This is the 'Souls equivalent of a guy and a girl in a hot tub!! HE'S MAKING A MOVE!!!
Sitting in the water Terra glanced around. It's very pretty. She liked this place. Terra would be sure to come here again the next time she came to Aniwaya. Her leg tingled slightly, the water soothing the ache from the injury. Why hadn't she known about this before? Terra didn't know. She smiled at Claudius, and moved closer to nuzzle into his arm. She almost wanted to say thanks, but was unsure what she'd be thanking him for. Besides, she still had that question she had to figure out how to ask him.
Claudius was glad to see that Terra was taking her time. She moved down the rocks slowly and with more precision than he thought her capable given her wounded state. But she made it, limping slowly, so as not to aggravate her leg any further. She was slow, too, getting into the shallow water, but once she did, she seemed to relax very quickly. Claudius grinned and then plopped himself down with neither elegance nor grace. Some water splashed, possibly onto Terra, as he unceremoniously deposited himself into the water. He grinned wickedly at his friend and the shimmied back to get comfortable.
“Y-y-y-eah,” he replied. He yelped in a quiet, high-pitched sound when Terra moved closer and nuzzled his arm. He paused for a moment and then burst out laughing. He was so jumpy! He brought his arm up and moved to wrap it around Terra’s shoulders to give her a half-hug half-hold.
