Jean-Paul watched the younger boy hoist himself out of the pool, taking the opportunity to check him out covertly. Victor was cute if you liked them young, skinny, and green, he decided, but his tastes ran to the sturdier sort. He just nodded, keeping his expression of polite interest and his eyes fixed on Victor. "When you begin a sport at a young age, I think it's the best," he remarked. "Myself, per'aps it would be difficult to learn now, no? I think I 'ave no need of learning to swim, though." He shifted a little, dipping his feet below the water for a moment to savor the coolness; it would be nice to get in, but for lack of a bathing suit he was content to sit here. "Did you compete in the swimming?" he inquired, letting his gaze flicker down over Victor's body again. He didn't seem terribly athletic, but he wasn't as scrawny as he could have been; maybe there was more strength in that body than it looked like.
