"Oh, yes. That magic sword trick. Can you actually use the sword, or is it just for show?"

"A dangerous combonation. Do you pull it out regularly or just when you happen across a mermaid relaxing?" Naida smiled teasingly at the land pony.

He shrugged. "Nothing to forgive. I would have behaved the same way if the circumstance were switched. Well..." he flashed a grin. "Maybe not - if I'd seen a cute girl coming down the beach I might have tried saying Hi first..."

"Not all of it. Only enough to know that you were talking about a girl and a dragon. Why I have no clue. Nor do I care to know." She stretched out again and pulled herself up on the beach. "But you seem to know your way around ladies. You shouldn't have a problem with them."

"Today must not have been the first time, then, or you wouldn't have called me a fish. I'm a mermaid. I get the best of both worlds, and I smell better than a fish."
