(open) i wanna sink to the bottom with you

Date & Time: January 21st and onward
Location: The Hold's indoor swimming pool
Characters: Collette, Gamora, & ( this space left intentionally blank )
Summary: Gamora is getting swimming lessons from the brave denizens of Exsilium, by which I mean the Transports, by which I mean people are swimming with a five year old and a morphed bottlenose dolphin. Or people are in the area and staring and asking what's up. Booyah!
Warnings: No one will probably actually drown in this log. We think.

( Collette sat on the edge of the pool, smiling over at Gamora. They were at the shallow end, one far corner with the steps coming out. )

We'll wait for them right here for now. You can stand on the top three steps, or sit on the top one if you want! I'm going to get changed into my dolphin self.

( She winks before lowering herself into the water with minimal splash, reaching for her stopwatch. )

It'll only take a minute, and I promise no matter how weird this looks, I'm entirely okay the whole time.

( She says before depressing the lever and starting her count down, giving her thirty seconds of time no one but she noticed passing. When time starts rolling for the rest of the world again, Collette's halfway through morph and completely submerged. It's hard to make out what's going on, but less than thirty seconds later, a bulbous head and a long, almost smiling nose breaches the water's surface. )

Everything!

[But he's smart enough to realize that's not a good answer so after a moment of deep thought.]

How can you change into so many? And can you change all the time?

Doesn't it get confusing if you're a horse and a coyote? 'cause a coyote is a hunter and a horse isn't.

Wow! I can't change for less than all night! 'cause it would hurt me bad if I changed too soon.

How do you do it? Control everything all the time? It sounds hard, 'cause they're so different and both together...

[He makes an 'I don't know gesture' and shrugs, trying to understand how she can have conflicting instincts all the time.]
