James had manged to find someone who had a row boat, and that let him borrow it. He was limited on ideas for monsters lately, so he decided he may get out of his artists block with a sit on the lake.

It was quarter past four pm, and the late Friday afternoon sun glared down on to the crystal canvas of the lakes surface, only broken by the ripples of the row boat captained by James. He wasn't a big swimmer, and he hoped the boat wouldn't capsize with him in it. When he got about 3 yards out he took in the oars and sat back against the side of the boat, and looked back at the shore.

His eyes were wanting to close, but his will was strong enough to keep himself awake. His gaze scanned the shore, subconsciously hoping there was someone there he could speak to. He had been quite lonely recently, and hadn't seen to much of Maddie or Keely. He shifted his weight slightly and the boat swayed a little bit.

Lucius wanders close to the lake. His rifle was left in his room, but Ronginus always coiled around him with his head on Lucius' shoulder. Lucius pets Ronginus' head and sat down with his legs stretched forth and crossed. "I slept like a baby last night..." Ronginus comments. "FYI, you ARE a baby..." Lucius joked. "I'm not a baby!" Ronginus said and chuckles.

James had closed his eyes for a second, but when he opened them again, he saw a guy with something white around his shoulder. He strained his eyes to see what it was, but he could only see it moving. He leaned over the edge of the boat, trying to see what it was, when a wave hit the boat and rocked it. This caused him to fall in. Since he hadn't stayed anywhere that long, he had never learnt to swim. When he hit the water the first thing he thought to was not to grab at the boat, but to shout, "God this water is fucking cold." After a few brief moments of flailing about he shouted at the guy, "a little helphere," before bobing under the water.

"How troublesome..." he thought "Well, at least I'll get something to do...". Lucius threw his coat aside and rushed, jumping in the water and swimming over to James. Once there, Ronginus said "Hold onto me and Lucius will swim you out here...".

James bobbed back up to the surface to see the guy coming towards him. He couldn't hear him because of the water in his ears, so he just extended his arm out, before getting swept under by a wave the cam from nowhere. The boat was slowly looming towards the shore.

"Ronginus!" Lucius said. "I understand!" Ronginus said and went underwater, coiling his upper body around James' chest as Lucius held his tail. Then Lucius pulls them up and back to the surface. "Ronginus, hold his head out the water!" Lucius said and Ronginus obeyed. Still with his upper body coiled around James' chest and his lower body around Lucius' chest. Lucius began to swin back to the shore.

James held onto what he still thought may be a scarf that had wraped around his chest, hand he tried kicking to push himself along. Little did he know that the boat was getting closer faster than he was moving. Another wave was coming but it pushed him along to the shore, and the boat.

Once they were by the shore, Lucius had set James close to where he had been sitting when he saw James falling from the boat. He then dries themselves with the coat and sits down, sighing in exhaustion. "Was it too much effort for you?" Ronginus asked. "Not much... It's just that I forgot how I hate swimming..." Lucius said. "I see... I hope it wasn't my fault..." Ronginus said. "Your fault? Never... You're too light to weight a thing and you helped me, so..." Lucius said.

When James got back on shore he laid on his front on the ground panting. He lifted his head to look at the guy. "Thanks," he said before putting his head face down again. OUt on the lake the boat was coming back in, but it had gone off at an angle and hat hit a tree at the edge of the lake and had splintered. James sat up and looked at it. "Damn it. I had to return that."

"Well, either your life or the boat, I guess..." he said and got the boat, pulling a bit out the water so it wouldn't move away. He checks the damage and says "It isn't that bad...". Ronginus, meanwhile, looked at James. "Hi, I'm Ronginus, he's Lucius. Who are you?" Ronginus asked.

James was now standing and looking at the boat, with his hands on his head. When he heard th equestion he turned and said, "I'm James. NIce to meet you. Thanks for helping me out." He first noticed it was a dragon rather than a scarf. He stepped closer and stared at Ronginus. In his mind ideas for creatures were coming back to him now.

"Ah, it's alright... After all, it's our job to help humans..." Lucius said. "Yeah, James! We were supposed to help you, no matter what. So, it is our pleasure." Ronginus said. "Well said, Ronginus..." Lucius said. Lucius turns back to James, that seemed to be analyzing Ronginus.

James didn't hear the last comment as he was satring intentl at the dragon. He poked it under the chin. He then quickly waded into the water and grabbed a scrap of paper from the boat, which had come ashore on its own. James removed a penicl from his pocket and started drawing. He glanced at Ronginus every so often checking he had the details right.

Lucius watched him draw, out of pure curiousity. "I feel like he can see me naked..." Ronginus joked. "Ronginus... You ARE naked..." Lucius said "You're a dragon!". "Well, I know that... But... You know what I mean, right?" Ronginus said.

James was completely oblivious to what they were saying, but he was faintly aware that they were speaking in the first place. He finished the drawing and signed the bottom of it, move his arms forward and looked at it from a distance.
