[Let us hope that Yellow doesn't actually expect to catch any fish this morning, because someone has managed to spook it. This someone happens to be a blue-haired man dressed in black, one who had just made his way out of the forest and approached the shore.
He kneels down in front of the water, observes it for a few moments and finally submerges his hand. It looks like he's inspecting it for something.]
[ As she yawns, she notices out of the corner of her eyes that blue-haired person and tilts her head to watch that person curiously, wondering what he's doing. ]
[Hmmm. So there is cleaner water around here than the one in the fountain. He'll need to memorize this and...
Why, hello there, movement in the corner of his eye. Aether pulls back from the water and sits up so he can focus his gaze on Yellow. His hand automatically moves to rest on the black hilt jotting out of the sheath on his belt, only to stop there once he discovers the source of that movement.
Well then. This kid is someone he should be spooked by, is she? The man sighs and shakes his head in relief.]
Hey. [Pause.] Didn't think there would be anyone this far into the woods.

She hadn't expect anyone to be out here, either. ]
He-Hello! Did you come to visit the lake too?

[After a few moments, his hand gives the sheathed weapon one final squeeze and falls back to his side.]
I was looking for clean water.

[He smiles a bit as he returns his attention to the water surface.]
The animals must be happy.

[A blink, and he focuses his attention on the girl once more.]
Ah. I'm Aether.

[He nods softly in response.]
Do you mind if I stay here for a while? I need to clean out my gills.

[ ...wait, did she hear correctly? ] Huh? Gills?

[He blinks and makes a slightly confused face at her.]
What about them?

Um, nothing!
