DUNGEON LOG: KEYSTONE REEF
Expedition day dawns, as usual, with an android mass text -
Okay, so, this time we're aiming to go out and stabilize the Fissure in the reef you can see up a little to the north of here. The waters are usually pretty calm this time of year, so if you can swim instead of needing to take a boat, that'd be a great help. We only have a few of them.
Also, I know that last time was a mess, so I'm just gonna say this: If you need to get out for any reason, just send us a message and a picture of your location. We'll get a drone out to you as soon as we can and bring you home. No questions asked.
( ﾟ▽ﾟ)/ Stay safe out there! When you're ready to go, meet us down at the beach. The rocky, sparkly one, not the sandy one.
Unlike previous expeditions, this time there's no rooftop sendoff - instead, as Charm noted, the tables are set up on Glitterstone beach, along with a series of boats pulled up on the sand. Two rowboats that could maybe sit six people but probably better suited for four, a trio of inflatable rafts (with motors attached to the back, all mismatched) of about the same size, a two-person dinghy and a long canoe that could hold two or three.
Besides the little fleet, there's also the usual bagged lunches (in gallon ziplocs this time, and other such watertight containers), and every boat is equipped with a large number of those chepa dollar-store water bottles, all with their airtight store seals. There's also a selection of life vests and other floatation thingies in a box next to the table. Strange hovers over the setup, checking watertightness of a handful of first aid kits with a spritzer and a bucket to submerge things in. They give a little wave to anyone passing by headed to the boats.
For those who opt instead to swim, everything seems perfectly normal until you reach the border of the Fissure... When, very suddenly, it isn't.

Maybe you could give me some examples sometime.
[ Since, in the case of boyfriends, Minato only has to hang out with them for a little bit. ]
Anyway, how are you feeling? I'm no expert on the creature you got stuck as, but...
[ Buuuuut... he don't look so good? Even for being slug???? ]
i???? lost this tag????
Pretty sure he doesn't even need an audience. [Man Punning Alone With Salad??? Thy name is Shuji Ikutsuki.]
...'s just a cold. [No it isn't.] I'll be fine. [Not if he keeps this up.]
it happens!
You think so, huh...
[ So, he's just going to be closing some space to uh... touch Minato??? LET HIM CHECK FOR A FEVER... ]

[He brushes it off, but then Akira is touching him and that's all the proof he'll need - even being a merperson and submerged in the ocean can't cool him off. That's a high fever - almost dangerously high.]
no subject
[ He gives a soft sigh and glances around. ]
I could contact the androids to have them come pick you up... or...
[ With a soft sigh, he tilts his head a little. ]
At the very least, you should find somewhere to rest until we're done here.
