[Today, Red is out exercising. This is normal, he's got to keep in shape after all. The abnormal part is when he seems to spot something out of the corner of his eye, then immediately turns and sprints off towards the woods, before diving into the river

[In his many wanderings, Scar has to pause as something catches his eye. That happens to be the sight of a human child diving into the river.

He can't help but arch an eyebrow and wander over to the rivers edge a little up stream from where the boy jumped in. Whatever cause this must be interesting. At least, one would hope.]

*Red surfaces after a moment, noticing Scar, but doesn't actually do anything just yet. He swims upstream a bit, before trying to dive down again. If Scar looks down to the river bottom, there is a strange... thing at the bottom, evidently asleep.*

[For once someone didn't go 'Lion!' Which, admittedly was a first. This actually made him more curious. Curious to peer down at where the boy was trying to dive.

What is that...? Whatever it is, how can it be sleeping at the bottom of a river.

Scar settle down and continues to watch, rather curious to see how this will play out.]

*Red surfaces a bit downstream after a moment, the currents under the water pushing him away from his Pokemon too quickly for him to grab him.*

I need more weight, I think...

[scar_not_taka]

Then tie a rock to your waist though might I suggest having the ability to separate yourself from said rock so you may surface again

[He just continues to watch from his position. Really, some people don't realize just how good a lion's hearing really is.]

[burningfighter]

*He considers that for a moment.*

I don't think I have anything to tie it with...

[scar_not_taka]

Then put several pebbles in your pockets or something along those lines. Really, use your head boy. You need weight so the current can not push you around so easily yet away to lessen the weight when you want to get up or you will drown.

Unless for some unknown reason you've perfected breathing underwater.

[burningfighter]

Hm...

Wait, can you swim?

[scar_not_taka]

[Scar makes a face, as if he were just insulted! Lions don't swim and really, he was never one to get his paws wet as a 'good deed' to someone.]

Hardly. There isn't exactly much of a chance to learn such...useless skill in my part of Africa.

[burningfighter]

Oh, really? Well, I guess it can't be helped.

[scar_not_taka]

No, it cannot. All I can offer is advice.

[burningfighter]

Well, even that's helpful. Thanks!

[scar_not_taka]

Of course, an old Lion such as myself needs to help when he can you know.

[burningfighter]

I'm not sure if just my pockets will be enough...

*Looks at his backpack. :|a*
