Two big ones stood out, in fact. But that was going to be one of those things she'd have to address slowly and she knew it.
When Trevor speaks up, breaking the companionable silence, she could almost laugh.]
Can't you? Enchanted objects are really not that uncommon, and water does have a lot of potential as a magical reagent. I'm surprised they didn't want us to drain the entire pool, honestly.

[ Though it's sharp, it's said in jest, really. She knows he knows diddily squat when it comes to reading and doing magic. OF it?? Yes, he knows. But actually using it is... not his area of skill. Unless it's salt. Maybe. Jut throw that shit at demons. ]
But, I guess the need to keep it flowing or whatever is why they didn't ask us to. Can't make much use of it if it's all gone in one go.
no subject
[But, you know, just the truth.]
And also, yes, though if what they said is accurate, each person can only find the pool once.
no subject
[ And will continue to do so?? Hell if he knows. ]
Guess that's it for us.
no subject
[Whatever that may be.]
Hopefully next time something with a little less trekking through the wilderness.
no subject
[ He's not as bad as he first was when crawling out of the pool of desire?? But still, damp clothes and squishing shoes is not fun. ]
Sooner we get back, the better.
no subject
[It's...almost like she might could do something about that.]
no subject
[ Being out in the sun, while it doesn't burn him (yet), it still makes him tired. ]
no subject
[Trevor don't do it.]
no subject
You just got here and you already know spells?
no subject
[...What the fuck else is she going to do? Breathe on the monsters outside the city?]
no subject
That's a lot of free time then. [ trEVOR ] But, like I said. I'm fine. Thanks.
no subject
[SyPHA! NO]
no subject
[ HE'S PRETTY SURE IT ISN'T?? ]
no subject
[It's from having wet boots for too long. But he doesn't need to know that.]
But suit yourself, if you want to risk it.
no subject
[ Don't quote him on that. ]
no subject
[...Stop this.]
no subject
Fine.
[ To which he stops and begins to
remove his boots
while standing
and hopping.
Yeah he didn't think this through. He DOES get one off?? But then he proceeds to just fall back in the process of trying to get the other one off. Crashing into a bush. Safe landing or something. ]
no subject
So, she could probably have been a little less flippant.
But then he just goes for it and flops back into...the fucking bushes. Because he's so, so graceful.
Frozen mid-sentence, Sypha gawks at Trevor, hanging ass-first out of a push.]
Oh!
[And then she's rushing to disentangle him, grabbing him by the arms and hauling backwards. And probably dangerously overbalancing herself.]
no subject
Son of a...
no subject
[It's more or less said in unison. Go them.
Because she flops back, overburdened by his weight, landing right on her ass with him on top.]
no subject
Are you ok?
no subject
Listen, you're very close, okay.]
Just fine.
no subject
Sorry. Didn't mean to, you know... take you down with me.
no subject
It's fine.
[Really.]
You're okay?
