By the time that the game started to gradually slow down, Vahliri was already feeling heavily buzzed and warm in the face. While she certainly wasn’t a lightweight, the half-Annfyn didn’t share the hyperactive filtration system of her Tiefling companions, and the fact she had to drink for damn-near every question certainly contributed to her current state.
Despite her otherwise cheery mood, Vahliri didn’t miss the way that Altair excused himself from the group after one question in particular - and her own fluted ears almost immediately bended downward upon seeing the Tiefling’s tail drag behind him. She chewed down on her bottom lip, her gaze only breaking away to watch as Wodan followed the Tiefling towards the balcony.
No small part of her wanted to instinctively make her way in that direction, but the half-Annfyn ultimately decided against it - allowing the two of them their space rather than crowding in. Instead, the half-Annfyn merely allowed to gaze to linger for a long moment - flashing the Tiefling a tender, knowing smile before her attention was drawn towards Alia - watching as the Tiefling proceeded to cannonball into the pool, followed shortly thereafter by several others.
Vahliri’s brow immediately rose upon hearing the latest game announced, blinking a few times as her amber eyes drew across the suggested participants with an abundance of scrutiny. Her gaze first flicked towards the younger Acolytes, and she couldn’t help the way her face scrunched up the moment she spotted the coffin-dodgers Nova attempted to drag into the mix - especially considering the fact that one them was easily old enough to be her father.
The half-Annfyn had no desire to go straddling the shoulders of a fossil, and proceeded to aggressively roll her eyes upon spotting the seductive way that Nova tried to lure them in. At this point, she wouldn't be surprised if the Acolyte started sniffing around the veteran's homes.
Shaking her head, Vahliri threw back the rest of her drink - setting the red solo cup down before walking her way over to the pool. Her gaze flicked back towards the balcony where Wodan and Altair were still lingering. “You both coming?” She called out, flashing the Tiefling a smile before turning her attention back to the pool. With that, Vahliri stepped off the ledge - diving forward and allowing her body to slip beneath the water’s surface with a splash.
Deciding against climbing on Coffey’s back and likely putting out the dude’s hip, Vahliri swam beneath the water and towards the pools edge - rising back up to the surface just in front of Alia. While the rest of the participants sorted out their partners, the half-Annfyn gestured up to her own shoulders, flashing a grin. “I’m game if you are,”
Only once Alia was securely on her shoulders did Vahliri glance over go Draugr, flashing the Zabrak a smirk. “Sorry, Master Draugr - looks like I already have a partner.” With that, Vahliri began to wade her way towards the center of the group - her small stature only accentuated by how high the water up on her body.
