He took the sandwich, smiling at him and shifting a little to lean more comfortably before he started eating. Between bites, he asked Dave what he wanted to do today.

Dave shrugged, chipmunking the food, since he took a large bite. "Sunbathe? Just a regular day at the beach. Oh I want to build a sand castle."

2015-11-01 10:38:15

🌀

"I have spades in a cabinet somewhere. We can make an epic sand castle." He grinned, having a little bit of nutella on his top lip that he hadn't noticed.

2015-11-01 10:38:57

●

Dave snickers when he looks at his face, and nods. "The biggest sand castle, we need to give it our all."

2015-11-01 10:40:10

🌀

He licked his lips, getting the nutella on the second go. "Of course we will. We can make it below the high tide mark though, because then we can get a moat around it when the tide comes in."

2015-11-01 10:41:29

●

"Hmmm yes. I like that strategy. Have you ever made one before?"

2015-11-01 10:48:29

🌀

"Yeah I have. I used to make them all the time when i was little, and every few years when we meet up Cro and I occasionally have build offs. He won last year."

2015-11-01 10:56:02

●

He aws, and swallows what he has in his mouth. "How big do you make them?"

2015-11-01 11:03:51

🌀

"As big as we can get before they fall over or we can't reach. Mine got to about here." He gestured to about mid chest standing.

2015-11-01 11:08:46

●

He smiled wider at that "What about his? How big?"

2015-11-01 11:09:14

🌀

"Roughly the same height. His had three more towers than mine did, but I had better battlements. He only won because mine caved in half because he had his above the tide mark and mine wasn't, and then a wave came in."

2015-11-01 11:13:30

●

"Aw, that's shitty. What about in other years, who won those ones?"

2015-11-01 11:14:33

🌀

"We were tied. I was ahead for a while, then he was."

2015-11-01 11:16:37

●

"Well you gotta win next time babe, yo restore your honour. What's a Prince without a great castle after all?" He smiles a bit

2015-11-01 14:36:47

🌀

"I know I'm gonna win next time. Cro needs to play by the rules. We always build it after the high tide mark so that it can get washed away after we're all done with it."

2015-11-01 20:30:39

●

"Why? Wouldn't you like to have it be like that for a while?" He throws a bread crumb at Eridan.

2015-11-01 20:43:24

🌀

"Well yeah, but other people use the beaches we normally build on, and I'd rather it get destroyed by the ocean then by some snotty little kids."

2015-11-01 20:47:49

●

"Fair point." He nods, taking another huge bite. "You should try building something together."

2015-11-01 20:48:37

🌀

"We should. Last time we tried it was massive. But it looked stupid because we both had different ideas and tried to make them work at the same time without letting he other know."

2015-11-01 20:49:19

●

He has an idea. "You two should make a blueprint with the castle you want to build. I'm shit at building castles, and can only make them look decent when im using buckets."

2015-11-01 20:51:02

🌀

"We use buckets and spades and literally a whole butt load of things to make our castles. But yeah, a blueprint may work."

2015-11-01 20:53:04

●

"I'm usually happy when I can make a tunnel through the towers without them crashing down, honestly." He snickers. "Do you have pictures of those infamous castles.

2015-11-01 20:54:55

🌀

He laughed, nodding. "There,s an easy way to do it, but it takes practice. And I think so. They might be at home in one of the boxes in my cupboard if they're anywhere."

2015-11-01 21:00:26

●

"Sweet, I gotta check 'em out." He smiled, satisfied, and finished his food.

2015-11-01 21:01:53

🌀

"I'll show you when we get back. And you can take photos today if you want. Of the sandcastles."
