Day 115

FROM: bellic.niko@cdc.org

So, I noticed that some of you are not too good at swimming. But some of us are really good. It's a little cool out, but I think it might be a good time to make sure people at least know how to keep their head up.

FROM: bellic.niko@cdc.org

I am guessing that I am not the only one that would be willing to show people how, and I am sort of wanting to take a swim anyway. Would anyone want to either learn or show?

[He's in a bad headspace now, and wants to keep busy.]

OOC: I realize big plots are coming up so I figure assuming or partial threading is probably going to be the case here. Also I had a car trunk lid slammed on my head a couple of days ago so I'm keeping up but my replies are generally slow. /hooray headache

The best way to teach someone to swim is to just throw them into the water.

It really doesn't work that well. :[

A third of the crew was dropped into the ocean and expected to swim a very long way. If there had not been an ice bridge, there would have been more drownings.

FROM: bellic.niko@cdc.org

And if you have been on a ship and you were the only one able to get away from the pull of it sinking? You are the only one to live? You develop a greater appreciation than throwing them in the water.

Swimming.................

FROM: eraclea.dio@cdc.org

Is that 'useful'? Done a lot?

FROM: bellic.niko@cdc.org

We were first dropped into an ocean here. It's not that it's done often, it's that if you end up with a mile of water under you and a mile of water to land and big giant purple people eaters, it is best to know what to do.

I can swim! I swim all of the time! I LOVE swimming. And just being in the water in general, really.

[Yeah, okay, thanks, Maya. Nobody could have guessed that for themselves, right?]

FROM: ayling.maya@cdc.org

I'm up for helping other people learn how! It's a really, really important thing to know, since large bodies of water can pose such a hazard. Lessons were mandatory in the schools where I grew up, cuz it was a coastal community. Besides, swimming is super fun.

FROM: bellic.niko@cdc.org

I am glad you understand. Putting someone in a pool or nice lake is much different than a place with rough currents.

Knowing how to avoid drowning is definitely something worth learning.

FROM: kirihara.misaki@cdc.org
If you need anyone else to assist, I'm available.

FROM: bellic.niko@cdc.org

That is what I am thinking. Is a pretty good idea. I will probably mention something back at the rover.

[Because he feels kind of silly when he can just walk over and talk to her. He isn't quite one of those people that will IM someone while he's super close to them yet.]
