Shimmering Sands fell in love over appalachain wine

It did suck at first, but Lionel was right. As the saltwater seeped into his fur and ensconced his skin, he found that it really wasn't as bad as he had originally thought it was. Cold, yes, but certainly not the worst feeling in the entire world. In fact, he rather enjoyed the feeling.

Until Lionel leaped at him and shoved him fully under the surface.

He struggled to get up but once he did, he startled himself by laughing. No malice or upset by the surprise attack, but rather... he was having fun. The golden boy let out a playful growl and shook the water from his ears before turning to face his aggressor. "You're gonna pay for that," he rumbled, before propelling himself forward with the aim of dragging the other boy beneath the surface alongside himself.
