[Tidus is smiling pretty cheerfully when his SFC turns on.]

So, I've been thinking, and it's come to my attention that we live surrounded by water. Which brings me to a question for everyone:

How many of you can swim?

[He stretches his arms out in front of himself before letting them fall at his sides.]

I've also been thinking of what I'm going to do here, and I'm not sure what. But since I have a lot of spare time now, if anyone wants swimming lessons, I'd be happy to teach you.

Since it seems...kind of important and everything.

Hopefully it won't be too late, but it's practical to know.

What about you? Do you know how to swim?

[fulmination]

Hopefully.

It's been a few years since I've done anything of the sort, but yes.

Do you like swimming?

[fulmination]

To an extent, I suppose. I take it you enjoy it quite a bit?

video;

[blitz_acing]

Yeah, it's pretty fun.

[fulmination]

Have you been doing it for very long? I imagine that being around so much water would be a good thing for someone who enjoys it so much.

I've been swimming my whole life. I lived surrounded by the ocean, so I'm pretty used to it. I'm glad I ended up here, but I imagine it must be strange for other people.

It's certainly taking some getting used to... To be completely honest this is the first time I've actually seen the ocean let alone found myself in it. The closest ones I can recall from my world were at least a nation or two away.

How big is a nation?

[fulmination]

I believe that depends on what your definition of big is. Some places can appear big on a map but in person the population may be smaller than it seems.

You can't really tell much by a map. Just a little. You have to see it in person to know what it's really like. A place that might seem fun could actually suck.

Exactly. The scenery could be fine but if the population leaves much to be desired, what would be the point in returning? Especially if it's a foreign land that you know nothing about and the word of others is especially limited.

I don't know, if not much is known about it I think it would be worth looking into, if only to see it for myself. Why trust everything on the word of others?

[fulmination]

Some people rely on the word of those they know or trust for guidance but that's only human nature. It's easier to believe someone they know over learning something first hand. Tell me, what would you do if the place you went to turned out to be dangerous? I'm simply curious.

[blitz_acing]

Yeah, but it creates problems and a lot of people end up misinformed in the process. That's easy, I'd fight my way through!

A swimming instructor and a fighter, I see. You've fought before, I take it?

video;

[blitz_acing]

Yeah, I have some experience in fighting. [He cracks his knuckles.]
