Sunshine Dust, the golden squid, frolics closer to shore today. There were so many people to play with in the lake yesterday! And squids need love and attention too

Barbara is sitting in her chair looking out over the lake when something green catches her eye. She rolls over for a closer look, then grins as she recognizes the cut and color. Someone was wearing these yesterday, and won't they be embarrassed to know that she knows they were lost.
She scoops them up laughing and goes back to staring out across the lake.
Babs hasn't slept, but she's used to not sleeping. The massive mug of coffee helps. She looks up at Steph and grins, "Hey, you. What'd you do last night after I wandered off?"
"Oh, this and that," Steph says, and gives her a quick grin. "Swimming. Talking. Still drinking. I'd be sleeping still, only I don't think the sun will last for ever, and it's so nice out here." This last is breathed wistfully. It's been winter for so long! Steph likes the sun. For all they don't get much of it at home.
Steph giggles, and goes a little pink. "Well... there was kinda skinnydipping involved. And then Goldy thought it'd be funny to throw them away, only I couldn't find them..."
She scoops them up laughing and goes back to staring out across the lake.

...Well, she liked the green one better, but it got FLUNG AWAY.
She may die if she realises Babs knows this.
It'd be quite funny.
"Good morning," she offers, drifting up all unawares.

Her eyebrows draw down seriously, "I don't know. I mean... I wouldn't want to get lost in the lake or anything."

...how could she know? That must just be coincidence.
"...uh?"

"Hey, weren't you wearing a Robin-green bikini yesterday? Do you have a whole collection of Robin-colored bathing suits?"

"Yesterday's was Goldy's. I didn't even own one before today. I totally had to get this one from Bar this morning."
... because ... well, no need to explain why, right? Maybe she just wanted a change!
