"Cuz! I don't wanna be piled on," Topanga pouted.
Zulimar smiled and kissed her daughter on the forehead. "They're all so precious," she told Candramus, thoroughly pleased with their children.

Jala snorted and scooted off of his sister. "Spoil sport..."
"I am so very glad that they took after their mother." Candramus moved so that he could wrap his arms around Zulimar. "We'll have to teach this one how to swim if she wants to spend so much time in the water."
Umiko frowned, "I don't want to swim."

Jamarion rolled off when Jala moved.
Topanga grinned and pounced onto Jala.
"You don't have to swim if you don't want to," Zulimar assured Umiko. "But if you don't learn how to swim, you can't come in the water without me."

"Hey! Not fair!"
Umiko frowned, "I'll learn to swim then..."
"That's my girl." Candramus smiled and ruffled her hair.

Topanga giggled.
"I wanna learn to swim, too," Jamarion pouted.
"I'll teach all of you to swim if you like," Zulimar smiled.

"I think it is a wise idea for all of you to learn to swim." Candramus nodded firmly, "I do not think drowning is something I want to see happen."
"Drow-ning..." Jala enunciated the syllables. "What's that?"

"It's something very unpleasant that happens if you spend too much time in the water without knowing how to swim."

"Unpleasant? What's that?"
"Would you stop asking so many questions?" Umiko snorted. "It's not fun."
Candramus laughed, "There's nothing wrong with asking questions, Umiko. It is the only way one can learn about the things and events around them."

Zulimar nodded in agreement with her mate. "Well, asking questions and experiencing things for yourself. But some things you shouldn't have to experience."

"Like drow-ning," Umiko offered.
"Of course like drowning silly head!"

"I am glad to see that our most recent lesson has sunken into your mind, Umiko. Perhaps you will be more cautious as you grow."
Jala crinkled up his nose. "Caught-Shis?"

"You'll have to explain that one, Candramus. It's not a word I'm very good with."
Bored, Jamarion started splashing in the shallows.

"Using your brother as an example, it's exactly what he is not being. He is in the water without your mother or I, and has a good chance of drowning. Being cautious means that you are alert and mindful of the dangers and hazards around you, as well as the risks a situation presents and that you do your best to avoid ending up in trouble."
"That was long..."

"Yes it was," Zulimar nodded sagely.
"So... caushish is boring?"
