Iolite & Amethyst

[You're in a spacious room with a few large mirrors along the walls. Things might seem a little different...and that sure is a whole lot of animals around you! If you look down...around... You'll notice that you, too, are an animal! gosh.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[The door swings open, and you can see the next room. The door to it is open, leading to a room with a flickering fire and a pile of thick, fluffy towels just waiting for you. But! Between the two doors, there is a bottomless pool of water. It's too wide to go around it, and too deep to wade in, so it looks like you're going to have to swim it! No matter how many legs you have.

There is a coin machine on the wall before the pool, at a manageable animal height. It reads "FREE PASS". The coins you were given should fit there, if you couldn't do the task.]

[RUNNING DOWN THE HALL AND JUMPING INTO THE WATER WITH A LAUGH]

[flies across :3(\]

[eyeing this water thing with deep suspicion]

[paddling around in the water]

Haha do you want to try or use a coin, Paleon?

[lowering his head and looking slightly surly]

Of course I'm trying.

[dropping in with a splash and paddling away...wait, this is actually working pretty well, huh!]

[chuckles and swims around him before heading to the other side of the pool]

[maybe rolling his eyes at him slightly with an amused snort]

[clambering out of the water again and SHAKING OFF ALL THE WATERS!!!!!!!]

[also u-turning to you]

What's wrong? The water's fine~

[well Spit goaded him in and he seems to be doing okay, actually, because yes, pigs are secret swimmers]

This...is working better than I expected, actually.

Good work! I don't know how else we'd have gotten you across without using a coin.

Sheer force of will.

Who knows~ Maybe we'll get a chance to test that theory in the next room.

Please be careful.

[splashing in after a glare at Spit]

[paddling a bit frantically...no, this is actually working pretty well]

Huh. This body is better at this than it looks.

That's good.

[i guess that just leaves me :|a]

[circling back to bob near him]

You going to be okay? The other dogs seem to be managing. [yeah what does he know about dog vs. fox vs. wolf]

Yes, I'm fine.

[obediently tumbling in when the knight tells him to :|b]

[pacing around the edge and almost sort of hesitantly climbing in before backing off to pace more]

[well, while I'm checking on Paleon...paddling in your direction]

What's up?

...Ah, nothing...

[sticking a paw out and edging close to the water again :x]

Just jump in! I can't swim nearly this well when I'm human, must be something about being a dog keeping me afloat.

Okay...

[tumbling in with zero poise or grace ker-splash]
