He merely nodded at her, kissing her softly again. He wanted to stay where they were rather than risk her safety by heading out. He knew she wouldn't stay behind, so it was probably safer to keep her at his side.

Nodding, he led her out into the water, pausing once to check back on her to make sure her rebreather was working. Once he was sure, he let go of her hand as he made a motion for her to stay. Then he put some space between them, still watching her when his eyes went gold and that same glow spread over him until his form changed, growing and lengthening until there was a large reef shark in front of her.

He shuddered in his new form before swimming around in front of her, pulling up alongside and waiting for her to climb on. Naturally.
