In Watanabe's story, the sister protagonist absolutely hates swimming in the ocean, but she agrees to go swimming because that is what wild Lulu wants her to do. Lulu likes living on the edge. And in this case, Lulu likes swimming deep water, and ironically much of her life has been lived in "deep water" metaphorically. In contrast, Val in Terada's seems pretty tame and mellow and certainly not living on the edge. But she wants some pot and boldly comes right out and demands it; her protagonist brother reluctantly lets his little sister have some pot. The irony is that Vince planned to give the weed to his sister all along, but he enjoyed teasing her and being around her so much he pretended that he didn't want to give it to her, just so he could hang out with her a bit longer.
