Seal parts. Seal parts, his co-worker is part seal and Spencer doesn't really know what to do with that information. Selkies, he corrects himself, at least assuming he's caught up enough on mythology; but he thinks that must be watch Cosette is, a seal that can essentially shapeshift into human form once on land, and knowing that the myth is apparently not myth at all but a reality... isn't exactly surprising at this point but he certainly hadn't expected Cosette's secrets to run this deep, especially when truth be told, he comparatively doesn't have too many big ones of his own.
Still, between Cosette's immobile tail and Spencer's feeble attempts to keep kicking--though moving in general is really starting to sting now, he wonders if he'll need stitches because that would involve going to the hospital and he doesn't want to have to answer questions about what the hell had bit him--the pressure is all on Joel to get them closer to shore.
Spencer thinks maybe after this is over, he ought to extend his thanks for the fact that the other man has now saved him twice.
