Ssafiracitlali eased her bulk into the eerily still waters of the Kandukta, experimenting with the sensation of water on different parts of her anatomy as she submerged herself. Toes spread in the squelching mud beneath the water, ignorant of leeches and snakes that both sought her blood and to escape her presence. She wore her human form, the vulnerable hide lacking scales and leather to protect her vital organs.
Surprisingly, yet not unexpectedly, Citlali did not actually fear what harm could befall her if she were caught out here like this. No, rather she considered her options should she be caught. She could swim, after all. She could become more if she had the time to do so. The fearlessness brought with it a unique sense of confidence that she loved. It made her better in so many ways...
It wouldn't help her to mull over confidence when she ought to be practicing the mobility of this form, actually.
The Dhani-woman shook her head and then recoiled at the contact of wet hair against her still dry skin. Quickly, she submerged herself completely and rose again, completely wet, and found herself to be much more at ease with the sensation.
She began to practice kicking out in the water, as if she were actually swimming, in the shallows of the Kandukta. Even if she appeared at ease, she certainly was not. Her mind was on the possibility of large lizards, Myrians, and other unpleasant creatures that could be found at a source of water.
