Me neither. [He scans a few more. Hm.] How long do you think they've been dead?

[littlecousin]

On Earth? I'd say less than a day. Nothing dead stays intact on the bottom without magic. They'd all be eaten by now.

Here? Who knows?

[She shrugs.]

[imaginate]

[Well, there's only so much you can do with "ew creepy" here, he supposes.] Let's keep swimming, then?

[littlecousin]

Yeah. Not sure what else we'll find, though. The bottom of the ocean is usually barren, unless there's a seamount or a thermal vent or a trench.

[Anything--most things would be better than bodies. Nita falls in beside Kyle.]

[imaginate]

Funny. We should be seeing more of those.

[littlecousin]

Depends. There are huge chunks of the seafloor with nothing like that. Most of the ocean is about as interesting, scenery-wise, as the North Pole. About as hospitable, too.

[She's used to surface dwellers not knowing much about the ocean but coral reefs and days at the beach.]

[imaginate]

It's a little weird that there's nothing for miles: at home we've got a few underwater cities at least.

[littlecousin]

Think how far it is between towns in Kansas or, I don't know, Siberia. Now imagine an area three times as big. That's the ocean. We can't settle all of it, and we wouldn't want to. I mean, this [she gestures around them] is basically Siberia. My people don't like to live in the cold and the dark any more than surface dwellers do.

[imaginate]

[Hm good point.] Maybe if Aquaman shows up you two can compare notes about that.

[littlecousin]

["Aquaman." Who names you people.

...thinks the Sub-Mariner.]

Is he from your Atlantis?

[Surprisingly, no one has mentioned Aquaman to her. At all.]

[imaginate]

King of it, yeah.
