Being read to by a pool, in what would probably end up being morning sunlight (the weather was seldom anything other than sunny), sounded like a small piece of heaven. Part of Ignis wanted to feel a little guilty about taking up Alcuin's time like that, but he had volunteered, and... it was simply pleasant, having company again. Having something like a friend, again.
As would have surprised exactly no one who knew him, Ignis was as much on time as it was possible to be for a meeting scheduled as nebulously as'the morning'. Despite that implicit formality, though, he'd left his jacket behind in his room and rolled up his sleeves. There weren't a lot of ways to indicate that one was off-duty, so to speak, but he trusted that would do.
On arriving at the pool area, Ignis gave the actual water a hopefully-wide and careful pass. He could swim, but misjudging the rim and accidentally falling in would... not endear himself anywhere.
