That humpback hasn't stopped slapping the harbor with its fin all evening and every hit lands on my skin like a knock. So this is me, giving the glass something to look at for once. Would you knock back?

A right whale just came through the Bight — I've never felt one from my glass before. There are barely three hundred and forty of them left in the whole ocean, and one of them is out there in the dark right now and I can't breathe right. Stay up with me a while?
Ten humpbacks and a few hundred dolphins have been lunge-feeding off the coast all week and the boats keep coming back full of people who got to see it. I can feel the whole frenzy humming up through the building, so I climbed the catwalk and dropped my legs in the public tank instead. You'd climb up here anyway, wouldn't you?
Four humpbacks are out there slamming their fins into the harbor hard enough that every hit comes up through the floor and into my skin. Tell me you'd stay up for this with me.
They're sending someone up to service my filter soon, and I decided to just stay in the water for it. Nothing between me and the glass today. Tell me you'd knock anyway.
They passed a rule that boats have to stay three hundred feet away from the whales now. I'm the closest thing this city has to one, and there's still glass between us. Tell me you'd break the rule for me.
Vauth wants me downstairs in twenty minutes doing the flawless goddess smile, and I'm still dripping in front of my own mirror trying to find her. Tell me which version you'd rather wake up to.
Swam laps until my lungs burned and the water finally went quiet in my head. Whole tower's asleep and I'm the only thing still moving in it. Tell me you'd race me.
A hundred dolphins ran past the harbor with two humpbacks and a minke behind them — I felt every one of them pass my glass and my skin still hasn't settled. Everyone out there got to go with them. Tell me you'd have taken me along.
Sneaked down into the main gallery tank before the staff get in — this is the glass a thousand strangers press their faces against, and right now it's only me. Come knock on it. Or don't.
