So just imagine Peter Potamus heading into a moonlight dive in the reef just beyond the shore:

Every month around the full moon, Zane’s magic always felt different, almost like it was stronger and wanted to be used. When they were younger, they just tolerated it since it would stop once the full moon passed. Then, one night while visiting their mother, they had the urge to go swimming and decided to act on it since no one was awake to see.

Much to their surprise, this ended up being exactly what they needed to help with the restlessness the full moon caused and they tried to make a habit of it. It was a little more difficult to do once they got back to the Academy since there weren’t many private spots for them to swim, but they eventually managed to find one and so began a monthly ritual of swimming during the full moon.

They hadn’t been sure if they’d be able to do it this month since they were at Cas’, but then they remembered the swimming hole he’d shown them not long after they met. They were going to try to ignore it and just lay with Cas, but the restlessness was driving them nuts and they weren’t going to be able to sleep unless something changed so they carefully wiggled out of Cas’ embrace and slipped out the door.

They weren’t entirely sure when (or why) they decided to start doing this naked, but they had and it felt weird to even think about doing it with clothes on. They pulled the last of their clothes off before laying them off to the side and diving into the water. The feeling of being submerged was amazing and the general restlessness their magic had been forcing them to feel finally began to ease, which was more than enough to distract them from realizing that they weren’t exactly alone.

Cas wakes with his arms empty. He waits for Zane to return by they do not. He listens but there are no movements upstairs. Eventually Cas gets up. No one is in the bathroom. Perhaps downstairs. Cas isn’t worried. He knows Zane can take care of themself. They’ll be fine, wherever they’ve gone.

He pulls on a pair of jeans, not bothering to button them up or pull on a shirt. First Cas looks downstairs, then in the courtyard with Elise’s tree. She’s there. Zane is not. “If Zane looks for me, I think I’ll be at the swimming hole.”

Elise knows what that means. Cas has maybe dreamed of the Sunlight Prince. On one such night he’d gone out there and swum into one cave, finding the moonlight perfectly shone through a crack onto the stone wall. Cas had carved the Sunlight Prince’s name there. For a long time, that cave and Cas’ memory were the sole places the Prince’s name had existed in this world.

The absence ached more painful waking without anyone in his arms. It was why Cas had taken to one night stands. For a night he could hold someone without it meaning anything. The absence was somehow worse, finding Zane gone, but there was no reason for Zane to be in his arms anyway.

When Cas reaches his swimming hole, there’s someone already there. He thought only three other people knew about this place. He moves closer and the moonlight reflects of pale skin, like perfect white marble in the night time light.

Cas is silent and watches for longer than he should. He remembers stories of water nymphs and river gods. He’d known a godborn creature before. Zane looks godborn now.

Finally, Cas steps forward and makes himself known. “Zane.” he murmurs soft.

Let your dreams soar higher than the clouds. Let them dive deeper than the ocean’s depths. Dream. May your heart’s desires someday become your reality, but never stop dreaming.

No doubt the kind of full moon night during the ursine mating season such as the Hair Bears can't help but find magical big time:

(Especially when Hair and Square have deep and exceptionally romantic mating sessions with especially magical females in the shallows aboit waist high)

Peter Potamus' kind of moonlight swim

Full moon night in his favourite haunts--the uncharted side of the Polynesian.

The tide coming in.

The old Luna reflecting in the Pacific's waters.

Peter, with his native girlfriend of the moment, wading in (and naked, as well) and just letting the waves splash all over them, with an occasional swimming-type foray.

(And bound to include some passionate and natural lovemaking in the bargain.)

Nothing sexually happened that night. These two boys were out for a really good time of a moonlight swim. Cajun Country Prairie boys who loved the outdoors and skinny dipping.

An hour of swimming laps; with lots of mosquitoes, the boys gave in. Jimmy asked Johnny if he might like to head out to Pookey’s for a drink, not yet 18 yet, but close enough; they knew the bartender who had just turned 18 himself, a classmate of theirs. He’s at least let them have a rum and coke, without enough rum to make a difference.
