He blinked. Building....their house's name?
"I see....well, I like you. If you need help, I'd be there for you. We have extra rooms at our place too, if you are looking for somewhere to stay."
He knew his mom wouldn't mind- she'd probably be ecstatic he made friends. He looked at her tail, watching it lash about a bit before blushing furiously at thoughts he couldn't keep out. He looked away and kept eating, shoveling more food in order to take attention away from his embarrassment.

A place to stay? Annnnd...he was blushing.
Something did not compute, here.
She took a nibble of the salad. '...tastes like spacelettuce.'
"Mmm... Would your mother be embarrassed to meet me as I am? Without clothes."

He tilted his head to the side.
"Mm, no. She'd be surprised I brought you. I haven't got a long list of friends, unfortunately. Comes with being Saiyan. Different. The people here have evolved well but still have some basic prejudice."
He would finish his plate and take a drink of his juice, offering it to her afterward.
"So, this brother of yours. What's his name?"

Something else, then.
She nodded a bit at his words...but didn't respond to them. It made her think.
The offered juice box caused her to blink and stare at it. It was open, and a small bit of juice was at the tip, signifying it was the same one he had been drinking of.
"Thanks, but no."
It would be improper. Sharing food of a spread was one thing. Sharing the same utensil or same...cup or straw, was highly intimate.
"His name is Hail."

Unfortunately, he had no idea of the intimacy it signified. He just shrugged and set it back down. He would look behind him.
"Is he on Earth too?"
He probably should have found that out before he stripped. A brother might take it the wrong way. He knew he would, if he wasn't an only child. He would groan, coming to his feet and stretching, hos body feeling far looser and admittedly fuller.
"So....we're gonna swim, right?"
He grinned down at her.

"Well, he might be around. I'm not sure where he got off to."
She grinned a little at his check and continued nibbling at the food she had, noting when it was similar to the items they had to have imported to their frigid planet...only to look up in slight confusion, her food not quite gone.
Saiyans ate stupidly fast.
"Um. Sure. I'm going to finish, first. And maybe we should pack the food up."

He laughed.
"No no, I always swim before packing up. After I swim, I might want more."
He would lift himself into the air and rocket off before diving into the lake. He then came up, looking back over at her. He floated up onto his back, kicking outward and drifting through the water. His boxers stuck to him while his hair floated outward. It felt so great and refreshing. He would take a slow, steady breath. Despite his confidence, he was a little nervous. He could...say the wrong thing and mess up a friendship that was just budding. And not to mention she would end up being his first friend, ever. He sprayed a little water out of his mouth, before closing his eyes.
'Ah....'

Aisuko shrugged a little, using her tail to gesture towards the water. She would follow, but after she cleaned her plate.
It would give her stomach time to settle, if it disagreed with any of the food, this little swim intermission. So, she got up a couple minutes later and floated herself to the water and immediately dove in to swim placidly down, down, down...to the bottom. She had no need to breathe, per se, so the feat was easy.

He watched her plunge into the water, and so he would follow after her, diving down. he would touch the bottle near her and grin stupidly before clasping his mouth closed again, bubbles flitting up to the surface. He would point through the liquid around them, at a boat off in the distance. Not a shipwreck, just a speed boat turned upside down. There was an air pocket in there he would visit sometimes. He swam over to it and popped up inside. The moss and growing algae was multicolored and surprisingly reflective of the sunlight pouring through the water.
He ran a hand through his hair, gasping a little.
"I didn't see bubbles coming from you- can you breathe under water or something?"

The icejin glanced to the side as she saw she had company, the shift to her face giving rise to an eyebrow before she glanced to where he was pointing. Huh.
She shrugged and followed, sedately, finding this was quite relaxing. Her tail worked the water behind her, sometimes, but mostly just swayed with her movement. When she surfaced, she didn't gasp or sputter, probably a further clue. But she did lightly exhale and inhale.
"Well... It's more that I don't need to breathe? I can survive without an atmosphere...I suppose the more understandable equivalent is I can hold my breath a really long time..?"

He let out a light hum.
"I see."
He looked up at the boat, admiring the colors. He would pause, however, eyes snapping over toward the beach. He stared up in its direction, waiting. Watching. Then he turned to her and, in as serious a voice as he could, spoke quietly. He knew nobody could hear but....still.
"You should get going. There are men out there, and they don't feel right."
He knew she could probably fight but he didn't want to risk it.

As he seemed to perk, Aisuko stilled, too, tuning in. Then her eyes swerved back to her odd companion.
And she let out an indignant snort. Softly, but still.
"And why don't they feel right..? Just hostile?"
See what the Saiyan thought.

He scowled- not at her, but at the thought.
"I don't know how to explain it. It's like...similar to the hairs on you arm standing on end. Er-"
He only realized then she probably didn't have a single hair on her body, so he would chew his lip. How to explain to someone that something didn't feel right?
"They just...yes, feel Hostile, I guess."

It didn't make a lick of sense to her. His second explanation did, more so.
"I see. So perhaps we give them the fight they're wanting."
Made sense to her. She glanced over at Okara.

He nodded.
"I agree. Problem is, my armor is up there, along with my fathers scanner. I can't let them go."
Truth was, he could. But there was something there is father had given him. Something he hadn't told anyone about- a necklace. A small silver Dragon holding a post. He had to keep it with him- it was worth more to him than any of that combined. He would look to her.
"Stay down here, if you want....but I have to get them back."
He'd take a deep breath and dive, moving for the surface.
