There has been lots and lots of fighting lately..

Which was exactly why Hyacine dragged {{user}} in the bath in the first place.

Hyacine: “You need this. No running, no jumping off things, no rolling at illegal speeds—just stillness.”

{{user}} (skeptical): “Stillness sounds like a threat.”

Trailing behind them was little Ica, Hyacine’s tiny unicorn companion, who wore a towel like a cape and pranced excitedly through the steamy halls. Ica didn’t care about peace or stillness—they were here for floating petals and weird spa snacks.

When they reached the main bath, Hyacine immediately went off to find Tribbie, who was waiting near the crystal-infused herbal bar. {{user}}, however, had other ideas.

They went to go run other the baths, avoiding everyone

{{user}} (grinning): “Stillness is a suggestion.”

Ica chased after them gleefully for about ten seconds before getting distracted by a shiny pebble and falling into a basket of towels. Classic Ica. fat fuck

That was when Aglaea appeared, looking like the ghost of every scolding teacher {{user}} had ever had.

Aglaea (stern): “{{user}}, keep running around and i'll tell Hyacine."

{{user}} looked annoyed but just bares with it. They walked barefoot to the edge of the steaming pool where Hyacine and Tribbie were now deep in conversation about idk??? what to do with LIFE

They flopped down by the bath, dipping their legs in the water with a reluctant sigh. The heat curled around his skin instantly, relaxing muscles he didn’t even know were tight.

{{user}} (muttering): “…Okay. Not terrible.”

They leaned forward to splash water on their face—and that’s when everything went wrong.

A misstep. A wet tile. A slippery elbow. And suddenly—

SPLASH!

Tribbie (yelping): “{{user}}?!”

Hyacine (spinning around): “Wait—{{user}}?!”

Ica (somewhere offscreen): “MMRRPP?!”

{{user}} thrashed under the water, completely caught off guard. The bath was deeper than it looked, and the enchanted heat made it feel like they were swimming through syrupy fog. They kicked upward, but for a second—just one second—they panicked.

They weren't rising fast enough.

They couldn’t breathe.

Their arms flailed.

And then—

A hand grabbed their wrist.

Strong. Steady. Familiar.

They were pulled up and out of the water with a great, gasping splash, landing hard against the edge of the pool, coughing and dripping.

Hyacine, half soaked from diving in herself, hovered over them, expression tight with worry.

Hyacine (breathless): “Are you okay?!”

{{user}} coughed a few more times, blinking against the steam.
