Yeah...

[He sighs.] I don't want to lose more than my wings if I go swimming in the dark again. And if I go down to THAT lake, I want to bring someone with, which means I have to move fast when I'm at the bottom again.

[It's pretty upsetting.]

[It actually kinda is. Sawatari's eyes rove over the new ones that have somehow taken its place-eerie metal replacements that he's not sure quite make up for them.]

So other than the goggles, do you have any plans for dealing with those sawfish things? Just in case you can't evade them, still...

The sawfish can only move down, [he explains.] ...I didn't see them before-so I didn't know until they were right there. But now that I know they're there, and I can see them, I can avoid them.

I could even ride one down, I think.

Oh, since they have to climb and then dive down on you...

[He blanches at the idea of riding one down, though.]

Y...you really think you wanna try that...?

Once you're at the bottom, they don't come after you any more...so if we push off from them at the lowest area they go, they won't come after us until we try to swim up again.

It'll make it a lot easier, that way!

Huh, and then if we can outswim their climbing speed, then we should be safe! Nice thinking, Reira!

[...why are you two both suddenly saying "we," what are you two doing]

Yeah!

[........] ...So you'll come?

Huh...?

[Blink, stare.]

Could I really? I mean, I can't breathe underwater or anything...

How do you think Vriska came with?

...Well, I actually don't know what kinda monster she is, I've only talked with her on the network...I assumed she was some kinda mermaid or something. I mean, she kept making all these fish and sea jokes!

[Fair enough.]

Vriska's a demon! [They're pretty sure she is, at least.] But even then, she didn't really have changes at all before.

But the 4th gave me a way to bring friends underwater, even if it was only for a little while.

So we have four hours.

[That's not a little while!!]

What, a demon? That's totally not what I expected outta her...

[A creature of fire and malice, huh?]

Four hours...that seems like a lotta time!

[Huh, interesting!]

But if you can do it, I'm in!

Yeah. She seems okay with it, [he explains, swinging his feet a little off the branch.]

It seems like it, but we have to be able to swim to the bottom and swim back up too...

[Which is still okay if you're coming. He beams.] Good!

We're going to make sure we're ready for everything.

Hah, awright! With me on your side, you won't have to worry about a thing!

[...Yeah. Let's make sure you guys are prepared for everything.]

But hey, what else do you have in mind for that place, anyway?

Yeah!! [Woah, Reira agreeing? What is this nonsense?]

Ummm... [Shoot he didn't think this bit through.] ...I'll be able to see, but...I think I need a way to take notes under the water too. Some way to get pictures, or make sure that what I see down there, I don't forget...

[Woah, what? Good(?) thing Sawatari's not questioning it.]

You think waterproof cameras exist yet?

Tsukikage had enough problems finding normal cameras... [So that's a big fat Nope.]

Really? Damn...

[Sawatari pouts.]

I guess none of us monsters have any...I dunno, memory powers or something? It'd be nice if one of us could magically record it or something, if we don't have any technology...

Yeah... ...I don't think anyone has that kind of magic either. If they did, I don't know about it.

Tsukikage's memory doesn't count, and he wouldn't like the water anyway.

Oh right, because of the spider thing...mmm...and even if we could take those laptop things underwater to try and use for pictures, I'm sure not trusting those for a while...

Yeah. He can't see properly underwater...

[Hahhhh. And quite abruptly, he shakes his head.] You can't do that either!! They'll break!

Yeah, that's why I said "even if we could!" I know the laptops won't make it under the water!

[it's not like he'd want to take one of those ancient block things that made him mess up his hands and invaded his mind ragglefraggglemgglagnsdgnsagndsf]

Oh! [He missed that part.] ...That's good then.

...If I could bring them, I would...because then the Fourth could join in, and see what I could see.

What, you want him to know about this kinda stuff? What would a god benefit from learning about some ruins at the bottom of a lake?

[He's not feeling too charitable towards any gods right now, buddy.]

...I want him to see because he's my friend... [Reira sounds honestly hurt-and he flinches at the grumbling as well, cringing against his bucket.]

...He doesn't have a body, so he can't go to other places like I can... ...I wanted him to be able to see some of them...
