Bullets can be fired underwater if they’re subsonic rounds. Supersonic rounds just fragment when they leave the barrel. And even subsonic rounds tend to hit turbulence much quicker in denser fluid.
I meant more the arm movement than the fingers. The fingers would open, but the arm would probably be drawn inwards towards the chest rather than flung out.
Bow fishing works quite well into the water (only a few feet admittedly, but at least as deep as bullets). And a spear gun is functionally a high powered crossbow, and is good up to 5 meters or so against large targets.
nice, a magical arrow that can shoot underwater. Not even bullets can be fired underwater.
😉
sure they can, just only at very close range.
You can use a crossbow underwater and at close range it can easily cut a fish in half.

Wouldn’t she just kinda float slowly downward rather than falling swift enough for Alex to need to catch her?
Maybe I’m just being nitpicky…
Not if the Kracka threw her.
Natural response to pain is to contract, rather than to release.
I don’t think there is much “natural” about this kraken.
Besides, maybe it thought she bit it or something. I know when I have something in my hand and it causes me pain my instinct is to fling it away.

Pressure point?
The kraken had a purple voice bubble with green letters in the cave — changed here. (Oops!)
:S
I just *knew* Nastajia was going to drive him into the arms of another woman…
Er… Drive another woman into his arms…
One of those.
Acupuncture!
Kraken: Owwwiiee it poked me
Torpedo away. 🙂 Nice bubble streak behind the arrow.
That’s what I was thinking.
But… that wouldn’t be as dramatic as Alex catching her in his arms!
The arrow hit the back of the hand. A contraction in the back would be consistent with opening the grip.
whose to say the arrow wouldn’t go through the hand and hit felicity…and would Nastajia care?

Why did he need to catch her, they are underwater. They FLOAT!
Being part cat, I’m sure Fel would have landed right-side up, even in mer-form.
Unless she wanted Alex to catch her, which is entirely possible.
Kraaken: Oh no, I have a splinter! Obviously I should drop whatever I’m holding!
