1X1 with ~Griffin: Blossom and Maverick

"Better than ever," she assures him, licking his cheek to smooth the now ruffled fur from her nuzzle. "And you?"

[Maxella Roe]

"Like a kitten on a feather pillow." He stretched, so long and luxuriously that his back legs quivered. "I'm glad that you slept well.

[Weeping_Angel }Y{]

Blossom smiles and nuzzles his chest. "Well, today will be whatever we want it to be," she says softly. "Thought I would like to get some more practice swimming eventually."

[Maxella Roe]

"If you would like to practice your swimming more, then why not come with me to catch breakfast?" he offered with a smile. He usually ate a pleasant breakfast of minnows that got stuck in the tide pools after a series of big waves. They were delicious, and because of the small space, they were easier to catch.

[Weeping_Angel }Y{]

"Alright," she agrees, stretching everything from her toes to the tip of her tail as she stands. "You may have to explain how first though."

[Maxella Roe]

"It's pretty easy, actually." Maverick explained, walking toward the mouth of his cave. "The basics are, open your mouth wide, don't swallow, and try not to snuff one up your nose." He joked, coming out onto the ledge and breathing in the misty salt tainted breeze. It smelled wonderful.

[Weeping_Angel }Y{]

"Okay, that sounds easy enough," Blossom answers as she follows him.

[Maxella Roe]

He grew serious for a moment. "Well, you do have to be careful that you don't fall in. They may not seem like much on their own, but if you accidentally fall into a pool, it can be hard to get back up with all of them in your way." he warned carefully. "Usually, I just crouch beside a tide pool and catch them with my muzzle until I empty the pool enough to swim in it. They get pretty full when the tide comes in."

[Weeping_Angel }Y{]

"I bet," she says softly. The terror of thinking she had lost him was still very fresh in her mind, to the point where she saw him actually drowning even when he was safe right beside her. She presses her side to his for comfort. "I'll be careful," she promises. She don't want him to worry about her either.

[Maxella Roe]

He smiled, draping his tail over her back as he made his way down the rockface, closer to the area of tide pools. He could hear the ripples and splashings of the small minnows stuck in the tide pools. He crouched beside the water and licked his lips, swaying his tail in his eagerness to catch some breakfast. His stomach rumbled already as he waited. "Okay Blossom. This is how I do it..." he waited still.... Waited...
