Ginko rarely swam back home - only when he really had to, honestly. Maybe he'd have an easier time getting used to it with hooves if he had done it more before... though he had enough trouble with walking and climbing, maybe not.

He'd be more reluctant to try in this deep of water if it weren't for his "souvenir" from Atlantis, the deep gills carved along his ribs on each side. When he finds himself tired out from trying to kick back to the surface, he ends up just letting himself sink to the bottom.

He lets out a frustrated huff through his gills, kicking at the silt under his hooves. He hasn't even noticed Foster yet, distracted by his own problems.
