So, there is a lake, right? Only it's somewhere which isn't Mama's home under the sea, and it isn't Pappos's home, it's somewhere a bit cooler and a bit north (so says Atlas, but what does he know, but at some point it turns into a nice, warm sea and Medusa really doesn't understand how that works.

The only way to investigate is to, well, investigate, so the tiny Gorgon is flying over the join of fresh water and salt, trying to see how it works

"It is if I say it is," she announces, pushing herself up and trying to rub the dirt from her face.

There's another long, considering pause.

"I don't think it is." Kindly. "Maybe you're just very confused."

[mycursedface]

She puts her hands on her hips and tilts her chin up imperiously. (This possibly might work if she didn't have to blow a curl out of her mouth)

"Not about words."

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"Oh. Okay." Frown. "I get confused about words a lot. So you're probably right."

He's going to have to find a Basic dictionary and look up 'humph' now. Curse you, incomplete education in Galactic Basic, curse you!

[mycursedface]

"Of course I am."

"You don't need to get huffy about it."

[mycursedface]

"I'm not huffy. I'm me."

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Blink.
"Yeah. You're huffy."

[mycursedface]

:O!

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Jaq just looks innocent.

[mycursedface]

"I am not!"

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"You are too."

[mycursedface]

"I am not! Queens cannot be huffy!."

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"They obviously can." Jaq replies, pointing at her.

[mycursedface]

She glares at him, her wings shifting angrily.

"Cannot!."

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"But you're getting huffy right now." Jaq points out.

[mycursedface]

"No, I'm getting grumpy."

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"Same thing."

[mycursedface]

He gets a Glare.

And an unsheathing of tiny claws.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"What? It's true."

[mycursedface]

That gets a pause.

"No, it's not."

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"Is."

[mycursedface]

"But...it's...not."

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Jaq considers this.
"Is." He repeats, helpfully.

[mycursedface]

Slowly,

"Are you...lying?"
