"I learned to swim shortly after my father died. his home was in teh middle of Lake Rathetear. so..it was swim, or try to and drown....or risk being mauled and eaten by a large feline that probably knew the layout of the place better than I ever coudl have. I chose the water."
Lifting his eyes after he bumped into her.
"that's where I learned the basics. after that, yes, learning to swim was part of military learning. special set of a few of us, working through underwater tunnels that lead into Rivervale. and after it's submission, we marched into Kithcor for that fateful battle, the last part of a long war. since then, I hadn't really swam. but apparently, it's not somethign you really forget once you learn."

"In the middle of a lake...that's an interesting location. Though yes very good reason to try and swim before something worse happened." A little sigh...she really didn't like it when he talked about Cymarron that way...though she couldn't defend the creature, knowing that it was in fact true. Piper played with his hair some. Then another splash, "No walks down memory of that sorts dear. We're supposed to be having a good time." Then a giggle. "Swimming, it's like sex. All fluid motion and instinct. Those are things that come naturally and you don't forget...you know them to start off, but you just have to perfect them." Thus more or less kicking around in the water some to his side and draping across his stomach some, more or less using him as floating support, still slightly treading water. "Well, you can expect to do it a lot more, yes? After all, you do like to spoil me."

Eyes moved down, to her using him as a floatation device. Oh lordie the slew of dirty jokes and comments that came up from that image.
"Yes I do enjoy spoiling you, that's a known fact. So I suppose, with a safe body of water, that I'll be spending more time in it."
Trending one hand through the water and musing her hair some.
"You lucky woman you."

A little chuckle from her. "Indeed lucky woman me. You spoil me and I have you all to myself, and have my way with you as I please and whenever I please. Damn striaght poiled." Piper drummed his fingers on his stomach a moment, very much contemplating shoving him under the water just for kicks. But she let that notion pass and backed off of him, disappearing under the water some, barely any bubbles to tell where she was. Coming up at his head behind him again...hands twined into his hair. Oh the horrible water like things she could do to him. "Well I do hope you intend to bond with swimming deep water...because if you want to see all of Andal, you'll have to swim." Dunking him them some before letting him go and dissappearing under the dark water again. Hm, nice to have sea elven companions to teach you nifty water things.

Okay so she got him a bit there. But, one thing she was forgetting. under teh water, in the dark...she coudln't see him nearly as easily as he could her. So down into the water after her, silvery eye shimmering and seeking. the ripples in the water the hint of warmer water from a passing warm body. fish, meet shark.

That creepy feeling of being stalked like prey, ha he was actually taking up the game. See, he still had some play in him. Piper? Currently making herself sink in the water, seeing how far down she could do still. Good thing she could hold her breath for quite a bit of time....though this was quite interesting...it as like floating in b***h black space of nothingness. Yes, cold suspended space. Of course her own eyes caught hint of the flick of silver in all that blackness. She had to hold in a chuckle, lest she loose her breath. How sneaky did he think he was?

Down. all the way, to the depths of the lake to the point of fingers brushing on rock. hurt too. pressure in water not nice. but he coudl feel her amusement through thier bond. oh she was playing, was she...lets give her a bit of a scare, shall we? and the bond slipped to a near closure. ha ha. no finding him with that so easily. now to play the waiting game. at least until his lungs decided not to play anymore.

A little bit of a cringe as toes hit rock unexpectedly. Ow. What this was it? No deeper? Oh fine. Selkor was a lot deeper than this...thus was why it seemed that this wasn't bothering her so much...used to it. Though a little gasp, sucking in some water as well as letting out some of that precious air of hers, evidenced by bubbles. That was playing dirty and just not nice. Not to mention freakish. Fine, she could play dirty. A hand reached to the back of her neck and into silver and red floating strands. Pulling her hand back, she had a little bag in it. Yes, she had been keeping a little pouch tied in her hair where no one could see. Had been since this swimming idea had entered her head. Opening it, she pulled something out and popped it into her mouth, holding it in her cheek for the time being. Ha, let's see now who could win this game. Of course that in mind, and new mischief formed, she took to blindly looking for him in that water.

He waited, patiently. Air was getting a little tight in the lungs there. so a little looking around. hmm. nope, nothing of any real use. sometimes infested waters, so to speak, contained a rare coral that you coudl use like a airpocket. well non of that here. so he let that bond keep near closed, and moved silently, his legs together, using his feet like a whale or dolphin might, and circling around..there. he could see her..but she coudln't see him. then he let thier bond go back to full spectrum, and bolted through the water right behind her, hands darting out and in the name of good fun, squeezing her rear before going up a bit, though still underwater. okay, lungs were starting to rebel now.

Note to self...if planning to swim in underdark water, make sure to fix our eyes fist, yes. At least she didn't have to worry about breathing right now, that was of course a plus. Though she stopped and blinked as channels were opened back up in a snap and crap...there he was. If there was audible sound to be made underwater, a squeal would of come from her, but instead only a lot of bubbles from said unheard squeal. Though she was quick as him and spun around, hand grabbing hold of his ankle as he had gone up. Oh he wasn't getting away that easy. Thus a tug down on him, keeping him from the surface and thus air. Hard ball indeed. But Piper wasn't completely merciless, and thus she floated up to be eye level with him, before giving him that coy look and lacing an arm around his neck. She opened her mouth to apparently take a gulp of water and then pressed her mouth to his and blew out...though air, not water would get pushed into Malik. Look at that, she could process water to oxygen. Nifty indeed. A pull back and another one of those smiles. "I can stay down here all day...how about you?" That challenging tone even to her thoughs. She just liked to mess with him sometimes.

Arthur sighed a little to himself, it had been a good first day to say the least, he met the person that he wanted to and got some of the infromation that he wanted, although it wasn't what he was expecting at least he got it. Now he had to worry about the one he had to fight against, Malik was strong, more stronger than he is at the moment so that means that Arthur has to train harder; maybe even learn how to use more fire spells than the one's he has already learned. Oh well right now he needed to make sure that his presence is welcomed for now until eveyone is alright with him living there.
With a small sigh Arthur leaned his head back in the hay, instead of roaming the hallways he decided to go outside and lay down in a fresh pile of hay with his katana by his side. Though Arthur had fallen asleep and had woken to notice that most of the day has gone by and night time was coming soon. Pssh oh well it's not like no one needs me for anything at the moment... there was a small light ringing noise as Arthur pulled his katana from its sheath. He held it over his face with a small smile as he looked at the wolf dancing across the blade. I'll never give you up...

"You're cheating."
A small smirk, though. he had a spell to big him the ability to not need to breathe. and an item in his vault for that. but that was there, and the spell didn't work well in water, as part of the effects was a small 'bobbing' levitation. after all it was reffered to as dead man floating. so made you bob like you were a body on water. and was annoying as anything.
But, he did take the closeness to give a littel grin, he knew where she had to be hiding whatever it was she was using. in her hair. so his hands went to playing in her hair, till they found a little bag.
So what's in the bag?

"It's using my resources wisely, not cheating." Though a little mental giggle across thier own telepathic link to each other. "Nothing now." Thus she popped two fingers in her mouth and pulled out whitish colored cut of rock, showing it to him before popping it right back in. "That was in there. See what happens when you want me to grow my hair out?" Another mentally recieved chuckle. Of course she was more relying on touch and bonding senses right now, even with him being so close he was hard to see completely. "You're going to run out of air soon..."
Kieran and Fianna had of course more or less lovingly tormenting each other. She would swat him, he'd tickle her, she'd get back at him and it went like that soon and so forth until they were throwing things at each other, hay and feed and what not. Of course when Arthur had made an apperance, they had stopped thier childish little antics and had tried to supress giggles. Now, Kieran was again perched on a bail of hay, writing and sketching in his journal and Fianna was once again lavishing attention on horses, of course there was still the occassional thrown item and what not.

Arthur looked at Kieran and Fianna and slowly sat up to look at them. "You know you don't have to stop playing around because of me, if you want to go ahead and just horse around its good for you." he said with a small smile as he placed his katana away so he didn't seem like he was going to do something with it.
"So you studying the horses Kieran? I see you writing in that journal in your hands." Of course he was curious just like they were of him and wanted to get to know them a bit better so that things weren't akward as the days go on while he was living here.

Fianna blushed a little, unaccomodated to having people watch her be so open and so very unroyal in mannerisms. That's what she got for being so proper all the time, and Kieran just had the ability to undo her and reduce her to everything that she was behind that title. It was cute actually. "Oh it's alright...he's hurt anyway, I shouldn't be bothering him too much."
Kieran chuckled lightly, looking over to Arthur. "No not horses. Merely some other things I leanred from Malik. My main area of study is actually drow, believe it or not." A little shrug, shifting his position for a moment. "But that and among other things, some random notes. I hope you don't mind a mention or two of yourself."
