My friends, one of the many things I've very much enjoyed while on the Fleet is the ability to experience enjoyable things I never would have had had the opportunity to hear about back on Thedas. A 'water park' seems to be one of those. I am interested in seeing what the fuss is about... Especially if I can convince Kolivan to experience it with me. [Oh, he will. That is going to happen.] Meeting him as been other one of those things, after all, and combining them could be fun.

My concern is this. [He lifts his left hand, showing off the silver cybernetic prosthetic.] When it was installed I was reassured it's waterproof and I've had no issues with it in the shower and such, but somehow this seems different.

Does anyone have experience with these sorts of limbs? Can you check that it will still function properly even if I take it down a 'water slide'? [He seems to enjoy saying 'water slide' even though he can't fully conceptualize what it is.]

[Waterpark (for Kolivan)]

[Just as he had suggested on the network, he is able to convince Kolivan to come with him to check out the water park. Now they are both in bathing suits and t-shirts (very out of place for both of them, honestly) and side by side as Cyril considers the slides.

He has been reassured that his arm is waterproof, but now that he's here, he realizes that he hadn't considered his khol.]

Oh... I just realized this is going to make my eyes run.

[He was excited about the new experience and hadn't fully thought ahead. Don't judge him.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[His eyes widen as he stands up to his full height again, watching Cyril go.

Lifting his hand to his face, he blinks twice before slowly walking to the river where the slides let out so that way he can be there to meet Cyril at the end.]

[Kolivan probably hears Cyril as he goes down the slide. He still enjoys it fully. The whole thing is a kind of thrill that he doesn't think he'll ever be able to experience again, so he wants to take all of the joy from it that he can.

When he splashes down into the bottom pool he is still grinning, even as he swims over to where Kolivan is.]

[He hears him and is even able to track that joyful voice all the way down until he splashes into the bottom. Meeting him part way, he actually smiles a bit before pushing a floaty away from them so it's not just needlessly bumping against them.

He's just pleased Cyril had fun, alright.]

[Seeing Kolivan smile feels like a final reward for the ride. He grins up at Kolivan after he emerges from the water. He's wet and dripping and he couldn't be happier.]

That was a lot of fun.

[As he'd expected, Cyril had been able to have fun on the slide all the same. He pushes some of that wet hair out of his face so he can have a better time seeing it.]

Good. Tell me if there are more than you wish to ride. Otherwise we can swim together.
