[Things for the twins have been rocky since Nadia's return to Mayfield. Margot hasn't been forthcoming with her involvement in Westport, it seems Nadia is hiding something about home, the death threats, Samantha's note and Netherlands' death. They haven't had much of a chance to relax, but today, they're putting all of that aside, ditching any

[Sup, have a shaky nation just

walking in the same direction. He was told by a droned Roshia to go to the pool and get out of the house--seeing as he sulked around the house most of the day--and make some new friends. But he picks up on this talking of 'can't swim', which catches his interest because guess what?

He can't swim either.]

U-Um...

[followyouthere]

Yeah, hi. Can we fucking help you with something?

[tooshallpass]

[Nadia smacks her sister on the shoulder with a disapproving look.] Don't be rude and language please!

My apologies. She doesn't get out of her cage very often.

[bawlingforsoup]

N-No, it's o-okay... I-I'm used to t-that, miss.

I-I just... I-I couldn't h-help overhearing t-that you couldn't s-swim. I-It's okay...

[lasersallover]

You can't swim?!

[followyouthere]

No, I fucking can't. You want to make something of it?!

[PUNCHING IS IMMINENT.]

[tooshallpass]

Will you calm down? We're supposed to be taking it easy today, remember?

[lasersallover]

Yeah! I also hear being stressed out will make you sick!

[They may spot Arcueid running down an intersecting street like a little kid, with her arms out to the sides and everything. She'll disappear around the corner...before backtracking and waving at the two of them.]

[She trots right up, acting as if nothing was going on. Was she up to something before?]

Where are you two heading off to?

[Arcueid's behaviour is fast becoming normal and they're just not going to ask. Sometimes it's better not to know.]

Nadia's taking me to the pool because she hates me. Isn't that right, Nadia?

[tooshallpass]

Oh, yes. You are just the worst. [Elbows Margot lightly in the ribs.]

I finally convinced her to let me teach her to swim.

[makemebreakfast]

[Arcueid gives the both of them a bit of a surprised look...then makes a few small sounds that are distinctive of someone holding back laughter.]

You...don't know how to swim?

AT THE POOL

[child_abuser]

[Look who's swimming laps LIKE A BOSS]

1/2 AHHHHHHHH <3

[followyouthere]

[Why does it have to be this guy at the pool?! Margot nearly turns around and stomps right on out, but Nadia gently catches her elbow.]

We're doing this another day. I'm not fucking swimming with that jerk.

[tooshallpass]

Margot! He's just as entitled to swim here as you are. And beside that, you really do need to learn!

[child_abuser]

Yeah, c'mon in. I don't bite. You got enough attitude to be a blitzer, but it ain't gonna do you any good if you can't swim.

[Guess whose floating in the pool!

Is he dead?

Is he relaxing?

Or is he just so drunk he passed out in the pool?

He at least had swim trunks on.]

[Both girls just stare in horror before Nadia dives in, swimming to drag/float The Captain closer to the pool's edge, Margot trying (rather unsuccessfully) to pull him out to dry land.]

[heartstar_blues]

[He'd slowly wake up... and then start coughing and splashing. Yep, was the most likely event. He had been drunk. He had no clue what was going on and now made it difficult.]

[tooshallpass]

[Nadia barely manages to dodge an elbow and ducks around The Captain, pulling herself out of the pool.

With Margot's help, they'll try to each grab an arm to pull him out.]
