Mister: falls of Nori and chitters angrily

Owen: bares rather impressive shark teeth at Nori NOT a mere mortal! I'm a Shark! And I'm an Etes!
Shai: sighs, takes off her glove and touches Owen on the shoulder before putting it back on Don't shift. There's no water.
Owen: yelps when SHai touches him Stop doing that! It hurts!
Shai: Good. I could see you starting to shift. Your eyes were going all wonky and sharky.
Owen: What's wrong with my eyes?
Shai: YOU of all people are asking that. In this form, they're normal eyes. But once you shift…
Owen: You're not helPING with that!
Luke: utterly confused Okay then.

(why thank you)

Nori: Relaxes once he realizes he can't scare him. Dammit. Picks up Mister and stokes his fur. Hey its okay, Its okay.

Mister: pouts for about three seconds then climes back onto his shoulder and gives him a head pat

Nori: chuckles. Easy there, ranger rick

Owen: rubbing his shoulder That's a raccoon! Hello!
Shai: sighs You have your water. Use it.
Owen: grins Wait, it's however much I need, right? pulls out a vial of water, drops some on his shoulder and empties out enough so there's now a pond in teh cult
Owen: peers down Should be at least 300 feet.
Luke: WHAT DID YOU JUST DO? HOW DID YOU DO THAT?
Owen: grins again Seafarer stuff.

Nori: staring in awe. Hooooly balls

Shai: That is NOT what it's supposed to be for.
Owen: But now there's water, so we won't have to make emergency trips to Veridin every couple of hours, and Tyr hasn't been in a while, so he needed it anyways.
Tyr: Oh yes, thanks for remembering about me.
Owen: indignant I didn't forget! They were threatening me with soup! And then that guy with the wings and I almost shifted, and my shoulder HURTS and now there's a very deep pit of water! A lot has happened since I got here! Hi, how are you?
Tyr: I'm busy watching your eyes to see how long until you get mad enough to shift.
Owen: Again with my eyes! They're nor-mal! as he speaks, his eyes spread a little farther away from each other and more of his shark teeth grow in
Luke: This is disturbing to watch.

(can you guess what kind of Shark Owen is?)

Freya: Very interested in all the seafarers. How do all of you breathe? Can you truly shape-shift into your aquatic ancestor? To Owen Are- are you a Shark? To Shai And you- you're an eel, obviously. Moray, or electric? I personally like the Morays more, but that's because of their pharyngeal jaw. That is to say, their second set of jaws in their throat behind the first. Although, electric eels are cool, especially the bigger ones. Have you ever tried powering a Tesla Coil with an electric eel? It can only be done with the big ones, but it is so cool.

(Is he a hammerhead, a lemon, a bull, a great white or a reef shark?)

Nori: jumps in the water pit thing. Dayum! Turn into a shark, my guy!

Owen: grins and jumps into the water, turning into a 15-foot-long hammerhead
Tyr: to Freya We're still kind of human. We have lungs and breathe through our noses or whatever… pushes hair back behind his head And we have gills behind our ears.
Shai: So basically, we look human, but we all have some of our animal aspects. I'm a green moray, hence the green hair, purple eyes, and pharyngeal jaw. Tyr looks nothing like what he is, but he's got the power thingies, which is a million times cooler. Ask him o show you. Owen's got mostly the instincts, but he also has the teeth.
Shai: And we can still talk in our animal forms, both in various Seafarer tongues and in whatever this is.It's just kinda hard.

Freya: Grins A hammerhead… interesting. To Tyr Of course, of course… To Shai It's Common, what we're speaking right now. A moray… I like morays.

(HAH! I knew it was one of those, and I said hammerhead!)

(why eys you did. you get the grand prie of breathable oxygen! yay!)

Shai: Thanks for liking morays! Please ecxplain to her points at Riley that we DON'T EAT THEM.
Tyr: to Shai I would be mad at you, but it's almost my birthday anyways.
Shai: I know. That's why I said it. So you could do it!
Tyr: closes his eyes and starts rapidly signing things with his fingers. A moment later, he starts to change, getting smaller and looking younger until he no longer looks 16 but 15
Owen: the shark equivalent of applause
Shai: goes to give Tyr a high five but stops just in time, puts on her glove and then gives hi said high five
Tyr: Thanks for remembering not to give me pain.

Freya: Walks over and looks Shai in the eyes. Moray mixed with electric? Interesting. Touch me, Shai. Without the glove.

(Yay! I'm highly flammable now!)

Shai: No, not electric. Just plain green moray. When I'm on land, I make a toxin that covers my skin, blah blah blah.., Touch me and it'll feel like you're burning, with the pain worsening the longer contact is held. Which is why I wear gloves.
Luke: But I'm ~special~
Shai: And for whatever reason, the universe decided to make Luke immune to my toxin.

Freya: Grins Touch me anyways.

Shai: I would ratehr keep it for when I need it… _{Like when I'm running from international ounty hunter people including Luke's nana}

Freya: Sighs Fine… but could I have a vial of it, eventually?

Shai: Sure.
Luek: Aww. It's fun to watch!
Shai: Not if YOU'RE doing it, and can't stop it, and would maybe rather NOT have poisonous skin? Or at least be able to keep it until it's needed, like an on/off switch?
Luke: You make no sense.

Mister: chitters and looks at Freya for food

Freya: Frowns at Luke She makes perfect sense, actually. Hands mister some anchovies

Mister: looks at the tiny fish sceptically then eats them all

Freya: Grins and rubs the top of the racoon's head. You're so fluffy.

Mister: chitters, climes her, and gives a head pat

Owen: pops out of the water and asks Freya Can I have a squid?
Tyr: attempting to start a conversation with Freya So, uh, what's your name?
Shai: walks into the water, takes off her gloves and stays as a human, slowly turning more and more eellike I would also like one!

freya: Gives Owen and Shai a squid each. My name is Freya. And you are Tyr, like the Norse god.

Nori: You have squid?? Can I fry it for everyone?? Turns to the newbies. Hey, Im Noriaki, but just call me Nori. And i'm part bird

Freya: Shrugs Sure. Let me get enough squid for everyone. Summons an effing kraken. Is this good?

Tyr: I am. You're Freya, also like the Norse goddess.
Tyr: to Shai What do I do now I'm not good at talking to people-
Owen: What do you expect? You literally don't have a brain. How you even function is beyond me.
Tyr: Nerves, mostly.
Luke: Side note, normally people don't turn younger when they're talking to each other. Just saying.
Tyr: I'm not even doing it now!
Luke: shrugs Just saying.

Freya: Grins Jellyfish?
