[Her nails scrape lightly against the door to Signless' room as she knocks. She's decided it's time they did something together! Something that can help them forget for a moment that this tower is as awful a place as it is. She smiles, leaning back and waiting for someone to answer the door, and she hopes he's in his respiteblock. If not, she'll just have to go exploring for him. Either way, she's determined to steal him away for the day. She also hopes it'll put to rest how much she's missed him.]

Signless?

Comments

[scriptures]

[In her enthusiasm to catch the one he points out, she ends up... in the water herself. There's a yelp as she skitters back out of it, looking all for the world like a drowned cat. She didn't manage to catch the fish either, pretty much only succeeding in scaring the ones near the side off entirely.]

[benigncancer]

[Ack! He reaches to help her out, nervous of the water, but she manages to get out of the water easily without his help.

Soft growl.] This is stupid. There's got to be a better way.

[scriptures]

[She pulls her hair over her shoulder to twist the water out.]

Do you have any ideas? I think I could do it given time, but it may take a while for them to come back to the edge. Unless you were interested in going for a swim today.

[benigncancer]

[He thought for a few moments] I could bribe a sea dweller to get it for me.

[scriptures]

I suppose that might work. Who did you have in mind, Signless?

[benigncancer]

Uh... I don't know. [He laughs awkwardly] I don't think any of the nice ones are still here. I was just kidding.

[scriptures]

[She frowns. She thought maybe he was talking about one of the young trolls, since all the ones she's met so far have been nice.]

Oh. I wonder if there are any spears around. If not, we'll just have to jump in there and catch them ourselves.

[benigncancer]

[He was talking about Feferi, whom he hasn't seen in ages. He thinks for a minute, then looks at her.]

What if you jumped in and I held on to you?

[scriptures]

That might work. We might as well give it a try?

[She eyes the water a little warily. She's not the biggest fan of water, if they were being honest here. But she's got a good chance of being able to catch them, she wagers.]

[benigncancer]

[He's just as wary, but he points out a place where a little school of the fish has settled in and is nibbling on some coral]

Maybe there...?

tags late shamefully

[scriptures]

[Her eyes follow his vision, and she nods.]

Alright! Don't let go of me, okay?

[benigncancer]

[His expression softens] I'll never let you go.

[Shameless romantic? It is him.]
