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.

[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]

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.

[descaledmute]

demon jellyfish?!

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

[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.

[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.

[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?

[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!]

[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]

Oh! Sorry.

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

[descaledmute]

Really? That would be wonderful!

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

[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.

[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.]

[compendiem]

Sure. I'll be waiting.

What do you mean?

[descaledmute]

You're welcome!

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

[descaledmute]

Atlantis has been long abandoned. Rarely anyone speaks of it.

[blastoffed]

what???

[A mermaid! Wow, things really are wild in this place! No wonder this person is looking for water; that's god to be familiar territory for her!

...wait]

i hope you're not drying up!

[He's pretty sure he still has a couple water bottles he got from the train during that escape a couple days ago. If it's for someone else to live he would go and use them to, like, soak them up!]

[compendiem]

[ That's because Atlantis isn't- ... well, anyways, ]

What's your home like?

[descaledmute]

Lively! I suppose that comes naturally when it's an underwater city, but the people there are really nice.

The water's really comfortable to swim in and there's little you can't find. If you can't find something, you can order something from another ocean to have it delivered.

Anysia is nice too! Though I didn't spend a lot of time there before I woke up here. I'm still getting used to being around humans and what a lot of the things actually mean.

[descaledmute]

I'm not, I promise!

I need to drink a lot of water if I can't swim in any, as I get pretty dehydrated quickly. Haven't had any problems yet but that's also kind of why I would like to find a place to swim so I don't take away anyone's drinking water.

[compendiem]

Sounds like a wonderful place.
I'm still getting used to being around humans too. Been around plenty of cities, though. You can always ask me if you need help identifying stuff.

[blastoffed]

we gotta stick together so don't be afraid to talk to any of us. nobody would deny you some water

[Kaito has a lot of faith in everyone's capacity to work together in these terrible circumstances, really! Because so far, he has no reason to believe people wouldn't -- so far, everyone he has met seems to be agreeable]

[descaledmute]

Really? That's quite a relief.

I hadn't asked before since I really didn't want to be a bother or anything.
