Scott was a bit confused by Jimmy's question. They'd walked past it a ton of times and Jimmy had never asked this question. "A pool of water? And a fountain." Jimmy looked oddly fixated on it. "Can- Can we- I take a look at it?" "Uh... sure." Scott had never understood the fuss about the fountain. Or the pool. It was just a lot of water to say the least. Even if it was supposed to give knowledge and have 'healing properties' Scott in general wasn't all that interested in it. Jimmy was but... well... this was Jimmy. Jimmy was Jimmy pretty much. Goofy, kind of p@thetic and all round, adorable. So Scott decided to entertain Jimmy in this aspect and let Jimmy do what he wanted. "So, this is a uh- pool of water. In the ground. As you can see it has well... water. And that's a fountain which um- Also has water in it. It's just a lot of water." Scott in all honesty did not know how to make it sound interesting. Like... at all. Jimmy still seemed very interested (Why? Scott had no idea). He walked towards the pool, examining it. Scott then remembered the edge of the pool was slippery and just as xey were about to yell that, Jimmy slipped let out a loud cry and fell in. Scott proceeded to have the first freak out he'd ever had in his life. Xeirboyfriendhadjustfalleninthepoolandxeydidn'tevenknowifJimmycouldswim. Jimmy resurfaced. Well, Scott thought it was Jimmy. He now had some fish scales as well as a tail. Xey knew that Lizzie was part mer but her scales were blue. Must run in the family, Scott assumed. Xey held out xeir hand to help Jimmy out of the pool. Jimmy's tail (Well he still had legs so... maybe it was a tail) flicked the water as xey did splashing xem. Scott laughed as it did. When Jimmy got out of the pool the fish traits started disappear, leaving Jimmy looking normal just a bit wet. "Well... That was something-" "I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier, it's just-" "You thought it would be like what happened with Joel and Lizzie?" He nodded, looking down at his shoes. "Jim- You're my boyfriend, And yes. I still l0ve you. Fish stuff and all." Jimmy smiled "Promise?" "Promise." And Jimmy took his hand.
