↠ ​Chandler continued to swim through the water, unfortunately for him he was quite slow due to his fairly large size and probably because he was quite poor at swimming, his movements being stiff and awkward. Keeping his head above the water, he looked around and searched for the figure, where did it go? Grunting in a rather annoyed manor, he turned to look back at the shore. The dark haired woman was gone! And now there was somebody else on the beach, this time a brunette. Were his eyes playing tricks on him? Confusion crossed his face as he turned in the water, beginning to approach the shallows once more in order to get back to his makeshift camp, muttering under his breath as he did so. Surely he was going mad? Chasing things and seeing people who change in the blink of an eye.
Once again, after dunking his head under the water and reemerging afterwards, the woman he thought he saw in the shade was gone. He was definitely losing his mind, Chandler decided as he waded back onto the beach and towards the tent he had previously set him, muttering and removing his shirt in order to wring it out then hang it over a low hanging tree branch to dry off.

↠ Anahita continued to swim alongside the ship, remaining underneath the water, though, her face occasionally breaking the surface as she stared up the side of the boat curiously. The loud clattering certainly caught the nereid off-guard, earning a surprised gasp and causing her steady swim to falter slightly. What if it was dangerous? Or a weapon? That wasn't good! Instantly, Anahita retreated deeper into the water, staring at the vessel from beneath the surface and then seeing a female face peering over the side down into the water, almost directly looking at the sea creature. Nervous, but still willing to make friends, the girl swam upwards once more, only enough to allow her eyes and nose to break the surface of the water, staring at the woman and then cocking her head to the side much like a bird or dog would.
"Hello!" She greeted, raising a hand to wave it slightly, the other remaining underwater, "You, um...dropped your book? In the water..?" Anahita continued, chuckling nervously.

AETHESA ~ 21 ~ SIREN ~ CHANDLER PIERCE; ATHLETA; KEONA

Aethesa hissed at the siren on the surface, insisting she come down to her shipwreck.
"He's a hunter! And not the delicate kind, either!" She ducked under the water, thinking about that siren's hair- it was.. beautiful, somehow. She wanted to know her name, but she wanted her out of danger first. She dragged her- almost forcefully, but as delicately as she could manage. She now had quite a collection of sirens, and, of course a few mermaids gathered around the island- and that means they're all in danger.

Lyle/selkie/19/tags: Katja, Anahita

The seal swam peacefully through the shallow waters around the island, searching for either something that would be an interesting addition to his collection or something tasty to eat. He stopped where he swam, though, upon hearing a great deal of splashing, immediately turning around and speeding away when he saw that it was a guy splashing in the water with a spear. Lyle himself had a spear-like weapon to defend himself but he could use it when he was like this. As concern for his home and the beings that lived around it grew, he didn’t realise how far out he had come and broke the surface of the water next to the shadow of a boat. Was this visitor aggressive too? Lyle looked up with a dog-like face, planning to duck under again once he caught a breath. He didn’t though, especially when he noticed a woman on board drop something- and upon stretching his neck, noticed that it was a sketch. The quiet splashing that came next surprised him, and looking over to where the excited human was now looking, he noticed the other sea-dweller. Before he could stop himself, the selkie gave a curious bark to both.

↠ "Mermaid?" Anahita repeated confusedly, pulling a face while she shook her head, chuckling softly as she did so. "I think the word you're looking for is Nereid, but sure, mermaid is close enough." She spoke with a cheerful tone before listening to the human once again, glad that they were friendly, "I'm called Anahita. What about you?" Once again, she was cocking her head to the side as she waited for an answer, but then she heard a bark - a bark that belonged to a Selkie. The Nereid was always a huge fan of anything cute, and according to her, the little seals were the absolute cutest! Searching for the source of the bark whens she turned, she noticed the seal nearby. "Oh my goodness! Hello there!" Her attention then flicked back to the human, "I think they're the cutest thing you can find out here! I mean, baby kelpies come close."

AETHESA ~ 21 ~ SIREN ~ KEONA

She gasped for breath after the effort of dragging the siren down. Or, she thought she was a siren. She had the teeth, of course, but mermaids can have teeth. She spoke softly, almost out of breath;
"He's a hunter." She sighed. "They come here only for money, they capture and kill our kind. He has weapons- he has a gun, and he felt the need to make twigs into spears. I was luring him away from the island- or, trying anyway, which is where all the splashing came from. Come into the "captain's quarters" - it's more comfortable in there, not as much flowing water gets in, so the chairs are alright." She led the siren into the smaller room at the end of the ship "Anyway, I forgot to ask, what's your name? I'm Aethesa, but you can call me Thea." She gestured at a small table. "This is my map."

Lyle/selkie/19/tags: Katja, Anahita

Lyle blinked rapidly, sniffing the air once he was sure that he wasn’t in any danger. Both the human and the nereid called him cute-that was a good sign, right? He wanted to think them, he supposed, but in his current state that was pretty much impossible; thus he settled for a louder, close-eyed bark. He was a little bit curious about the apparent not-mermaid’s difference from the specification of a normal mermaid, but decided that he could perhaps talk to her later. What he might not get the chance to do later would be observing the papers on the ground. He gave a great sniff and then ducked back under the water, taking only moments to shoot back up and flop onto the side of the boat that the riders would use to step into it.
