I can surely watch Sunshine some afternoon if you'd like to go afterwards. It's only fair trade for you keeping an eye on Verity for me.

well i'm not a very good swimmer anyway. and i'm worried i might freeze myself in place if i get scared out there. （；￣д￣）

[founderinglight]

Well, I'm not entirely sure the swimming problem will be a concern. Though I suppose the effect will probably end when the Fissure is stabilized...

Still, I haven't exactly had to worry about drowning yet.

omg zuzu that's so creepy!!! i don't want to be a fish man!!!!!

[founderinglight]

What, you don't want the excuse to run around shirtless and show off even more of your muscle?

[You can practically hear the teasing. He's got you so pegged, Prompto, he's noticed your arms.]

[photoshooter]

no!!! i'm not GLADIO.

also my chest doesn't look as good as my arms, you can already tell thru a shirt.

[founderinglight]

Maybe you should do some crunches.

It's not that terrible for the short term, really, though it takes a bit of getting used to.

[photoshooter]

i do crunches! i work out!! some of us don't build up like that!

is it way weird? do you still have lungs?

[founderinglight]

I would presume so? I haven't had any trouble breathing air, at any rate, the gills tend to close reflexively above water.

My own situation would probably qualify as 'way weird,' but that's more a function of this specific form, I think. I have learned a great deal about octopus anatomy firsthand in a way I never expected.

do you have a mouth down in your........................you kno???

[founderinglight]

Thank goodness, no.

But as it turns out, octopuses taste everything they touch.

It is alternately interesting and terrible and generally very overwhelming.

[photoshooter]

ewww. there can't be that many good things to taste down there.

[founderinglight]

The water itself is fine for the most part. It's not quite the same as mouth-tasting. Other people and things are pretty interesting, though.

[photoshooter]

did you TELL them you were tasting them????

[founderinglight]

The one I did intentionally, yes.

The other is my brother in law after an accidental collision and I am not risking my life touching that entire nest of hornets.

[photoshooter]

brother in law??????

[founderinglight]

Trust me, I was as surprised as you are.

They're rather tooth-rotting together, actually.
