But when it does, he turns, slumping his weight onto both elbows now so he can face the stranger. He blinks open mismatched eyes, bleary, and focuses on him. ]
[His tail twitches as he fidgets with his hands, looking away from Todoroki and at the ocean. It takes him a few moments to respond- like he's debating if he should just go right back into the ocean or continue talking.
He looks back at Todoroki, what pretty eyes- he's never seen anything like them on anybody else. It's not his first time rescuing a sailor, but it is his first time hanging around.]
Um... You fell off of your boat. During the storm.
