It was day two of Seth being human.

In the morning, Seth stretched himself before Josh reminded him about the 'date' as the crustacean called it. Seth immediately bolted up and got himself ready. Caleb came and got him when he was ready. For today, Caleb wore his usual attire as Seth went with a blue dress shirt, black trousers, light blue socks, and black lace up dress shoes. He still had his aquamarine necklace on and placed his notepad and pencil in his pockets.

It was a clear dat and it reflected Seth's moods as they departed in Caleb's car. Seth, having never seen a car, questioned what it was. Caleb just chuckled at the 'stranded' boy's knowledge and told him. Josh was able to scurry and stow away on the car, which soon turned out to be a bad idea when the car began to move. Caleb apparently like to go fast and Josh clutched for dear life on the car.

As the car arrived in the town, Seth's heart pounded with excitement. While there was some basic similarities, there were many differences between the usual stores that Atlantis had. Seth was like a child at Christmas as he eagerly went into each store and was curious about what they sold.

Caleb simply found Seth's excitement both charming and amusing, and he liked having someone who was interested in almost anything. It almost made him think he had never been to a town center before.

There was a pier near the town center where the two stood and Seth simply inhaled the air before exhaling. Josh took this time to scurry, as he had been trying to be undetectable by the other humans, over to where they were, only to see not one kiss.
Breanna made her debut as a random dolphin just swimming by before clicking to Josh, "Any kissing?"

"Not yet!" Josh hissed and noticed the princes leaving before hurrying after them. The bottlenose sighed with disappointment before going to tell Haven about the news as she was hidden underneath the pier.

"So..." Haven began, only for her friend to shake her head no. Haven facepalmed at this, this was going to be harder than she thought.

Back in the town center, Seth found himself enjoying everything. There was so much to take in. People were going about their business, whether it was shopping, working, or eating, there was a small fountain of water which Seth partially splashed in, and some much more. It was a mere hangout place for Caleb, but to Seth found this as his once in a lifetime chance. Seth even found a few items that he thought he had to have, so Caleb bought them.

Around 12 o'clock, Caleb took Seth to a place called Baskin-Robbins. Seth was unaware of how to order, so Caleb explained how and Seth got the gist of it. "Mmm, this is good," Caleb commented as he took another spoonful of his chocolate ice cream. "How's yours? Is it any good?"

Seth nodded as he took another spoonful of his vanilla ice cream with rainbow sprinkles. It reminded him of a food store that sold Atlantean desserts. Seth then felt his head begin to develop a chilling sensation through it.

Caleb snickered at Seth's expression. "First brain freeze?"

Seth nodded before getting the will to write. How come you don't have one?

"It only happens if you eat ice cream that's too cold or eat it too fast. Most not have any ice cream from where you're from, huh?" Caleb asked.

Not necessarily. We tend to have more... squishy forms of desserts. Seth explained, recalling in Atlantis that most of the dessert was made from sponges, giving it a springy feeling as one chewed it.

"Oh, so like Jello then?" Caleb realized.

Seth thought about it before agreeing with whatever this 'Jello' was.

"So, Seth..." the brunette began, "Where are you from?"

The former merman was sure how to describe where he came from. The ocean? He doubt Caleb would understand. It's rather hard to explain, sorry. Seth wrote, hoping Caleb would let the discussion die down.
