the water is rising ; ( closed )

Date & Time: after the zombies, before christmas?
Location: a/the swimming pool
Characters: gamora & collette
Summary: awesome ladies swimming and meeting each other for the first time
Warnings: none


[ She hadn't swam, actually swam in years. There hadn't been time recently, and beyond that there hadn't been an opportunity. Finding out that the Hold had a swimming pool had been a perfect opportunity to apply some of her restless energy that she couldn't spend in the training rooms or hadn't taken out on any unfortunate animated corpse. Five mile swims - back and forth and back and forth. It wasn't the same as swimming in the ocean, but it was good enough.

This morning found her in the water once again, steady strokes as the muscles remembered the proper forms required. Focused on the task at hand, and resolutely not thinking about the consequences of the disappearance of one metaphysical sorcerer from Exsilium. The problem was the fact that she couldn't tell if it was his own doing or simply something the Initiative did. Gamora considered the likelihood of him returning without letting her and Quill know how to do it themselves or bring them with to be a very slim one but he'd always been needlessly messianic. If he felt that returning to meet his fate was the better option, he would have done it. Still, Adam's absence meant they were down their best way to get out of this place in a timely manner.

D'ast him. With a grimace, Gamora pushed off from the edge again, falling into a backstroke that left her scowling at the ceiling. ]

I figure it's more you learn how to live on anyway, not spending all your time missing them. But sure! You get used to it.
whatsupcroc: (☇ ask: like you know that really)

Now that's news to me...

( Collette lifts a hand to wave at Gamora. )

Hope to see you around again, swim partner!
whatsupcroc: (☇ smile: yeah it'll all be fine)
