[Rin isn't the RU swim team captain; it's not his responsibility to scout incoming team members. he's also not a swim instructor, and it's not his responsibility to make sure everyone in the damn city knows how to crawl]

[but Rin loves to swim, and with his weighty future as a pro-swimmer always looming near, it's nice to -- blow off some steam like this, swimming for fun, swimming for stupid bets]

[(it was... interesting, to step into Bucky's world for a minute, there, and put his feelings to a song. maybe he'll do it again, sometime -- but not before a good swim)]

Oi.

[he'll call out to Bucky when he sees the other entering the lobby of the natatorium, on this The Fated Day, May 1st. the place is a bit of a maze, connecting to the gym; he figured it'd be best to lead the kid towards his demise. er, a good clean race]

Over here, Cannon.

[ It's a good thing Rin was there at the lobby to shepherd him to the pool, because otherwise he probably would've wandered around like an idiot for several minutes trying to find his way around.

As he follows Rin towards the pool, duffel bag with his swim materials slung over his shoulder, he can't help but note the new nickname. If that's what Rin wants to call him, well...he'd be more than pleased to let it happen. ]

How long you been waiting?

[gnasher]

To kick your ass in a race? Since we met.

[and here's an easy grin and oh god those are his teeth? those are his real and actual teeth]

C'mon, locker room's this way.

[he starts walking, leading them on]

[frostythehitman]

[ He falls a step behind upon seeing Rin's teeth, because what the hell. How does that even happen? How does he eat?

Okay not the point, gotta focus here. There's trash talk to pay attention to. James follows him towards the locker room. ]

Yeah? Well I hope you're ready to keep waiting, because you're not gonna beat me.
