[she laughs, too.]

When in reality, you were simply trying to see if I'd drown.

What? Never.

[ Shaking his head. ]

I only want to see you enjoy yourself.

Moments after I told you I can't swim...

I doubt this is deep enough for you to drown, my friend. I have faith!

Mmm...

[fine. she'll duck her head under the water.]

[ Watching carefully to make sure she doesn't drown for real. ]

[wow! she doesn't! it's just shallow!]

I have taken a bath before, you know.

... Yeah. And it's pretty weird to just be watching while you do it, isn't it?

Well, I wasn't going to say so...

[but she laughs a little.]

It isn't bad to have company.

Then I'll keep being creepy.

[ He winks. ]

So, what was it that you were doing before arriving here?

[raising her eyebrows just a little.]

Dying, mostly. You?

[ A beat. ]

Well, before that part.
