sorry, one day he will bring him a lightning elixir too. but it's magic planet water, it's fine. it's beautiful and doesn't burn and won't leave his hair crispy. sidon grins wide as diluc faithfully works to document CREATURES... their COMPENDIUM. ]
You still work on it!
[ he's so delighted. enough so that he immediately dives, gills fluttering open. he moves with an unnatural quickness in water, or maybe it makes sense, given he's a fish. but it's quick enough that as he lunges at a bed of colorful, bright coral, a flurry of glittering fish are spooked out of their homes, swimming in a frenzy past diluc. ]
When the opportunity arises. I'll admit I've been a bit... distracted.
[ by dying. and by rats. (...should they? include the rats? in their compendium...?) ]
Enjoying yourself?
[ after surfacing he's just sort of bobbing around looking foolish in comparison, but even so it's fun to watch sidon FINALLY in his element. NO MORE PRESSING SHOWER BUTTONS EVERY 5 MINUTES FOR HYDRATION!!!
anyway he probably gets knocked around a bit by the currents sidon is creating, but he just huffs (laughs) lightly, literally going with the flow. ]
[ yeah he's had a lot going on. poor guy. it's not like the graveyard is a vacation, even if it does generally feel less stressful—there's still plenty to process. ]
I am!
[ he shakes some of the water off his head pointlessly as he breaches the surface again. the fish are still disturbed, which makes the water stir and shimmer. ]
It's not the same as home, but it's remarkable in its own way. I wish we could focus on moments like these—seeing new things! Meeting new people!
It hasn't been all bad. [ even as a cringe loner he's made so many friends here? incroidable ]
I'm enjoying exploring these planets, despite everything. [ the vore plot that is happening in the background. ] ...I didn't think we'd even have the opportunity to.
[ he puts his face below the surface again for a second to watch the fish swim around them. i forget it's hanahaki week but thankfully no BREATHING ISSUES while he is TRYING TO SWIM.
and yeah WHAT A CUTE INNOCENT TRIP THIS WOULD'VE BEEN WERE IT NOT FOR (GESTURES TO EVERYTHING) ]
It certainly lends a new perspective. [ which they've talked about before. ] Do you think there will be a way to keep in touch, afterwards?
[ pre-gaming endgame feels before endgame actually rolls around... ]

[ death works in such mysterious ways... ]
I daresay I might even miss it.

I will as well! Either way, our journey is approaching an end, isn't it?
[ and it's been a miserable one, but nothing is ever just pure misery or pure bliss. ]
Honestly, if not for the obvious problems, I'd think this a valuable experience. I've never been so aware of how... large the universe is!
[ they really could've just had fun delivering packages and learning about different cultures but instead it's alien parasites and murder. ]
