"Uuuuuhhhh. Sure." Nykidia said snapping out of it. Lyra wouldn't do that. Right?

(Sorry I've been gone, this weekend has been PACKED with studying, volunteering, and scraping for state points at a debate tournament. I really haven't been on enough, and I probably won't be here as often as I'd like until finals are over next week. For that, I apologize.)
Lyra smiled, grasping Nykidia's hand and pulling her slowly into the surf. Once the water was up to their knees, she stopped, letting Nykidia know that Lyra wasn't going to force her deeper into the waves. "Can you come a little deeper with me? Nothing bad's going to happen, I promise." She held a hand over her heart in solidarity.
"S-sure." Nykidia said as Lyra let go of her hand. It's fine. It's OK. ItsOKItsOKItsOKItsOKItsOKItsOKItsOKItsOKItsOK.
Oh no. Nykidia seemed far too dangerous to be scared, but she seemed tense. Practically shaking as she went deeper into the water. "It's okay, Babe. I swear you'll be fine."
Babe? "Ok. Yeah! I'll be fine." Nykidia said as she relaxed slightly. She shouldn't be nervous. She'll look weak. She can't do that.
"Yup! Let's walk a little deeper, okay? Or do you think you can try to take a breath now? I swear to the gods that you'll be safe. I don't use magic often, but when I do I use it well." Lyra san even deeper into the ocean, water soaking her waist as waves rolled around her.
"Uuumm breathing?" Nykidia said getting slightly tense. She did not like this. She hated water. Especially when you have tried to be drowned over 6 times.
Lyra noted the renewed tenseness, but she didn't take back her original statement. "Yeah! Just one tiny breath through your nose. But you totally don't need to do it if you don't want to! We can just splash around in the water instead of going to my place if you're too nervous."
'Her place? She's a siren. OMG you idiot. She's a water creature.' she thought. Nykidia took in a breath and dove underwater. Despite all her instincts she breath in.
Lyra cheered, diving under to sit beside her girlfriend. Her hair had come free from their space buns, floating like two aqua blue clouds, anchored only by her highlighter yellow scrunchies. She grinned, revealing her sharp teeth as Nykidia took in the fact that she wasn't going to drown.
She inhaled water but didn't choke like she expected. Lyra was right. She could breath. She looked over at Lyra. She giggled. How was that even possible underwater? She could hear everything.

(Bump?)
(Sorry I've been gone. Life really caught up with me and I started majorly stressing. So much that it was really fucking with me. The worst is over now though, so I should be able to post regularly)
Lyra smiled back, pulling Nykidia into a gleeful kiss. She seemed happy. Half manic, but happy. It was a good look on her. "Told you it'd be okay! I'd never let anything happen to you, promise."
(No no. That's fine. Take care of your self.)
Nykidia was a little surprised by kiss. She had never kissed anyone before. She laughed at how much fun Lyra having. "Thank you!"
(Thanks. I got most of the stuff worked out, so things should be good for now.)
Lyra grinned, grabbing Nykidia's arm to pull her deeper. They could go to the junkyard! This was going to be so awesome! "No problem, Babe! Ready to go deeper? I have a super rad place to show you."
She nodded. She just hoped they didn't go too deep.
Lyra grinned, pulling Nykidia down into the depths of the ocean. It got pretty dark by the time Lyra saw the glimmering hunk of twisted metal and shipwreck remnants rising to meet her. A half destroyed metal ship sat proudly at the forefront of the pile, glimmering in the weak light. "We're here! Welcome to The Junkyard!"
Nykidia looked over the huge pile and her eyes lit up. She had always wanted to be on a ship but this was different. There were probably so many little scraps that she could find. For some reason she loved collecting little useless things.
Lyra delved down until her feet met the deck of the ship with a quiet 'thunk'. a crab scuttled out of sight as she gracefully made her way over to a valve and opened it, revealing a passage to the inside of the ship. "So, how do you like it so far?"
Nykidia squealed. She loved it. It was a little dark inside but it didn't matter. She pulled her self into the passage to look around and was engulfed in darkness.
Lyra laughed as Nykidia peeled off into the darkness, whispering one of the simplest, least threatening spells she could cast. "Luxa" A few balls of blue-green light pooled in her hands, pulling free to float around the room. It got rid of the gloomy atmosphere, revealing all the treasures Lyra had hidden away in this house. Half-rotted books of ancient lore, elaborate pieces of jewelry, cases filled with rusty coins- she had it all.
Nykidia looked at the blue-green glowing orbs that lit up the inside of the ship. Little strange shapes of metal glistened in the orbs light. She happily picked up the most interesting ones
Lyra grinned as Nykidia cupped the spelfyre in her palm. She seemed so full of wonder. It was completely adorable. "Welcome to my other house, I guess. Feel free to look round, just steer clear of the lowest level. There's some… Well, just don't go down there."
Nykidia looked slightly confused but shrugged it off. If possible she would want to keep Lyra out of her basement as well.
