Neuna comes closer to the water, and Moira takes a step back with her hooved forelegs, moving deeper into the water to allow the other girl more room to wade in. Her curious eyes flick over the other girl’s pale skin, curious what color the other girl’s scales will be. White and pink like her hide, or something bolder?
When nothing happens, Moira frowns, then realizes that she’s once more forgotten herself. Or rather, Neuna.That neuna is not a nereid. Flustered, the grullo shakes her head, and it is her turn to feel the heat of embarrassment in her cheeks.
“Can you, um, go underneath the water? That’s where the corals are.” She gestures in their direction, a patch of sea that from above looks no different from the rest of the waters around Ischia.
“I’m learning to make air beneath the water?” She offers, but it does not sound hopefully, as is followed by: “I’m not very good at it yet though, and that wouldn’t be good if you can’t swim.” Moira feels very small now, having offered something only to take it away.
Will Neuna be upset, she wonders? She hesitates to look up, and when she does it is from beneath lowered golden lashes.
