Who: Muirin; anybody. Mingle about.
When: Day 123; forward-dated! All afternoon to evening.
Where: Outside, near the river.
What:

[ It's an uneasonably hot day today, Thusia; while our lizagon friends might be taking part in the warmth from their places on and in the dome, for what the recent weather has been the cloudless sky seems almost like a curse.

Down near the river, it's much better; the water itself is blessedly cool. Perhaps a swim day wouldn't be out of the question? After all, it's beautifully clear until it becomes slightly murkier in the middle... it's hard to see how deep it is, down there. Careful, now.

Those who swim juust a bit farther from shore may notice a figure curled up under the shade of some piled-up stones, though... and not too far from that, a horse-like creature drinking from the shallows as if it were not briny in the least. ]

( OOC: Take a dip, Thusia! The current near the middle of the river will be dangerously fast, and Muirin will snag anybody in trouble or who bothers her! )

[what if I'm looking for fish in here? Wading around the shallows in a pair of shorts, checking out the water]

[ The shallows likely have small, tiny fish fry clustered around plantlife; they dart away at the slightest movements.

They probably wouldn't make good snacks anyway. ]

[is setting up fish traps in the river, pants rolled to the knee.]

You are so tiny, fishies.

[ w/e w/e i'm gettin a motherfuckin tan

Laying out on a towel on the bank. Completely naked. aw yeah. ]

[Tempest wades right in, trusting the blood of his charm not to wash away.]

[is actually taking a swim, though staying moderately near the shore -- even without the stone weighing him down, Zel is a pretty clumsy swimmer. lack of practice]

[... But. I don't have a swimsuit. But it's hot outside. Except people will see me. Except it's hot outside.

After a few minutes of deliberation, staring at the river like it's killed her family and burnt her house down and eaten the pudding she had saved in the back of the fridge, she goes on ahead and gets in, swimming.

With all of her clothes on, yes.]

[

we're sorry :( ]

[Neesan please]

... Is that truly necessary?

[ The horse-creature lifts its head to watch, nostrils flaring. ]

[ it feels awesome. At the immediate shore, the current hardly even exists as more than a gentle drift. ]

You can probably catch your own fish. You don't need me doing so.

[ It's a lovely day. You might notice that if you're not careful, the gentle river current causes you to drift a little downstream... ]

[ you're going to drown before you even hit the current, what is wrong with you ]

[ It snorts, drawing its head back; it seems offended by the implication it needs help. ]

[goes deeper until the water's about up to his chest, then digs his feet into the bottom, anchoring himself into the- well, whatever's down there.]

So much for catching a meal...

[ignores this]

[is careful to keep relatively near HQ]

[YEAH SHE'S KIND OF

NOTICING THAT......

But more than that she is probably noticing the black bra showing through white blouse because as it turns out, that is what happens when fabric gets wet

So what if she just. Goes back when no one's looking, strips down to her underwear really quickly, and then swims like a normal person. To the pony. Because there is a pony and it's a cute pony and it's amazing the things you notice when you're not trying not to drown.]

[WTF... I don't have an icon that quite capture's Zel's discomfort at surprise female nudity]

...

...

Don't you have clothing?

[ The current is only a little stronger here; nothing abnormal.

His feet sink into mud and silt, cooler than the surrounding water. ]

[just gonna hang out like this because +_+]

[ Sucks for you, huh.

Much farther out, there's a heavy splash of... something. And then it's quiet again. ]
