[ Day 1];What do your catnips do in the summer sun? What’s their favorite summer activity?

Aphrodite comes from a family that isn't exactly used to being near the beaches. Her family was always built for the cold of the winter season, and often simply didn't have the qualifications for anything else than trudging out in the snow and building snow sculptures as their idea of fun. Aphrodite however, seems to have broken from that pattern recently in the summer. With her scarf holding her ears back like a bandana, in the summer, Aphrodite loves to play in the sand and by the beach. Well, play is a very loose term, but it's certainly fun for her. It's a type of matchmaking where she personally tries to give good luck to those on the beach needing someone to adore them.

First, she listens to the problems someone has with love, and puts them into a certain category of their problems. They might think something about them makes them impossible to love, they may think that someone who they love will never love them back, and some may even think that someone they do not like back loves them. She then marks a sigil, or a magical symbol, down in the sand, sometimes small, sometimes large. And as the magic is brought to life with these symbols in the sand, they stay alive. No matter how far they are washed out to sea, their magic still exists, and Aphrodite hopes that their influence will assist those who she has heard the troubles of.

prompt; what does your catnip do in the summer sun? what’s their favorite summer activity?  catnip; maude

maude, as you may have guessed, is more of a winter catnip, who prefers the snow to the blistering sun. however, she tends to put her patterned beanies away and place her white sunhat on once a beach is mentioned. she loves the rolling waves, the gentle sink of paws into wet sand and the sticky residue from iced treats to cool your body down. often you can find her collecting wave-worn seashells, gathering them all up in her hat, allowing her scalp to burn. (she will complain heartily later, even if the shells she collected were pretty)
if she isn't at the beach, maude is busy working at a local beachside takeaway shop, which specialises in old-fashioned milkshakes and quality fish and chips. see, maude loves the idea of retro summers, and the shop has that exact feeling to it. it was love at first sight, really, and maude had visited the shop so much so that she was hailed a "regular" by the owner, even if half the time she never bought anything. she's happy to work there though; meeting all the holiday-goers is an enriching experience and she has had many an inspiration come from listening to guests' stories.
when the day is done, she will catch the bus home to her tiny cottage, surrounded by trees and ivy growth, and write about her findings in a leather-bound book, gifted to her by a distant friend.
this ritual continues for the rest of the summer, with maude silently counting down the days until winter once more.
