[robitussin]

Good to know. Glad you embrace it.

[She tilts her head.]

You don't think it's kind of cool, though? Breathing underwater?

[noprophecies]

They are good for tea and they help replenish my magic. Why would I not embrace it?

[she doesn't get it, but that's nothing new]

No? Should I?

[robitussin]

Because cat lady, or plant lady in your case, is kind of a negative stereotype, and I was being an asshole when I said it, basically.

[she says this with no shame smh]

Uh, yeah. I mean, it's kind of completely fascinating.

[noprophecies]

Ah. I think I understand now. [...] I do not think you are an asshole?

[opal is pure and good and sarcastic pls]

I can be completely fascinated from the safety of the ship, you know.

[robitussin]

Wait, really? You probably should. I own it proudly.

[citation needed]

You can, but that defeats the entire point of everything.

[noprophecies]

You are perhaps, at times, a brat, but that is not necessarily a bad thing.

[she is the citation, you don't need anything else]

Of what? Being bloody wet all the time? No thank you.

[robitussin]

Can't you just let me have this?

[tempest pls!!]

Oh, so you just don't like water. That's it, huh?

[noprophecies]

What am I letting you have, exactly?

[opal pls!!]

Yes? I have never been one for swimming or any of that.

[she is like a cat, the cat lady descriptor was more than apt]

[robitussin]

The satisfaction of knowing that I pass as an asshole?

[And then she chuckles.]

It's not going to hurt you, you know.

[noprophecies]

But you aren't an asshole. Why would you want to be one? I thought it was meant as an insult.

[you won't win this]

I know that.

[robitussin]

I have to maintain my street cred, duh.

[her nonexistent street cred lbr]

Then what's the problem?

[noprophecies]

I do not know what that means either.

[Opal please you're teaching her things she shouldn't know]

I thought I already made it clear. I don't like being underwater. I do not like water period.

[robitussin]

You know, my reputation!

[that is her mission in life]

Yeah, I just don't get why.

[noprophecies]

Ah. But why would you want such a reputation?

[you will never win this fight with her ok]

Do I need a reason other than that?

[robitussin]

It's a good reputation to have. Just trust me on this one.

[absolutely do not trust her]

Not liking water isn't the reason. The reason is whatever makes you not like water.

[noprophecies]

I could understand if you were from a world like mine, but you are not, yes? You are from one of these modern worlds. What good is such a reputation?

[you ain't getting out of it that easily.

She huffs]

I just don't? I have never liked it. I would end up sick whenever I went swimming as a girl.

[robitussin]

Because people are obnoxious and when they know you're a jerk they leave you alone. Surely you can appreciate this.

[let her live]

See, there's an actually good reason.

[noprophecies]

That is not quite how it works . . . as someone with a reputation to be left alone.

[live the right way pls]

Then there, that is the reason. I don't want end up sick.

[robitussin]

How would you say it works, then?

[she is!!]

Fair enough.

[noprophecies]

If you truly want people to leave you alone, you should give them a proper reason. One's attitude is not nearly enough.

[Tempest don't promote violence]

Mmm.

[robitussin]

It should be. [A small pause.] Also, are you implying what I think you're implying?

[noprophecies]

Of course I am.

[at least she's honest]
