Only at that point was Alex visibly aware of her presence.
"My apologies," he said. "I did not realize you would object to being covered in sand. It seemed you were in the process of decomposing."
He briefly glanced up at her. His eyes were hidden behind what appeared to be a pair of prescription sunglasses.
"I see now that you are intent on still moving, however little."
He set his shovel down, and began to reach down into the hole.

"Its fine im just... pissed right now"she says [i]she gazes back towards the sea. She doesn't look for long as she looks back at him with side. [/i]
-
"I guessed as much based on your scowl. I would say you ought to smile more, but I have learned that such comments are often considered inappropriate." From the hole, Alex pulled what appeared to be an arthropod. It snapped at him with tiny pincers as he held its carapace between his thumb and index finger. He placed it in a bag, then sealed it. "I don't suppose that starring out at the crashing waves has done anything to address the cause of your anger?"

"Older sisters were telling me it isn't wise to seek out my grandmother. but i want too meet her even if it means leaving for a time to journey there. They forbaded me to go."she says

Edited by BenjyX55: 6/30/2017 4:02:16 AM"I must confess, I never had any siblings, and all of my grandparents died on Earth, though I do have ample experience being forbidden. However, regardless of your problem, I will say that, to my knowledge, simply being angry never resolved an issue. Neither, however, did trying to calm down. You must address the root of the issue if you wish to affect the outcome." He grabbed the shovel and began refilling the hole. "As to being forbidden, well..."
-
"Yeah well they don't wanna talk and i did come out here to chill out"she says
-
"Then don't talk. Just go."

"Oh i will but dont try follow this is a place where humans can't dwell. My grandmother is a mer like i am"she says [i]she starts stepping into the water which was easy cause she didn't on shoes and she was wearing shorts. She had waded in up to her waist a then suddenly submerged herself completely into the water. From where he was standing on the shore he catches a brief glimpse of a dark blue tail fin that had a tiny glowing scales dotting it. as the girl surfaces again she is no longer standing and looks like she had sprouted gills. [/i]

"Fascinating. To undergo such a significant metamorphosis in such a short time span... I've never seen anything like it. Would you mind if I took a sample for study? Some blood, a bit of skin, even a few hairs will do."
-
"Well to be fair not many have seen me in form very often. But i guess there's no harm in that i guess."she says [i]she swims a little more into the shallows. Her whole body is visible when is she in the shallows.[/i]

Alex plucks the hairs from her head so quickly that by the time she feels anything, he is already sealing them inside a plastic bag. "I can run a few tests on these. Not nearly as useful as a more comprehensive examination, but then, I don't believe that I can get all the information I want while remaining within the confines of the Hippocratic oath. Not that I'm officially licenced, mind you." As he continued to ramble on, it became more and more apparent that he was speaking mostly to himself. He stopped abruptly and looked back at the girl in the water. "Best of luck with your search. Perhaps one day I will explore this world's oceans, but for the time being I think it is best if I return home."
-
"Before you go here"she says [i]she had reach down and plucked out one her many glowing scales and hands it to him. The scale was still glowing after being removed. And it was the size of a half dollar.[/i] "Oh just so you know im actually only half mer my other is dragon. But i will return if i dont find her"she says
-
Alex pockets the scale and walks away. [spoiler]Closed[/spoiler]
