. I have a guide here if anyone wants to actually know what they're looking at. Now, when we get there, do not touch anything you find. They're living animals, and some of them have things like spines or stinging cells. Not enough to really hurt, but they're there for a reason. So unless anyone has any questions, let's go."

And then they were off, to check out a tide pool for real.

You'd think an amphibious person who'd spent the last 75 years in and around various forms of water and marine life wouldn't be this excited about a tide pool, but, when it came to Sidon, you'd think wrong. Of course he'd seen a million tide pools in his life; of course he was just as excited about this one as if it had been his very first time. After all, this one was mildly different in a lot of minute little details, but those little details made all the difference!

Honestly, the hardest part was not touching the animals because all Sidon could see were potential watery friends!
