Summary
There’s a saying that is well-spread across the deepest ingrains and crevices of the ocean. Its advice is rarely heeded because it is rarely ever heard by creatures who linger closer to the light, the parts of the sea where they can soak up the warmest colours. Jade has done his fair share of deep-diving, so he can’t say he was unfamiliar with the warning. But he supposed that now that he was on the surface where the reds and yellows and earthy browns could soak his skin, the words of the deep grew old and lost to him.
When he walked onto the grounds of NRC, by some stroke of pure luck, the words rang to him there, louder and clearer than ever.

AKA The fic where, amidst an investigation into horrific drowning incidents at NRC, Jade accidentally incriminates himself with his… interests, and works to clear his name by catching the real culprit.
