[adelphoi]

[ oh dear child, unfiltered is the last thing you need to worry about.. alisaie's mouth curves into a coy smile. ]

Ah, have you never visited these pools? The waters are enchanted.

[ she could be making this story up to be a menace, but fortunately, she doesn't have to. it's entirely true. alisaie doesn't seem terribly perturbed, however, she's already approaching the edge of the lagoon. ]

But 'tis nothing painful or permanent, you've nothing to worry about.

[foolsvessel]

[ her eyes widen and she glances at the water, now curious to see what sort of enchantments it has. ]

Woah... that's cool. [ and she knows that she can trust alisaie about this. so far, she's never done anything to prove herself to not be trustworthy.

stretching out a little, there's a faint grin spreading out on her lips. ] So what do you think we will find out here?

[adelphoi]

Crystals, hopefully! The best ones are near the bottom. Are you a strong swimmer?

[ she says, while leaning to stretch her legs. this swim is gonna be so great. ]

[foolsvessel]

Of course, they are. Don't worry though! I'm pretty decent at swimming.

[ she has strong legs thanks to netball after all. ] This is going to be fun.

[adelphoi]

[ good to know she probably won't have to launch an aquatic rescue. ]

Yes, it shall. Are you ready?

[foolsvessel]

I'm as ready as ever!

Let's go exploring underwater. [ she's going to enjoy this a lot. ]

[adelphoi]

Right! Well that is more than enough limbering up, then.

[ one last arch to stretch out her back, before alisaie takes a running dive right into the lagoon. ]

[foolsvessel]

[ grinning, mianko claps her hands together.

she isn't going to dive in like alisaie so she is going to be a little old fashion and get to the edge of the lagoon, sitting down and pushes herself into the water that way. ]

It feels really refreshing to be in here.

[adelphoi]

[ alisaie bursts back up with a quick breath, her hair a wild, wet mess, but she doesn't seem to be bothered by it, given her broad grin. ]

It certainly does.

[foolsvessel]

[ the sight of alisaie makes her glad she kept her hair up, it keeps it out of her eyes and she only needs to worry about her fridge. ]

Kind of curious of how the enhancements will affect me.

[adelphoi]

Thankfully, none of them I have witnessed have been terribly concerning, but I suppose we shall soon find out.

[ gliding to the center of the lagoon, she glances down toward the bottom, through the clear water. ]

I'll try to find us a good one.

[foolsvessel]

Maaaybe this will be a first. [ but for minako's sake, let's hope not.

ducking her head under the water for a moment, she comes back up when alisaie starts talking to her again. ]

A nice, big, pretty one!

[adelphoi]

[ the bigger the better, indeed!! the bigger, the more money they get for it..

without another word, and the flash of a smile, alisaie ducks beneath the surface again and kicks her way down to the bottom, quick as a dart, scouring the sandy lagoon bottom for the biggest, most alluring gems. ]

[foolsvessel]

[ with a sly grin, she'll watch alisaie for a couple of seconds before deciding to go down into the water herself. there's no reason that she can't have some fun, too.

at first, she thought she would have some trouble finding the gems because, well, it wouldn't be wise to have her eyes open in the lagoon. but, that isn't the case. it seems whatever magic here that alisaie mentioned earlier is working it's, well, magic as she's able to spot some small ones residing in the sandy bottom.

minako wastes no time in snacking it one up and swimming up, lifting her head out of the water. ]

That's so cool...

[adelphoi]

[ alisaie is down for a good while longer, taking advantage of her underwater breathing hack in order to snoop out all the best looking gems, the biggest and clearest that she's sure will earn some good coin. with an armful of particularly lustrous ones, she kicks her way back to the surface and breaks above it. ]

Did you find a good one?

[foolsvessel]

It's small, but... [ she inches closer to alisaie and holds up the gem. it's sparkling with a pretty shade of purple that's mixed with blue. ]

I think the colour is good! Does size matter at all?

[adelphoi]

Oh, it's lovely!

[ look how shiny.. and what pretty colors. ]

Generally speaking I believe that he prefers larger ones, but given the choice between a small beautiful gem, and a large unremarkable one, I am certain he would choose you.

[foolsvessel]

I guess that depends on if he's the type of person that cares about how they look or not.

[ she tossing the gem between her hands, keeping an eye on it. ]

I almost want to keep one for myself.
