Astrid smiles back, then looks up at the moon and says, "It really is.. There's something about seeing the moon from the midst of the wilderness, something so different from seeing it from a big, urban sprawl city.. The sky's clearer for one thing, and for another it just somehow feels more real.."

"Yes, it does, I couldn't agree more. So, what next?"

Astrid shrugs and says, "Dunno. What d'you want to do?"

"Skinny dipping sounds interesting, and it's not that cold out," he says with a laugh.

Astrid laughs and says with a wicked grin, "Well, there is a lake in the forest somewhere.."

"Well, then let's go find that lake." He starts to run and makes his hands torches so that they could see.

Astrid grins and starts to run with him but a little bit behind, a bit slower than her usual pace as she had to be careful not to jostle Nagaina too much. The snake seemed a bit disgruntled at the sudden burst of momentum, but she just snuggled tighter around Astrid's arm and resigned herself to it.

They come to the lake and he halts. He finds two large tree branches and burns them off the tree. He sets the into the ground and lights them on fire to make them into torches. He looks over at Astrid and gets lost in staring at her. He loved the way her skin looked in the flickering light of the fire. The vibrace it gave to her features. He just stands there and stares with his lips parted open.

As Scott busied himself with the fire, Astrid carefully unwinds Nagaina from around her arm, then reaches up to allow the snake to slither onto a tree branch. "Stay here, okay?" Astrid murmured, affectionately stroking the top of the python's head with one finger. When she turns to face Scott again, she catches sight of his expression and says, worry flitting over her expression, "What? Do I have something on my face? Did I get tree moss in my hair while we were running?" Instinctively she reaches up to comb her fingers through her hair, searching for the imagined offending object.

Scott snaps out of it and looks away from her saying, "Oh, nothing. No, your fine, it's cool." He turns his back to her and takes off his shirt, revealing his well built, muscular, upper body.

Astrid frowns, but shrugs and lets it go. She gives his newly revealed upper body a swift, appreciative once-over, then turns her back to him as she leans over to take off her boots, then straightens again as she strips off her black top and leather pants, tossing them to the base of the tree that Nagaina was perched in, revealing her own fit dancer's body and her black lace undergarmets.

Scott stripped off his pants and stood there for a moment in his boxers. Fighting not to look back at her, he strips off the rest of his clothing, revealing a sexy, muscled body, and walks slowly over to the water.

Astrid, the woman of no scruples, snuck a glance at Scott over her shoulder once the rustling of clothing had stopped, and was rewarded with a nice view of his ass. Grinning, she finished undressing and a moment after her clothes dropped to the forest floor, she ran at the lake with a wild whoop, diving in with a great splash, completely unphased by the fact that at night the water was inky black and seemed impenitrable, with no way to judge the depth. But that was just her way - dive on in, deal with the consequences later.

She splashed Scott and he jumped in right after her. Once they'd both resurfaced, he laughs and says, "Well, isn't this refreshing?" he laughs and splashes her.

Astrid yelps, caught unawares by the splash, then wrinkled her nose at him and splashed him back.

He laughs and looks at her with a sly smile. He turns around so that she can't see what he's doing.

Astrid raises an eyebrow and asks drily, "Should I give you and yourself some privacy?"

he laughs and says, "No, just hold on a second." Then all of a sudden, the water becomes extremely warm, almost jecuzzi (sp?) like. He turns around to face her and says, "Ahh, now that's much better." He grins at her and swims away from her.

Astrid smiles and says, "Mm, indeed." She ducks briefly under the water, wetting her hair fully, then emerges again and wipes her hair out of her face.

Scott moves closer to her and asks, "What do you do for fun?"
