Cyrwrynn was swimming around enjoying the waves upon the surface. She hadn't come up here in quite a while and was re-experiencing surfing. The serpent slid herself along another gathering whitecap as it started to crest upon itself. Racing down towards the beach she laughed in delight before disappearing into the water head over tail and swirling back down to the depths for another round.

Zuriel was rather bored with just about everything. He had grazed for a while just to pass the time but the kelp was no longer appetizing. He swam away, towards the surface, merely to see if there was anything interesting. As he got closer he saw a very peculiar sight. He stared as a grey mer with the rather odd tail as it left the surface swirled deeper into the water. Unable to sate his curiousity he swam closer.
"Excuse me, but what exactly are you doing?"

Caught off guard, the serpent almost flipped the wrong way and would have ended up head first in a growth of kelp. Luckily she veered off to the side before any actual harm was done. "Whatta do ya mean 'What am I doing?' What's it look like?" She turned to spot the multi-coloured stallion and scrunched up her nose. "I'm surfing, that's what I'm doing." With a laugh she flung herself onto the next wave that had been coming in and rode it until the shallows before flipping back around and rejoining him. "See! It's an aweful load of fun!"

Zuriel watched her as she surfed, his curiousity practically eating him alive. "Well that does look like fun, if you don't mind I think I'd like to try it as well." He swam up and caught the wave as he'd seen her do, riding it as it went to the shallows. As he drew closer to the shore he twisted, trying to remember what she'd done. But he had waited to long and in the process of flipping he hit the sandy bottom with his nose, stunning him a bit.

Peals of laughter followed the stallions attempt of surfing. He just looked so funny to the serpent as he crashed into the sandy bottom. "No silly, you are supposed to twist and flick away with your tail, not your head." Grabbing the next wave, Cyr sped into the beach and smoothly glided off the wave, twisting at the last moment and pushing off the ocean floor in one continuous moment. It was obvious she moved a little different than most as her sinuous body curls around as if it was double jointed. It was easy to see how she was able to twist to effortlessly. "See..." she added when she returned to where he was, "It's not that hard, try again."

Zuriel waited a moment for his head to clear and watched the graceful serpent curiously. It did seem simple when she did it. At her encouragement he went up again and caught another wave. This time he flicked a tad bit earlier and made it all the way around, though he still scraped his tail against the sand it was a large improvement on his first attempt. He swam up to her grinning "I think I'm getting this!"

"There ya go!" Cyrwrynn cheered him on as she watched the mer swing around for the second time. Taking her place in time for the next wave she caught it at the last minute and sailed past him. Feeling the force of the wave pick her up, Cyr flicked her tail from side to side, adding to her speed. Racing forward, the serpent rode the white cap into shore and slipped off it. Cyrwrynn laughed as she came back towards the stallion, her heart beating fast with the exhilaration. "I could do this all day." She was very happy that the barrier had finally come down. The surface was a very interesting place to hang out.

"I can see why!" He answered her, grinning. It was hard not not be uneffected by the good-natured cheer in the activity. He raced up to the surface to catch a wave. This wave was slightly larger than the others he had ridden and the rush he felt as he zoomed towards the shore was unlike anything else he had felt. He timed his exit and flipped back into the water. He approached the mare slowly, savoring the new sport. "So tell me Miss, can it get any better than this?"

""Sure it can..." Cyrwrynn came back after another run where she had narrowly missed the beach, waiting too long before hopping off the wave. "One day you need to try surfing when there is a storm brewing. The waves start out so far from the sandy beach and they come rushing in all 'WHOOOSH! and stuff." She giggled as she remembered one time where she had almost been slammed against a rocky outcropping. "It can get pretty hair-raising and ya have to be careful but man... what a ride!" Cyr spun around in a circle energetically before deciding whether she wanted to go in again. "I'd do this all day if I could but there is food to be eaten... and sleep I guess."

Zuriel nodded "that does sound pretty exciting." His stomach growled angrily at him. He glanced down "well now that you mention food I guess I haven't taken the time to graze for a while...but I could at least do this one more time." He swam up to the surface, determined to make this the best ride that he could. He picked a perfect wave and rode it towards the shore. He left the wave at the right time, twisting awkwardly a little but managing to not hit anything or make an utter fool of himself, pretty good for him.

Food..? Drat... Cyrwrynn couldn't think of any where close for good things to eat. She spun around in a circle and put her front hooves onto a large coil of her tail. With her fins not moving anymore she slowly started sinking to the sandy bottom landing there with a soft muted thud. "Ummm... well we could go eat something... but I have no clue where. Unless you have a place we can go to get some nice tasty grub?" She coiled around one of the rocks as she thought about places where she could remember eating the better grasses of the sea.

Zuriel thought for a moment. There are those kelp forests not too far, though I could hardly consider those all that tasty. Hm... "A little while that way" he pointed away from the shore "should be a decent grazing place. Its not the best but its pretty good, plenty of grasses there to choose from. The only problem is it'll take us a little bit to get there."

"Ooooooh! I like that idea, lets check it out!" Cyrwrynn swam in a circle before staring off in the direction he had pointed. In a moment she was back with a grin. "Hmmm, I think I shall let you lead, who knows how far it is really... And anyways we might come across a monster or something." The serpent coiled her tail around her and gave a look as if she was scared. "Though I think any monster would be afraid of you. You can be my knight in shining armor..." Cyr giggled before pausing in her thought. "But being the princess is boring... I'd much prefer to be the fire breathing dragon."

Zuriel stared at her and then chuckled. "I doubt you would need much rescuing m'lady, I think you could take care of yourself." He smiled at her, "But I will try to defend you if a scary monster does come along." He because swimming in the direction that he had pointed in. "And to top it all off I don't even need armor to be shiny." He snorted to himself as the idea passed through his mind.

"Extra shiny then? I mean what else is armor for?" Cyrwrynn pondered upon that as she followed his tail. Though spotting his tail she though about how different her's and his looked. He had a fin on the back of his and swam with a more up and down motion, like most whales and dolphins she had seen while she moved her whole body from side to side to press against the water. She wondered if that was because her tail was longer... and didn't have the fins that he did. Maybe he was just a different breed that her, she was sure she had normal looking parents though thank goodness she didn't have those four-legged parents like she had spotted on the surface one day, those were really weird. Lost in her musings she wasn't paying attention to where they were going and trusted him to take her the right way.
