[kon can find harrow sometime on monday exploring the new island. specifically, she's in the aquarium room, and it sounds like she may be in there with someone else. she's looking into the tank of fish, one hand on the glass, talking as though it's to someone else in the room, but no one is there.
when he comes into the room, she blinks, startled.]
Oh - good afternoon. [even then she sounds a little oddly hesitant.]
today's weird. kon is just going to preface every interaction he has with that thought, because he's really not sure what everyone is going to have or not have at any given moment. he lets yoru wander off to go press his face against the glass of a tank, raising a hand to greet harrow. ]
Hey, Harrow. Checking out the fish? [ who are you talking to ] Heard there's some wild ones in here.
he comes closer, squinting into the tank she was talking to(?) and standing silently as he assesses for what he's looking for. ]
There - see that glow? [ spotted - he points ] Follow that until you can see the needle teeth and empty eyes. That's a female angler fish. They have a bioluminescent lure to draw in prey in the dark.
It can be, in things like fish and insects. [ pause, considering ] And algae. But in Hell I wouldn't be surprised if creatures that weren't supposed to glow did.
[ straightforward information. ]
If it's eight and has a kind of bulbous head? An octopus. The ocean is weirdly keen on giving stuff a lot of limbs, actually.

They are rather interesting, aren’t they? What do you mean by wild, precisely?
no subject
Deep sea things that look like they definitely live where the sun don't shine, mostly. Ever seen an angler fish?
no subject
No. I have only seen the sea once, but I do not believe anything lives in that sea. Which one is the angler fish?

Thank you. You are quite knowledgeable about many topics. It is to your credit.
[mostly she's just relieved to know what's supposed to be in there.]
no subject
So, glad to share. [ especially here ] This place is fucked up, so I'm going to take advantage of the stuff I do know to offset the stuff I don't.
What kind of sea was it, that you'd seen before?
no subject
[she frowns, still looking at the tank.]
I thought I saw something else in there. But I wasn't certain of it.
