"Ah it's nice and sunny

"Ah it's nice and sunny. Great day for the beach right?"

We all look at Mark weirdly, before looking back at the windy and gloomy sky, the waves crashing against people and potentially drowning them.

Perfect.

"Ah why are you guys so sad! This is actually perfect weather for the beach. Have you guys not been to Australia?"

They all shake their heads.

"Ah well be grateful we aren't at Phillip island. I love Phillip Island, it's amazing. The waves are always so big, great for surfing. There's also so many seals!"

(It's a small as island connected to a part of Victoria by a bridge)

"Then why are you telling us to be grateful we aren't there if it's great?"

I look back at Mark.

"I mentioned there are many seals right?" I ask him and he nods, the rest of the members listening to our conversation.

"Many seals in an area is fun, but the area turns into a feeding zone."

"So the seals catch fish or something..?" Jisung asks and I tilt my head. "You can say that.."

"But I meant they become the food."

It goes silent.

"SHARKS?!" Jaemin shouts suddenly and looks at us with wide eyes. "Yeah there are heaps of sharks there. But if you stay in shallow waters it's fine, but if you spot a seal it's better to leave." I say before walking back closer to the beach.

"You know, there's also a thing called Blue Bottles floating around when it's too windy."

"There are bottles floating around in the ocean?"

I chuckle at Jeno's question.

"They're jelly fish. They're harmless unless you're allergic. They'll just attach themselves to you, their long tentacles just wrapping themselves around you. You can pick them off though, and after they'll just hurt like hell."

"I don't want to go to Australia."

"Oh c'mon it's amazing! If you're not in some bush or a warmer area in Australia then you won't encounter a snake. You might but in Melbourne you won't see them just anywhere." I shrug, looking at their faces in the reflection the more we walk along the side of the beach on the footpath.

"But spiders, oh yeah they are everywhere. You'll see one at least twice a week depending on how clean you keep your space, but they'll still find a way to come in." I look at the beach before looking back at them.

"You all look horrified."

"They're also massive rips in the ocean that pull you out and drown yo-."
