"That's, not a... good thing..." she manages, hastily securing her bow to her belt lest it be drawn overboard. That's all she has time for as the water hits, and she can't even try to stay on the boat. Instead, catapulted off the side, she flails around wildly before landing on the water almost flat on her back with a colossal splash, and begins thrashing around like someone who hadn't quite learned all the more involved pieces of swimming. After all, mostly the only liquid she was ever submerged it didn't have enough room to move anywhere. Managing to stay on the surface, Alizome takes a deep breath as she grabs her swords- the mermaids couldn't fail to notice her dramatic entrance into the water, and the first one to come up around her was going to get a sharp surprise from the elf. All she had to do was stall any hungry fish until the others took care of their own foes, after all!<br/><br/>((Just staying on the surface and drawing shortswords!))
