Hotaru
if we can't raise the dead
Scooting closer to her calves to sit up straighter, the Valkyrie's mild, welcoming expression drops away to something far sharper and more calculating as Hadama begins to put his magic on display. It is quite adept, but not yet fully mastered. Even so, it's clear that his experience with being in water day in and day out has led to a creative expansion that she normally has to teach her students to think around.
"Perfect, your volume is coming along quite well," she praises as the man's head becomes visible once more and capable of hearing her. "Now I'm going to apply a bit of pressure externally, okay? I want you to focus on keeping my magic from distorting or separating the water - like pushing back against someone shoving your shoulder." With two different ways of viewing it explained, Hotaru wastes no further time in much the same way Hadama had, utilizing her air magic to whip around the surface of the extended water, trying to find a weakness to exploit to blast through.
