hotsprings tiiiiiime

[Now Euri had very specific opinions on Folkvang. Namely, even though it sounded like a fun place to spend an evening, so avoided it like the plague. It was due to her albinism, of course; she was too self-conscious to visit a place that focused on beauty and the body. But she's been curious ever since she heard about it, and since that was when she first arrived that curiosity has had months to gnaw at her.

Eventually it got to be too much and she had to check the place out. But there was no way she was going alone, which is why she's dragging Vanitas along! He isn't exactly the same as a female friend, but she's more comfortable getting nervous around him.

Fortunately, she doesn't feel too nervous right now. They're in the hotsprings area, the coed section because it would be a pain to have to yell back and forth. And lucky for her, aside from them the place is completely empty. She still has a towel wrapped tightly around herself and every so often she eyes the water suspiciously (even if this is manmade there could be mermaids), but aside from that she's actually enjoying the warm water. She might even start relaxing at this rate.]

This is pretty nice, huh?

[There are no mermaids in the hot spring; the water'd boil them, Euri. :|;

But luckily for her, Vanitas is oblivious to those thoughts as he tries to relax, a few feet away. He's mulling over his own decision to come with her, even if he'd been the one to subtly imply that they could go together since he wasn't 'attracted' to her. Which, he hadn't thought she'd actually buy into but, never say never he guessed.

He's got his own, small towel wrapped around his waist, and can't help but feel a bit self-conscious, too, with that as his only covering. Which is why he's chosen to sit on a lower rock, so his body can be submerged up to his shoulders and neck. Plus, the water does feel good, and the soft sounds of the fresh water being cycled in through little fountain mouths is soothing.]

Better than I was imagining. ['Cause after all this time, he'd never actually been in the spring, just visited the steam room once or twice.]
