Ariel had finished her assignments for the day, and had enjoyed the fair for a while as well, but it was time to swim, it wasn't official swim-team time, since she had to swim for at least an hour every day to keep her scales from drying out and leaving her stuck with legs forever, and that would just be all sorts of awkward

Marian was passing by the pool on the way to the gym in the adjacent room, when she could have sworn she just saw a fin flick out of the water. She stopped and watched a little. "Was that?..." she mumbled to herself. She had head of mermaids before, but hadn't seen one.

Just then the girl attached to the tail bobbed up. Marian looked away in surprise. She started walking again towards the gym, hoping she hadn't offended the girl by staring.

"Oh!" Was the startled response, toppling back into the water in surprise, splashing for a moment before surfacing again with a laugh, "Hello there, I didn't think anyone else was here at this time of day."

She swept a hand over her hair to sluice the excess water out of it and lift it back from her face, "I'm Ariel, don't we have World History at the same time?"

"Oh, yeah!" After looking at Arial for a moment Marian realized she did recognize the girl from her history class. Except in history class she was sans-fin.

"I do know you, but I don't think we've been properly introduced. I'm Marian," she says taking a few steps towards the pool's edge. "Are you a freshman too?" She assumed the answer was going to be yes. Who except freshman and sophomores would take something as basic as World History?

She nodded at that, hoisting herself up easily to sit on the edge of the pool, fin still swishing through the water, "I am! I like it here, and it's nice to meet you Marian."

She swept a hand through her hair again, twisting it over her shoulder and wringing it out a little, giggling at the patter of droplets on her tail, "What other classes do you take? I'm trying to learn everything!"
