Initially Leanne is confident with the other woman's decisions, even if she's gripping onto the side of the boat with such vigor that she may end up tearing a piece out of sheer anxiety. Eyes concentrating on the water and what she can visibly see, peering into the depths and ultimately flinching back in surprise when there's moments of light.
And then it stills.
Everything within those seconds becomes quiet, far too quiet, to the point that it makes her entire body physically ache. ]
Alisaie! [ She shouts again, yet this time panic courses through her and Leanne finds herself leaping--doing something foolish--into the water. She can't fuckin' swim but her boo needs her!?!?! HELLO!?!?!? ]
[ SHE WON'T... She can at least doggy paddle... barely...
So when she sees Alisaie resurface there's a look of both relief and frustration. Don't make her panic so much that she ends up doing stupid things?? ]
No, I was trying to go after you. [ She holds onto her with one arm. ] But then I remembered that I still haven't learned how to swim.
You can't blame me, I saw blood and I didn't know if it was coming from you or that monster! [ She climbs into the boat, thanks to Alisaie's efforts, releasing an exhausted sigh as she leans against the wood. ] I'm gonna have to learn some day, y'know...
[ Preferably not in serpent infested waters but yeah. ]
Well yes, but were I to be tragically killed in battle, I would prefer you to stay alive, at the very least.
[ with both hands now grasping at the edge of the boat, alisaie hauls herself up right on after, dropping heavily into the bottom of the boat and taking a moment to catch her breath. ]
For your future knowledge, I am able to breathe underwater, so you need not worry about me. You, however - yes, that is something we must remedy.

That's something you'd prefer, yes, but whether or not that happens is ultimately my decision.
[ Are they arguing after killing a serpent... maybe. ]
