Remy LeBeau was never much of a fisherman. Despite growing up in New Orleans, a City famous for basically being underwater, he never was much for watersports. But today the sun is shineing, the water is calm, and he had a one gallon tub of cheetos that had gone stale. So he has slid a few on the end of a hook and tossed them into the water... Heck he's not even sure there are fish /in/ the lake.

X-23 has posed:
     Laura approaches and makes no attempt of being quiet as she does so. It was a nice day to be outside, the sun the shining the sky was blue... She nearly hated it all. Dress in all black and black combat boots she stops just behind Remy, "Are you seriously fishing right now?" she asks him. Stepping a bit further, she gets to the docks edge and peers down into the green looking water of the lake, "Do we stock fish in the lake?" she asks. But she really doesnt care, tucking her hands in her pockets and looking back up and towards Remy.

Gambit has posed:
Remy LeBeau grins a bit, offering a half shoulder shrug. "No idea mahself." He admits, slowly reeling in the line and skewering a few new cheetos onto the hook. "But Logan sugessted it one time as a form of relaxation, and Ah 'ate ta admit, it kinda works. Course if yah evah repeat dat Ah will denounce yah a liar an' might set yah pants on fire mahself." He grins slightly. "Got a second pole 'ere if yah like.

X-23 has posed:
     The mention of her "father" figure causes a bit of a frown on the short young woman's face. There was something hidden there, thoughts, feelings, whatever it was... she doesnt say it outloud. Instead she takes the pole indicated and picks it up. "I like louder things. The quiet seems like it gives too much room for the loudness of my own mind." But she'd try it. Repeating what he's seen Remy do and put a cheeseball on the hook and then toss out the line. "How long have you been at this?"

Gambit has posed:
Remy LeBeau shrugs slightly, "Bout twenty minutes Ah'd say. If not'ing else it's a good excuse ta sit in de sunshine an' 'ave somet'ing cool ta drink. Got some sweet tea if yah wan' some." He says with a smile, nodding his approval at her cast. "and 'ere is de part about it dat yah will like. when yah fishing, people tend ta jus' leave yah alone. Bet we could sit out 'ere an hour and nobody bug us. Dat gotta be wort' a bucket of stale Cheetos, non?

X-23 has posed:
"Sometimes." Laura smirks at Remy, "Sometimes I just need to noise of people and surroundings to drown out my own thoughts. I'm working on meditating and how to quiet those thoughts, to enjoy things like this." Logan had more practice than she did. There is a sigh and she looks towards the lake, the sun shining off the water. "I don't even know how to swim." she admits. "Never really spent a lot of time in water. I guess I could figure it out if I was put in that position." Even though the bucket is stale, she picks up some of the cheetos and chomps on them.

Gambit has posed:
Remy LeBeau chuckles a little bit, tilting his head slightly. "Having a bunch of metal grafted ta yah skeleton likely make swimming rat'er difficult too." He says casually, nodding and reaching into the tub to pop one of the cheese puffs into his own mouth. "Course when mah pappa found out dat Ah could not swim, he t'rew me in a lake not much unlike dis one and told me Ah bettah learn quick.

X-23 has posed:
"What a dick." Laura says, "Much like my own father. He's a dick." That might be one of the times that she says so outloud. There is a smirk on her face. There is a bite on her pole and she starts to freak out. "what do I do?" There is a fish on her line. Who knew this was going to happen. The reel starts to spin on her and she tries to stop it.

Gambit has posed:
Remy LeBeau laughs, putting down his own pole and grinning widely. "Okay stay calm. Wind it back slow. Just nice and easy. Ain't nothing in 'ere dat gonna put up any kinda fight." He says casually. He doesn't want to touch her for fear of spooking her when she is already suddonly high strung. "He not gonna break de line, so just reel 'im in.
