I do too. [He strokes the turtle's head affectionately, not seeming to mind how inadvertently rough she can be just from size alone.] ...No, she isn't. She... left, in October.

[spiderkid]

Oh. [Well that's awkward. Miles turns his attention to the turtle, instead.] So, girl, what do you think about the name Rio'era, huh?

[As usual, a wave of love and contentment blasts out of the newly named turtle. Miles smiles, satisfied.]

Guess she likes it too.

[relentlesstide]

[It is what it is, and he's glad to let the topic drop. Mera isn't something he'll talk much about to just anybody. Instead, he smiles down at the turtle and leans against her shell lightly, a hand on her neck.]

It seems she does.

[spiderkid]

You're really good with her, you know. I can see why she picked you. [Still not quite sure why she picked Miles, but things will work themselves out.]

[relentlesstide]

I understand sea life better than humans most days. [Fish are so much less complicated.] I imagine you'll be just as good with her.

[spiderkid]

Pshht. As if. [Miles has spider powers, not fish/turtle powers.] I still don't know why she decided she wanted me to take care of her.

[relentlesstide]

When she has enough of a vocabulary to answer, you can ask her.

[spiderkid]

Maybe. [He's still not used to the whole telepathic connection thing, and it would weird him out if it didn't make him feel so... content.]
