Diamond in the rough (open)

don't you know there's a part of me

That comment alone made her eyes widen. A person who could shift into a lion? It was honestly exactly what she was looking for! "I'll look into it! Thank you Jigano, for the information." She was absolutely going to figure out exactly who could turn into a lion. It hadn't occurred to her that she could just find an attuned with such an ability! That'd be something she had to do on a later date.

Waving a hand, she shook away such an idea. "An illusion wouldn't do it justice. I want to be able to I guess feel the mane? And feel the fur... I know that sounds super weird, but I don't know. It's not something we have underwater." It was probably odd to the snake, but absolutely okay in her mind. Hopefully he wouldn't judge her too much.

It was a small bit worrying to see the snake suddenly dive his head under water, but Delta knew that if he was in trouble, he'd send a mental message to her. Diving down herself, she started to look for a shell. There were a couple of shells, of course, but those had animals living in them. It didn't take long for her to find a broken off shell, most likely one that had been eaten by an animal. I found one! She sent to the snake before appearing back above the water. Swimming on over to where the snake was, she held out the shell. "Do you think this should work?"

that longs to go into the unknown
