She takes a deep breath and ducks down into the water, slipping away, or at least trying to.

*Kero has a vicegrip when he uses his claws...but none when he doesn't...he slips off and floats up...unlike Tam, though...the superheated area of the pool they are in doesn't bother him*

They have strayed in too deep for her comfort and she begins to get woozy. Coming up for air, she paddles weakly to the side. Both Hopian and Kero have forgotten she's not a d. miner and snow lions don't do well in extreme heat.

*And so she gets the help of two who do...they gently tow her out and lead her to a cooler pool, helping her in, though the cold saps their strength*

She thanks them gratefully, licking Kero's nose as he worriedly helps her in. "Thank you, dulcha. You go swim... have fun... I'll be alright now. Sorry to put such a cold damper on yer fun."

She giggles and pushes him to the main soaking pool. "Go... have fun... we got all night... once I'm cooled down, I'll come and groom yer fur iffin ye want."

*Kero nods, and dives in again, letting the heated water get him up to temp again*

Once Ai is cooled down she wanders over to where Fortuny is longing with Salunia. "I don't know how he does it. All that heat makes me so light headed. I was ready for a roll in the snow, I tell ye... How are you two doing." she says with a soft laugh, easing in beside them.

*Fortuny is gently cuddling Sal, soothing away some of the pain*
We're doing better...the water helped some...wish I had some copper...supposedly it helps a little too...something in it destabilizes the venom...

Ai frowns. "Really, what form does it have to be in? I've never heard of that before." She rubs noses with the cub and teases a sad smile to her face.
"Have you figured out who I am yet, Princess?"

Ai laughs merrily. "And so I am... some say I'm lucky... others say I'm cursed... but this is how I am... when I want to be a lion, I kind of look more like you and your momma than Kero and yer Dad... so, I promised you some ice cream... what flavor do you like best?"
