fandomhigh | Ungulate Yoga, Tuesday, period 1

Duke was feeling much better after getting a good night's sleep. And doing some meditation that morning with the incense he'd gotten on the mainland helped, too. It'd helped so much, in fact, that when he got to his yoga class that morning and discovered the large above water pool that had been set up, he could only laugh.

"Porpoises," he said, when one of the pair of animals in the water swam up to greet him. "You don't even have feet," he told it, patting its little rounded face. "How the hell are you an ungulate?"

The porpoise spat a stream of water at him, and he laughed again.

When the students arrived, they were offered a set of pool noodles. "Hope no one minds getting wet," Duke called from where he was perched on the far edge of the pool. "Or is afraid of small whales. Today we're doing some aqua yoga. And, uh, careful around our new friends, here. They're not really meant to be kept in captivity. Hopefully they'll be released right after class, and have an exciting story to tell all their porpoise friends."
