[ Just let him. Stand here a second, and get used to the weird flow of the tide as it washes in and out over his legs, causing his equilibrium to shift strangely. It's Sorey's offer that causes him to finally look back up inquisitively, tearing his focus from the seawater. ]

I remember the lagoons. [ Those did seem a lot calmer. ] You're okay with that?

[ It's not like swimming would benefit him in any amazing kind of way, which is more or less how it categorizes life skills...

But he also isn't one to back down from learning something new. ]

[ He’ll wait. Trust him -- he understands how strange it must feel, experiencing it for the first time. He’s not so well-acquainted with water that he can’t put himself in Mikazuki’s shoes. Er, footprints? Whatever. ]

Sure! Why wouldn’t I be? We’re friends, right? [ He shrugs. ] What’s a favor between friends?

[ He says this, but every time he’s offered to teach Mikleo to swim, he’s staunchly refused. Which, of course, the door is still open for Mikazuki to do that, too, should he have a change of heart. ]

[ Friends. Going quiet, Mikazuki's gaze returns to the water as he begins to venture out a little farther. Gaining his balance gives him new tenacity when he has a task to focus on, rather than some of the more normal customs associated with such things.

Like making friends. ]

Okay. [ Easy enough, if not somewhat slow. ] That sounds nice.
