You're the 8th wonder

Secretly, Jiro is thankful that Nami reexplains what she means. It makes more sense, enough that his tail gives a few hopeful wags. So if he's quick and graceful enough, he could pounce into the water and snatch one right up! And before he could ask, Nami was already offering to demonstrate. Was she reading his mind?!

Carefully, Jiro watches with wide eyes, nose practically submerged into the water as Nami dives beneath. Seconds later, she reemerges with a small fish between her jaws that flies effortlessly onto the sand behind them. "Whooooa, s'cool," the pup murmurs, his tail waving excitedly behind him, eager to try now.

Looking up at Nami, he gives his head an excited nod. "Yeah! They took us out to the creeks and ponds in the forest to learn before letting us out here," he looks out to the bay now, lifting a paw to point at the shifting waters. "Otōsan says that this water has a tide and it moves in and out every few hours so we gotta be careful for dangerous currents," Jiro looks back to Nami, waiting to see if his answer was right. He does listen well, but the class clown in him enjoys portraying that he doesn't.

"Can I try catching one?" He asks, smile growing as he tries not to prance around and disturb the water too much.
