“We need a pool,” Edward announced as he sat down at the kitchen table. Kenshin lowered the newspaper and stared at Edward, who had a bowl of cereal.

“I thought you didn’t like milk,” he said, as Edward dug in to the cereal.

“I don’t, it’s water,” Edward said, crunching through the syllables. Kenshin made a face and Edward grinned at him, hunched over the table.

Kenshin shook his head and closed the newspaper, putting it on the table. “There’s a swimming hole in the woods … somewhere, Kennichi loves it."

"Gunk in the automail,” Edward said. “Remember last autumn, cleaning all the leaves and crap that got under the forearm plate?” He held up his prosthetic illustratively. “Plus, can’t touch the ground, remember? I don’t float."

"So you want a pool to splash around in like a baby duck,” Kenshin said. “Maybe we can accommodate that."

Edward jabbed his spoon at Kenshin. "Not a kiddie pool like we wash the dog in, you dick. Like an actual swimming pool that more than one person can get into."

"I don’t know if it’s a good idea, with this crowd,” Kenshin said. “Besides, that’s going to end with someone having sex in the pool, and do you really want to go swimming in someone elses’ spunk?"

"Who the fuck would try to have sex in a pool?"

Kenshin raised his eyebrow, and Edward sat up straight. "Oh, that was NOT a swimming pool and you know it."

"Point still stands,” Kenshin said, and picked up his tea.

“That was once! And it wasn’t in a fucking public place -” Edward sighed. “Fuck, I hate it when you’re right. There are too many of me around here, someone would try it."

"Mmhm,” Kenshin smiled. “But, it’s not really a bad idea, though.”
