All right. Next time we have a flood, my boots should be safe and no longer needed as boats. Though I wonder if he can really stay on the surface after just yesterday's training. Maybe we should keep practicing...

Brother, I used your towel to dry off the dog after I gave him a bath earlier. You don't mind, right?

More practice couldn't hurt for him. He did a pretty good job, though.

[only78percent]

Yeah, he did. I think it would've been even better if he hadn't tried drink the water while he was swimming, though. He doesn't seem to be too good at multitasking... it's either drinking or paddling.

[covert_chord]

I'm sure that with practice, he'll manage it. I have faith in him.

[only78percent]

Actually, have you ever seen my brother try to swim?

[covert_chord]

Yes. Why?

[only78percent]

Does he try to drink the water?

[covert_chord]

...No?

[only78percent]

Really? I could swear he tried to when we were little. I was thinking that's where Neil got it from.

[covert_chord]

If he did, then he doesn't do it anymore, as far as I've seen.

[only78percent]

Are you sure?

[covert_chord]

I'm sure.

I think we need to test that. Too bad he's too big to swim in the bathtub...

[covert_chord]

It'll be summer soon enough, and we can all go to the beach then.

[only78percent]

And is the beach full of rabid monster crabs or something like that?

[covert_chord]

Not usually. You'll want to bring a weapon with you just in case--they have showed up before, but as long as you have someone on guard, it's fine.

And you're going to let my brother swim and drink the water there?
