Ahiru

[From here.]

[Saul shrugs, glancing out toward the water.]

It might. We'll just have to make some adjustments.

[SCIENCE, BITCH~]

[quackery]

Adjustments like what? More water? I think the water is different, too...

[5055034455]

Is it?

[Cue a thoughtful hum.]

I guess the only way to find out will be to experiment. Come along, Igor.

[quackery]

...What did you call me?

[5055034455]

Igor. You know, Doctor Frankenstein's assistant?

[quackery]

Doctor who?

[5055034455]

No, no. Wrong fandom.

[quackery]

Wait, what?

[5055034455]

What's on second.

[quackery]

I have no idea what you're talking about!

[5055034455]

Goodnight, everybody!

[And with that, Saul starts off toward the shoreline, bucket dangling merrily in hand.

She better follow him because he is not ruining the moment with a no seriously, come on.]

[quackery]

[What even just happened.

She follows, though, with a sigh.]

You're weird.

[5055034455]

Takes weird to know weird.

[He's mature, too. When he reaches the shoreline, he scoops up some of the wet, rough sand, and tests the consistency by letting it drip from his palm.

Isn't science gross?]

[quackery]

That doesn't even make sense.

[She watches it fall from his palm, curious.]

Is it any different?

[5055034455]

It's thicker, yeah. Less, uh —

[Shit. There's a science word for this. What is it?]

Viscous. No — wait. More? More viscous. Gloopy. Let's go with that.

[quackery]

[She bends, taking some of the sand into her hands as well.]

You're right! Do you think it'll still work like this?

[5055034455]

Guess we'll just have to find out.

[TIME TO EXPERIMENT. He offers the bucket to Ahiru.]

You wanna get me some sand?

[quackery]

[She pushes the bucket into the wet sand, shoving down until it's full, and then pulling the bucket back up to hand it to him.]

There.

[5055034455]

Thank you, Igor.

[Yeah no he's not going to stop with that nickname.

Ever.

Anyway, lawyers should probably not look quite as thoughtful as Saul looks right now, at least not when dealing with things that aren't law, but he is taking this so seriously.

BUT HE IS GOING TO GET THIS TO WORK, DAMN IT.

Except the first test fails — too much water.]

Crap.
