how about someone catching a horribly messy, contagious cold and then going to the pool? the pool is packed but the sickie just Had to come today. they think that sneezing underwater will keep others from noticing their terrible cold, not realizing that just means that when they resurface from underwater, the mess will be All Over their face…
when the resurface resurface and their nose runs like HELL THAT that's what i'm picturing but on top of that the sickie getting so snzy. Not only are they gasping from needing air after being under water but also bc they're so sneezy and congested Mess is pouring down their face and into the water or clinging to their bare (or mostly bare) top when they think no one's looking maybe they blow their nose into their hands or into the water
