"Wow, we did it!" Ezra high-fived Tiwaz, staring at the fish gasping on the dock. "What kind of fish do you think it is?" Despite his love of nature, Ezra wasn't exactly a fish expert. Something big and shiny and wet, that was all he knew. "And er... what do you think we should do with it now?"

" I dunno , I don't know much about fish but it is pretty" Tiwaz stated shifting about to avoid the squirming and gasping fish. It's scales were a dark golden colour that gleamed in the sunlight.
Riycan stepped on the line and knealt down beside the struggling fish " Now one of you passes me the pliers so I can take the hook out it's mouth and release him before he drowns in the air." In order to keep the poor creature from suffering too much he spread his wings over it to shade it from the worst of the sun and heat.

"Oops, sorry!" Ezra scrambled to get the pliers from his friends' fishing kit and hand them to Riycan. They had seen the fish, and that was enough. Catching it had been pretty fun as well! Ezra frowned sadly, watching the fish's red gills straining to catch air. He knew that the short time above water probably wouldn't be too harmful, but he hoped that Riycan could get the hook out quickly.

Riycan struggled for about half minute with the hook, fortunately circle hooks were easier to remove than most hooks. Once the hook was gone he tossed the Fish back into the water. Turning he stood and smiled at Tiwaz and Ezra " Well that was pretty cool we caught and relased the fish all togeather like a team." Even though he couldn't call the catch his own Riycan had helped and it had been fun with everyone working togeather to catch a golden prize even if they couldn't keep it.
Tiwaz suddenely beamed at Ezra and grinned " Hey since we worked togeather to fish like we asked maybe now we can help you catch minnows until you have to go home. As long as I dont have to swim I can go in the water" Tiwaz offered.
( heading off for the night)

The fish seemed stunned for about a second, then it whisked its tail and disappeared into the lake. Whew. Ezra straightened up and grinned at Riy and Tiwaz, proud of their efforts to catch the fish. Kind of pointless, maybe, but fun. He turned to Tiwaz and considered her offer to help. "Nah, that's okay. It's not s'much fun as fishing, anyways." Besides, the three of them together would probably splash so much that all the minnows would be frightened away from the water's edge!

Tiwaz nodded and sat back down on the dock avoiding any wet spots. " My hands still hurt so I'm gonna takea break for afew minutes you an try again if you want you could catch somethign you could take hoem if you wanted." she offered. After the events of the other dayTiwaz herself was somewhat surprised at her complacenetesss especially since she'd initally been mad at Ezra for leavingher for so long. Perhaps the tension at the shop had been becuase of the shop and Sylvester and Elena's name reminding her of the twins. Or perhaps between the near fight there and the struggle with the golden fish she simply didn't have the energy to be miserable.

Oblivious to Tiwaz' inner conflict, Ezra took up the rod and cast clumsily. He was a bit out of practice at fishing. One thing was for sure: Tiwaz' lucky catch had been a fluke. Ezra swiftly grew bored with watching the bobber and laid Tiwaz' pole down on the dock. "That was pretty cool, Tiwaz, but I think I should be going home now," he said, careful to keep his tone neutral. He didn't want Tiwaz to be offended.

Tiwaz frowned slightly but nodded " Ok but you have to promise not to dissapear again." She too was growing bored and would probably go home soon too with out without her brother.

Ezra grinned and waved goodbye. "I hope not! 'Bye, Tiwaz, I'll see you soon." And with that, he slithered away from the dock, heading homewards. Maybe he would stop at a pond on the way home and get some more minnows for Bernd.
