[There is, as Neria said, a small stream a short distance away in the forest.] ~Hey, I'm getting better at this Telekinesis thing. Pretty soon I'll be able to do really nifty stuff with it.~ ^_^ * Shinrethryn looks back over her shoulder and then back at Isaac, blinking curiously. "Huh? Is that what you call it? Silly name.." ~Not really. Tele- is a prefix for mental activity, kinetics is the study of the energy of motion. Hence, Telekinesis would be 'motion by the mind'.~ ~Why? What would you call it?~ * Shinrethryn kneels down by the stream, putting her hand over the cool waters. She looks rather disinterested. "I wouldn't call it anything." * Isaac puts the canteen in the water, filling it up. ~But you have to call it something. It's a lot easier for people to talk about 'telekinesis' as *impression of moving objects with the mind*. Okay, you need to learn a few words, but without it most people won't even know what it is.~ ^^; * Shinrethryn raises her hand slowly, the water twisting in a double helix to meet her hands. She looks like she cares more about concentrating on the water than on Isaac. "I guess that's a thing about you. None of you can seem to accept that something exists until you can come up with a name for it." She sighs and sounds rather disappointed, the waters creeping up through the air. "It's sad really.." * Isaac smiles. ~It's a human thing. I could live without naming things, because I can transfer ideas to other people without words. But most would like to talk of something they find... And so, they name it!~ Yeah but there's some things that you just know. I don't know.... * Shinrethryn looks at her reflection in the stream, raising her fingers up, the water following her arc for a little before falling back into the stream with a splash. "I just don't get it really..." * Isaac finishes filling it up. ~Things that defy words?~ I don't think they defy them. It just seems like a silly practice to make something up every time there's something you don't understand. Can't you just accept it? ~Accept? Uh, I think so, but how is naming something not accepting it?~ It's just making things so needlessly complicated. * Shinrethryn smiles and puts her finger on the water. "Care to take a swim with me?" * Isaac thinks. ~I could, but I don't have any swim trunks with me. ^^;~ * Shinrethryn blinks. "What's that?" She looks at him curious for a moment, then steps out lightly onto the water's surface. ~They're something I can wear and not worry about getting wet. For most people, water stays in the clothing and weighs them down.~ So? ~We're also 'air breathers', like you said before.~ So? * Shinrethryn raises her arms over her head and spreads them out in almost a pose of worship, standing in the middle of the stream. * Isaac blinks, shrugs and takes off his jeans (he wears briefs, folks!) and shirt, folds them up, and jumps in with a big splash, probably getting Shinrethryn wet (not like she cares). ~So there!~ * Shinrethryn grins at Isaac as he gets wet and opens one eye. For one moment her form glistens, letting all of her body shimmer fluidly like water. Then she falls into the stream. * Isaac doesn't need to breathe to talk fortunately. ~So what do YOU do for fun?~ ^_^ * Shinrethryn doesn't seem to be there for a moment, but there's a light shimmering form beneath Isaac swimming through the water, almost like a faint bubble. It grins at Isaac. "I play in the water." She drags him down in the water. * Isaac takes a deep breath and is dragged down. ~Really? Never would have guessed!~ * Shinrethryn splashes out of it halfway, reforming as a solid human girl, laughing wildly. * Isaac swims up and breathes again. He assumes a backstroke position and lets his bouyancy keep him afloat. He's grinning. * Shinrethryn runs her fingers through her hair and then brings down her arms in a huge arc, creating a wave to splash Isaac (but just a normal one). "You're having fun too, you know!" * Isaac opens his mouth in surprise and gets put under. No sound, but Shinny is suddenly toppled when Isaac swims up and tips her over from the bottom. ~Maaaaybe I am.~ ^_^ * Shinrethryn topples a bit and starts to fall over, before sommersaulting in the air. She pouts as she turns around, hovering an inch above the water. "Hey! No fair!" * Isaac comes up for air. ~What? You did it to me.~ * Shinrethryn grins. "Yeah. But it's not fair when someone else does it." She falls into a puddle again and suddenly tugs underneath Isaac as she swims between his legs. * Isaac takes a deep breath again and is dragged. ~But that's no fun!~ * Shinrethryn grins and comes up behind him, jingling as she splashes out of the stream. "Is for me." * Isaac doesn't so much as motion when a small jet of water shoots Shinny in the back. ~But I want to have fun too!~ * Shinrethryn gets hit by it and pouts. "Hey...well if you're going to do that..." * Shinrethryn puts her hand in the water, kneeling down. She grins as she keeps one eye on Isaac. * Isaac dives under the water and grabs Shinny's hands, pulling her down. * Shinrethryn grins and slips out of his grip, melding with the water. ~Hey! Where'd you go?~ * Shinrethryn doesn't say anything. All there is is the normal sound of the stream. * Isaac goes over to shore and takes a seat, wringing out his hair. He looks over at his clothing. ~Hey, we should probably head back now. They might get worried if we spend too long out here.~ ^^; [There's a voice from the stream. "Awww. But you'll miss the good stuff!" ~Just a little longer then? It's fun to watch.~ ^_^ * Shinrethryn comes back out of the stream, frowning a little. "You got out of the water though..." She sighs and looks down at her feet, creating ripples on the surface. "I wish it were a lake." * Shinrethryn looks off to the side. "I suppose we can head back." * Isaac wipes off the excess water and starts putting his clothes back on. ~Okay then! Maybe I can teach you how to play cards or chess or something.~ ~Do you like to play games?~ Of course! ~Good!~ * Shinrethryn grins, then looks back towards the camp. "Think they're worried?" * Isaac finishes dressing, pickes up the canteen, puts the amulet on, and starts back. ~Probably.~ ^_^ * Shinrethryn pouts, then grins. "They're silly." She reappears in the air near Isaac and floats through the air, arms behind her head.
