[ Otome lets out an undignified snort in an attempt to suppress a laugh, carefully rolling up her skirt to splash off to the side and hold the tube steady. ]
Here, you first. You're just going to have to hold me.
[ There's a vague moment of embarrassment, and I'm going to handwave the finagling and rearranging to get them both on the tube, but after a little splashing and struggling, they're settled and.
Claude thinks that he's a little more tense than the lazy river is supposed to be. ]
[ He lets the tension out with a breath, relaxing back onto the tube and trying to to think about Certain Things lest this ride because uncomfortable in a way he can't recover from.
[ He hums, letting his head fall back and his eyes closed. There's still a wavering embarrassment from him, but also a kind of wonder. He hasn't really led the type of life that would suggest closeness like this. ]
I have no idea. Maybe they all had a certain threshold of vouchers they needed to reach? Chad was worried about Sally though, so I'm glad that she broke free.

[ Steadily, his mood seems to improving, playfulness kicking in as he slides off his school jacket and toes off his shoes and socks. ]
Going back to the dorm is too much effort.

In the same tube?

... It's going to be a fairly intimate fit. Are you sure you can handle that?

[ ??? ]
You can float along in a second tube if you prefer.

... [ She sighs, then slips off her shoes and sweater and also peels off her tights. ]
No, this is fine. I'll let you take responsibility.

It fades a little as he pulls a tube out, holding it in place so that Otome can hop on first. ]

... Perhaps I didn't think this through.
no subject
I did warn you. You're joining me, right?
no subject
[ He nudges her thigh, realising that it's going to be a struggle not to topple the tube over.
He places his foot on one side, and watches it steadily sink into the water.
The vibes are confused. ]

... You might've been right.

Are you regretting it a little, perhaps?

[ He lets the tension out with a breath, relaxing back onto the tube and trying to to think about Certain Things lest this ride because uncomfortable in a way he can't recover from.
It's really kind of nice. ]
Are you okay?

We just had to adjust properly, but it does feel nice, doesn't it?

The warmer weather is nice. Even if it's sudden.

[ She also closes her eyes, leaning back against him. ]
no subject
Same here. Though Sally and the others don't seem to think there's anything strange about it.

Did she mention anything helpful?
