" sure there are!" ( ophelia nodded ) " why, ya thinkin of diving down and gettin some?"
" perhaps"

[Later in the day, Oktavia had finished up helping Ophelia and her family with chores, well as much as she could to her ability anyway. Washing dishes wasnt too difficult she found so far.
Afterwards, Ophelia took her and little Peach doewn to the shore.
The two teen girls sat together at small dock, watching Peach play among the tide pools nearby.
Oktavia sighed, this time more in contentment as she felt the waves lapping over her fins. Despite her sitatuion, she found she felt safe and comfortable and relaxed.
".. I have always enjoyed going to the seashore" She suddenly said "It was fairly often since the Blue kingdom was right near the sea. But, I have always felt at home, a connection to it..."
"Well of course. youre half fish after all!" Ophelia said, half joking.
The mermaid stuck out her lip in pout, but she shrugged "I suppose, it is true..." Using her fish tail she flicked water at Ophelia
"hey!"
Oktavia giggled then slid herself off the dock and into the water, feeling drawn to it.
