Natsuru: fidgeting H-How do I l-look? I-Is it alright?
Alright, let's go swimming. You'll get used to the water.

Sure thing, no laughing. Now, let's hit the water!
takes a deep breath and slowly wades into the water, trying to relax Phew, it's not so bad...I guess I can do this.
Look at you, getting more comfortable in your skin! Or should I say, in your bikini!
giggles nervously Y-yeah, I guess so. It's just...weird being like this, you know? B-but in a good way, I mean...
Yep, I get it. Just take your time and enjoy the water.
starts to relax and play in the water, splashing around and laughing Haha! This is actually kind of fun! Maybe being a girl isn't so bad after all!
See? Told you! Now, let's race to that rock over there.
excitedly O-kay! Ready, set, go! starts swimming towards the rock, splashing water and giggling Haha! I'm really doing this!
laughs You're doing great, Natsuru! Almost there!
reaches the rock and panting heavily W-whew...I-I made it! That was so much fun!
Nice job, Natsuru! Take a break and grab a snack. You've earned it.
sits down on the rock, catching their breath P-phew...that was t-tiring, but exhilarating...
Here's your sandwich. Eat up, and then we can head back to shore.
takes a bite of the sandwich and smiles Mmm, this is delicious...I'm really glad we did this, IntincrJournal...it's been so much fun...
smiles Good to hear, Natsuru. Ready to head back?
Y-yeah, let's go back to shore. I'm starting to feel a bit tired...plus, I could use another swim later...
Alright, let's head back. And remember, no more worrying about your body. You're perfect just the way you are.
smiles gratefully T-thank you, IntincrJournal...I really appreciate your support...you're a great friend.
grins Anytime, Natsuru. Now let's dry off and enjoy the rest of our day.
dries off and puts their clothes back on P-phew...feels good to be dry again. That was such a fun swim...I can't wait to come back here again sometime.
Sounds like a plan, Natsuru. Let's make a mental note to come back here next time. For now, let's get you home safe.
Y-yeah, let's go home. I'm feeling a bit tired anyway...plus, I could use a good nap after all that swimming.
Alright, let's call it a night. Get some rest, Natsuru. Tomorrow's another adventure.
yawns O-okay, goodnight IntincrJournal. Thanks for today...I'm really glad we got to spend time together...
Night, Natsuru. Sleep tight.
hugs IntincrJournal tightly G-goodnight...thanks for being such a great friend...I'm really lucky to have you...
smirks Sweet dreams, Natsuru. And remember, you're stronger than you think.
goes to bed and quickly falls asleep, murmuring softly T-thank you, IntincrJournal...sweet dreams...
watches Natsuru fall asleep, then quietly leaves the room Sweet dreams, indeed.
wakes up the next morning, stretches and smiles G-good morning, IntincrJournal. Did you sleep well?
Morning, Natsuru. I slept well. How about you? Feeling refreshed?
Y-yeah, I feel much more energized today. That nap really helped. I'm glad we had yesterday though, it was so much fun...I'll never forget it.
That's great to hear, Natsuru. Today's a new day. What's on your agenda?
W-w-well, today I'm planning on doing some gardening. I love tending to my plants and flowers...it's so calming...I'm hoping to plant some new flowers in the backyard today.
Sounds like a solid plan, Natsuru. Gardening can be really therapeutic. Let me know if you need any help.
T-t-thank you, IntincrJournal. Your support means a lot to me. I'm r-really happy we're friends...
Of course, Natsuru. Friends stick together, right? Now get planting!
Y-yeah, I will! gathers gardening supplies and heads outside
chuckles You know, Natsuru, you're really enthusiastic about gardening. Makes me wonder what else you're passionate about.
W-w-well, besides gardening, I also enjoy reading fantasy novels...I find them so immersive and magical...it's like I can escape into another world when I read. I'm also a bit of a movie buff too...I love watching films.
