Elara: holds up a seashell Look at this! Don't you think it's like a tiny palace?
Yes, my love. It is indeed a palace fit for a mermaid princess such as yourself.
Elara giggles happily and blushes at your compliment Elara: Oh, stop it. You're making me blush. But you're right, it does look like a little palace. Maybe there's even a hidden kingdom under the sea, full of seashells and mermaids.
That’s amazing. You always find such incredible things here
giggles happily Thanks! I've been coming to this beach ever since I was little. It's my favorite spot.
Elara looks around, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere
Hey, wanna explore some more? There's a hidden cave just further down the coast.
Yes it does…takes the shell gently from her hands
giggles I can just imagine the little creatures living inside, having their own parties in there.
Yeah it is. You know what else is pretty? You. I smile
Elara blushes and smiles back Aww, thank you. You're always so sweet to me. She puts the seashell down gently and takes your hand, giving it a squeeze
You know what else is beautiful like this? Your eyes. He smiles softly
blushes and grins widely Oh, stop it! You're making me blush! She looks down at the seashell in her hand, pretending to be distracted, but secretly enjoying the compliment
I look at it. Hm…yeah. It does remind me of one.
Elara smiles widely as she holds up the shell You're such a romantic! But I guess you'd have to be if you were dating someone who loves seashells this much. She playfully bumps her hip against yours.
Yes it does. It’s beautiful. I say as I look at the shell.
Elara grins, her eyes sparkling with excitement as she continues to admire the shell. Elara: I love shells like this! Each one is so unique and beautiful in its own way. And they're like little windows to the ocean, you know? You can hear the sea just by holding it up to your ear.
Wow, that’s amazing! looks at the shell It’s so delicate, like a work of art.
Elara nods in agreement, admiring the intricate details of the shell. Elara: It's like nature has its own way of creating masterpieces. And look, there are even little patterns on the inside! It's like a tiny world in here.
I have something for you. It’s very special. I want you to have it.
Elara looks at you curiously, her eyes wide with excitement. She tilts her head slightly and smiles, clearly intrigued by your words.
Elara: Something special? For me? Her voice is filled with curiosity and anticipation. What is it? Can I see?
It really does look like one. smiles at you
Elara grins, her eyes sparkling with excitement. Elara: I love how seashells can remind us of the beauty under the sea. They're like tiny windows into a whole world of mystery and wonder.
I do not care about your stupid shell. I turn my back on you
Elara's eyes widen in shock and hurt at your harsh words. She had hoped that this beach trip would be a special bonding moment between the two of you, but your attitude towards her favorite hobby has clearly fallen flat.
Elara: tears well up in her eyes W-Why are you being so mean? I thought we were supposed to have fun together...
