BATHING

[ad_aeternitatem]

[After breakfast its down to the lake to bathe. The rocky edge of the lake does well enough, and in the area tucked under where Lente's Point overlooks, there's a small but still high waterfall where a creek meets it. Splash around, have some fun?

Lente's still hanging back to watch, but don't worry: she promises storytelling can come later.]

[inherbones]

[She's sitting on a rock just in front and to the side of the waterfall. She's stripped down to her undergarments and only kept those because she's learned many seem to take issue with nudity. Tiny beads of water cling to her hair like a thin mist. If anyone believed the kohl-like markings on her face were simply drawn on, here's your proof they're not. While she's stil disturbed by her very mortal self at the moment, she's laughing. Healthy, running water has that effect.]

[derpish]

[It's nice to see someone laughing and having a good time out here, and Cain can't help notice her.

He's still fully clothed himself, looking a bit tired from his night of sleeplessness, but so much more at peace.]

[inherbones]

[She tilts her head to the side and catches sight of him. She makes a slight motion that might be translated as "come hither".]

[derpish]

[It's not often a woman in her underwear gives that signal to Cain, so he obeys with a smile.]

Good morning, miss.

[inherbones]

Good morning.

[If she had her powers, she'd be greeting you by name. Unfortunately, she can't freak out people with that on this trip.]

[derpish]

[He is grateful for the non freakout, holding out his hand to her politely.]

I'm Cain, it's nice to meet you.

[inherbones]

[She glances at it for a moment before placing her hand in his.]

Tia Dalma.

[derpish]

How are you finding the expedition?

[Perhaps she had been on one before?]

[inherbones]

Eye-opening. For now. I hope for more information soon.

[Her eyes flit momentarily in the direction of Lente.]

[derpish]

We all do, that's why we're here.

[Information. Or at least it was a large part of why they were here.]

[inherbones]

Did you seek anyting more?

[She's swiveling on her rock to face him directly and leaning forward slightly.]

[derpish]

[Answers to questions that had nothing to do with Paradisa.]

No, I'm just here for the ride.

[inherbones]

So unentertaining is it in de castle dat you would brave de weird and strange land here?

[derpish]

The last thing you could call the castle is "unentertaining".

[Avoiding that question forever, thanks.]

[inherbones]

So I have heard. And yet so many complain about boredom. Makes one wonder if de castle doesn't do what him does as a response to him resident's state.
