Sio 4
Having water splashed at her made her flinch away and turn her head, though she wasn't fast enough. Siofra snorted and had to take her thumb out of her mouth to wipe water away from her eyes. When she could see without the blur of water she was glaring toward Zohra.
While she approved of Lynx picking him up like that she wanted him to dunk him into the water now. Not that she said as much. She still didn't talk to many people. If they weren't Ari then they rarely got to hear her voice.

Thea 5
When her son splashed her niece she gave him a disapproving look. Of course Lynx had that one handled so she turned her attention to Sio to make sure she was alright. The little girl seemed to have it in hand as she wiped her face clear. "You alright sweetheart?" She waited long enough to get a nod then looked at Zohra.
"That wasn't nice. You know one of these days she's going to get you back." And wouldn't that be funny to see. Thea shook her head and moved so that she and Siofra were lowered down into the water a bit more. She kept her firm grip but let the little girl enjoy the water.

Zohra 5
When he was picked up and basically hung upside down he squealed with laughter. To him this was fun because he got to play with his brother. Through a fit of giggled he looked at Lynx. "She can't be afraid of the water! We live by it!" To him it made no sense to fear something so close by when they were in it all the time.
When his mother scolded him a little he stuck his tongue out some. "No she won't! Sio is too nice!" Ever since he could remember he's only ever seen his cousin be nice or shy. There was no way she could do anything mean.

Lynx 5
He rolled his eyes at his little brother. "She can still be scared of something. Silly." And Lynx would make sure his little cousin wasn't afraid of anything. He took on the big brother role rather seriously. Even with the brat that he had currently in his grasp. When Zohra said that Sio was too nice he lifted a brow. "Oh? then I'll have to be mean for her." He smirked as he lowered his little brother, head first, into the water then let go.
He laughed as he watched his limbs flail. He knew Zohra could swim well and the water wasn't that deep, so he figured the boy would be okay.

Sio 5
She was less than thrilled with the whole thing. Zohra was such a brat. Though when she was lowered into the water he was temporarily forgotten. Instead her attention went to the water as it engulfed her lower half. Siofra didn't panic but she kept her eyes on it. When it stopped at her waist she took a deep breath, suggesting she was alright with that.
When she looked back up she caught the tail end of Lynx saying he could be mean for her before he dropped Zohra into the water. She smiled at that with a bit of satisfaction before she busied herself with trying to reposition on her aunt's hip and reach out to play in the water.

She was pleased to see Sio relaxing a bit with the water. Of course she had to keep her eyes on her two boys as well. Seeing Lynx drop his brother into the water made her give him a look. "Lynx. Be nice to your brother." She scolded him. Of course she knew it was all in fun but she wasn't as thrilled about the younger one being dropped while upside down.
When she looked back at Siofra she smiled. "Did you want to try swimming on your own?"

Lynx 6
He looked up at his mother when she told him to be nice. "That was nice!" He claimed while laughing. When he looked at his cousin he gave her wink like it was their little secret that he'd dunked Zohra for her. Afterward he looked down and chuckled when he saw his little brother coming back to the surface.
He put on an innocent face. "Have a nice dip did ya?"

Zohra 6
It took him a minute to get his bearings in the water but once he knew which way was up he was coming back to the surface. Zohra didn't panic like so many inexperienced swimmers would have. Instead once he was out of the water he splashed at his big brother. "No! That was unfair!" He'd had no warning! That was sneaky.
He moved as quickly as he could to latch onto Lynx and try to push him over into the water.

Sio 6
She smiled at Lynx when he winked at her. She was pleased with Zohra being dunked. It served him right for splashing her in the first place. However, her attention went back to her aunt when the question was asked. She quickly shook her head.
Siofra didn't want to swim by herself. She was content to be held while halfway in the water. That was enough for her at the moment. Anything more and she might start to panic.

She didn't press her niece anymore after that. She simply nodded her head and waddled around in the water but didn't go out any farther. She kept her eyes on her sons too, since they were now rough housing in the waves. Thea shook her head a few times at them but said nothing to correct them since Lynx was making sure to stop Zohra when he got too rough or excited.

Lynx 7
His brother tried to get him to fall but it didn't work. "Easy. You'll lose your footing and fall if you try too hard." He picked his little brother up and twirled him around a bit before setting him down in the water a few feet away from him. Since his mother didn't want them to dunk one another anymore.
He chuckled a bit at his brother's look. "What? Not my fault you're so tiny." That got him to chase Lynx around some and it was entertainment for all.

Zohra 7
He squealed at being twirled around. It was fun to play with his older brother in the water. Of course when he was set down a few feet away he looked at Lynx like he had just said something stupid. When his size was mentioned he went to chase Lynx. "You take that back! I'm not tiny!" Never mind that he was small because of his age. He always said he'd be as tall as their dad when he got older and there was no convincing him otherwise.

Sio 7
The commotion with her cousins drew her attention again. Of course she caught the comment about Zohra being tiny and it made her smile. She was younger than him but they were roughly the same size. Which to her was funny.
So when the boy started to chase the bigger one around it just made it more obvious how small he was in comparison. Siofra watched for a while before she rested her head against her aunt's shoulder and gave a small yawn. The day had been exhausting already and she wanted a nap.
