[Ah-- Having attention drawn to the flush on his face makes Clotted Cream sputter, and he makes a great effort to clear his throat to cover it.]

You're... But how? Did you visit Mana?

[With Sparkling now close, Clotted Cream reaches out to take his boyfriend's hands, inspecting them in awe. Just like his, with webbing between his fingers and claws at the tips. Sparkling chose to be like this. This isn't an event.

He feels giddy.]

You look wonderful.

That I did. I thought I might change this time on my terms.

[He lets Clotted Cream take his hands, keeping them loose so he can inspect them. Sparkling's scales are utterly vibrant gold and white, save for a few splotches of pure black, such as on his face and neck. If Clotted Cream thinks about it for more than a moment, he will realize these are his scars, manifested in a different way.]

I do hope you'll show me the ropes. I fear I don't remember much of my time as a Mer before...
