[ razlo is truly such a twelve year old. haru stifles some amusement, though it does still glimmer through thanks to their 1000 weekly effects that are back.
[ he is, he also loves to fight and compete so despite livio's best efforts, razlo is now haru's season 4 swimming rival. a swimming race may or may not happen in this thread ]
We are. With our combined swimability scores, there's no way we can lose.
[ razlo can join his long list of swim rivals, that's fine. haru is not competitive (yet) but he's used to this silly rival behavior.
but that can be later. right now, he nods firmly, because swimability is so important. ]
We're nearly there.
[ beneath the confidence though is restless energy, bordering on dread. there's so much riding on tomorrow. so much he needs to happen, but also isn't looking forward to.
he'll gesture for livio to like, sit or crouch by the pool though. ]
[ forcing another season of free on me is a criminal offense so sorry razlo but your swimming career is over
more importantly, he will pat livio on the head. lightly. pat pat. he is really so bad at touching people but he's doing his best; strangely enough, in moments like this, it's easier to be open with his words than with physical gestures. ]
Whatever happens tomorrow, I love you. I'm glad we're a team. ...I don't want to lose my chance to make sure you know.
[ there's a note of stilted sincerity there, familial and gentle. ]

...You're too tall. Come here.

Almost.
[ livio is also quite nervous and full of dread for tomorrow. he's forcing himself to be hopeful so he doesn't dwell on the alternatives. but ]
[ he'd sort of been slowly wading into the shallow end to supervise poppy swimming, but he drifts closer to haru and crouches down obediently ]
