Viper flicker her ear a bit in acknowledgment, not wanting to move any body part that was already in the water. "Good," I wouldn't want to be saying all this for nothing, now would I? "I'm just going to explain the rest now-- since it'll be a bit hard while I'm trying to make my catch," the cream tabby said, her green gaze fixated in the fish as it moved a whiskerlength forward, "You get your free paw in the water gently-- remembering to keep your claws sheathed. After that you swipe at the fish as fast you can, and only unsheathe your claws once they're close to your target. Once it's hooked, you fling the fish towards the shore with as much force as you can," as soon as she was done with the explanation she followed her own interactions. Her paw glided through the water with little restraint, her claws getting a good hold on their silvery prey before she flung it out of the water, the creature ending up flopping around just next to the waterline. Moving swiftly, she picked up the fish between her jaws and bite down until it ceased writhing and became limp. Satisfied that her prey was dead, she dropped it at her feet. "I hope you got everything-- I really don't feel like repeating myself," Viper said, tracing her tongue around her lips to clean them of blood.

Celestia looked down at the fish. She looked up to face Viper. She nodded. "Yeah, I got all of it." She meowed. 'I wonder if it's as easy as Viper made it look and sound... Probably not. I'll need to work on not being as loud as thunder.' She mentally noted. 'I'm not exactly discreet on land... I'll need to work on it.' She dipped her head. "Thank you for the lesson." 'I still don't know why you did it....' She looked towards the river. Celestia hesitated. "Do you think I should try it on my own?" She asked.

((Sorry about the short post))
"Sure," Viper said with a flick of her tabby tail, "if your going to test out fishing it'd be better to have a strong swimmer around. We wouldn't want you drowning, now would we?" she said, a slightly amused look gracing her features.

"Yeah, I'd prefer to not drown..." Celestia meowed. She nervously poked the water's surface with her paw. She calmed herself, then slipped into the water with one paw lifted above the water. Not exactly quietly, but she didn't produce the attention that a belly flop or cannonball would've produced. She didn't cause too much disturbance, taking great care to be less loud than she was on land. She scanned the water looked for a fish. Spotting what was similar from earlier, which Viper pointed out was a fish. She swam slowly towards the fish, when she was close enough she swiped at it. Although, she wasn't paying close enough attention to where exactly she was swiping it. Its tail smacked her in the face and the fish escaped.
".... Mouse dung."
