Welcome to Gaia! ::

Rep showed up at the pool not much later, dressed in a pair of speedos and looking in no hurry at all. He did a double take when he spotted Jerry, and didn't drop the look of shocked surprise even as he wandered over to him.

He only just managed to restrain the urge to touch the other hunter to see if he was really missing all his ******** body hair.

"Did you wax?" he asked incredulously.

Rep wrinkled his nose in disapproval. "Aye mibbey more slippery in the pool but.." he made a vague gesture with his hands. "You were fine how you were, it's weird seeing you all ******** like metro." He scratched his own arm with a sound not unlike a dog itching itself and shrugged. "But I guess if you are trying to attract women you might as well listen to them. And not a ******** guy." he shrugged and turned his back, striding along the pool's edge before gracefully diving into the deep water, his earring blazing brightly the second he hit the surface. Swimming to the shallower end he set his feet on the bottom.

"Right, just jump in. Don't dive, just put your feet first. And then just like. be confident, kick your feet, swim to the surface. Hold your breath till you are at the top. And don't ******** freak out at any point, I'll get you if you look like you are in trouble."

He had a horrible feeling this was probably at some point end up in awkward Jerry contact.

Rep still wasn't even slightly pleased at the prospect of people changing Jerry, everyone on this ******** island had to impose on everyone else. Sure, he made fun of the other Sun, but that was mocking him playfully for how he was, how Rep pointed out things that made people what they are. Seeing him different, trimmed and changed into what women wanted him to be was strange and felt like cheating.

"I'd feel exposed too with nae hair." he said grimly. "But aye man, just jump in. You need to like, be confident with the water before you can learn to swim, none of this shuffling into the shallow end shite. Suns jump into the deep end. Ye can hold onto the side once you get to the surface. Which you will."

Rep looked on keenly, ready to swim over and rescue the other man if he sunk like a stone, as he was suspecting he would. Jerry seemed to lack that innate survival instincts most other humans were born with.

It was probably what made him a good sun.

Rep was pretty sure you had to go under a few times before you drowned, so he didn't intervene right away, just stood looking unimpressed as Jerry flailed around - but didn't sink. He couldn't ask for grace and control from the other man, he was here to teach him to swim, not to function.

"Good! You are doing good man. Now just stay that way ******** up and like..get to the edge!" he kept his voice loud and clear as he could manage though he didn't expect Jerry to be in much position to listen.

"No ******** FLOATS." Rep barked.

"BE THE ******** ALPHA WOLF AND ******** DOG PADDLE."

"Now you practice like. You get a handle on the different aspects of swimming. Like hold on and kick your feet. Get used to the lift it provides. Its what you combine with arm motions. As a hunter you should be able to kick ******** hard." he raised a brow at Jerry thoughtfully as well.

"Have you tried like, letting Roar lead? Like, the way you can in battle? Maybe he could like, show you how to dog paddle. Like, I don't know how Roar like, interacts with you but.. "
