 : She wasn't avoiding him - he was avoiding her. Same difference. He was busy trying to come up with ways to get her to treat him with respect. He didn't think that he deserved her treatment. Besides, he was young (relatively speaking) and nice looking - in his opinion.... |

Bloom spotted Mar not all that far away, she slid further out of the water hoping he wouldn't see her. She still was not to the point that she would talk to him, she would rather be lonely then have to put up with him.

: Mar just looked at her. "Are you trying to kill yourself?" he asked, noticing that her gills were getting very dry. "Get your tail back in the water before you dry out completely. |

"Wouldn't me drying out be to your advantage? Then you wouldn't have to deal with me." Bloom responded, not moving from where she was.

: "As much as it pains me to say this, I rather have you living than dead. Besides, you know how many people actually acknowledge I exist outside of Faragonda? Did you say just one. Why yes, only you've acknowledge I'm here. At least, for the time being." |

Since she wasn't planning on dying she slid back into the water. "You did make it rather hard for me not to acknowledge you." Bloom pointed out, actually being nice for the moment. "If you really wanted the attention I am sure you could have gotten it. How did you and Faragonda meet anyways?" Bloom asked, she was more desperate for conversation that she thought.

: "Ah, that dates back to when she first started teaching at Alfea," he said, brushing his bangs off his forehead. "A freshman fairy thought it'd be cute to raise a little sea creature in their bath tub." He grimmaced. "Of course, that meant she had to get a little sea creature and.." he slipped into a falsetto. "Isn't that the cutest little merbaby you've seen, Amarantha?" He shuddered and switched back to his normal voice. "Unfortunately for her, I started to get a little too big for the bathtub and then her roommate, Princess Rosamund, the Resplendent Flower of Masfell... Yes, she insisted on everyone calling her that... Well, the "resplendent flower of Masfell" reported her roommate to Faragonda. And then I was evicted from the bathtub and dropped in. Been here ever since." |

"So why dump you here instead of finding your family?" Bloom had to ask, at least her family sent her somewhere there were other people. "I know she has the power to do it."

: Mar was silent for a long period of time. "When Amarantha bought me... the people who got me for the," he paused for a moment and then did air quotes when he spoke, "pet shop... They killed my entire family and sold parts of them for various things. Supposedly, some people believed that eating mermaid flesh would give them immortality.." |

OOC: furthering Bloom's trouble XD
Amore was doing a quick flying job over the lake, she had to get back to Stella. And damn, that box of chocolates Brandon wanted Stella to have was heavy. She had to remind him that she was the pixie of love - not the pixie of delieveries.
Almost without realizing it, Amore dropped one of her soulmate flowers out of her hair and it landed on Bloom's lap.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to bring up something painful." Bloom said she remember what it was like when she found out the coven killed her family just because of who they were. Sure he was irritating and bossy but no one deserved to go through that. Picking up the flower, Bloom looked up to see where it came from. "I know your old but how old are you compared to the rest of your race?" Bloom guilelessly asked when she looked back towards Mar when she couldn't find who dropped the flower.

: Mar gave her a weak smile. "It's okay. It doesn't hurt as much now," however the expression on his face indicated otherwise. It was still a painful subject. "Well, as for my age.. Ah, I reckon, I'm about sixteen if we measure using your human years." |

"Oh," Bloom said, 'No wonder people think they are immortal if he's only sixteen by their standards but has been here for decades.' she thought while she studied him. Deciding they needed a topic change she asked "So what do you do for fun?" before she could stop herself, 'why was she asking him questions. She wanted nothing to do with him.'

: "You mean besides swim?" Mar asked. "Eh, I've been known to do a little sunbathing. Although, I try to be careful when I do it - the last thing I need is someone going," once again he slipped into the falsetto, "Oh mah gawd, there's a merman in the lake," doing a perfect imitation of one of the several "valley girls" that flocked near the lake to get sun. He cleared his throat. "And, I've been known to scavange. I'm working on growing an underwater garden but well, underwater flowers are hard to come by." He gave her a wry grin. "I've also picked up a few human artifacts. Ah, I'm trying to get this whirlamajigger to work." OOC: music box XD I couldn't resist |

Bloom raised an eyebrow and stared at Mar when he did his Valley Girl imitation. "Ha, it's hard for people to acknowledge that your here when you hide from them." Bloom turning his earlier statement against him. "Whirlamajigger? Don't you mean a music box?" Bloom asked looking at the box.
