Ripples and Fractals [Iskra]

She rolled her eyes in the most dramatic way possible when he gave that stuffy, boring answer. Blah blah blah, childish, humbug. Yeah, whatever, grump butt. "I strongly disagree. I think having fun makes life worth living. Who cares if one accomplishes great things if it makes them miserable? A life that's not fun is not a life worth living." Perhaps she was a bit over the top in her apparent need to have fun, but really, could she be blamed? Iskra could think of nothing more horrifying than to lead a boring life.

The red woman grinned a toothy grin and offered only a sideways glance, head held high as she answered, "I do a lot of traveling..." her words were vague and she liked the air of mystery they gave her so she didn't bother to add any more yet. A thought hit her and she eyed him carefully as she went on to change the subject, "You wouldn't happen to have seen a little blue girl, would you? Hm... Never mind, I'll find her I'm sure."

Padding along the shore a few steps, Iskra hummed to herself. Stopping and turning abruptly she fixed him with what may have been her most mischievous yet. She started top sink into a crouch, but not enough for it to be easily apparent what she was doing as she said, "Well, Ashiel, I'm going to do you a favor. Let Iskra, the spirit of fun, show you how to loosen up a little." As soon as the last word left her lips she'd finished her crouch and sprang into the water near him, sending up a spray that would probably drench him, and both sides of the shore. She herself would stand up, dripping from nose to tail and still looking rather pleased with herself as she shook out her coat and bounded downstream a short ways, tail wagging.
