Shawn sat, legs outstretched and robes asunder; gazin out over the ocean. He always enjoyed how it seemed endless. He found himself drifting to and from reality; his conciousness ebbing as the waves. He felt a sliht chill across his bare chest, and instinctivly pawed at the wine-red birthmark across his shoulder. Its not that, its the ocean air, idiot His subconciousu said to him as he reached for his discarded robes.

Jean had been for some time walking along the beach, he'd seen no one and when he saw a figure in the distance he paused. He didn't know who it was, and he'd had trouble with that sort of thing before. Finding less friendship in the unknown and more getting into trouble. He walked closer, the bottoms of his pants wet as they dragged through the small layer of surf, his shoes discarded some ways back. He approached slow, trying to not to appear that he'd noticed the figure which he could now see was a man. He stopped, he hated this sort of thing, fearing that it would happen again- it felt so weak, and he hated that though it was a common feeling. He walked a bit more, the waves coming up and licking the bottoms of his hem.

As Shawn pulled on his robes, buttonin only the top two buttons (as to hide his scar) )ooc: scar, not brthmark, will fix in aminute(--He felt a slight twine in the back of his head. A twinge he kneweall to well. "No need to hide, i don't bite." He chuckled to the air around him. No, he wasn't a telepath; but being of an untrusting nature; he developed a keen sense for being watched. As he turned he saw a frightened looking kinrick inching his way towards him. "Hi." He smiled warmly.

"Oh hi." Jean replied quickly. "I wasn't hiding... who was hiding?" He added quickly, not wanting to seem dumb, which he resolved after he wasn't doing very well. He walked a bit closer. "Really, I wasn't..." He added again, it was hopeless. He sighed. "Nice day its been huh?" He frowned at his own remark, it was so generic and wasn't helping him. "I've just not had the best of luck with people on the beach." he said finally, "I wasn't hiding, just trying to not draw attention." He nodded to himself, the idea seemed valid. "It isn't something you'd understand, you're not..." He stopped. "Well nevermind."

"not what?"he smiled, taking a careful step towards the boy. Before taking another step he decided against it an dturned towards the ocean to his left. He stretched and sighly audible. "Isn't it beautiful? Its endlessness always leaves me speechless." he said softly, almost in awe.

Jean turned, "It really is." He smiled, "Its why I love walking out here, beats most anything within the castle." He stared out at the water as the waves rose and fell, it was calming. He stepped closer to the water, waiting for it to reach his feet, a slight shiver overcame him but he smiled and stood there waiting for it to happen again. His feet sunk into the wet sand, and as he tried to step back he fell-feet still firm in the wet shoreline. "ah--" He said landing in the sand, more of his pants and some of his shirt wet now. "Oh great..." he said laughing at himself. "They're going to kill me for walking in the castle like this.

Shawn chuckled slightly and looked at the boy's clothes momentarily. "Would you like to go for a ride? It'll be a fast way to dry those off." He smiled.

"A ride?" He turned his head looking at him, "What?" He asked as he stood up wiping off the sand that he could.

Shawn smiled and raised his hand to his mouth. He whistled loudly and stood there smiling. Moments later his broom flew into site from the aeridorn dormitory and floated at his side. "A ride. Over the ocean. I always end these beach visits with one. Makes the endlessness a bit more palpable." He smiled and settled himsself on the broom.

Jean looked at him for a moment, observing his continence. It was an odd thing to offer someone you'd just met a ride without even asking their name. He wondered what the Aeridorn's aim was, he really wasn't sure of it and wondered if he could really consider it a smart move. Yet, somehow he felt a trust, and thought as he'd seen with Ian his first impression was often off kilter, he resolved to go. "Alright..." he said in a nervous tone, trying to cover it with a small smile.

Shawn smiled. "Terrific, hop on."He helped the kinrick onto the broomand turned haflway. "Oh, I'm Shawn, by th eway." He smiled and kicked off; not waiting for a response. Over the gush of air, he hollared back, "Hold on Kinrick; I have a bit of an iron handle; as they say." he chuckled and pushed the broom to its limits. Within mere minutes they were soaring away from land.

Jean near fell, he remembered why he never flew himself- because he was bad at it, and because it was kind of scary - "Sh~t!" He yelled falling forward into the Aeridorn in front of him. He tried to stable himself, looking away. "Sorry. Just, lost balance." He didn't look back, watching the sky and water fly past.

Within minutes they were completely surrounded by water. Shawn slowed the broom to a stop and smiled. Repositioning himself carefully he turned just to where he could see the knirick. "See what i mean? Out here...the endlessness. You can feel it more than see it. Because you've become part of it." He smiled and glanced down at the boy's pants. "Looks lke you're still a little damp, thoug." He chuckled. He gazed out over the vast array of water and smiled contently.

"It'll be fine, I'm sure." He then sat quietly, this was so abnormal he really couldn't think of the proper thing to do. Sitting there with nothing to say, and no way to do anything but sit there he began to think about exactly what he was doing there. He began to wonder if it was the best idea, and in questioning it filled his head with the possibility that it wasn't. He didn't make eye contact, his eyes firm on the horizon now.

"Well kinrick." Shawn sighed. "Sun'll be setting soon. The eastern sky is darkening. I guess we sholud get you back." He smiled and repositioned properly on the broom. "But first to dry you off. YOu might want to hold on."He chuckled. "Oh, and don't look down." He sad before beginning an inverted nose-dive into the sky, through the clouds. He laughed whole-heartedly as they soared into th warm above the clouds. He evened out and flew at a steady pace for a bit, ensuring they'd both dry well, before pullnig his broom down into a correct nosedive--heading straight for the castle. After a bit of playful dodgin and wweaving, he landed n front of the castle, smiling. "Sorry if it was ab it bumpy. I enjoy flying a bit too muc hat times." He laughhed at himsself as he helped the boy off the broom before dismounting himself.
