Nat peeks through one of the jars and sighs.
--
"Right."

"But who? It's up to you."

Byron will be back!
---
"But you promised me."

He thinks a moment then says, "Jed."

He waits!
--
".. Okay, okay." He turns around and trudges to the pool.
--
"Jed? Okay. I'll tell him."

Byron returns! He attaches this new jar into the door. "There. That should allow it to hear."
---
"You learn to float today, then we can go over there." She grins and follows.
---
"Thank you."

"And if he picks one, you'll let him go?"
--
"Fiiiiiiiiiine. And if I start drowning, you'll save me?"
--
She nods and walks off to find Jed!

"Yes."
---
"You won't drown. We're not even going to the deep end." She starts walking down the steps into the pool.

'Promise?"

He gives the water a suspicious look and slowly follows.

He walks over to talk into the jar. "Come on, Horace. He'll let you out if you pick a bird. Then we'll go for a nice walk." He taps on the glass.
--
He creeps towards her.

Byron frowns and watches.

"Ruuss. Don't be afraid. If something happens you can just stand up."

"Stop being so stubborn." Tap tap.
The energy ignores him for a bit, then loops down towards one of the birds.
--
"I'm not afraid." Hmph.

Byron peers inside and watches some more!
---
"Yes, you are." She reaches to poke him. "Lie down on the water."

The unlucky bird falls forward, twitches for a bit, then slowly stands back up. It staggers around, shaking its head and flapping its wings stupidly.
"It's about time. How long were you planning on floating around?"
--
"Lie down on it ?"

Byron slowly looks around the rest of the room.
---
"Yes. Relaax and imagine yourself light." She holds her arms out. "I'll help!"

After a few minutes, the bird settles down and wanders over to inspect the jars.
Nat looks over. "Can he come out now?"
--
"Hooow?"
