Newt nodded, and would have been blushing had he been able to. Instead, he crouched down, hopping frog-style past the kimodo down the path, pausing between leaps to wait for her, "I... j-just g-got new swuh-swim sh-shorts and... I'm r-rather excited to... to.. t-try them out," He laughed weakly. "I h-hope I d-dont'... n-nearly drown this time, though- M-muh-miss Awen w-won't be here to k-keep me afloat."

Joliette lumbered after him somewhat slow and deliberate steps as she moved "Awen used to be afraid of the water, until she came here and began to change at least, she's a very nice person, a good friend to have" Her tongue flickered and she nodded

"I d-dont' know... I th-think I muh-might have b-bothered her... sh-she l-luh-left in a b-bit of a hurry," The frog-man fretted, crouching low beside the path to wait up for the slower lizard befor hopping ahead again meekly.

Joliette just nods, it didn't seem like Awen to just run off, but then she'd not seen Awen in a long while, hard to say just how much she may have changed. "I don't know, I can't speak for her..."

Newt didn't answer, continuing to hop his way towards the water, eager to soak his amphibious skin.

Not entirely sure what to say beyond that Joliette didn't speak again between there and the lake... Once at the lake she shed the Gi top, she didn't care anymore, her changes had made her figure so much a Komodo that there was nothing to really hide anymore. Wearing only the tattered skirt and moved into the water "least the water is warm" she says and looks back at Newt

Newt fidgeted, watching the woman go, but was too timid to strip down just yet. He waited untill she was distracted befor finally unbuttoning his jumper to strip down to his new swimtrunks that bore a repeated pattern of little green frogs on little yellow lillypads all over the blue fabric. Anxiously, he hopped into the wateruntill he was up to his elbows, content to crouch nearby. "It... it is n-nice and wuh-warm..."

Joliette nods and looks out into the lake and then closes her eyes letting Komodo instincts guide her and she submerged herself fully and moved a few feet then surfaced her head "Sooo... you've been on the isle working here a long time then?" she wasn't sure if he had meant here or on teh mainland when he spoke of his job

"Ah... j-just... a f-few months... here in the vuh-village b-but... ah... about... f-five years up at the luh-labs," The frog man replied, eyeing a dragonfly warily.

"Thats a long time to work for... him" She doubted she could ever work for the red haired git "How did you wind up in the village?"

"I... I... w-well..." Newt swallowed, dipping lower into the water untill just his nostrils and large round eyes showed above the water, lifting only high enough for him to speak, "I... I m-muh-made a f-few mis-mis-mistakes... over the yuh-years I sup-suppose... I... ah..." He dipped down, so the rest of his words were a bit muddled- at least muddled more than his stutter generally rendered his speech, "I'mabbuhbuhbitclumsy."

"That can be a bad thing when working for the git." She looked around moving her arms around her lazily "I think I'm really going to consider your idea, I've heard it once before, I think it's looking more worth persuing then ever"

Newt blinked, still wrapped up in his own self conciousness and memories of failure, "M-muh... my... my wuh-what?"

Joliette laughed a little "Your idea to write about hte isle, for all of us" Her tongue flickered skipping over the surface of hte lake's water. "After all theres stuff that a lot of us haven't known about"

Newt was too wrapped up in the concept of his own failure, his large eyes beginning to water as he shook his head, "Y-you... y-you sh-shouldn't b-be insulting him l-like that. Th-that m-man... ththat man's a guh... A g-g-g-guh... He's a... a... Guh-genious!" He finally suddenly shouted defensively.
