[Sup buckaroos, this strange looking blue creature pops into focus after fiddling with his shellphone (a pun that he absolutely appreciates, good job whoever invented these). Despite the fact that he's stuck here on this weirdo wet planet with all this damn water, he seems to be pretty cheerful!]

There we go, I think... I'm just gonna assume this is recording-- Aaaand, hi everybody! My name's Sonic, I'm new here, and I'm pretty eager to dig into whatever's going on here and help out however I can! If you need something done fast, I'm your guy. Pssst, this is how you make an introduction other hedgehog, take notes.

Anyway, nice to meet everyone! And I do mean everyone. I get around real quick and I have no chill, you can't avoid me forever! That'ssss about all I've got for now-- Oh! So, asking for a friend, does anyone happen to have any spare like, pool noodles or y'know, floaty things. That float in water? I-- that is, my real friend that I have that I'm asking for kinda swims like a boulder. And this planet is like, really wet? Sooooo.

Yeah! I'll catch you all later.

...In my defense, I was real busy back home. But yeah, that's pretty accurate.

[octoblot]

Well, now I suppose you have no excuse for not learning now, do you? Unless you're about to tell me that you're still somehow too busy to take the time for lessons here, and are going to stick to clinging onto pool toys for dear life instead.

[ssssiiigh. Gonna look kinda lame if he tries to argue his way out of this one, huh.]

I guess I got nothin' but free time on my hands now, huh. You don't happen to know someone I can ask about that, do you?

[octoblot]

Given how much time I spend in the water myself [in fact, you're talking to a mermaid as we speak...] I suppose I could be considered an expert, and therefore could try to teach you if you wanted to learn.

... However, I do expect to be compensated in some way for my time and effort in doing so.

[unfortunately, azul is a greedy mermaid who does not do anything for free]

[spinsandneedles]

That's only fair, I think! Just... I might have to hit you up for those lessons later. I don't really have anything to give you in exchange yet, heh.

[octoblot]

Don't worry, I understand. Just let me know when would be a good time to give you those lessons, or if you have any other concerns I might be able to help out with here.

[spinsandneedles]

Will do, bud! By the way, I don't think I caught your name?

[octoblot]

Oh, of course! My sincerest apologies for not introducing myself sooner: my name is Azul Ashengrotto. It's a pleasure to meet you.

[spinsandneedles]

Yeah, nice to meet you, too! I'll be sure to keep in touch about the swimming lessons.

[octoblot]

Wonderful! My door and inbox here is always open, so when you're ready for those lessons, you can message me anytime.

[... Provided that Sonic has proper compensation to pay or trade for said lessons, anyway.]

[spinsandneedles]

Will do! I'll catch you later!

[If he remembers that he needs to like, GET MONEY or whatever. Time to get a job, nerd]
