✧·˚swimming lessons from isaac can be a bit chaotic
“you have to trust me if you’re going to actually do this.” isaac smirks as he stands waist deep in the pool water, holding an outstretched hand to you as you cling to the safety railing on the steps.
“i do trust you, i just don’t trust the water.” you squeeze your eyes shut as you take another step deeper into the water, still white knuckling the railing.
isaac can’t help but bite back a smile at your cautious form, you just looked too cute.
“i wouldn’t let anything happen to you while you’re in the water okay? please just take my hand.”
you hesitantly take his hand and he pulls you into him, your grip on the railing gone and now you grip isaac tightly due to the sudden shock of it.
“you hate me.”
he chuckles and gently removes your arms from his waist and holds your hands in front of him.
“i do not hate you. you ready to try swimming?”
“not really—”
“perfect! let’s see what we’re working with first.”
“no.”
“what do you mean no?”
“i am not embarrassing myself like that.” isaac sighs.
“i won’t be able to see if you need my help if you don’t show me.”
“okay okay fine i’m sorry i’m just nervous.” you dip your hands in the water to try and get use to the temperature.
“why are you nervous? it’s just me here.” isaac looks around the empty room to emphasize his point and then back at you.
“that’s the problem, i just get really nervous cause you’re so handsome.” you smirk and watch as a blush creeps it’s way across isaac’s face.
“just start swimming.”
you sigh as you start swimming very ungracefully in the water and isaac has to hold back a chuckle.
“i could drown and you’re laughing!”
“you are not going to drown, i am right here.” he swims over to be closer to you and you back up on instinct.
“you know, you’re pretty cute when you flail around in the water.”
“i feel stupid.” you say as you paddle your way to the shallow end.
isaac lets out a laugh as he reaches out to take your hand and easily pull you to him. the action makes you smile at how fun it is to be pull across the water so easily.
“where’d that smile come from? you like being pulled through the water or something?”
your face goes flush at the realization of the fact that you’ve made it very obvious that you enjoyed getting pulled around, unfortunately for you isaac immediately picks up on it.
“aw baby, you want me to pull you around in the water?”
you can’t help but feel embarrassed for some reason, feeling a bit childish you cover your face in an attempt to hide your embarrassment.
“hey hey no hiding i think it’s cute, here.”
isaac quickly gets out of the pool and returns just as fast with two pairs of goggles in hand and holds one out for you to take, which you do with a confused looked.
“what are theses for?” you look at the goggles then isaac, who already has them on and you can’t help but crack a smile at how he looks a bit silly. “are we gonna play mermaids? cause i don’t think i’m experienced enough for that yet.”
“what? no.” isaac takes the goggles from your hands and gently puts them on for you. your smile only grows bigger at the thought of you looking just as silly as him.
“alright now hop on.” he turns his back to you so you can wrap your arms around his neck which you do hesitantly. “ready?”
“for what?”
before you know it isaac goes under the water and you instinctively close your protected eyes as he swims to the deeper end of the pool with you clinging to him. it’s not till he taps your thigh gently that you open your eyes and realize how cool it looks under the water.
when you reach the surface isaac makes sure to keep you secure to his back since you’ve never been this deep before, but to his surprise you push off him gently to go under the water again. isaac of course follows watching how you enjoy yourself in the water.
you imagine this is what flying feels like, it’s so healing you can’t believe you haven’t done this before.
this is dumb i am so sorry, it’s hard to describe swimming for the first time since i’ve swam my whole life. i apologize and will try better next time.
.love always <3 pearl

Chatting with Toothpaste Dragon, we talked about these characters meeting and I got so inspired and excited (I adore oc interactions so much, especially cute ones) I ended up doing a sequence of it! Until we started talking I didn’t realize that there’s several similarities that Sorrel and Isaac have with each other compared to Donald and Cricket, so that’s pretty cool too! :-)
For reference Toothpaste Dragon owns the incredibly sweet little human rat hybrid Cricket, and KBtheBearcat owns the also very sweet freckled human Donald <3
Isaac and Cricket are more apprehensive at the beginning and often gauge Sorrel and Donald’s interactions with one another (who are watching their kids, as you can see), fortunately it’s short lived and they start feeling comfortable enough to engage themselves.
In the bottom image she suggested the ones where Isaac is sharing his baked goods, Cricket trying on his hat (I imagine it a fairly flexible/stretchy cap if you’re wondering why it looks kinda small!) and looking for herbs- the last one I came up with as an extra! Isaac is canonically ticklish, she’s found his weakness and going for the kill!!2 I didn’t add words but he’s trying SO hard not to giggle and he’s doing pretty good but still failing : ) her whiskers, nose and little fingers are weapons of mass destruction!!5

as fun as it is to blame dracula or chaos for stupid design choices in the castle, what if it was LISA who got a knack for like. floating platforms. psychedelic corridors. the clock tower, even. "It's enrichment for the servants and me, wheee" she says, double jumping over a spike pit /joke
I'm always up to imagine Lisa as a weirdo and a freak lol. Girl didn't marry Dracula himself because he was pretty :P
Imagine if she had the idea of creating Medusa Heads because she found them cute. She so gave suggestions to Hector and Isaac in their work, prove me wrong.
