[Now that they're at the beach proper, Daifuku can probably go free for a bit: Atsushi only brought the leash so he doesn't have to keep an eye on the cub and/or chase after it the whole time. But Atsushi can keep an eye on Daifuku here and now - and those seagulls deserve a feline chasing after them, anyway.]
Not a beach like this, no. Of course we were at the coast often enough, and Yamashita Park is such a nice place to be, even not counting the ocean...
[For now, Atsushi keeps his feet dry. Further down the beach, Daifuku chases after a seagull a little too enthusiastically, and, not paying attention to the sea (or, rather: just not used to it), startles himself by suddenly ending up paw-deep in water, rushing to get out due to the shock more than because it's unpleasant.]
... It was a great place to be - the ADA, that is. But, at the same time... I feel like I'm a part of something bigger, here. That was pretty scary at first, but I think it also means I can do more good here.
[Which was exactly the scary part, of course: doing more good also means more chance of failing horribly and proving himself worthless. That still plays in the back of his mind sometimes, but the longer he manages to keep it as nothing but background noise, the more confident he manages to be.]
