Check-in! (Check fin?)
Okay. Uh. Wow. I did not expect to be Investigating as a mermaid. Selkie. Finvestigating. You know.
I also did not expect to get all kinds of shiny mermaid knowledge dumped in my head the moment I ended up in the water, but that seems to have happened anyway. So if anyone wants to know anything about that shit, please do ask me. The most important thing is that the Thalassian Mermaid Queen, the Dread Empress or whatever, is as scary as fuck and our cover story should probably be that we ran away from her empire because we didn’t want to become cannibal berserkers. Which are a thing. Oh my god.
Anyway, it looks like we’re in the world with the Labyrinthine Shoals? Like, that’s evidently where we are. We’re in the Shoals. And I guess we’re mermaids? Some of us? Can anyone chime in to tell me if there’s anyone around who’s not a mermaid.
Actually, maybe we should make this a general check-in with, like, name and species. I’ll go first: this is Thorne and it looks like I’m a California sea lion selkie.

[Thorne will catch the little baby fish.] Hiya, Rosie. You're really cute like this. I like your tail color! You've got good taste.
[Thorne's own pink is gone from her hair. Not surprising if she's supposed to blend in.]

You should see my husband. You've seen his shirts-- his tail looks like one of his shirts.

[The compliment amuses Zoe, though Rose doesn't seem to have taken it to heart. She just wriggles free and circles around Thorne hair.]
Color's different?
[Apparently she's noticed the lack of pink in it.]
