"A-Are mermaids real where you come from?"
Cater shuffled along toward decontamination while they chatted, casually checking his nails, hair, etc. Cove’s sudden excitement about mermaids made him giggle a little.
“Oh totally. You don’t have merfolk where you’re from? When we get out of here I’ll have to introduce you to my schoolmates Azul, Jade and Floyd. Azul’s an octopus merman, but I’ve never actually seem his mer form for myself. And Jade and Floyd are eels! They’re… honestly pretty terrifying.“

They finally made their way through decontamination. The medical center reminded him a little of the labs back at school but only in the vibe. This place seemed… less magical.
"Sandel would've been interested in all of this."
Cater couldn’t help but pick up on the sad, quiet remark. He had been attempting to push thoughts of his friends back home out of his head, but things were starting to flood him. For the first time in a while, he missed his friends. He missed the dorm. He missed the routine and the normalcy. He was used to whipping out his phone to check on his friends on magicam when they weren’t with him physically, but he didn’t even have that.
Cater walked toward Fushi, pretending to be interesting in the supplies too.
“Who’s Sandel? A friend of yours?” Cater’s expression for the first time yet had turned surprisingly serious. He didn’t make eye contact either, just staring blankly at the supplies. “Sorry if I wasn’t supposed to hear. I’ve been told I’m quite nosy.”
