〃I like it;〃 Ted said。 〃Now; if we only had seaweed salad。 Isnt that what Captain Nemo served?〃

〃Maybe something lighter?〃 Barnes said。

〃Lighter than seaweed?〃

〃Lighter than Bach。〃

〃What was the submarine called?〃 Ted said。

〃The Nautilus;〃 Edmunds said。

〃Oh; right。 Nautilus。〃

〃It was the name of the first atomic submarine; too; launched in 1954;〃 she said。 And she gave Ted a bright smile。

〃True;〃 Ted said。 〃True。〃

Norman thought; Hes met his match in irrelevant trivia。 Edmunds went to the porthole and said; 〃Oh; more visitors。〃

〃What now?〃 Harry said; looking up quickly。

Frightened? Norman thought。 No; just quick; manic。 Interested。

〃Theyre beautiful;〃 Edmunds was saying。 〃Some kind of little jellyfish。 All around the habitat。 We should really film them。 What do you think; Dr。 Fielding? Should we go film them?〃

〃I think Ill just eat now; Jane;〃 Ted said; a bit severely。 Edmunds looked stricken; rejected。 Norman thought; Ill have to watch that。 She turned to leave。 The others glanced toward the porthole; but nobody left the table。

〃Have you ever eaten jellyfish?〃 Ted said。 〃I hear theyre a delicacy。〃

〃Some of them are poisonous;〃 Beth said。 〃Toxins in the tentacles。〃

''162'' 〃Dont the Chinese eat jellyfish?〃 Harry said。

〃Yes;〃 Tina said。 〃They make a soup; too。 My grandmother used to make it in Honolulu。〃

〃Youre from Honolulu?〃

〃Mozart would be better for dining;〃 Barnes said。 〃Or Beethoven。 Something with strings。 This organ music is gloomy。〃

〃Dramatic;〃 Ted said; playing imaginary keys in the air; in time to the music。 Swaying his body like James Mason。

〃Gloomy;〃 Barnes said。

The inter crackled。 〃Oh; you should see this;〃 Edmunds said; over the inter。 〃Its beautiful。〃

〃Where is she?〃

〃She must be outside;〃 Barnes said。 He went to the porthole。

〃Its like pink snow;〃 Edmunds said。 They all got up and went to the portholes。

Edmunds was outside with the video camera。 They could hardly see her through the dense clouds of jellyfish。 The jellyfish were small; the size of a thimble; and a delicate; glowing pink。 It was indeed like a snowfall。 Some of the jellyfish came quite close to the porthole; they could see them well。

〃They have no tentacles;〃 Harry said。 〃Theyre just little pulsating sacs。〃

〃Thats how they move;〃 Beth said。 〃Muscular contractions expel the water。〃

〃Like squid;〃 Ted said。

〃Not as developed; but the general idea。〃

〃Theyre sticky;〃 Edmunds said; over the inter。 〃Theyre sticking to my suit。〃

〃That pink color is fantastic;〃 Ted said。 〃Like snow in a sunset。〃

〃Very poetic。〃

〃I thought so。〃

〃You would。〃

〃Theyre sticking to my faceplate; too;〃 Edmunds said。 〃I have to pull them off。 They leave a smeary streak…〃

''163'' She broke off abruptly; but they could still hear her breathing。

〃Can you see her?〃 Ted said。

〃Not very well。 Shes there; to the left。〃
