Harry flinched when Chal pulled themselves out from the water, their eyes slowly trailing over her body in curiosity and a surprise.
They were about to speak before Chal spoke again, turning their head back to Chal with a small smile. "[i]I've[/i] never met an Aquapon." They said with a soft smile.

The mention of the scientist group being their clan caused their ears to droop down slightly.
"I... Uh." Harry started, trying to think of the words to say, "I wouldn't exactly say they're... My [i]clan[/i]." They continued, a twinge of sadness in their voice, "They're my workmates, yes. But I haven't seen my... Blood Clan for, years." They cleared their throat slightly and shook their head. "We're looking into the life in the area."
Harry paused before they seemed to startled themselves, "Of course, In a positive way. We're trying to see if there's any pollution here and any new species that we don't know about."
