Flora grins, water rippling faintly around her as she nods. s[ay]"He does, yeah—mostly Torchline, sometimes Stormbreak now that the Family is gone. I’ll happily introduce you if you ever escape all that snow for something warmer." At his quick add-on, her brows lift just a little, and she glances at him over one shoulder, weighing the comment like she’s trying to figure out whether it’s flattery, habit, or some mix of both.

Watching him ease in is...well. It’s a bit like watching a baby giraffe try to bend for a drink—long, careful, and faintly ridiculous. She does her best not to laugh, but her eyes betray her, bright with amusement. "We do," she assures him, tone light. "Just give it a second and try not to be so tense."
She shifts slightly, careful not to send waves splashing, and tips her chin toward him. "Alright—without moving too much, try letting yourself float a little. You can lean forward if it feels safer, or back if you’re feeling brave. Like this." She leans into a gentle backward drift, legs lifting softly from the stone beneath. "Just don’t do it too fast," she warns with a crooked grin. "Unless you’re going for the dramatic flail, in which case I’ll make sure to applaud and rescue you if you need it."

I want to be when you fall on me like night
I wanna kill the lights
I wanna kill the lights
