*Jeep on the beach, and Andy with the surfing accoutrements and looking generally antsy with the universe*
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 8:14:01 PM)
Nascha arrives at the beach, ready as she could be for the lessons. She slips out of Lillianne's car, and glances to the other kin with a sly smile when the other girl promises to be baands.ck after running a few err
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 8:15:48 PM)
*glancing up after a few* Yo...you ready to try this on?
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 8:19:05 PM)
She smiles pleasantly as she comes over to join Andy, feeling somewhat naked without her beloved walking stick in her possession. Sensibly she'd left that back where it was safe at home. "Ya'at'eeh, brother."
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 8:20:13 PM)
You remember everything about this? *grinning* Good news is, waves are low.
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 8:22:02 PM)
She looks out to the water, studying it for herself a moment before looking back to him, accepting his word that it was a good thing without question.
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 8:24:02 PM)
*casually flipping a pair of board out on the sand, and tossing Nascha a white hockey puck of wax* Get a good coat on, and we'll hit wave.
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 8:25:43 PM)
She nods, catching the wax with good reflexes. She smiles and moves to the board to wax it down. "What exactly does this do?"
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 8:26:35 PM)
Gives you a platform to stand on.
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 8:29:41 PM)
She holds up the wax and examines it. "Grip?"
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 8:30:25 PM)
*Nods* For your feet, y'know? Water and board get slippery, so you lay on a layer of wax, and your feet stick.
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 8:35:13 PM)
She nods, and resumes waxing the board until it seemed she'd done as well a job as his board was waxed up. She stands again and offers him back the block of wax.
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 8:36:44 PM)
*wrap, and a casual flip into the jeep* Now then. Pick an ankle and wrap your strap. *doing his first to demonstrate how it's done*
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 8:40:14 PM)
She nods and straps her right ankle, her left still showing the faintest scarring.
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 8:43:30 PM)
And now, because we loves us some ocean, we run to her. *grins, picking his surfboard up and tearing off into the water, jumping when he the water gets about kneedeep*
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 8:46:56 PM)
She laughs as she snags up the board and gives chase, looking thoroughly pleased to be out there with him and enjoying the moment.
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 8:49:02 PM)
*paddling out a little more* You wanna do like a breaststroke with your arms to get out - your legs'll get their workout coming back in. *demonstrates casually*
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 8:59:20 PM)
She smiles as she mimics him, following him out into the water as she looks around them with a grin she just can't wipe from her face.
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 9:01:48 PM)
So now...coming back in, you gotta find a wave and paddle with it until you feel it grab the board. Then pop up, and keep your balance. try not to overcorrect, or you'll be facefirst in a crackheads' heartbeat, y'know?
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 9:03:33 PM)
She listens, clearly trying to get that right in her head as she nods. She smiles, despite whatever uncertainty she might have had, and looks to the water for a wave to try this out.
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 9:07:09 PM)
When she thought she was ready, she follows his instructions, paddling along with the wave before popping up onto the board when it caught. For a beginner, she was doing one hell of a job. [08/01/11 01:05:18 Nascha Ooljee rolls 7 dice vs. diff of 6 to first try: 2, 8, 6, 8, 4, 10, 5 : 4 successes Catlike Balance applies here, right?]
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 9:08:06 PM)
((I...would say yes)) *points* HELLYEAH. *and catches the next wave himself, moving with his own lackadasical pace*
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 9:12:44 PM)
She laughs as the wave carries her off and Andy cheers her on, riding along in the most basic way she'd observed on her times to the beach, not foolish enough to try anything ridiculous quite yet.
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 9:21:33 PM)
*He's watching more then anything, just to make sure Nasch doesn't faceplant or break anything. Thus he ain't going crazy himself just yet...*
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 9:26:28 PM)
She glances his way, beaming as she waves. She looks happy enough to be eager for more, so when it was time to catch more waves she doesn't balk, getting in all the experience she could for the day.
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 9:27:45 PM)
Niiiiiice. Now we do it again.
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 9:29:31 PM)
She nods and grins as she paddles over closer to him to splash him first before heading after a new wave.
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 9:31:31 PM)
OI! *smirks and countersplashes, paddling forward* Just remember...always have the utmost respect for the sea. If you don't, the sea will try very hard to kill you. I forgot that, and got bit for my trouble, y'know? *lifting his arm to indicate where the shark had a nom*
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 9:34:04 PM)
She looks over to the scar, nodding. "Isn't that true of all of Changing Woman's creations?"
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 9:35:43 PM)
This happened before I knew what I was.
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 9:39:11 PM)
"It is good to remember those moments, yes?" She paddles along to catch another wave. She was a quick study, catching the wave without any hesitation and demonstrating a natural ease on the board despite her inexperience.

Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 9:45:27 PM)
Are you sandbagging me!?
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 9:47:16 PM)
"Sandbagging?" She glances his way as she works to maintain her balance with impressive ease.
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 9:48:22 PM)
Yeah - you sure you never surfed before?
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 9:50:26 PM)
"Only in dreams, this is much better!" She laughs and pivots the board under her.
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 9:52:14 PM)
*plays around a little bit, apparently feeling confident that Nascha's not got to break her head open. Finally.*
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 9:56:58 PM)
She seems to be having a ball, and she sticks out her tongue when he looks her way. "Why did we wait this long for this?"
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 9:58:17 PM)
Hey, I rock it out here at least every couple weeks. Take the baby waves like tonight, and then in a couple weeks, the bigger waves come out to play.
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 10:01:12 PM)
She nods, grinning as she plays around in the water, it was impossible to tell that she ever had any kind of problem with her leg, watching her now.
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 10:04:36 PM)
So now...what else you wanna learn. Waves aren't big enough to trick out on.
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 10:09:42 PM)
She looks out across the water and then back to him. "Do you have any suggestions?"
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 10:11:13 PM)
Well...we could work on maneuvering a little.
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 10:14:05 PM)
She nods, looking him over with a smile. "That sounds reasonable."
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 10:15:18 PM)
It's..leaning left and right. Your back foot guides, front foot keeps you up.
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 10:18:19 PM)
She looks mildly surprised that it seems so simple and gives it a try.
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 10:20:14 PM)
*grins, lagging behind*
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 10:21:48 PM)
She laughs as she's being tailed, feeling out the board under her. Though she was still doing quite well, she wasn't showing the same expertise she'd been demonstrating with just getting up on the wave.

*meanwhile, Andy's back to more watching as they head in* And...gatorade break!
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 10:27:41 PM)
She laughs and nods. "Now it's clear why you enjoy this so much."
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 10:32:35 PM)
It's like flying low. *grins*
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 10:33:56 PM)
"Have you ever flown high?" She chuckles, glancing his way.
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 10:34:12 PM)
In a plane, yeah.
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 10:36:46 PM)
"Nothing as wild as jumping out, or hang gliding?"
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 10:38:56 PM)
Not yet. But I'm still young.
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 10:40:42 PM)
"Everything in its time?" She laughs and nods, lookingover the beach and water thoughtfully.
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 10:42:26 PM)
More or less. I just hope it's not learning under duress.
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 10:48:01 PM)
She shakes her head, smiling pleasantly as ever. "Anything under duress would seem less than ideal."
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 10:48:47 PM)
It usually is. And you don't do as good. What kinda gatorade you like?
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 10:52:05 PM)
"blue." She smiles and shrugs.
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 10:53:59 PM)
We got lotsa blue. *Lobs one*
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 10:57:00 PM)
She snatches the bottle from the air and laughs, looking it over thoughtfully before cracking it open. "Which do you like?"
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 10:58:33 PM)
Blue. Tastes hideous, but it looks like the ocean.

Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 11:00:25 PM)
She laughs and shakes her head, taking a swallow of her blue drink. "Do any Gatorades taste good?"
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 11:03:36 PM)
Not really. But Gatorade is not something you chug for the taste.
Tristan Redgrave (Jul 31, 2011 11:05:59 PM)
*was headed for a beach, apparently looking for andy*
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 11:06:17 PM)
*chilling on the beach with gatorade and surfboards handy, they're in surfing-appropriate gear*
Tristan Redgrave (Jul 31, 2011 11:07:05 PM)
*wasn't in surf gear himself, had his cane with him anyhow* Andy!
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 11:07:13 PM)
She smiles pleasantly and leans against him, hair heavy and dripping in a long braid. An unusual style for her, but fitting for the beach.
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 11:10:14 PM)
Hey old man! *leans back for a second before standing, heading to get another gatorade for Tristan*
Tristan Redgrave (Jul 31, 2011 11:10:42 PM)
*looked amused, or pleased, or..something. good mooded for a change, and in swap for the gatorade offered andy something*
Nascha Ooljee (Jul 31, 2011 11:11:10 PM)
"Ya'at'eeh, brother." She smiles Tris' way with a nod.
Tristan Redgrave (Jul 31, 2011 11:11:43 PM)
*said something was a folded up letter it looked like*
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 11:13:00 PM)
*Eyebrow, wiping his hand to dry it before looking at something*
Tristan Redgrave (Jul 31, 2011 11:15:46 PM)
*it would be a letter, which, stating that Andy - having done a col and solid thing, is entitled to one get out of jail free card with his alpha - so long as said alpha is tristan, not to cover litany violations or murders..etc..etc. etc. a philodox wrote it, what do you expect?*

Tristan Redgrave (Jul 31, 2011 11:17:31 PM)
*and looked at him* "I heard about the ragabash contest. Dont make me regret being seriously in awe of you right now"
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 11:18:23 PM)
*looks at it* There's a loophole in here. *grins and puts it in the glovebox, settling next to Nascha again*
Andy Nichols (Jul 31, 2011 11:19:35 PM)
I did a thing. *chuckles* I'm being not-retarded.
