"Of course, friend! You look incredible," Xhuli winks at Mikoto before jumping up on her feet, "Time to get changed, I guess." She smirks. She then pulls at her sweater covering her and finds a clasp that she must have added to it to make it a cover-up at some point (probably yesterday). It seems she still has the same work ethic, it's just all for stuff that she wants. She drops her sweater. [ Xhuli's? Theme] It becomes somewhat transparent that the girl was being somewhat mischievous with her timing, making sure that she wouldn't scare Mikoto off while they were in the changing room, and making sure to get a captive audience of most of her fellow students. It's a bikini that's very playful. Tied tightly with plenty of straps and pieces of fabric crisscrossing her body. It's clear she had been up for hours last night working on it. She giggles and tries to act cute, but it's so obvious that she wants attention that it seems better not to give it to her. Then again, she does look cool... She ties her big mass of hair back into a big ponytail and jumps playfully into the water with a big splash.

"Wait a second, didn't she say she couldn't swim?" Nico asks, a bit worried. "Was that a joke, or...?"
He looks around to see if Xhuli resurfaces on her own.

Xhuli had jumped closer to the shallow end but she's still so short that she can't just stand up where she's at. She bounces up and down, breathing whenever she reaches the surface.

"Oh yeah, thanks Yugi." Hella says nonchalantly.

Xhuli finally makes it over to the side of the pool and pulls herself up, having struggled all the way there. Her hair looks very strange wet, but no matter how tangled it should be getting, somehow the demonic part of it prevents it from getting matted.
She splutters, "Okay! Do you guys want to do some chicken fighting? Faye? Hella? Cal?"

"I dunno. I just grabbed every bottle that said whiskey from the bar." Faye explained, not explaining anything. "No, no, no." Korrigan says, going over to Faye. "One bottle would be one thing, but that many is not needed. I'm going to take these extras back. The last thing we need here is broken glass." Korrigan will go over and extend an arm to accept the excess bottles. "Pick your favorite whiskey. The others will go back to the bar."

"No, don't take 'em!" Caitlin shouted, quickly standing up and rushing over, leaving her book behind. "Faye was gonna share those. With me. Obviously."

"I want broken glass though for the coolest rock competition. Smash it! Smash it!" Xhuli chants. Apparently she intends to somehow follow through on this rock thing for Hella whether the paleontologist cares or not. It also seems like she wants chaos.

"The hell is chicken figh- "I want broken glass though for the coolest rock competition. Smash it! Smash it!" Xhuli chants. Apparently she intends to somehow follow through on this rock thing for Hella whether the paleontologist cares or not. It also seems like she wants chaos. "Yeah okay..." Hella turns away from Xhuli. "No, don't take 'em!" Caitlin shouted, quickly standing up and rushing over, leaving her book behind. "Faye was gonna share those. With me. Obviously." "You're a rabbit ghost that Faye carries around?"

Xhuli smiles at Hella's reaction. "Sounds like you're really tempted," she jokes.
"Ooh! What if we make big pyramids of like three or four people and then fight like that? Mikoto, are you interested?"

"No!" Faye protectively hugged her unreasonable amount of booze closer to her chest. "There's none back at the school! I need to stock up! It's Jack's favorite drink..."
"... And he's not fat!" she pouted in Mikoto's general direction.

"Ohhhh! Great idea smuggling as much as possible," Xhuli grins. "You're really doing your best to get wasted."

"Ohhhh! Great idea smuggling as much as possible," Xhuli grins. "You're really doing your best to get wasted." "Shut up. I'm not." Faye snapped back. "... It tastes bad anyways."

"Well if you want a really good drink then someone will have to bring some of the mixers so we can make something that tastes good," Xhuli teases from the side of the pool. "It's funnn!"
"But alcohol's not about the taste, it's about the feel, which I think is wasted on Jack..." she says slyly.
"Come on, Faye! You said it yourself this situation sucks and it's depressing. Why not just... go crazy, go stupid?"

"Shut up!" Faye yelled, something about Xhuli breaking her composure entirely. "... Everyone else is pretending they're fine with you or something, but I'm not! You're weird, and I hate you, and, and, and I want Yugi back...!"

"If this is who Yugi wanted to be, then there never was a Yugi at all," Caitlin quietly reasoned. "There was only ever Xhuli beneath the surface."

Xhuli jumps out of the water, rivers of chlorinated water dripping off of her skin and hair, her eyes shimmer.
"Faye, I'm better than her. Why would you want to go back to the lesser version?" she tilts her head. "Cait is right, there never was a Yugi."
"We're circling the drain, Faye. We are trying to make the best of a bad situation. Everyday blends into the next if you let it. But I'm not letting that happen to you or anyone else here. I'm not going to just be the same forever."
"Things change, and it's for the better," her smile is slightly threatening now.
With a sudden burst of energy, Zhuli bounds over to Faye and picks her up and dangles her over the pool. She's very strong for her build.
"Let's go crazy, okay?"

"Damn, that's kinda deep." Hella agrees with Caitlin. "Can't say I approve of the new chick, just think it's easier not to rock the plank she's floating on."
"OH FUCK!" Hella notices Xhuli's potentially murderous intent.

"Xhuli, what the fuck?" Caitlin shouted. "Fer Christ's sake, put her back down on the ground or I'll kick yer ass!"

Xhuli covers her mouth as she giggles. "You don't have your phone on you, do you?"

Caitlin rolled up her sleeves, ready to throw down.

"It's just water. Our security officer did worse when he scared Ige into falling in. I'm not going to feel bad for her. She doesn't feel bad for me," Xhuli doesn't take an eye off of her victim.

She's very strong for her build. "Let's go crazy, okay?" Faye seemed as though she was about to keep arguing, but it quickly devolved into a screech as Xhuli easily picked her up and carried her off to the pool. The bottles she was holding, of course, scattered and shattered all over the floor in the scuffle. "Let! Go of me!" she said, struggling against the surprisingly much stronger girl. That was when the jackalope, which must have been skulking somewhere out of sight this entire time as it liked to do, rushed towards Xhuli while brandishing its horns.

Xhuli climbs up on the diving board putting some distance between herself and Cait and Jack.
She easily walks all the way to the end of the board. Just a small push would send them both into the deep end.
"I thought you two hated each other! Look I'm helping you guys make friends, how cute..."

"You can't just pick someone up and throw them in the water!"
Caitlin walked up to Xhuli like in that one panel where Jotaro walks up to Dio (you know the one, fuck off) but she was quickly cut off by the jackalope.
"...now there's fucking glass everywhere..." she muttered. "Just put her back on the ground! Yer acting like a total eejit!"

Hearing the commotion, Felix came rushing into the pool room, eyes wide with worry.
"Wh-What's going on?!" he demanded in a tone equal parts desperate and firm. Seeing Xhuli basically holding Faye hostage, his eyes narrowed into a more fierce gaze.
"Xhuli... put her down. Please."

"Not the whiskey!" Hella shouts, ignoring the pain in her ears caused by Faye's voice. "Kick'er into the water Cait!"

"I wish I never even met you..." Faye growled. The jackalope, for its part, silently glowered a small distance away. "If there was never a Yugi then I never even liked you! I hate you! I hate you I hate you I hate you!"

Caitlin managed to sneak up on Xhuli and wrapped her hands around the other girl's huge ponytail. Stealth +10, Sleight of Hand +10.
