Paolo-
"Yeah, man! It f-feels hel-la spiritual."
Paolo followed Eli's lead.

Paolo-
"No way, I g-g-got this."
Paolo got up onto his board. He was reasonably deft,
though perhaps slowed by the cold in his muscles.
Helen clambered on after,
light as nothing.
 
Paolo-
Helen- "Let's DO THIS!!!"
"OK!"

The waves were steady, very uniform, reasonably tall, much like they
were last time. They were in the midst of the five-to-several footers. |

Paolo seemed to be doing pretty good and Eli looked away for a moment,
to tend to his own footwork. Just as they were starting to go, Paolo &
Helen's surfboard shot past Eli like a bullet, with no one on it. |

Helen was still at the surface, but Paolo was not. 
Helen-
"I'm not a very strong swimmer, could you?"

He was only about six feet down.
Paolo-
"*blub*"

((I busted out yo wet hair stylez))
He wasn't too bad for the
dunk, but clearly the cold
was getting serious
for him.
 
Helen- Paolo-
"Feelin' better?" "Yeah, just disappointed. You're right."

Paolo broke free to at least go
get the surfboard, and that
tiny dignity.
Paolo-
"Thanks, b-bro."
On the way back,
Paolo-
"You're a p-p-pretty c-cool dude, uh...
What's your... You d-do this much?"

Paolo-
"Oh y-yeah, that's c-cool. You ev-ver work as a l-lifeg-guard?
I was th-the t-t-token straight guy on m-my neighb-bor-hood's
g-g-gay tackleb-ball t-t-team, b-but th-the male energ-gy w-was
just uh... t-t-too ag-gressive for me. I'm a-uh a person of p-peace."

Paolo-
"C-c-cool... V-vitus? N-name's f-famil-iar. D-did we me-eet?"
{originally}  Eli - "It's possible, he runs in the same circle as the rest of us. Blonde guy, pale, kind of tall? Usually carries a book around? He's here somewhere, actually, so you might run into him tonight!" |

Paolo-
"Mm-m, not f-fam-il-" Helen-
"Vitus is great, but I don't think
Paolo- you'd have much in common."
"Th-that's c-c-cool.
wh-what-ev-ver hap-pens t-t-tonight, I-I'm d-down..."
And shortly they were in time skip city,
leaving the briny deep to sundry fishes...
