A fairy turned into a fish! The lake is now SUPPOSED to be her sanctuary!

Who: Selene, Zelda, and whoever wants to see Selene fail at swimming and being a Zora! Thus, OPEN LOG!
What: Selene got turned into a Zora and Zelda took her to a lake to stay at for now to recooperate/breath water. She's trying to swim and adapt to this. Needless to say, she's not very good at it.
Where: The lake!
When: Saturday, October 3rd
Warnings: It all depends on who sees her.

http://crescentpanels.livejournal.com/1660.html?thread=19324#t19324 Pretty much continuing from this thread. There can be one thread per character seeing her (and Zelda, if Whit wishes to have Zelda there at the time), but I think no one would mind threadhopping if you ask first to see if it's fine.

*Selene says, "No, I am not~ The water actually feels quite lovely," but depending on how distorted the sound is from below the water's surface, it still might not be that legible. So as she says that, she shakes her head 'no'.*

Oh in that case, I think I will, like, totally join you! Let me just switch to my water plate...

[Bob takes out a bag with what looks like about a dozen or so bracelets and takes out a blueish one, slapping it on her arm. Instantly, her eyes and outfit change colors. She then turns into her Pokémon form, and starts walking on the water as if it is the most natural thing in the world]

[Beep beep you all have a collect call telepathic message from Bob, do you accept this?]

Do you need help with swimming lessons?

*Selene accepts this ~~although she is VERY VERY weirded out by Bob walking on water like some kind of Jesus-ly creature~~.

She pretty much says yes, although garbled, and nods in return. She demonstrated by trying to swim upward, but before she could even paddled more than a few times, she sunk to the lakebed.*

[Oh. Oh well fine, Bob, you show-off. Zelda is just going to continue inching her way into the lake oh GEEZ it's cold.]

[Anshu sniffed and sunk further into her crouch, watching the others try doing swimming. Judging by the temperature of the water and the air, she wasn't ready to go jumping in. For that matter, she wasn't going to take off the blanket that was wrapped around her.]

First things first.

[Bob lifts Selene out of the water, so she is floating to the top]

You'll need to move your feet much faster. However, it has been centuries since I last saw Zoras. I think Zelda would be better suited at this task than me

[Hi Zelda I am looking at you now]

Would you like me to make the water of the lake a little bit hotter?

Can you do that? [Zelda is about waist-deep now and it looks like she is kind of freezing.] I don't want to cause harm to anything in the lake.

Don't worry. This will only be a small portion around you.

[~~And then Arceus peed into the lake~~ The water around Zelda starts to get warm. It is a bit like a shield, going around her, like wearing a frog suit.]

[O-oh. Oh that's actually pretty nice. Now she can fully get in the water and freestyle her way over to Selene. She reaches under for the girl's hands and pulls her up to the surface in order to better give instruction.]

You really don't know how to swim?

*Oh hey there, her head is above water so she can talk now. Awesome.*

I do not. I have never learned how to swim before, for I do not like the water at all. I suppose now is a better time to learn~

I think you'll find it will come to you much more naturally in your current state.

[She starts treading water, encouraging Selene to mirror her movements.]

Now, you can leave the water, but only for short periods of time, all right? And seeing as how you've been without it for more than a day, you should probably stay here for at least a little while. Will you need me to bring you anything in the meantime?

*She slowly follows Zelda, nearly sinking for a few moments, but she managed to stay afloat due to holding on to her friend.*

Ah, I do hope it will come to me a little more naturally~ I find swimming to be very difficult for me, usually.

Oh, no, no, you will not need to bring me anything~ Although... oho, perhaps I will have to eat. *Well durrrr.*

[At this point Zelda is debating the best way to explain swimming to someone who cannot swim.]

Here, watch me. It's...like how frogs swim, if you've ever seen that?

[And she pushes of into a sort of breaststroke.]

Ah, I have seen that~ My friend back at home has frog-like creatures in her water island in the sky. They are very adorable, much like the Payapaya I have at my home, and...

*Oh, yeah, swimming. Woops, she forgot. ~~Stupid rambling.~~ She attempted to do just as Zelda did. Normally, in her regular form, she'd quickly sink or just fail at it, but in this form, she seemed to do better than that. She nearly sank a couple of times, but managed to keep herself afloat.

Something still felt off, though. Blech, this wouldn't be enough to make her want to swim when she changed back to normal.*

Am I doing alright?

[Wow, Selene, you officially win the prize for most awkward Zora ever. Zelda paddles back to you and takes your hand.]

You'll catch on soon enough. Here.

[Now they can swim *~*together*~*.]

Oh~! *She clenches her hand onto Zelda's, now being able to swim a little better now that she had something to hold on to. It'd keep her from sinking.* My, thank you~ Do you swim often?

[Swimming looks hard. Anshu hopes she will never have to do it, and she pulls her blanket tighter around her body.]
