"I like swimming. Ocean swimming. Rhys assures me that we can account for water and sand and such, but seawater is hard on most every material."
"Oh, probably. But goggles aren't perfect. They leak, pop off... Rhys says we can make them hold up, but I don't want to rely on technology I don't understand and can't fix, eh?"
"Mm," Tess hums. That would be a problem. "If you can't fix it yourself, then it just becomes a liability. Not a lot of people with complex prosthetics in my world."
"Yeah! That's why I'm learning from Rhys. I'll get on top of it, and if I don't, I won't accept the prosthetic. Kind of strange how a machine is more reliable than a regular old eye, huh? Although," Hange taps next to her one remaining eye, beside her nose, "My eyes have always been shit. Heh heh."
"Yeah," Tess says, and she doesn't know a damn thing about how real it is, but it is, at least, a thing. Even if it isn't, it's funny. "Start now, might pay off in your forties and onward!"

“Good luck to whoever ends up being your guinea pig for fine tuning.”
