Down by the Bay [Nixie/Malachi]

[Nixie Ran]

“Glorified babysitter huh?” She drawled out to hide her mild disappointment at his lack of reaction. Tough shell to crack she thought to herself casting her eyes back to the shoreline for a moment and then back to him. “What got you a babysitter?” she wondered aloud rather than keeping it to herself. She hoped he didn’t catch it but at the same time she doubted he wouldn’t, if he had heightened smell his hearing was pretty much a guarantee. Nixie’s body went from being loose and relaxed to alert, indicating her guard was up at the mention of the babysitter. A recent application and acceptance into Plasma flashing through her mind. “I would have anticipated them having someone more involved…” she mused idly. It wasn’t meant to be acknowledged or answered though and she stopped straining to try and locate someone who might be in observation and looked back to Malachi as he fussed with a fish beneath the surface. She nodded understanding “Well, sorry to be a disappointment on the amusement factor…you can try knocking me off again when I catch a wave if you like…though I doubt it will have the same gratification to an unwitting victim. I’ve got nothin’ goin’ on” she offered casually cupping some of the saltwater and washing it over her left arm to cool the tightening skin, granted saltwater wasn’t going to soothe anything long term but she wasn’t entirely eager to get into the water. Too many “what if’s” and she didn’t want to run the risks.

Malachi shrugged in the water, taking a moment to look at the tattoos on her before shaking his head. Not today. "I've got a stupid tracker on me, trust me, I'm not going anywhere." Granted.. he could easily flee from Anrui. Issue is that he doesn't want to... and that's not an issue. He just shrugs and continues drifting, Azubah jumping out of the water and over him in an attempt to continue annoying her master. "No fun if the fuckers know its coming." he mentioned, eyes squinted against the glinting light on the water. But despite what he said, he did kick at her board at least one more time just cause he could, and let his self sink below water to snatch the Carvanha that kept bugging him. Wrestling with her for a second before letting her go and coming back up, now without a Carvanha trying to literally bite his ass. Her tattoos continued to confuse him off and on, his idle brain turning back to the 'octopus' his brain kept telling him was around. Rubbing his cheeks, he looked back at her. "You look like you had something going on." he clipped back. Maybe she was just drifting on a board... but he didn't see how that'd make any sense. At least to him.

Nixie shrugged non-committally as she kept herself balanced from his unexpected kick to her board “I mean, yeah I am out here surfing but I’ve got nothing pressing going on.” She wondered how often her socialized with others given his general disconnected demeanor and aggressive tendencies. Given the factors she calculated, it was highly more probable that this was the rarity for him. It only served to agitate the behavioral analyst in her, not at him independently but those obviously responsible to the enigma of his person. Sharks were normally isolated creatures, generally only coming together in groups during feeding frenzies. It was the human traits that remained that she assessed would be in direct conflicting with the genetically introduced behavior making for a volatile combination. She scowled slightly at the thought but not enough to be discernible as she looked up at the sun, squinting. The brine of the salt water stung at her eyes as a strong wind swept in, seemed there was a late afternoon summer storm preparing to roll towards the coastline. “Well, that’s going to be a doozy,” she mused a loud indicating the building clouds on the horizon.

To be honest, the urge to dive deeper into the water was more than obnoxious as he slowly slid beneath the surface, wetting his face under the salty water. After a moment, he came back up, turning towards the horizon. "Feels like it'll be a doozy." Malachi muttered in turn, rubbing his jaws before turning back to shore, seeing the person in attendance with him waving him back. "Well. I gotta bail, so.... you probably should too." Malachi muttered, grabbing onto his Carvanha to put her back into her ball and diving under the water to swim back to the shore.
