George: "No no, I'm not- No I'm not-" George bit his lip before sighing quietly. "I'm just worried is all. For both of them..." With a clenched jaw, it was as if he forgot to move entirely for a moment before beginning to walk. "Sorry, I guess I am a bit confused, but what exactly do you not remember?" Ariv: Ariv unbuttoned his shirt and hesitantly took off his pants before walking to the water, awkwardly standing in waist deep water. His eyes followed Alastor as he swam and a faint smile crossed his face.

Lillith: she went completely silent no longer making an effort to communicate. She looked like she was about to pass out and she couldn't seem to catch her breath, it was as if her body forgot how to breathe even as she desperately tried to take breaths. Alastor: he swam up as he saw Ariv and smiled hugging him tightly. Getting him all wet even before the rest of him actually touched the water. "Isn't it nice ??"

George: "Um... Nick? I think I broke your sister?" George mumbled, shuffling over to him. "I mean, we are almost to the Mansion, aren't we? Do you think she'll be fine until them?" Ariv: Ariv shivered as he quickly got wet. "It's a bit too cold for my liking but I suppose it is nice...," Ariv sighed, the only thing keeping him smiling was seeing Alastor so happy. "Did you have to get me all wet though?"

Nick: he looked back at them, taking note of lillith. "She should be fine, she's much too stubborn to let herself pass out from something such as this." He smiled Lucas looking like he was falling asleep while on Nick's shoulders. Alastor: he tilted his head not quite understanding why Ariv didn't like the water. "But it's just the best!!" He pouted pulling him into some deeper water. "Isn't the point of swimming to get wet??"

George: "Oh... uh..." George looked to Lilith nervously. "Alright, if you say so..." George kept shuffling along, occasionally glancing to Lucas and Nick to see if everything was alright. Ariv: "Well yes I suppose but-" Ariv cut himself off, his lips pressing shut. He pulled himself closer to Alastor and looked to the water, trying to see the bottom of it from where he was.

Nick: The mansion came into view surprisingly quickly he let out a sigh of relief. Lillith was able to catch her breath a little although not by much. Her lips were blue by the time they were at the mansion. Lucas was let down by Nick, he smiled to George tiredly stumbling over to him.
Alastor: he rose an eyebrow keeping his arms right around Ariv. The ground could barely be seen below them. Although faint outlines of rocks could be seen. "Is something wrong Ariv...?" He questioned curiously.

George: "Thank god," George whispered, relieved at how quickly the mansion came to view and so far? Everyone was basically alright! The kiddo was not dead, Nick and Lilith were still alive, and Lucas... George smiled to his fiancée, but concern and worry were in every inch of his expression. "How are you doing hun?" He still held onto Lilith but he opened his free arm for a hug. Ariv: "I.... I don't know." For Ariv to not answer would be one thing but to say he didn't know something? That idea was almost foreign to him. "I... I just-" Ariv cut himself off, swallowing hard before placing his face in Alastor's chest and speaking in a shaky voice. "Please keep talking..."

Lucas: he chuckled sadly a few tears rolling down his cheeks. "I'm just happy to be home... and with... you..." he hugged George keeping mind of lillith who was still as helpless as ever. Lucas spoke up again. "I love you... so much..." Alastor: he took a moemnt to process what was happeneing and simply sighed. "Hey it's okay, if you're afraid Ariv that's fine. It's just water though. I can see almost everything and nothing scary is underneath I promise. It's okay to be afraid of what you can't see."

George: George winced slightly as he was hugged. It was nothing Lucas did on purpose, but George's wound still hurt a bit from... well nevermind. You'll find out soon enough. "I love you too, hun," George mumbled back, holding him close despite the pain. "When we get home, how about we just get some rest? You look exhausted..." Ariv: Ariv didn't move and he didn't speak. Of course he didn't want to. He was reminded of something terrible that made him wish he hadn't remembered anything at all. "I think I will just stay right here..."

Lucas: "I wish I could..." he mumbled tiredly letting go of George after a moment. He turned and slowly began to walk to the mansion his shoulders dropping as he sighed. Lillith passed out her legs buckling underneath her own weight. Alastor: be nodded his head running a hand Through Ariv's hair to try and soothe him while he held onto him with his free hand keeping him up and above the water as he leaned on a rock that stuck out to the surface. "Everything is Alright love I promise."
