Firestone Hot Springs communication is key

Luckily the snobby kid decided to accept the offered truce, and Charon relaxed a little. He didn't want to get into another big fight, as he'd rather spare his energy towards more honourable goals than beating up a little kid. Charon smiled and said: "I'm Charon, Beta of Stavanger Bay." He loved to flaunt how young a Beta he was at any time; this was no exception.

The adult that'd been in the pools left without a word -- rude! -- possibly because he was irritated by the bickering adolescents, and Charon watched him leave. He didn't reply with more than a shrugful expression on his face to Casmir's question before suggesting: "Hey, wanna try it out?" Truth was, Charon thought the water a bit daunting himself, for while he knew it wasn't (the other adult had been laying in it, after all) it still looked scalding hot... He carefully dipped in a paw, hoping it wasn't as hot as it looked.
