video - don't introduce lalli to twitter.

[COMING AT YOU LIVE from...from...a bath??? There's definitely bubbles hanging around this wet scarecrow of a human, along with swishing and slapping of water and some blonde fumbling about with a towel in the back (presumably for the now-clean Lalli) whose expression becomes distracted just moments after the mental broadcast begins.]

Emil can't make a circle around my thigh with his hands. No one can. That's stupid.

[Emil mostly seems to be melting into mortification rather than sticking to some kind of agenda, but whatever. Not like he's naked.]

If anyone in this stupid coven thinks I'm wrong, prove it. Come to the bathhouse in the next hour, and if you can make your fingers touch, you win. If not, Emil shuts up.

( "Don't make a big deal"...how about no. There's no real reason why (to him, outside of being complimented at all), but it makes him smile stupidly. "I [couldn't] let anyone else do this!!" That means only him!! Emil!!

Speaking of a soapy abyss, Emil's going to dump more water on Lalli, though slowly this time because he's not in such a leggy and aggravated mood. )

There's nothing wrong with you. ( There's a chipper tone to this -- oops, he's still looking all goofy. Ahem, ahem. ) I mean, it feels good to have other people do things for you sometimes, though I'm not sure I'd put bathing on my own list. Cleaning, cooking -- it's like taking a break and making someone else do the work. Nothing wrong with that!

[On one hand, god ur so fuckin embarrassing, stop. On the other, ah, he's happy... Good. That's very good.]

...Yeah.

[It was an unusual luxury that was still hard to indulge in... But everything seems sorted out now, at least, and he feels like his thoughts on the matter were actually listened to. It's really nice to hear someone saying "There's nothing wrong with you" in such earnest joy.

...where the heck is Lisko.]

( At the OOC mention of their name, they stick their head up and look around the pool they'd flip-flopped into. Oh...dads are actually pretty far away now. This, of course, means they're free to do their own thing.

Water is actually really fun, but something even more fun? What's UNDER the water. There are holes and drains to look at, try to squeeze themselves in...and what's this? A coin! All the way at the bottom!

Swimming happily to go retrieve the shiny item, Lisko's doing just fine until they realize that they have to swim back up. They're a pretty good swimmer, but they accidentally swallow some water on the way back up. It doesn't feel too good and the cough a little once they hit the surface...but it was totally worth it!

It may not be worth the horrific case of hiccups they have now, though. Suddenly they make a horrible squeaking noise that's between a yowl and a burp, all while electrifying the pool they're in with an involuntary zap.

Dads??? Help them??? They can feel another horrible hiccup coming on... )

[lalliho]

[At least they went into a different one... Lalli still sits up straighter like he was jolted, on high alert, thanks to the absurdity of the noise. Is Lisko in trouble??? Ugh, why are they such bad dads...!]

What's wrong with them? Ah -- there aren't pinchy crabs again, are there? Lisko, hit back.

( He would be quicker on his feet if he immediately saw Lisko thrashing and confused. When he finally sees Lisko, splashing around and making some horrible noise he's more invigorated.

Emil thinks before he acts if he thinks he has the time, but this could potentially require split-second action. Lalli's hair be damned, he's up and rushing to Lisko, afraid they might be drowning instead of simply harassing an aggravated crab. They can wap and zap a crab, but not water -- at least not effectively.

Which is actually a good thing. The electricity has traveled out of the pool by the time he essentially slips into it, not exactly graceful on the slick bath house tiled floor. That...might actually be a little more dangerous for Lisko, but he grabs a hold of them as quickly as he can as he flounders himself. Daddy's got you, small thing!! They snort out water, still not done with their hiccups but thankfully not shocking anything right now.

The whole picture is somewhat comical, but also not because the fate of their baby was at stake! )

I think they're okay? ( Dripping wet, he walks the still dazzed, coin-clutching lizard creature over to Lalli's tub again. ) But they're making weird noises!
