[She's in shorts and a tank top as she visits the ocean today. It's a beautiful sight, and all the more beautiful because of the relief that came this morning. As she walks towards the water, she calls out to Yu, a smile on her face.]
No, not always, but it's not too warm outside of the summer months, either. Did you like spending time there?
[ Yu will walk a few steps further out into the surf -- only to jump back with a sharp, startled laugh when the ocean immediately does as the ocean to and hits him with a higher wave than he was expecting. For someone so normally quiet, it's an unusual bark of sound, brought about by sincere surprise. ]
[Either way, she can't help but give a small smile as she watches the wave hit him, even if she's close enough that it's not a moment before it hits her, too.]
Hope you weren't too attached to your clothes staying dry.
[ Yu is hopping back out of the surf, laughing and laughing. It's just ... a relief, to feel like he can laugh. Somehow Zoe helps him feel that way -- like there are things here worth smiling and laughing for. ]
Not really, [ he'll chuckle, shaking his head as he draws level with her again. ] That said, I'm not exactly planning to go swimming fully dressed. [ ... musing: ] I already did that once.

It's nice, isn't it?

[ He'll turn when she calls out, his face crinkling into a warm smile when he sees her. ]
Come join me.
[ The water's fine! ]

Have you ever been to the ocean before?
no subject
A few times. My friends and I would go, when it was warm enough. You?

[She nods.]
We don't live too far from the coast... My parents would rent a beach house during summer vacations sometimes.

[It's curious but casual; she'll leave it up to him if he wants to give more details.]
Either way, I bet you were freezing afterwards.

I'm not sure I could call it "cool." It's really something, alright. At least the bunnies were pretty cute.
