Description Second commission for

Aarie was originally your typical scaredy-cat about water refused to swim or even get close to large bodies of water.

Thankfully she overcame this little difficulty over time, but her first time going scuba diving turned out to be quite embarrassing for her, because she had forgotten to remove her floaters! She then learned some laws of physics as she was subjected to two opposite forces pulling on her, mainly her gear's weight and the air in the floaters...

Making for one very surprised kitty.

Actually with her gear on, unless she had some really, really heavy weight belts she should be languishing at the surface in a really uncomfortable way until she took her arm-floats off.

I claim Artistic Immunity, on the grounds of making the scene for humorous purposes.

Somehow I doubt the instructor will be very impressed.

Very nicely done!

Well it was kind of an achievement to bring her in the water in the first place...

That's what happens when the artist's an aquaphile...

I'm guessing she didn't achieve neutral buoyancy?

The swimsuit's a cute touch.

Nope, she fumbled that quite nicely.

'tis supposed to be your typical school swimsuit design. I inspired myself from the ones in Cardcaptors.
