*Gawain seemed to be doing a little better since they made land and clumsily grabbed the shovel in his hand, sticking it in his mouth. Finding it covered in sand, he made a smacking noise with his mouth, trying to get rid of it.*

*Malefica sat down with her son, and brushed the sand away from his little tongue.*
"Awwww. Poor little sweetheart. There, isn't this much better?"
*She kissed him lovingly, and started building a sandcastle for him. She decorated it beautifully with shells, too large for him to put in his mouth.*

*Malefica laughed and gave her son some more toys to play with. She had brought him the toy car Merlin had given him, a bouncing ball with rich colors, and some other toys. She placed them around him in the sand, letting him decide which toy he wanted to play with.*
"There, sweetie. Now you can play."

*Malefica laughed and looked at Gawain. He was so cute. Pleased with the easy things in life. She wondered slightly if he was trying to tell her something.*
"It tickles, doesn't it?"
*She laughed and filled her hands with sand, allowing it to slide between her fingers.*

*Malefica laughed. When Gawain was happy, she was happy.*
"So, Gawain, should we build a sandcastle together?"
*She showed him how to fill a bucket with sand, using a shovel.*

*When Malefica sat there, admiring her child while he played in the sand, a tiny fish came jumping through the water surface. It flew a couple of feet through the air before splashing back into the water.*

*Malefica smiled warmly when she saw her son smiling. Then she lifted him up in her arms.*
"Are you hungry, sweetie? You haven't had your breakfast today."
*She offered him her chest, hoping he wasn't too seasick after the boating trip.*
