Oh, I am way too dumb to be scared of anybody punching me.

[ He just kinda likes you, Dutch. What a weird pickle they're both in.

Jim carries on even when this layer of suncreen is well rubbed in beyond needing any more, because he likes sitting here, touching her skin, just enjoying the weather. Warm without Wyver's oppressive humidity; makes it comfortable despite the risk of turning into a crispy lobster. ]

That's dangerous.

( she could make some threatening move to disabuse him of the notion that he's too dumb, but — it's warm and she's comfortable, salt and sun and sunscreen on her skin, his hands pleasant. why move? )

MMhm.

[ What, does she suddenly have a problem with dangerous things? Gurl pls no one believes that.

After a while, Jim's done about all the work he can do, and slips his fingers up to the base of her neck, giving her one last caress, before flopping down beside her on his back. Hat still over his head, haphazard. ]
