"It is swimmable. We can tack the sails and anchor ourselves if you wanted." For a future trip, Loki planned to look into scuba diving for her. Also a visit to Australia, as it had been on her list.
"Got it!" Loki followed where she was pointing, steering (as much as one could) that way. Making sure they were decently in the darker section, before he tacked the sails down and let their pace slow. Then the anchor was dropped, and just finishing securing the boat so they could enjoy some time in the water too.
"If you like. I admit I'd be a most miserable patient, likely." Loki said. Peeling off his own linen shirt and likewise having worn swim-shorts under his casual slacks. "And while I do like you taking care of me, I don't relish it being because I'm injured."
He is, but he was hardier than he looked. Even if she hadn't gotten quite the crash course in Jotunn physiology, Christine had learned enough now about Asgardians to realize just how different they were, for all that they looked human. Jotunns were similar in many ways to an Asgardian.
"It has been fun, and I would like to keep it that way, Sweetling." Coming to take her hand, bringing it up to kiss.
He is very sturdy but might still be able to burn. She'd rather be safe then to be left with a grumpy, sunburned frost giant.
She pulls him close and kisses him before roughly shoving him backwards, hopefully over the edge of the boat. Revenge for him throwing her in the ocean when they arrived.
There is a moment of surprise with the shove. She'd caught him off guard enough that he goes over and lands in the water with a splash. Surfacing a moment later, brushing his hair out of his eyes, he swims backwards a bit. "Going to join me, or just lord over me from the boat?"
It went without saying that he was too. "I will happily help you with your revenge schemes, Sweetling." With a mental caress accompanying that thought.
"I've had more experience, it's true." Loki winked. Then shifted to conjure up a pair of goggles attached to a snorkel for her. "The website did make it sound as if these were essential. I know they're not the same as your want for scuba-gear..." Offering them to her.
"I try to not make friends with dinner." Loki kissed her cheek in turn, then let her have her space. "Have fun Christine. I...enjoy just being with you." It calmed him, as he'd told her before.

It had been some time since she had sailed, but she remembered the basics.
They got a nice breeze that carried them across the water and kept them at least somewhat cool.
"The water is gorgeous." It was turquoise and clear enough to show the reefs below.

She keeps watch on the water to find somewhere a bit deeper to drop anchor.

Christine had been wearing a sundress over a bikini and she quickly pulls the dress over her head. She has cast a sunscreen charm on herself.
"Want me to cast on you as well? Just in case you can sunburn?"

"The rest of our trip wouldn't be much fun if you were blistered."
And he is very pale, he could end up blistered.

When she surfaces near him she's laughing.
"Now I go for revenge, I guess."

She chuckles. The water is the perfect temperature and she can see little schools of fish swimming below them.

Though then she's smiling before donning the snorkel.
"It's just to see this look, right?" With a full mask, and the nasally way she speaks with her nose covered, it's a look.

"I hope this is rude on Asgard as well."
