A fine evening at the pool, just after 8. A time when the pool is seeing a slow ebb in use by the population of Kingsdale. But amongst the few still enjoying the water, there is Vyvian. She moves about the water with more ease than most, currently swimming a smooth zigzagging path from one end to the other across the widest length of the large pool. She surfaces on the deep end, a hand lifting to casually catch on the edge. A light, husky laugh bubbling up. As is the case often times she swims clothed, such as she is ever clothed, her winter garb and gear locked away.
Cassius finally has a swim suit and he decides to head into the pool, giving a low grunt and he takes a look at who might be here in the pool. Hrm...Vyvian is of course, noddin that he'll notice her and he slides into the shallowier end of it.
Vyvian is distracted a moment, casually splashing a little water at a youth who gives her a strange look. With a casual grin she shoves off from the side and dives under again, a brief dip before she comes back up and surveys the water. Spotting Cassius then as he's sliding in, her grin grows and she casually paddles her way towards him. "Hey there, honey. Feelin' better today?" Asked as she comes near, letting her feet touch bottom, knees bent to keep her up to her neck in the water.
Cassius floats lightly in the water and he jsut bobs his head a little bit. He thinks and sees you swim over, "hey...ya I guess I'm feeling ok. I'm just...ya know...floating." he says as he keeps bobbing up and down, "Better then being outside, ya"
Vyvian bobs her head in a light nod. "Good enough them. I'm kinda wonderin' why you went off before, but I figured maybe you were lookin' to relax somewhere or somethin'. At least, that's what I hope it was. Don't want you thinkin' you have to run off or nothin'." Her brows lift, eyeing him as she speaks.
Cassius shakes his head, "Well I mean...uh...I mean no. It was...that guy Max, he kept talking to you. So I kinda thought...talkin to and ab out you...biog guy, that you wanted to ya know hang out I guess..." he shrugs to you and gives a faint lick of his lips.
Vyvian chuckles huskily and shakes her head. "Just cause some other guy comes up and starts talkin' to me, don't mean you should go. I can talk to more than one at a time, yeah?" She grins toothily. "So now you know and the next time you don't gotta be feelin' like you should go just cause someone else comes around, talkin'."
Cassius gives a little shrug, "Well it's just that...ya know, he's pretty big, I don't know exactly what to say to him." he says as he'll go to rub the back of his head, "I dunno." he says finally and shrugs. "I honestly don't know"
Vyvian grins, ducking under the water after Cassius has spoken, slipping around to get behind him before she pops up again, hands coming up to casually lay against his shoulders. "He's just a big ole fluffy, honey. Might seem larger than life, but he's a sweetie too. So you don't gotta worry none. Besides, with me there it woulda been easier." She squeezes lightly on his shoulders. "Gotta buck up and get more confident, you know?"
Cassius huhs as you duck in and he turns back to look around and then he'll feel your hands wrap over his shoulders, "Hey now...come on..." he says with a swallow. "Uh...ya...well confidant, what do you mean confidant, it's just..." he stops moving as you hold onto him.
Vyvian grins, head tilted to look over Cassius' shoulder. "Confident, honey.. talkin' to people that are big and scary, gettin' your words out nice and smooth. Ain't good when I gotta ask you what you was about to say, is it?" Sure, she might be saying critical things, but that positivity in her doesn't wane and her husky voice remains light. "I don't mean to down on you, honey. I'm just thinkin' of what's best for you, yeah? Ole Vyvy wouldn't try and steer y a wrong."
Cassius coughs, "Ya I dunno...I just don't want to talk with huge guys, and juicers, and what not..." he says watching your fingers, wincing and he finally tries to pull away a little, "Ya know...I dunno what Im doing anymore, mabey the witner is getting to me"
Vyvian lets him pull away, though she'll casually bat a light spray of water his way as she says, "Maybe you oughta figure it out, honey. Ain't no problem talkin' with Max. That's the big fella. And I don't suppose those juicer fellas are too bad.. well, the really big ones don't seem to watch where they're goin' so you gotta watch that and that guy you mentioned.. anyone that always has weapons like that is to be watched close, no matter what they is."
Cassius ahs at the spray of water and he sighs, "I dunno again, I guess I need to find...fuck, I don't know...someone else to talk to, a girlfriend or somthing..." he gives another faint shake of his head, "I dunno." he says and keeps floating in the water, "Well fuck...lord if I know" he moves to lean back in the water.
"Oh, honey, I could tell that when you were liftin' weights," Vyvian replies, unable to keep a gentle tease out of her voice. No, she hasn't forgotten that. "We ain't really like that, but you can talk to me 'bout anythin' you want, y'know. I figure we're good enough friends at the moment." She remains immersed in place for now, watching Cassius casually.
Cassius keeps lightly swimming, if he got the tease he doens't show it, just floating, "Nothing but that I guess...I don't think I've actually done anything the months I've been here." he swishes through the water, "I dunno..."
Vyvian grins toothily and dips under the water again. Though there is no funny business this time before she resurfaces nearby. "What'd you wanna do? If you don't got nothin', mebbe you could go help[ Kalvin with his things in the Dregs. Lotsa people that could use help in there.. and it ain't like you gotta know much. I'm helpin' out there and I ain't all that deeply learned."
Cassius shakes his head, "What does he do?" he asks simply as he just kinda looks over at you, staring. He doens't know...doens't know at all what exactly he's donong here, just watching you and giving a slow low breath out, and sprays some water out of his mouth, "I dunno"
Vyvian drifts casually as she talks. "He's a fixer, I suppose. Healin' bodies, I mean. Got some folk down there helpin' but there's a lot of people that come lookin' for help. Mebbe it will die out a bit as time goes on, but I dunno." She grins, shoulders given a casual roll. "Penny for you thoughts, honey? Someone taught me that one a bit ago."
Cassius shakes his head, :Nah...no penny, I mean..." he sighs, "I think I should just go lay out in my ...in my room, I guess I shouldn't have come and interuppted your swim." he says with a wet of his lips and then he moves to stand up in teh pool. "hey thanks for talkin I guess"
Vyvian grins and shifts, a casual sweep fo arms sending her right at Cassius. She'll look to latch onto him again, this time from the front, face to face. "You go do that, honey, but maybe you think a bit while you do. Not sure what you oughta think 'bout, that's all in your head, but you oughta think and maybe make some decisions, cause ole Vyvy thinks you got some things you ain't figured out yet." She grins and lightly pats his shoulders. "You come see me later. Maybe here.. maybe at the stables, cause I'm there sometimes too, visiting my little Olyn. Ok?"
Cassius acks a little bit as you sweep in front of him, and he stops, looking at you, and he rubs the back of his head as he doens't push forward. Simply resting in front of and he ohs, "come see ya sometime? Ya...ok, I guess I could do that...mabey...where's the stables?"
Vyvian seems lightly amused as she looks at Cassius. "Out at the landing strip, just outside the city. Ain't too hard to find once you get there. Just ask one a the folk that work there for me or Olyn. I go there everyday so they know me a bit." One of her hands lifts and she casually ruffles Cassius' wet hair. "Be good, don't talk to not strange juicers." She chuckles huskily, then lightly pushes off from Cassius, slipping back under the water. A shallow arc swum before she surfaces again and gives him a casual wave.
Cassius waits till you leave, watching you swim away and then he sighs, ya, that's some confusing feeling. Just moving to get out of the pool and head out. Tags: cassius, vyvian
