[he feels Mikleo's fingers snag on his ankle briefly, but it's not strong enough to pull him back; Mikleo crawls spluttering back onto the beach after him, probably to the amusement of the watching seals.]

I'll--I'll get you for that later.

[imsorey]

[the seals are a good peanut gallery, especially since they keep coming closer to sniff for more food]

If you tell me that I'm just going to keep my guard up.

[oneandmikleonly]

May I remind you that we're surrounded by water. Literally in my element -- oh, give me another fish.

[imsorey]

It'll be a challenge for both of us, then.

[handing over another fish]

[oneandmikleonly]

I'll take a handicap if you want me to.

[slowly tempting another seal over with it, to see if he can get it to bub onto Sorey's lap]

[imsorey]

[he's just gonna give it a big hug if it gets that close to him]

I'll have to think about it. I don't want you complaining when you lose.

[oneandmikleonly]

When, huh? Aren't we feeling confident today.

[sorey that is a WILD ANIMAL]

[imsorey]

[YEAH IT'S FINE, IT'S NOT A HELLION OR SOMETHING. if it didn't want a hug it wouldn't be practically climbing into his lap for a fish]

We did find seals, so I think luck's on my side today. Nothing wrong with a little confidence after this, right?

[oneandmikleonly]

Juuust don't overdo it too much.

[successfully gets the seal to climb up onto Sorey's legs to get the fish >D]

[imsorey]

[laughing and halfheartedly trying to push it off]

I haven't overdone anything yet! It'll be fine.

[oneandmikleonly]

[seals are really heavy, he's trapped]

Are you sure?

[imsorey]

[he...he sure is.]

Of course. Have a little faith here.

[it's not that convincing with a seal on top of him but he's confident enough in it]

[oneandmikleonly]

[considers this tableau of Sorey and seal, very thoughtfully]

Hey, put your arm out for a second. On the sand.

[imsorey]

This isn't some kind of trick, is it?

[but he does it anyways]

[oneandmikleonly]

[lays down on the sand and pillows his head on it, looking very satisfied

now Sorey's double trapped]

[imsorey]

[IT WAS A TRICK!!!!]

Awwww, come on!

[oneandmikleonly]

Well, this is comfortable.

[imsorey]

At the cost of my arm, maybe.

[...getting comfortable until the seal decides to move]

[oneandmikleonly]

It's not that bad, surely.

[imsorey]

[trying to keep up the pout, but a smile slips onto his face despite his efforts]

Well...Aside from the crushing weight it's pretty comfortable.

[oneandmikleonly]

...tell me if you actually need to get the weight off and I'll lure Mr. Seal here away somehow. I don't actually want you to never feel your legs again.

[imsorey]

It's fine for now. It's heavy, but not so heavy that it's going to crush me completely.

You just might have to carry me back to the base.

[oneandmikleonly]

--I could manage.

[imsorey]

Yeah? I'm in your capable hands then.

[oneandmikleonly]

It's not like I haven't done it before. On land. At least you'll be lighter in the ocean.
