[OPEN] Soldier On--
Who: Serph and YOU
Where: The Park
When: November 14th, afternoon
Style: [brackets] preferred, but I can adjust
Status: WIDE OPEN
[It's been quite some time since Sera's departure, and since then, there have been others -- both Tribe and friends -- who have left Vatheon and not returned. Serph doesn't know if they'll return. Maybe they will. Maybe they won't. In the end, the decision isn't in his hands.
Before, there hadn't been time for these departures to affect him.
Which is why he's in the park, kicking a hacky sack. Signless had taught him the game when he'd noticed Serph watching him, so many months ago. In some ways, this is an imitation of that time; while Serph's content to play on his own, he's more than happy to play with people passing by.
Will you join in?]

I spend time in the forest.
[aka he... doesn't really do much.]
no subject
No other hobbies?
[Hobbies is totally a word he learnt!! And damn man, Serph likes just being in places and doing nothing but even he can't do that all the time.]
no subject
I didn't have this much free time back home, so I suppose I never really thought about it.
no subject
It's a good time to learn. There are useful books in the library and other foreigners can help.
[That's how he picked up gardening as a hobby, actually. Learning about it from other foreigners. He remembers that time Tiir found him after he was chased by the mosasaurus, which still happens every now and again...]
Learning to swim is also an option.
[What if Serph is drowning and Tiir can't save him??]
no subject
Tiir just laughs as he passes the sack back.]
Will you teach me, then?
no subject
Now?
[Why wouldn't he teach Tiir how not to drown--]
no subject
Whenever you feel like it. I'm in no hurry.
[... Just because he can't swim...]
no subject
How about now?
[Tiir let Serph drown you--]
no subject
It takes a bit more effort this time, having to cover more distance, but again, Tiir manages to return the sack.]
You don't mind?
[Uh, he might have a problem with that—]
no subject
I don't.
no subject
[Stepping back! Hurray for enhanced speed, at least, since again he manages to make in time and kick the ball back, even if a tad awkwardly.]
Well, if you don't mind, then I don't either.
no subject
Let's go.
[And if Tiir has no further objections, Serph'll lead them both alllllllll the way to the lake in the forest; he isn't about to make Tiir swim in the sea. Yet. Maybe.]
no subject
... yeah um the sea would probably not be a good idea right now.]
no subject
It would be best if you took off your clothes.
[Serph just wants to see your body, Tiir--]
no subject
Tiir blinks, but sees nothing wrong with this, so. Removing his coat!
... ???]
no subject
The rest, too.
no subject
[Removing his shirt...?]
no subject
Your clothing is loose. It will weigh you down--
[he's not certain how strong Tiir is, though]
--and make your movements awkward.
[His gaze goes pointedly to Tiir's
crotchpants.]no subject
Ah, I see.
[Welp. Removing his pants (and shoes and socks while he's at it), then. ARE YOU HAPPY NOW, SERPH.]
