[ adam's not looking for the pool when he finds it, but he's not really looking for much of anything. his room, perhaps, but all of the hallways look the same, and the ones that don't are in some state of disarray from something that must have happened before he arrived - so for now, he's content to wander until he finds his way, or something interesting catches his eye.
at the moment, it's a bright plastic egg bobbing by the water's edge, and the woman clearly unimpressed by it. adam pauses where he is, tall and nearly silent, only a few steps into the door and onto the pool deck, intending to pass through. his big blue eyes shift between the woman in the pool and the plastic bauble floating in the weak wake. maybe it's just that she can't reach it that irritates her.
with a few long, quiet strides, adam crouches by the edge and rests some of his weight on one knee, the rest on his haunches, unbothered by the pool water seeping into his trousers where his knee touches the deck. he leans and reaches and scoops the egg out of the water, and then pauses to look at cellar. his voice is rough when he speaks, and he holds the egg just a little above the ground by his knee. ] ... Should I leave it here for you?
