Joel seems to know a lot about the ocean, I mean have you seen the stuff in his empire? Like most aren't that ocean related, but if you look closely you see they relate to the ocean. Also there is the statue and picture of what he claims is the Ocean Goddess. He also speaks to the ocean and axolotls will bring him treasure.
Imp and Skizz has seen this happen Moreland more. They see him do it when Grian ot Gem isn't around. They see him do it with other hermits. They see him when he's alone. They guess that it's a thing he does to calm his nerves, but then they remained themselves that this is Joel. Joel doesn't really calm his nerves around people, so why does he do it around the hermits?
One day Joel asks them both to help him with stuff and to meet him at the ocean. They go, curious about what he would need and why the ocean as a meeting place. They would question it to him once they get there.
They hear a faint whisper once they arrive.
"Ah! Yes I'm bring Impulse and Skizz to see you today! You fine with that wife?"
Wife. Joel is talking to the ocean and calling it his wife? HE'S MARRIED TO LIZZIE!!! Then they think back to what he said earlier. He's bringing them both to see her, his ocean wife. They don't know how to feel, flattered, scared, confused?
Confused, they decide on confused. They stay still once they hear a response, one that sounds like someone who isn't on the server but one they have learned to know and love.
"Oh! They're here listening Joel! Of course I'm happy you brought them, but maybe next time tell them why they're here. They seem confused."
Welp, the ocean, or better know as Lizzie has seen them, somehow. Joel turns over, a bit flushed. He composes himself and waves them over.
"Welllll, uhh... nice to see you?" Joel asks, trying to remain like his normal self, failing tho.
"The ocean is Lizzie isn't it" Skizz says bluntly.
"You married the ocean Joel." Impulse adds on.
"Okay, she wasn't the ocean at first. She's the Blue Axolotl turned ocean."
"It's a long story" Lizzie says.
"We can be told it a different time if you so wish Lizzie. Now Joel, why did you call us here?" Impulse asked, questioningly.
"Ah! Right," Joel clears his throat, "Well I- Lizzie has noticed you guys seeing me talk to the ocean and, uhh-" Joel gets cut off by Lizzie speaking.
"We want to know if you heard some of they things we have spoken about..." Lizzie responds.
"Like what 'things'?" Skizz questions. He have heard a bit but not a lot, Impulse tho, slightly flushes at that statement Lizzie said.
"Well, about you guys..." Lizzie says, the water around her flushes a bit brighter while Joel's face was bright red.
"You talked about us!" Skizz said oblivious to everything.
"Uhhmmmm, Yes!" Lizzie responds quick witted, "We wanted to ask you a question."
"Okay, may I ask what i-" Skizz was cut off by Impulse saying a strained yes.
Lizzie and Joel look at Impulse, a bit taken a back by his response but smiled at him.
"Dippledop!!! What's going on here? What do you and them know!!!?!??!" Skizz was confused at this, all Impuse did was stay silent and let Lizzie continue.
"Well, I got Impulse's answer but Skizz seems to be in the dark. Well Skizz what Impulse responded to was me and Joel talking about how we wanted to date the 2 of you."
Skizz stared for a moment or 2, then his face flushed.
"OH!!! Oh my... uhhhhhhh, that makes sense with how Joel was acting with me and Impy and how...." Skizz trails off.
"Wh-What do you say?" Joel's strained voice says.
"I-uh.... who am I kidding of course!!!"
Impulse, Lizzie, and Joel breathed a sigh of relief at that. Finally, Finally it has been done and said.
Later on, Impulse and Skizz would say sweet things to the Ocean, telling their goddess how sweet and pretty she was. No other Hermit seemed to notice what they where doing.
The Ocean would reward them woth more luck and care. The ocean seemed to favor those 3. For the fact the Ocean was their wife and girlfriend.
Silly Skizziebeanspulse with Ocean Goddess Lizzie. Also Impy was hardcore crushing on Skizz the whole time as well. They so silly
They collectively decided not to mention the fact to Grian. Lizzie may be the literal ocean, but she has one hell of a cackle still. She's sure his luck will improve in the future... Maybe.
She explained in most worlds (where she has permission to reside) she still takes a humanoid form, but she's able to sneak into worlds she's not supposed to be in by... Being the ocean. Being bipedal is kinda exhausting too - being the ocean is so much better. More room to breath.
