If what the counselors said is true then I don't want you falling in due to my behalf."[/color] *He would say politely, trying to be a gentleman. He knew that getting the other person in would be tricky and sometimes with new people it would end up with them in the water or the canoe tipping over. Him kneeling and holding the canoe in place, looking back over to her for her response. If she really was eager for him to get in first he wouldn't complain or continue. His wound opening up as the black cloud follows from his hand and seeps into the water, disappearing under the waves as James chuckles and shakes his head* [color=yellow]"No funny ideas Neric."[/color]
