[i]Of course, Cyra being Cyra, she assumed that there would be a destination for their walk, as she found aimless strolls illogical; they didn't even help exercise all that much.
Nonetheless, she tightened her grip on Bedlam's hand slightly, smiling to herself when they bumped together, and continued to follow.[/i]

They walked for quite sometime before they came upon a wide river with a decently small waterfall feeding it. Bedlam let go of Cyra's hand and turned to her, gesturing towards the water with his hand. "Want to go for a dip? Might be fun."
-
"Uh... I dunno." [i]She looked over at her cybernetic arm, weighing her options. With a sigh, she clicked a hidden button on the arm, and it suddenly... ejected itself from Cyra's side. Her right side was now armless, and where the arm was attached to the torso was a literally screw for the cybernetic arm to screw itself onto. Additionally, she laid down her weaponry, before looking over at Bedlam, grasping his hand once more. She nodded once, signaling 'why not'.[/i]

"It's alright," [i]She responded, shaking her head. She followed Bedlam's example, pulling her tank top and sweatpants off and kicking her slippers off her feet so she would be left in her just her underwear. Apparently, there was not a shred of embarrassment coded into Cyra. And so, she took Bedlam's hand once more, waiting to follow him.[/i]

He led her to the water's edge and slowly sunk into the river, never letting go. "Embarrassement isn't coded in, is it?"
-
"I'd assume not. Why?" [i]She replied, gripping Bedlam's hand back tightly. She simply looked ahead, slowly wading deeper into the river.[/i]

"Your face would be red and you may not have stripped down. Normally girls don't get undressed that fast near me. I think that was a record." He chuckled as he released her hand and swam backwards slowly.
-
"Unsure why somebody would refuse to take clothing off... don't you do it every day? Showers, changing?" [i]She shrugged, before beginning a slow freestyle; she could still swim at a decent pace, even with only one arm; however she wasn't swimming straight forward, ag all.[/i]

"Yeah, but stripping in front of someone you're attracted to is extremely hard for some people because they get embarrassed...and other things. One of those things is the chance of rejection. Some people may hesitate, thinking their body isn't good enough." Bedlam swam over to Cyra and lightly tapped her on the head.
