Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ashori blinked at him a couple times, her face flushed red, but she slowly nodded and looked back in front of herself. After a couple seconds, she raised one hand again, once more dragging her fingers slowly through the water. Her head was tilted to one side, the patch of black hair plastered to the right side of her face, causing water to run down and drip off her chin. She ignored it though, eyes upon her trailing hand. Though, now that her hair was so wet, one could see the two pointed ears sticking out on either side. She hadn't realized they were in view yet. She paused, glancing at Koji at his comment. She wondered for a second if he was talking about her, but didn't ask and simply nodded her head in agreement.

Ashori nodded again, smiling faintly at Koji. "I know," she said softly, though she really hadn't. She still had one arm draped across her stomach to try hiding it, and her other drifting across the water in front of her as her eyes followed it around. Well, eye. The right was shut agains the hair that was covering it. She paused yet again at Koji's words and looked towards him once more. She was silent for a second, and then sighed. "Yes..." she admitted quietly. "But I don't want to..." She didn't finish her sentence, and instead just let herself trail off. Shiro was seated on the edge of the springs, reaching down and pawing at the water. He seemed to be ignoring what the two were doing, but was really keeping a close eye on them.
[Shoot, I have to go to bed. >< Sorry!]

"Oh...I hope there aren't a lot of other people here," Rille murmured as she walked into the changing area at the springs. She stripped quickly, leaving herself standing in a modest, dark green one-piece bathing suit. Choosing a deep area that seemed to be empty, she took a deep breath and dove into the water. Surfacing with a gasp in the center of the pool, she treaded water carefully, since it was too deep for her to touch. She started to relax in the warm water, sometimes slipping back under the water to float there before coming to the surface again.

August smiled nervously. "Uh...hi....Spohie...I'm August....Raine....August Raine.....and Im....uh....new here?" She was always nervous, it was way outside her comfort zone to talk to people she didnt know. But still, as always, she was trying to be better than last year. More....social or something. "You...uh...you coming in?" She asked, feeling naken in her bikini and hoping the dark water was hiding her white flesh.

Rille woke up suddenly as she slipped underwater. Idiot! Falling asleep in the water...She surfaced quickly, gasping, and stood up to get out of the water. "It's definately time to go get some sleep," she told herself, yawning. She streched, and walked slowly back towards the changing room. Letting out another huge yawn, she began to change slowly back into her clothing. Not caring how she looked, she tied her huge skirts into a knot at her hip to get them out of her way. Then, she wrapped a town around her dripping hair, and left the springs.

August lifted her self out of the water, the cold air meating her like a solid brick wall. She shivered, wrapping her arms around herself. She notcied that all of the girls were over on the co ed side (well, mostly all) so she slipped over there, slipping into the warm water opposite from the group and wading around. She quite enjoyed the water and couldn't have asked for more.

Kar stepped into the springs slowly, letting body slowly adjust to the heat of the springs. Soon, he was completly submerged up to his chest. He let out a soft sight and sat down with his back leaning against the edge of the spring. Kar looked around and noticed all the people that were in the springs as well, it was more crowded than he had thought it was going to be, the school he went prior to Raia. In fact, he noticed that it seemed more and more poeple were walking around the school everyday. He actually prefered it over what he was used to. Kar enjoyed more people to less people.
