Subs are great.

<<TableOfContents>>


= Where? =

Beach or pool. I'm thinking Clovelly has some nice spots around the breakwall.

 * Sukumizu - should be navy, but white is available as a fallback
 * Thighhighs - white or black
 * Maybe some glasses?
 * Whatever props seem good

Not strictly I-8, but inspired by. Maybe some underwater work, maybe just hanging around near the water.

 * Submerged
 * Coming up for air
 * Swimming

 * This pose is really nice, would work well with a prop like a beachball: http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=49596754
 * Or a swim ring? Also, the seifuku top is cute: http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=49598403
