[When Megami wakes, he'll find that it's sometime during the middle of the day. Sunglight gently streams in through the ceiling, though it's definitely got a different hue compared to the way things are up on the surface. Inside Poseidon's room is quiet, probably deliberately so to let Megami rest peacefully. Outside, there are distant sounds of people talking, other mers perhaps...
Then, a little flash of color zips past the entrance, and then is seemingly gone. Then, about ten seconds later, it comes back. A young mer staring wide-eyed at the river goddess, his various shell jewelry being buffeted gently by the water. He doesn't say anything for a long time, just staring.
...then, without warning, he swims toward Megami as fast as his fins can carry him, throwing himself into Megami's arms with his own outstretched, seemingly heedless of the fact that he literally just woke up. He wraps his arms around his neck anyway, exclaiming loudly:]
Mom's awake!! Mom's awake!!!
[As if on cue, five other mers appear one by one, all clustered around the entrance like they're afraid to come in. Then, they all abruptly scatter, someone saying something about going to find Dad while Megami has to contend with Osomatsu clinging to him...and soon after a few other stragglers follow, like Jyushimatsu, and Karamatsu.]
