The ocean it is! Let's see... The beaches back home probably aren't as impressive as, say, the perfect tropical getaway or whatever, so I guess it wouldn't hurt to make something up. Mmm... How about this?
[ SUDDENLY!! The white void around them turns into... idfk a nice beach. A really damn nice beach. The shit you see in photoshopped images and postcards. Incredible. ]
It's not like I'm gonna know the difference. Remember that I know zero oceans?
[ Meanwhile me hovering over Anais as the beach lord apparently. But wow! Wolfwood squints a little if only because the transition from the black void into a bright sunlit beach is pretty intense, but... you know what? Yeah, this is really nice.
The sand he's familiar with, but the sound of the water and waves lapping on shore immediately draws his attention. ]
[ It's curiosity and fascination, though in a lowkey way because he doesn't tend to often wear his emotion brazenly on his sleeve. And beaches aren't some kind of WHOA!! phenomenon either. But it's really nice? ]
Like you don't know where it ends, right? That part would be the same as the sand ocean at least.
You couldn't even swim out on a sand ocean. It's just an abyss, with like, a whirlwind of sand, if that makes sense. If you fell in there, it's probably just nothin' but death.
[ Imagining there's land out there on the other side... Wolfwood imagines it's possible. The areas inhabited on his planet aren't the ONLY parts of the planet. But still, it's a little wild, especially to think that people could go to the oceans for leisure. ]
[ MAYBE? I have no clue honestly, it's just the sand ocean. ]
Yeah, when it's hot only during a specific time of the year...
[ He snorts, because you know. It's basically permanent Death Valley where he's from.
Well, he'll go over there then, finding nothing unusual about the sand underneath his soles, at least until he comes just short of the shoreline where the furthest waves lap.
He's... very clearly like, a little bit like -- you know, it's as if one of us walked over to a 'shore' but instead of water, it was just fluffy clouds licking at the edges of the land. Totally foreign. Super weird! ]
[ He looks weirded out by it! It's... kind of fascinating, really—everybody back home knows what an ocean is. She can't think of anyone who'd be so awed by it like this.
Mizuki jogs up a little further ahead, where the waves begin rolling over her shoes. It's a simulation, it's fine. ]
Just don't drink it, alright? It doesn't taste good.
I wasn't gonna dunk my face in it, who do you take me for? 'Sides, a bunch of you already told me it's all salty and unpotable and shit.
[ Look, he's not gonna do that!! He does a lot of stupid shit, but this isn't going to be one of them. He looks at her do it and seems to remember that this is just a simulation -- he forgot for a moment, so taken back by the sight of it, and carefully breaches that line. Almost jumping a little when the sensation of old water feels like its seeping through his shoes, between his toes. ]

Is this what it looks like on your home?

Mmhm! The coast goes for miles, and the water is... well, infinite. Kind of.

Looks like a nice place to go.

It's one of the most popular vacation spots to go, especially when it's hot during summer... Why don't you go take a closer look?

[ Just to be a little shit, she kicks water his way. ]
That's why it's the perfect summer destination!

Well wouldn't that be nice!
[ But no really. This really would be such a nice thing to have. ]

There's lakes and rivers, too. The beach isn't the only place to get something like this.

How big is your place? I guess land numbers wouldn't mean much. How many people?
no subject
[ She has to think about this for a sec. ]
Tokyo alone has... millions, I guess? Yeah, maybe over thirty-something million people. It's a big city.
