WHO: Xanthippe and Mickey
WHEN:Sunday 20 October 2013
WHERE: The ocean
All of her life, Xanthippe had gone swimming every day. She'd always felt a connection to the sea, but now with her mother gone, it was more important. It was a foreign sea, not her usual beloved Mediterranean, but the connection was still there. It liked her, and she liked it back.
She preferred to swim unclothed, but there were enough fishermen in the area that her naked body would draw as much attention as the snakes on her head, so both were covered. The green one-piece swimsuit and decorative swimming cap gave her the look of a Golden Hollywood bathing beauty. Her snakes twinged and protested to be constricted so, but she shushed them. There was nothing to be done. The amulet about her neck was in full view for once and she didn't bother with shoes as she walked down from the school to the rocks where she would dive.
