Anybody not out by the bridge will see the barest glimpse of those same long legs thanks to the watch sitting on the rail beside her and broadcasting the object of her attentions;

Honestly, Tim, you're never going to get anything done like that.
[Tilting her head, she arches a brow in consideration.]
Though I must say, I rather fancy you in red.

....HahahahahHaHaHaHAHA. [the blonde man climbs out of the water gracefully, only to perch unnaturally still atop the rim of one of the barrels. His pants drip the ruby red of the river, obviously soaked through and thoroughly stained.]
Done is done when it happens. That's all, not before or after. [At the compliment though he looks at his pants.]
They're wet. [But pretty! ...acceptable.]

[Dil kicks her legs idly, head still tilted as she looks over his handiwork.]
How many is that now... Six? Six here won't do us any good... How do you feel about, say, the clock tower? Doesn't that sound fun? Wouldn't you like that?

[Vash has been out walking. He can't think of anything else to do with himself. It's easier to not think at all. This seems like as welcome a distraction as any. This woman... Something about her bearing makes him a bit suspicious.]

[Now she inclines her head to look up, smiling politely.]
I am sitting.

[She turns to watch the nation over her shoulder, a wry smile quirking at the corner of her lips.]
If you find it so useless though, then I imagine you won't mind what gets done with it.

[He has watched Tim's actions up until the point where the video shuts off, because Rufus ShinRa never goes into anything unprepared.
At least, not without a backup plan.]

[Dil turns a feline smirk on her watch as she scoops it into her hand to regard it directly.]
Though I'm sure you might take a different view, Mister President, before all's said and done... Not fond of somebody else pulling the strings, you.

[Sky-blue eyes turn to the watch's screen, but seem to look straight through; The effect is an alarming one even over the communicator.]
I've seen enough.

From the water's edge, Tim watches the blonde, his fingers playing over a couple of other stones.]
We're busy. busybusybusy.

We're working.
