"...Could you do mer?"

"Yeah I think?"

"Neat. Um, could we go down now?"

"Why?"

"Cause I'm clinging to your back."

"Don't be a wimp Michael, we just got up here." 

She grabs him.

"There."

He giggles. "You weren't even that heavy."

"He is lean and swimming adapted."

"Yes, thank you for the factual description."

"I wonder if your siblings will get powers anything like yours."

He grimaces. "Don't think so."

"Why not? Me and my brothers have basically the same powers, well aside from Evan."

"That's because I took after my mum, though. But we were sort of sheltered."

"They're nothing like me."

"Yeah, personality has a lot to do with it. At least books say so. Should be interesting, though."

Shrug.

"Bet you a fish one of them gets phasing."

"...Why?"

He shrugs. "We're due someone who can walk through walls."

"There's Aether."

"It just popped into my head, alright? Okay, two fish on lava."

"My sister might get invisibility or something."

"Sneaky?"

"Shy."

"I hope we didn't scare her."
