She had an immense curiosity about life
So she was right! Look at her, being a fantastic detective and already figuring out everything about this man. There was a satisfied smile on her face as she beamed about her success. Then- he made an unusual offer. Shaking her head. Delta almost backed up, but instead her shoulders stiffened. It's fine... it's fine. "I cannot beach myself, so I doubt it would be safe to do such a thing.... but thank you for the offer." She threw in the last part to be kind and respectful, but really she was just cautious. Her father warned against beaching herself and surely, this would be even worse. A death sentence.
Not quite mimicking, but following in Saiden's motions, Delta lifted her hand out of the water and placed it on the side of the boat. Once her hand was laid down flat, she slowly bent a couple of her fingers before returning them back to normal. "You know... I normally don't get to even touch boats. Or well, boats that are like this. I can touch sunk ones, yeah, but they aren't like this." They aren't freshly polished or well taken care of. They aren't yet hurt by the harsh effects of water and constant undertows forcing it to break and shatter.
Looking back up at Saiden, she spoke up once more. "What do you do? Are you a fisherman?"
