Elle smiles.

"Please don't tell me you guys are talking about smashing this place up"

Elle laughs.

"Well that's good hat all I keep hearing people talk about haha, so bow have you guys been good?"

Vara sits on the last stair, aimlessly braiding her hair as she looks around. It was weird to think that this was going to be their last week here. She had become so used to the monotonous routine of Big Brother that the thought of anything else made her slightly anxious. The freedom she was going to have by the end of the week made her both excited and scared at the same time.

Vara floats on her back in the pool, her eyes closed and her hair flowing around her face. She figured that this was one of the last times she was going to get to hang out in this pool for the rest of her life, and she wanted to take advantage of it. She was really going to miss the Big Brother house - maybe not so much the show, but definitely the house - but she was looking forward to being able to smoke inside without feeling bad... and walking around naked. Or more naked than she usually is. Plus, she was taking the best part of Big Brother home with her: Mariko. That made the whole debacle of the show worth it.

Much like Spiderman's Spidey-Senses, Vara can immediately pick up on if somebody is singing one of her songs in her general vacinity. She lifts her head up slightly and opens her eyes to see who it is, noticing Elle. "You have good taste," she says with a small laugh, waving at her. "You snuck up on me, I didn't realize you were out here as well."

"Ah, thank you," Vara says, waving Elle off when she says that she has good taste because of her music. "I just write what I feel. My feelings have good taste... and I think I'll be writing a lot after we finish here. It's been a crazy few weeks. Too much has happened to not write about it." She climbs out of the pool and towels off before walking over and sitting with Elle. "What've you been up to lately? Ready for this to be over with?"

Vara grins a little when Elle says that she's been cleaning, knowing that a lot of the mess has been her and Mariko's, in acts of desperation for something to do. "Um, I'm not really sure how I feel about leaving here. On one hand, I cannot wait to sleep in my own bed. That'll be wonderful... but on the other hand, my place does not have a garden this nice..." She laughs a little.

Vara laughs and looks around. If she were honest with herself, it wasn't really the garden that she was going to miss. There were just so many memories connected to this place now. Leaving it behind would be like leaving behind part of herself. She hated introspection, but she had done a lot of it these part few weeks, and she was beginning to become more and more afraid that when she was back in the real world, she wouldn't be able to keep her promise to Mariko about staying faithful. She turns to Elle and gives a small smile before looking down. "Do you think Mariko and I can work outside of Big Brother?" She asks after a couple moments of silence. "Be honest."

Vara gives Elle a small smile back. Even though she wasn't sure if she fully believed Elle, she was happy to hear that somebody had faith in them. "Thanks, hun," she says back, giving Elle a hug. "When we get out of here, we're going to get you somebody as well, and then we'll go out on double dates, and make everybody crazy jealous."

Elle laughs.

"Oh that sounds like total fun, get me a girl or guy I don't mind like em both, double dates are awesome sometimes"
