NATE
Unlike his companions, Nate wasn’t as keen on the exploration front, not really. As far as he was concerned, the bottom of one part of the ocean was the same as any other, and it hadn’t been all too exciting. But he’s out with his husband, with a good friend, and he’s dressed far more casually than a diplomatic trip necessarily demands in a pair of shorts and nothing else. He’s in heaven.
He doesn’t need a crystal to dive down, or the stolen whale tail (at least not yet) so it’s by the power of his own limbs that Nate keeps up, two sets of arms propelling him through the water, and gluing him to Sunjata’s side when they pause, despite the elbow. ”So we won’t be attacked on sight at least.” Nate jokes, utterly unconcerned about the possibility of angry mer.
The grin on his face doesn’t falter when he meets Aurelia’s gaze, if anything, it grows a touch, crinkling his eyes as he offers her an understanding nod.
We do? There’s no chance for anything else as he turns to furrow his brow at Sunjata, his silent question question written clearly on his face. Understanding clicks a half second beforeNate slapping his forehead with his palm. ”We do!” Turning back to Aurelia, Nate kicks his feet quickly in an excited beat, his smile brighter than any she would have seen grace his face before. ”We wanted to offer you a position in the Government. Arbiter, specifically. If you wanted it.”

Wonder if I held you
Could you see past all my weakness
Could you see past all my weakness
