SWITCHBOARD

If you're deciding to actually use that phone in your room, go right ahead; the Wordsmith is a busy man but he's often around, and he has no real reason not to talk to you, assuming that you do it correctly.

Right! Um...

[ A breath. Composure. ]

I... was wondering if there's any way we could get a water tank of some kind. Big enough to swim around in a little? Even if it's just in my room. I mean any bigger would be great but there's the whole space issue?

[ It's not like they can just magically get more rooms, after all! ]

If that's... even something I can ask for.

[wordsmithery]

That isn't exactly simple, I am sure you realize.

[iamthatsea]

I know. I just don't have anywhere to even submerge myself properly, so I wanted to ask in case you could. But no works as an answer too, don't worry.

[wordsmithery]

I'll see if anything can be done about it. But you may not want to hold your breath, as the saying goes.

[iamthatsea]

Hee. Well, I have two sets of lungs, I can hold my breath for a while if I need to! But thank you. It's more than most kidnappers would do. Or... I assume it is, I haven't been kidnapped before.

[ Neutral, she has to stay neutral. It's what the Elders would want, at least so long as there's no actual murder here. ]

Another question, a little easier. I know it's not on the rules one way or the other, but is it alright if I modify my uniform a little? It's covering up the gills on my sides and it's... weird.

[wordsmithery]

You're free to modify your uniforms however you please. I have no reason to stop you.

[iamthatsea]

Awesome! So I'll make the uniform work for me and... hope on the tank thing. Oh, or a pool! I know Sportacus said he'd also like one of those, and that probably makes more sense for everyone. I think swimming would make everyone happier.

[ IN THE PLACE THE THREAD GOT TO JUST NOW I'M SO SORRY ]

However that would work. I know it's a big ask, but... I think it would be worth it if you kidnapped a pool for us!

[ THAT'S HOW THAT WORKS RIGHT??? ]
