Come to the place where mermaids dwell
Follow the call of trumpet shells
We'll fill your sails with friendly winds
And point the way with shining fins
And you can bid your cares farewell
There are dolphins to ride for pleasure
And starfish that twinkle all night long
Strings of pearls and sunken treasure
And a mermaid song
Where Mermaids Dwell-Jodi Benson

♓Sora, hurry up or we're going to miss the first arrivals!♓Kairi calls through the front door, her voice echoing throughout her home. She smacks her fist on the frame and lets out an impatient huff when he doesn't respond. ♓DO you hear me? Sora!?♓
⛎I'm coming!⛎he answers. ⛎Just hold on a sec--!⛎
The lanky young man rushes to and fro across his borrowed room for his effects. His notebook and pencils of course. Grabs them and shoves them into his bag. No guarantee they'll even get close enough for a sketch or two but better to have them than not, right? Speaking of--he grabs his razor blades to sharpen his pencils with too. Never know how fine a line he'll need.
Kairi gives another annoyed noise as she hits the frame impatiently again. She may be small in stature but her temper is strong enough to sink a cargo ship and that's nothing to test. She hates being late or missing out on rare happenings. This is her first year observing the migration, just like Sora, and if she misses it because he's taking a dump--
♏Patience, Kairi,♏says a calm voice as a large hand comes to rest on her head.
♓I'm trying, Riku,♓ she tells him but the way she clips her words says her composure is nearing its end.
That seems like everything he'd need, Sora thinks as he scans the room a third time and lists off with his fingers. His drawing stuff, some snacks, a hat to keep the sun from baking his neck. Looks good, now for himself. He does a quick once-over in the little decorative mirror on the wall.
Beautifully smooth tanned skin and not a spiky brown hair out of place. He flashes himself a quick smile with a wink. He looks good too. Great. And with a click of his tongue, he runs for the door where his friends wait on the porch. Then he suddenly raises a finger in realization and stops in his tracks.
And then remembered that he forgot his I.D. back inside of the house.
♓Sora, are you fucking kidding me?!♓Kairi shrieks when he turns.
⛎Sorry! Sorry!⛎ He apologizes profusely as he retreats back into the Hikaru residence.
He needs that ID if he wants to get into the sanctuary directly afterward. He trips over Kairi's cat which hissed and swiped at his ankle in passing. Something he bumps into falls over in his room and Sora curses. The moment of silence is too long because Kairi practically growls out her next sentence.
♓If I miss the arrivals because of you, Sora, I'll-♓
⛎Alright already! I'm coming!⛎ Sora calls as he runs out the front door zooming past them. He keeps going down the street, looking over his shoulder with a cheeky smile. ⛎Well, are you guys coming or what, slowpokes?⛎
