"Thank you." He said, wading into the water before diving in head first and resurfacing a few away.
He slicked his hair back, revealing it to be decently long, the front ends of the hair going towards the back of his head.
"I know you just stepped out and all, but would you care to join me? I'm Nathaniel. No last name, just Nathaniel will do. Or Nate."

She sighed, "Why not?" She stripped back down to her undies and jumped back into the water. When she surfaced, she said this, "Well, they call you Nate. They call me Lohi. That's 'lockpick' in your tounge." She was good swimmer, herself.
-
"Lockpick. Cool name, mysterious. Probably a code name though." Nate commented with a chuckle, spreading his arms out and attempting to float in the water.
-
"Well, I'm paid to do mean things so Lockpick sounds pretty anonymous."
-
"We're all paid to do mean things at one point, Lohi. Even the most honourable of us..." He sighed, as if he had prior experience with tbe subject.
-
She swam in a circle around him, "So I guess something slipped..." She teased. She laughed. "I guess we can all say that. Not much of gambler, now are ya?"
-
"Not a gambler... I prefer the term risk taker." He said, looking at her as she swam around him.
-
"I'm just teasing," she said, playfully. "You seem brave enough for a risk-taker, koa moana," she teased. [spoiler]Translation: Ocean Warrior[/spoiler]
-
"Yet, you were the one born from the [i]sho'cye[/i]." Nate commented, giving her another smile. [spoiler]Translation: Ocean [/spoiler]
-
She smiled back. "Guess that's ironic. But just saying, you're too maikaʻi to be human." [spoiler]Tranlation: Cute[/spoiler]
-
"You honour me, miss." Nate said with a warm laugh.
-
She grinned, attempting to float on her back. "Are you sure you're not a riptide?" She asked, flirtingly.
-
"Are you sure you're not a goddess? I've heard many a tale of Hawaiin legends." Nate asked, chuckling again
-
"I was only asking because you sweep me off my feet," she added. "Hey, if I was a goddess, I wouldn't need to be the lockpick," she replied, chuckling.
-
"Or maybe that's what you're the goddess of. Lockpicking." Nate quickly suggested, moving a bit closer

-
He laughed warmly again, splashing her face playfully. "Yeah because that's fair!"
-
She splash back, playfully.
-
Nate laughed out loud, quickly swimming towards her and attempting to push her underneath the water.
-
She stayed above the water, until he pushed her down. She resurfaced right behind him. She splashes him.
-
He pivoted around in the water, sending a small wave at her and laughing again.
-
She grinned.
-
"Thanks for the swim, Lohi." He said, swimming towards the shore.
-
"Leaving so soon?" She asked.
-
"Yeah, my crew and I are working on relief efforts for the people of Dojoville. Just suffered a pretty bad attack."
-
"Sounds bad." She swam ashore, but her clothes back on, and found a pen and a piece of paper. She wrote something down on it.
