Test Dive 4B
[When the communications cut out, Frisk is far enough out that they can't see the more familiar reefs and creatures and most of what they can see looks the same--it's mostly kelp. Treading water with fluttering movements that betray signs of a child who isn't used to spending quite this much time in the ocean, Frisk reaches for the nearest kelp stalk and clings on to it in the hopes it will support their weight and allow them to rest, at least for a little while.
It really is getting dark, though. They can't see the bottom of the kelp forest anymore. But surely someone else must be out here, right? Slowly, Frisk weaves through the kelp, leapfrogging from one stalk to the next. It doesn't occur to them to call out telepathically; hopefully they don't run into anyone who's easily startled.]
