Summary: Tavros introducing his moirail, Sollux, to his new friend Jane. Also swimming.

So you know what's really amazing?

Making friends!

You know what's even more amazing?

Introducing friends to friends and all being friends together! That's pretty darn fantastic and Tavros is very excited for it because that's what's going to happen today! Tavros has to talk to Sollux about it first though, which he's a little worried about. Sollux is a rather paranoid person in general and it can be a little tough getting him to talk to people. But he certainly did assist Sollux in getting more social with the others back home! Even if that was just... typing and video games, but hey, it's a step. Now he'll try to introduce Sollux to someone new and face to face, a nice big step! And they'll even be around water when it happens so he will hopefully be a bit more calm.

With that in mind, Tavros leaves his apartment and heads to Sollux's, knocking on the front door and pulling on a wide smile and keeping a positive attitude.

Comments

No, he won't stop it. He likes being quiet.

But he's in the water now, lightly paddling over to where Jane and Tavros are floating. He understands being weighed down by wet clothes, which does happen on occasion. He can't even imagine wearing a cape like Tavros does and trying to remain floating, but Tavros is a bit stronger than he looks. "Warm-blooded?" Does she mean... like 'of low-color blood'? They tend to be warmer than seadwellers.

"Oh, that makes sense... I guess we uh, as sea dwellers are used to it? Plus our clothing dries pretty fast!" Nod. Wait, pause.

"There are no seadwelling humans?" And yes, he's rather strong! You'd be surprised what that much swimming in a cape and tux can do! Also he is just as confused about that warm blooded comment and gives Jane and odd look of his own.

"Yes, you know, humans are mammals...?" And now she's staring blankly, too. Confusion circus all over the place! "But no, we don't have any seadwelling humans." She looks from Tavros to Sollux. "I mean, we're not really built for it."

"Well, landdwellers aren't meant to swim either," Sollux replies, slightly confused as to why there aren't seadweller humans, but whatever. Aliens are weird.

"Oh uh, mammals... r-right."

"Well landwalkers aren't built for it eith- yeah... Are there other kinds of humans at all?"
