I don't think I'm ever gonna feel "normal". There's always something going on in my head, isn't there?

[Between the forest making him hallucinate and the fact that the El has his brain in a chokehold and also everything going on in this place in general...

Scrub, scrub.]

It's okay. You don't have to feel bad. I really do like the gifts, but you don't have to feel like you're making anything up to me. They can be gifts just because we're friends.

[ Mizuki continues to slump until he’s just underneath the water entirely. Pointedly, he continues to look at the ceiling and not at the very indecent Elsword.

When he speaks again, though, there’s something different. The most noticeable is that it sounds like there’s no source — like his voice is suddenly all around instead of coming from him. It’s echoey, and less speaking and more melodic than his normal voice. It’d be quite charming if there wasn’t something vaguely off putting about it. Something… ominous? Or perhaps, just a little unsettling? ]

If you’re sure… I just… I keep messing things up.

["Ominous" "unsettling" these are not words Elsword uses to describe shit that's cool as hell, thanks, and instead of answering the very blatant insecurities, he leans forward and probably manspreads extremely badly and tries to see if he can see Mizuki through all the steam and rippling water.]

How are you doing that thing with your voice?

[If he presses his ear against the water (why is he like this) can he hear it Louder]

[mooninthewater]

[ Mizuki continues to stare at the ceiling, especially when Elsword leans forward. But, at least instead of being self-pitying, he's amused by Elsword's interest. He can hear Elsword fine - not great, just fine - since his hearing is made to be sensitive so he can listen underwater like this. ]

It's an Aegir thing. We used to live in the water, so of course we needed a way to speak to one another. It's not exactly something I can explain "how," though, just the "why" it is.

[simplicitas]

It's really cool. If I talk underwater, I sound like I'm drowning.

[Wild thought: That might be because he's not Aegirian. Insane.]

[mooninthewater]

It might be because you are drowning.

[ He reaches just his arms out of the water and sets them on Elsword's cheeks... and then squishes them together. ]

There, you can sound different now, too~.

[simplicitas]

[The Elsword... is squoshed.]

Reawwy? [:0] I 'unno whuddasay.

[What do you say when you're suddenly put on the spot to say something but in a funny, cheeks-squished way?]

[mooninthewater]

Hard “k” sounds, “b” sounds and “uh” sounds are usually the go to. Try “chunky peanut butter.”

[simplicitas]

[...]

Csshunky beanuuhh budder?

[He'd laugh if his emotions were working right now, but at least Mizuki gets a (squorshed) smile out of him.]

[mooninthewater]

[ Mizuki laughs enough for the both of them. It's a shame he can't kiss Elsword again, when he's being this cute. He pokes his head out of the water, returning to the usual voice as he does. ]

I think it suits you~. Ehehe.
