[ Of course Belth has a solidified theory...

But that's one of the reasons Eithan likes him. ]

Yeah? So then what's your theory, nerd? [ He bumps his shoulder against Belth's, grinning~ ... but he is actually curious. So! ] You said it was diet, so I just thought... you know, plants. But is there somethin' more to it?

[spellsteal]

[Belthazar returns that shoulder bump and beams up at him.]

Well--

[That's how you know it's going to be a long explanation. And in fact this does actually go on for like, fifteen seconds, but the most relevant bit is:]

-- and that's why I think it could be some kind of compound in the water here. The algae reflect this, and then the fish eat the algae, and then something else eats the fish but at that point it's probably so diluted that it has no effect when mixed in with a varied diet. But if we did manage to find some kind of giant lizard that only ate fish from this pond, then it would likely glow, too.

[ Yeah, that's cool, Eithan's just gonna spend those fifteen seconds just... listening and smiling.

At least this particular topic is one he can wrap his head around! But it wouldn't have mattered to him if it were all jibberish. There are just all these little things that happen whenever Belth starts going on about something he's interested in - the way his eyes light up, how he starts talking just a little bit faster... It's wonderful. And okay maybe Eithan's just the idiot in love with a passionate nerd! Whatever!! ]

Oh. So you can't just stop a few steps ahead of the fish on the food chain, you've gotta go all the way back! Got it. ... So d'you think if you found out what the compound is, you could just put it in whatever water you wanted? Like, make your own glowy lake that way?
