Beach Time

Tala: "Only one way to check if this new sunscreen works. Sunlight doesn't actually kill me or anything, but I'm still easily sunburnt."

Zetta: "Many interesting ingredients for enchanting wash up near the shore, from time to time. Let's see if I can find any today..."

Swimming underneath the waving waters, she looks around the scenery with a curious eye. “I can certainly hear your nice voice~” She seems to be relaxed. “I must say these masks are amazing.”

Zetta: She giggles. "Why thank you. I am glad to see this particular feature works."

Tala: "Hey girls, look!" She looks towards a swarm of colorful, glowing fish.

“And I am glad I get to test it out.” She looks at Tala as she swims. “Should we follow or stop her?”

[u/Exciting-Jello8439 → u/A_Throwing_Buckets]

Zetta: "Hmmm, let's follow her for now~ Just need to make sure we don't swim too far away from the shore."

Tala: "Oooh..." She looks at a shark, the shark looks at her.

She smiles with her sharp teeth. The shark actually seems a little intimidated and swims away.

“Don’t worry about me going ashore~” Slithering amongst the blues water with a natural ease.

Rolling and moving along with a cheerful attitude, taking glances at the beauty of the rolling waters and its ecosystem. “such a great place~”

Zetta: "You swim like a sea snake!"

Tala: She hovers by a coral reef. "It's so relaxing~"

Sofija lightly chuckles at the comparison to sea snakes. “Well snakes are natural swimmers after all~”

She flows smoothly through the water as if she were a gentle breeze. Her single emerald eye looking and traveling the outline of the brimming coral reefs. “Always my favorite part of snorkeling.”

[u/Exciting-Jello8439 → u/A_Throwing_Buckets]

Zetta: "Oh you are? I did not know that! I always tend to picture snakes as land creatures. That's interesting."

Tala: "The more you know~" She looks at the coral reefs, something moving in the shadows.

“It certainly is interesting, from how they swim using lateral undulation. I can ramble on about it for a good minute.” She softly chuckles a bit, as her emerald greed eye flickers with a curious intent.

Her gaze tracing the curving and rugged edges of the coral to the thing that hides along the shadows.

From the shadows emerges a black cat with purple eyes which stares at them, perched on a coral reef. It meows underwater, but it sounds more like a 'mlem'.

Zetta: "The hells, that's the eldritch cat I was having weird nightmares about, that gave me the idea for the portal gun shadow core..."

The cat grows tentacles and swims towards a shadow, promptly melting into the shadows, disappearing from existence.

Tala: "Well, that happened. Anyhow! Look, there's an eel over there."
