Yo

My name is Matsuoka Rin. I have a girly name but I'm a guy. From this year on I will be studying Physical Education at Shirataiiku and joining the swimteam there. My dorm is Momo Hall.

Some of you might already know my Little sister Gou. I look forward to getting to know everybody!

Well, name aside, liking the ocean... apparently our laughs are quite similar, and we both don't like the cold all that much.

I'm looking forward to going back in summer for some proper time spent at the beach and some surfing.

[free_rin]

I guess there is nothing wrong with that.

Surfing, never actually tried that but I guess it's safer here with less risk of being shark bait.

[rinhirakoba]

Not at all. I definitely don't possess your teeth, that's for sure.

Oh that's right, you were in Australia before. You should try it one day, it's thrilling.

[free_rin]

What can I say - it's a gift XD

I might give it a go sometime, but I don't know I think I might prefer being in the water.

[rinhirakoba]

They seem like they could be very useful.

Well, you end up in the water a lot when you first start. I enjoy swimming as well, you can do it in more places as well.

[free_rin]

Or like I'm the love-child of a demented James Bond villain and the tooth-fairy.

I imagine so - but there is a small but important difference between Swimming and falling into the water. Though riding one of those big waves does always look pretty amazing.

Is that why Yamazaki-kun is training to become a police officer?

Do you specialise in a stroke like the rest of your friends do?

[free_rin]

No clue. You'll have to ask him that. Maybe he thinks he needs the Training to protect himself from me.

Free and Butterfly.

[rinhirakoba]

Yes, you do seem like the dangerous type, Matsuoka-kun. Particularly to him.

Oh how nice.

[free_rin]

Are you going to protect him from me, Hirakoba?

It's what I'm most comfortable with. I swim my best times in Free though.

[rinhirakoba]

Haha, he might need me to. Maybe if he asks nicely enough, I'll step in.

I enjoy swimming free the most as well.

[free_rin]

I'll go easy on him for you then.

We should have a race sometime.

[rinhirakoba]

Oh no, don't go easy on him. He doesn't deserve it.

That's hardly fair. I'm quite sure you'll defeat me soundly. I only swim for fun.

[free_rin]

All right then.

Have you ever swam in a relay?

[rinhirakoba]

No I haven't. I only really swim by myself and never competitively. Just for fun.

[free_rin]

A relay is fun!

[rinhirakoba]

... I see...
