[Well, fine. Cutting the back of his hand, because really it's just painful doing the palm, and will hold his hand over the water and let blood drip into it.]
[ The blood stops flowing after a few drops, though the cut doesn't close up or anything.
The droplets seem to solidify as they fall into little gems. The koi eats them as soon as they hit the water, then turns and swims further into the pond.
Despite the fact that the pond looks quite shallow, the koi seems to swim down, and disappears. ]
[I can wrap it up. I don't think you realize how much shit I carry in my pockets and I have a lot of pockets in my jacket.]
[Pulling out first aid kit to get out a bandage for it, watching the koi. After that's done, he will touch the water again, just to see if anything happens.]

The water is water. The koi has gone deeper. ]
Re: The Japanese Tea Garden
[Into the water I go, gonna see if I can follow the koi.]
[It's not like I have a bad record with water or anything.]
