Hello!

If you haven't met me yet, I'm Calia.

This might come as something of an odd question but are there any bodies of water or anything of the sort available for swimming? Maybe?

I've been missing my home and just getting the chance to swim again would be quite nice.

I'd go and look for that on my own but I don't think it's wise for me to head out on my own, given my situation.

There's a well in the greenhouse. Dunno how far down you'd have to go to get water, though.
If that doesn't work, maybe we can dig a pool.

[descaledmute]

yes! please tell me how we can achieve this.

something. anything would be nice.

swimming is fun. everyone would enjoy it if we could swim around.

[compendiem]

There's shovels in the greenhouse.

[ They'll just. you know. dig a large hole?? transport water there from somewhere? they can make this happen. ]

I think swimming is fun too. Did you have a large pool back home? Live near the beach?

[descaledmute]

A shovel? what's that?

Nope. I used to live in the ocean, actually.

[compendiem]

A shovel is like a really big spoon. If you're near the greenhouse, I can meet you there and show you.

Something like Atlantis?

[descaledmute]

OH. I'm not too far from the greenhouse. Please. I would like to see it.

Atlantis? Nobody's touched that in thousands of years.

[compendiem]

Sure. I'll be waiting.

What do you mean?

[blastoffed]

watch out!! i bet there are demons in any water you could find. be ready to fight demon jellyfishes or smth!

[Survival is important and that's why he felt the need to pipe up about that possibility]

[descaledmute]

demon jellyfish?!

that sounds horrible! maybe they'd listen to me?

[blastoffed]

you probably can negotiate with them. think you can offer something good to some fish demon trying to eat you?

[descaledmute]

I believe so! We would both be sea creatures so who best to understand them than me?

Granted their dialect may be a little different but I should be able to understand them.

[blastoffed]

hey, what was that first part again?

[He read that message like four times trying to see if he misinterpreted something. Kaito hadn'tseen coming the part about the person he's talking to being a sea creature!]

[descaledmute]

Oh! Sorry.

While I lack my fins, I'm still technically a mermaid.

[dancinglight]

[A body of water, huh? She has been mulling over their resource options but hasn't seen one so far. It was a request that made Tsubaki think back to her own home. Her mind drifted back to where she came from. It wasn't something she gave much thought to generally, opting out of trying to think of her past when it was possible.]

I haven't come across something like that myself yet. I wouldn't mind offering my company to help look if you want, though.

[Was it to look for a solid water source or to reminisce? Mayhaps a bit of both. She decided to focus more on the practical use, though.]

I'm Tsubaki.

[descaledmute]

Really? That would be wonderful!

It's to meet you Tsubaki! Such a pretty name!

[dancinglight]

Ah, thank you.

[She appreciates it, she's just not good at receiving complements.]

We may have to see the map for possible leads. Is there a good place for you to meet up?

[Assuming she wanted to check now. If not, Tsubaki could always wait. They had plenty of time here, after all.]

[descaledmute]

You're welcome!

The greenhouse? I can make my way over there fairly quickly.

[dancinglight]

The greenhouse it is. I'll be there shortly.

[And with that, it didn't take her too long to get there. Though Calia was likely closer than Tsubaki was. Approaching what she assumed to be Calia, she gave her a friendly wave.]

Hope you weren't waiting too long for me.

[descaledmute]

[ Calia looked up and gave an enthusiastic wave of her hand in turn, straightening up and then shook her head at that question. Her gaze tracked over the other woman curiously, wordlessly mouthing 'Pretty' before she could think twice.

Only to look away almost sheepishly, despite never having actually said a word out loud or anything like that. Instead opting to type something on her COMP to show Tsubaki. ]

You said we should check the maps, correct? is that on the comp too?

[nterwebz]

lemme know if u find fish or drinkin watr
thers gotta be a soda squirnter round here somewhere

[descaledmute]

Of course! I would be very happy to see fish here so I will let you know if I can find any.

A soda what? i've never heard of that before.

[nterwebz]

[ ... ]

whered u say u were from again
an like

when???

[descaledmute]

Penninah. It's located under the ocean.

I wouldn't normally say it so easily but it's not as though we can visit it here. I was also more recently in Anysia which was a human village? Not sure if that is the right term or not.

When? I believe 1410?

[nterwebz]

the 1400s????
im not

what country is that in exactly?? (゜-゜)

[descaledmute]

Yes?
what year do you come from?

I believe it's called Egrines. A friend told me. I didnt know much about the world outside my home in the ocean until I wasn't in it.
