Lame. Let's go swimming!

What? [He stiffens] Are you nuts? I'm not going swimming!

[HUFF.] Why not?

Gee, I wonder? First of all, I'm blind. Second of all... I don't want to. And third of all, I've never gone swimming before in my life.

[She sighs.]

Bluh bluh bluh. I will protect you, Sollux!

[Oh gog, this is bad. He struggles for some excuse that isn't "I'm scared of drowning".] I don't...have a bathing suit.

So? Do you have shorts?

Fuck. Fine.

[He gets up and holds out his hands]

Let's get this over with.

[She gets up and takes his hands with a giggle.]

You are the best Sollux.

[Annnd out of the cabin they go!]

Sooo, what have you been up to lately?

Yeah, yeah, I know.

[He suffers himself to be led outside into the glorious fresh air, stepping carefully so as not to trip on the uneven paths, and inhaling as deeply as he can as he struggles to gain some kind of picture of what's around them. His lips part so he can even taste the air a little, as he's finding that helps a bit. Maybe his tongues are more sensitive than his nose.]

Lately as in since we got to camp?

In general! Has Dave been bothering you?

[Down to the beach they go! She's taking note of that taste thing, and smiling a little.]

[He tries to be kinda subtle about it, but his tongues flick a bit as he does it.]

...I think I've been bothering ck more than he's bothering me.

[Terezi laughs, turning her head towards him.]

I doubt that!

[He shrugs, smiling wryly]

Oh, I think so. He came to the cabin earlier today because he realized I'd encrypted his fetch modus while I was in his body.

[She raises her eyebrows.]

Why did you do that?

[He shrugs, smiling a little wider] Because it was fun, I don't know. I was just trolling. It wasn't like it was hard to fix.

[She smirks back.]

And who started that?

I'm honestly not sure, at this point. [He is trying not to seem like he's skirting any kind of topic, but they're edging closer and he tries to stay casual.] It's been pretty much constant since I first arrived. You saw that.

What did he do to make you encrypt it?

Uh. Nothing in particular. [Oh gog, tz, please leave it alone] Why, did he say something to you about me? [Fuck, that sounded paranoid.]

[Sollux this is a mystery and you know how she is about investigating shit. DON'T GIVE HER MORE REASON TO BE CURIOUS.]

Nooo. But when I mentioned him the other day you blushed. Why was that?

[Well, fuck.]

Uh...

[Oh gog, way to be obvious, Captor]

I'll tell you, but don't make a big deal out of nothing, okay?

[She tilts her head.]

Okay!

[This is so annoying. But at least they're not swimming. That's a plus.]

Okay, so, on the day that we all tasted funny, before you had me lick kk, I was hanging around with ck a little. And we were sort of playing...flushed cluckbeasts. Like licking each other and trying to freak each other out.

And then I kissed him. And it was stupid.

[She stops, hand still holding his. And stares in his direction. And blinks.

And then, she bursts out laughing.]
