So in non-radiation-leaking news…[There’s a slight pause and then the splashing of water like Percy’s still in the ocean.] Staying away from the Kharaa sounded like a great idea and I might have found something else.

The place where the water flows below. I think I found it. [And for anyone who wasn’t part of the Grand Reef exploration:] When we went to explore the Grand Reef some of the fish kept mentioning something that attacked the Degasi crew and that one of them might’ve sunk to the water that flows below. Problem is I don’t know if that means one of the crew members or one of whatever attacked them.

Anyway, I’m going back. I didn’t get far enough to really explore down there but there’s a bunch of caves and waterfalls that need to be checked out. [A beat.] Annnd some other stuff.

[That’s not ominous at all.] The tunnels should be big enough to get a submarine down there if anybody wants to come with me. [And suddenly he seems a little more commanding.] I don’t know what we’re going to find down there but if you think you can hold your own, let me know. I want to go back soon.

[Bolin is scared, honestly. His previous explorations yielded some mixed results that have had him in a funk for a few days now, but he needs to get out of it one way or another.

Exploration seems like a good way to go about it.]

I can hold my own.

[Hey buddy.]

Since we have caves to check out, having an earthbender on our side isn't a bad call. [There's a grin in his voice.] You okay with being in a sub to head down?

[bolin_rocks]

[Hey buddy guy.]

I haven't been in one yet, but if they're anything like the machines back home I won't have any problems. Isn't the pressure dangerous at deep levels?

[expulsions]

Not if we're in a sub. The caves themselves seemed to be okay. [Or maybe that's just for Percy. We'll find out!!] Getting down below initially is going to change the pressure a lot but once we get there we can explore and go at our own pace.

[bolin_rocks]

I should mention that I don't know how well my bending will work through metal walls of a sub. I mean, there's no risk of me bending the sub, but... Yeah. I'm still willing to come along.

[expulsions]

[Did not even think of that...] The sub's sturdy. We won't have to worry about it crumpling or anything, but do your powers sometimes get out of control? [Mostly he's curious why that's something to bring up.]

[bolin_rocks]

Pfff. No. Never. I've just never tried to bend things through a metal wall before.

[expulsions]

Let's not start now, okay? [But he's keeping his tone light anyway.] It'll be fine. I'll let you know when we're getting ready to leave?
