[Accidental Voice/Action]

[Raine's been pretty much hanging out in the river for the past few days or so since Cloud put her in there. It makes sense, considering that the woman got turned into a mermaid. Currently she's hovering at the edge, clinging on to a small plank of wood to keep her from going under (even though she's ... a mermaid, yes),

[corrinesbell]

So this is where you went.

[wise_maiden]

Not... willingly.

[corrinesbell]

You couldn't just sit in the bathtub?

[wise_maiden]

It was... preferable. [If somewhat painful and restrictive.]

[corrinesbell]

Then why are you here instead?

[wise_maiden]

Extenuating circumstances. Besides, it's... probably better, for this body. [She makes a slight face at that.]

[corrinesbell]

Are you gonna be okay when you turn back into yourself?

[wise_maiden]

W-why wouldn't I be?

[corrinesbell]

...Well...I dunno...I guess I figured you weren't much of a swimmer.

[wise_maiden]

I-I'll be fine. Can we just not talk about things like that?

[corrinesbell]

You could just admit you're afraid of water. No one'd mock you for it. ...Well, okay, maybe Zelos would.

[wise_maiden]

[She's just going to be a sulky mermaid at that.]

[corrinesbell]

Sorry. I'd help but water and lightning don't mix well.

[wise_maiden]

No, not particularly.

[corrinesbell]

Want me to see if I can find Genis for you?

[wise_maiden]

I'd rather he not see me like this, but I'm sure he'd find his way over eventually.
