Vicky grinned at Twist, nodding happily. "Yeah! Race ya!" she exclaimed, and with that she was off like a shot, dashing towards the pool at top speed, ready to leap into the cool, inviting waters.
Raiden tilted his head quizzically at Viridian, and staring at her in the way that had earned him so many scoldings from her. He couldn't help it, she puzzled him. And more than that, she puzzled him in such a way that it kindled a desire in him that he'd never had before- he had the burning desire to put together the pieces and work out the puzzle that she presented. Anyone else in the past that had puzzled Raiden before, he had been content to leave them an eternal mystery, with no real desire to figure them out. But something about Viridian interested him, and at some very deep level he needed to understand Viridian, and at a concious level wanted to. So when ever she did or said something that perplexed him- which, admittedly, was not particularly difficult to do- he stared, trying to find some sign or signal that would give him a glimpse into her psyche and reveal the meaning that was so hidden from him. "Amusing?" he asked finally. "What do you mean?"
"Ummm... I think I'm going to go ahead and... go talk to that guy over there." said Rina, still rather distractedly. Sala groaned slightly, but Rina didn't seem to hear as she scooted over to Territo with a silly grin on her face. Sala sighed, turning back to Daerimbor. "Sorry about that, Dae. She gets like that sometimes." Sala muttered. "Anyway, it's nice to meet you, too." she smiled warmly as Rina bounced up to Territo. "Hiya my name's Rina what's yours?" she asked, all in one breath, silly grin still on her face.
Ender went silent, looking down at the ground before mumbling. "I'm not too good at socializing." he admitted quietly, feeling the net of loneliness that lived with him at the pen tangling around him again.
