▲ This Lance fellow, Skyler thought, must've seen some things. The way he talked about situations that would have reasonably shaken someone like they were nothing much... He could have been posturing, but Skyler didn't think so. He was too calm and collected for that. "I've had a few close calls while diving, but nothing quite like that. Most of the scars I have are superficial and mostly down to carelessness. Still, you probably saved people's lives. That's something to celebrate," she said, raising her glass. If he didn't celebrate what he'd done, Skyler certainly would do it for him. "Cheers!"Skyler threw her head back and laughed out loud at his quip about helping people haul diving equipment. Her eyes were bright with amusement when she looked back at Lance. "And may you keep on being a good samaritan and helping poor defenseless divers from succumbing under the weight of their scuba tanks - thanks for that, by the way." She blinked suddenly, realizing something. "Oh shit, I never said thank you, did I? Well, in my defense I did give you some flip-flops. But really, thank you." The girl made sure to eat as much of the sauce as possible. It was too delicious to go to waste. "Hmmm, a trainer from a young age. Many of my friends at the time did the same, but most of them eventually came back. I never really left except, as you know, to go out to sea." She speared the last of her fish with a thoughtful frown. "I don't find it cliché at all, I think it's an intimidating endeavour, especially for a ten-year-old. Is there a place in Hoenn that's your favourite, or that brings back good memories?"
Soaking the last bit of sauce with her bread, Skyler thought about Lance's question. It was one her parents had asked her time and time again, albeit in a more concerned/pushy manner. "Ah, well. I don't have much free time. I suppose I go out to dinner with surfer guys," she chuckled, "I used to do martial arts, but I quit some time ago. Whenever a sea storm approaches I go to the cliffs to watch it. That's something."
It was a bit sad that she couldn't come up with anything else, wasn't it? But Skyler shook these thoughts from her head quickly, calling for the waiter with a smile. She turned back to Lance. "Do you want dessert?"
