Fifth entry: The beach
[The first sound Elizabeth woke to was a rather unusual one. Climbing out of bed and dressing herself, the first thing she notices is that Embry is gone. She pauses for thought, before continuing towards the door of her room. She steps out...The light hurts her eyes, but as she adjusts, she realises she's actually outside, her now bare feet sunk in hot sand. Going to turn back, all that awaits her is a tent...]
What on Earth..??
[She then realises what she's wearing...or rather, what she would never even dream of wearing in public..ever. Just a dark red two piece swimming costume, she immediatly covers herself with her arms and runs back to her tent, sitting on the 'bed' and holding her head in her hands]
This cannot be real...it cannot....What in Gods name am I wearing? I can't possibly walk around like this!
[Heading to one of the trunks in the corner of the tent, she begins sifting through the contents]
These aren't mine! What is...[pulling out a Tye-dyed red-pink sarong, she holds it up to the light, trying to work out what it is..]

Oh, Edward! What're you wearing on your face...?

This? Edward's snorkel?

Do you know how we got here, Ed?
Mommy!Elizabeth is adorable.
[She removes the snorkel bit and shows it to Elizabet]
See, Edward breathes in here
[Points to the mouth part]
And then air comes in from here, 'cause it stays out of the water.
[She points to the tube part]
And then Edward's goggles
[She taps her goggles]
Let Edward see underwater!!
aaw! This post made me squeal, Ed's so cute!
I see! That's certainly very clever - Where I'm from, we didn't have anything like this; I've never even been to a beach before, well, not in leisure anyway..
:3 These two are awesome together
Never ever been to the beach? Edward will help!!
[She grabs Elizabeth's wrist and pulls at it, trying to get her back out onto the beach.]
I know! ^^~<3
Perhaps we should just stay here, on the sand - it's so lovely and warm, don't you think?
((Totally can't swim...^^;;))
Warm and fuzzies ahoy~!
Sand castle? Does Elizabeth want to build a sand castle with Edward?!
[She looks excited]
8D Hot and sandies!..yay!
Yes! That sounds wonderful! Though you'll have to show me; I'm not very good at making..those
:D
Edward has to get her bucket! Elizabeth stays here, okay? Edward will be right back!
[She sings this last part]
yay!
no subject
See! Now Ed and Elizabeth make a castle with sand and water using these!
See, now she's actually pretty curious on what a sand castle is~
no subject
Like Elizabeth's! Like Elizabeth's! Like Elizabeth's! Edward wants to know aaaaall about Elizabeth's castle! Does Elizabeth have lots and lots of servants and pets and bathtubs?
[She takes up and spins her spade]
Nope, nope, not big. Little castles. Castles for crabs! Big as the bucket!
Now I'm betting Elizabeth wished she had kids of her own
It was a beautiful house; even bigger than the Manor house we live in now, with huge stables filled with ponies and horses. If you're a very important person, such as myself, you get at least three bedrooms, and then rooms for your servants. For instance, every important lady had their own group of Ladies in waiting, who would do everything. Then there're all of the other servants..[She pauses for a moment]
Oh! I know what you'd like best; sometimes there would be big parties, where all of the ladies would be dressed in the most beautiful gowns, and there would be dancing and music and everyone is happy. I used to love the parties my father would hold~
You know, if we ever get to leave the Manor, would you like to see my castle?
(going back to the sand castles)
I see - castles that small? I've never heard of such a thing; although, with how much sand there is on this beach, maybe we could make an actual castle - wouldn't that be fantastic?
Re: Now I'm betting Elizabeth wished she had kids of her own
[she looks more and more excited]
Dancing and music parties?! For everyone?! With lots and lots and lots of friends?
[Ed has already started gathering up sand.]
Come with Edward to get a pail of water!
[She picks up her bucket and jumps to her feet.]
A reaaal sand castle.
[Ed stops and puts the bucket down. She's thinking. Then, she sits down and picks up a nearby stick. She's writing some calculations in the sand, muttering to herself. In the sand she scribbles complex equations.]
Oh Elizabeth, what have you started? XD
Lots of friends indeed, and really very good food all night~
[She watches Ed in curiousity as the younger red head writes in the sand. As she tries to read what she's written, Elizabeth blinks]
What's all that, Ed? What're the calculations for?
:P
Shhh! Edward is concentrating!
[Then her head snaps back downward as she works on her calculations]
XD love it~
