Ann Tachibana likes running on the sand of the beach. Yes, it sucks to wash off the sand itself from your feet later in the shower, and it's not easy to wash it off your shoes and socks - but Lord, it brings such a strong feeling of liberty to her soul, that she'd never change a good run on the seaside for anything.

It's even better when someone else joins her in this mental trip to Fantasy Land. Sometimes it would be Kamio-kun or Momoshiro-kun - if she's able to drag either one or both of them out of the tennis courts. Her older brother, much as he loved beaches too, would usually prefer to walk slowly instead of running and playing, to appreciate ther beauty of his surroundings and how his footprints were marked on the sandy grounds. He didn't have his sister's playful spirit, at least on the outside...

Now that she's almost an adult, Ann loves even more to run on the beach, whenever her university and tennis club schedules allow her to do so. Because there's someone else willing to run by her side, do it playfully despite her natural shyness, and laugh happily when the cold watery waves reach her toes and wash the small, delicate footprints she left some seconds ago away...

"Ann-san! Wait for me, you're going too fast...".

And when Sakuno gets tired and stops, Ann immediately goes to her side and holds her girlfriend in her arms tenderly, cradling the younger woman against her chest...

To Hell with whoever is watching them - because the seaside is their little own world... and they're two princesses who will, sooner or later, take it by storm.
