[They never stop moving for too long, even now. They're still creating new identities, new safe houses. Five years later and they haven't returned to the United States for longer than a day at a time. It's much too tricky, even for them. Right now they're working on themselves, offering help where they can. Anyone that needs them will know a way to contact them.

Right now, they've been (officially) dating for a year and a half. It's a bit different, though, when you're with that person almost every waking moment.

And, somehow, they still haven't strangled one another.

This house is a little nicer than the one in Spain; there's a pool. Zatanna's sitting on the edge of it with her legs dipped into the cool water, the rest of her body laying back on the ground. Her eyes are closed, but she's not sleeping.]

[doubleoohbaby]

Getting you wet. [Innuendo and a pun, judging by his tightening and lack of hesitation as he tips them both forwards towards the pool. She can't throw him in the pool if he throws them both in first.]

[fishnets]

Well th--[Thankfully he bothered to make sure she wasn't flailing about or, you know, accidentally drowning. She doesn't stay under for long, quickly paddling to the surface. Slicking back her hair, she waits. And she glares. Someone's going to wake up in the middle of the night on a mattress in the middle of the pool...]

[doubleoohbaby]

[James pops back to the surface immediately, flicking his head back to rid himself of water. And there's so much loling.]

[fishnets]

[She immediately cups her hands together and sweeps water toward him, then (like the cheater she is) makes sure to dump a good bit on his head via magic.]

[doubleoohbaby]

[There's some sputtering and a mild flick of water back towards her, but it's not enough to wipe away that smugness.]

[fishnets]

[Very few things are enough to wipe away James' smugness. She's trying not to play too dirty, though.] Oh, it's on.

[Wading toward him, she means to tackle him.]

[doubleoohbaby]

[Holding his arms out like he expects a hug.]

Come here.

[fishnets]

What kind of fool do you take me for? [One that's still moving toward him?]

[doubleoohbaby]

An exceptionally talented and attractive one. [Buttering her up might work...?]

[fishnets]

You're going to wait until I'm close enough and then you're going to dunk me, aren't you. [She's still moving closer, finally within the range that he, you know. Can dunk her. If he wants to. He shouldn't want to.]

[doubleoohbaby]

[That had crossed his mind...] Now you've ruined the surprise.

[fishnets]

Heartbreaking for you, I'm sure. [It's now or never, James.]

[doubleoohbaby]

Entirely. [But wait. He's shifting forward to... ... HUG!]

[fishnets]

[...what's going on here.]

[doubleoohbaby]

[Snuggle!] Forgive me.
