260 — Olympics mingle
[ It is a gorgeous day down here at the bottom of the sea and what better day to have an Olympics! The obstacle course is set up, the towels are fluffed, the medals have been polished to a high sheen and every orange within sight has been sliced.

Okay. Maybe not every orange. A lot of them. Enough to fuel a whole prison full of athletes, so athlete away! We can't waste all these oranges! ]

	I intend to try the obstacle course, at least, later. This seemed like an ideal warm-up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, that sounds like it would be fun. My partner will probably be doing that one. It is a good warm-up. Did you do much swimming back home? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	first_xo 2014-03-03 04:01 am UTC (link)
	Not much, [she answers, shaking her head.] But I may begin to make a habit of it here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It is a fun sport to get into. It's one of that I do the most. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	first_xo 2014-03-03 04:36 am UTC (link)
	At home as well? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oceans_requiem 2014-03-03 09:58 pm UTC (link)
	[She nods] Yes, at home as well. I enjoy anything that has to do with the water. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I believe there is a rowing competition, if you have an interest in boating. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oceans_requiem 2014-03-04 02:31 am UTC (link)
	I could give it a shot. It might be fun. Have you ever done that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	first_xo 2014-03-04 02:42 am UTC (link)
	I cannot say I have. My experience is primarily with a different sort of ship. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oceans_requiem 2014-03-04 03:38 am UTC (link)
	Oh, so one much larger than that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	first_xo 2014-03-04 03:53 am UTC (link)
	I am stationed aboard a starship. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oceans_requiem 2014-03-04 11:00 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, those are the vessels that travel through space, yes? My world has only recently started space exploration. It would make water-related sports difficult. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	first_xo 2014-03-05 02:16 am UTC (link)
	It is something of an impediment. [If nothing else, she is perpetually busy, or so it seems.] But I have seen some lovely extraterrestrial oceans. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oceans_requiem 2014-03-05 02:24 am UTC (link)
	You have? That much be interesting, to see something like that. I know there are beautiful oceanscapes on Earth. I can't imagine what they would be like on other worlds. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	first_xo 2014-03-05 02:37 am UTC (link)
	Some are not dissimilar; other planets have a notably different ratio of land to water. Depending upon chemical makeup, atmospheric conditions, and sea life, some oceans are of unusual colors. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oceans_requiem 2014-03-05 02:54 am UTC (link)
	Hmmm... sounds beautiful. Perhaps it is something I'll get to see at some point. Or perhaps I could try painting it at some point. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	first_xo 2014-03-05 02:59 am UTC (link)
	Is that what you do at home? You're an artist? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oceans_requiem 2014-03-05 04:00 am UTC (link)
	I'm a violinist. I paint as a hobby. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ah, performing arts rather than fine arts. [Still, that's nice.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oceans_requiem 2014-03-05 10:27 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, exactly. But the arts, any of them, are a wonderful thing to get involved in. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	first_xo 2014-03-06 02:01 am UTC (link)
	I tend to limit my involvement to observation. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oceans_requiem 2014-03-06 03:46 am UTC (link)
	So you've never tried it? It can be a lot of fun. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	first_xo 2014-03-07 12:04 am UTC (link)
	I haven't much aptitude. I try to be an appreciative audience instead. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oceans_requiem 2014-03-07 02:51 am UTC (link)
	That's always a good option as well. If you've ever like to try, I'd be happy to show you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
