She held Olivia by the arm softy and briefly: a show of sincerity. [color=6ecff6]"I can't just let you do this by yourself, right?"[/color] Kanna smiled at her, a thin curve opposed to her usual toothy grin.

[color=6ecff6]"Alright. I'll make sure they get these"[/color] Kanna was all too happy to reduce the load; all she could think of for the moment was how painful it must be to have to keep announcing that your friend just died. This way, Olivia wouldn't have to do it so much. She took the flyers and folded it in with her all-encompassing notebook. It was cyan, with a little sticker of a fish near the bottom right side.

It was then that Olivia asked the question. [color=6ecff6]"Yeah. We just moved here, too, actually."[/color] She had the lines rehearsed to a T. Maybe a story for another day. [color=6ecff6]"--but we don't plan on leaving anytime soon. So.. yeah."[/color] Not that they needed to anymore; Kanna and her mother decided to just stay somewhere, and Innsmouth was basically, and conveniently seaside.

[color=6ecff6]"Fish.. lady?"[/color] Now, she was piqued, eyebrows raised. The only fish lady she knew of was she and her mother-- but that description didn't seem to fit either of them. At all. [color=6ecff6]"I'll watch out for her then.."[/color] Were there more of her kind around Innsmouth? Ever since their exile, news on any gossip* of mermaids had been nothing but shreds.

[color=6ecff6]('kidnapping', sure.. but eating.)[/color] She used 'kidnap' loosely, as it was not unheard of for men to follow mermaids to the ocean in search for their golden voices. When pushed to survival, any creature would consider eating flesh. 

She looked down briefly upon hearing about Gwyn Thatcher. Kanna could scramble for some good reason to be on his side, but came out blank.

[color=6ecff6]"I'll.. see you around then?"[/color] With that, she offers hug a goodbye.

Once the last bell had rung, Kanna immediately goes to the field. She didn't need to wear a jacket in spite of the possible cold; the ocean offered much chillier temperature, most of which she would know for herself.

Kanna went inside the locker rooms to greet the other girls. She didn't want to have to wait until their practice started, as she had to go to her own swimming training, too. 

Her spiel was pretty simple. [color=6ecff6]"Hey."[/color] She smiled curtly at the women. By now, they should already know about Suzie, so an introduction wouldn't be necessary. She tried to make eye contact with every person there as she spoke. [color=6ecff6]"The funeral for Suzie is tomorrow, and Mr. and Mrs. Moore would like you all to attend."[/color] Now, she handed each one of them the invite, whispering a few kind words to those who seemed like they needed it.

[color=6ecff6]"It would mean a lot to them if you could go.."[/color]
