I just want to live

[As Simon uses the camera to navigate, he sees a tail, and the edge of what appears to be a pair of wings.]

[He can also hear some low clicking sounds.]

Ooc: Am blood siren anon!

Holy shit! *He stumbles back from the camera* what the fuck was that?!... it has wings so an Angel!?

Ooc- hi blood siren anon

What?!

I mean I didn't really like them but... did that have to happen to them?

-Steven nods firmly, his lips twisting into a sad grimace- Simon, that Ava woman had control over the eel, and she ordered it to destroy Rose's unhatched clutch. There were six viable eggs, six unborn babies brutally killed. Eaten alive from the safety of their shells before having a chance to live. (His voice is a bit gruff, although not unkind. It grows thicker with emotion as he speaks) -and he pauses to take a long pull on his joint, before he continues- Melody and Rose were the ones who found what was left of Rose's nest.

@simondrowinginblood

Oh jesus that's horrible... and they got mad at me for an accident

Ooc- okay :> I don't who to go next so I've just been letting you guys decide

Well that wasn’t all, honestly. When we got Ava out of the ship, she kind of went crazy and caused my bio mom, Bloodmoon, to turn her into a smaller version of the eel.

[Rose states as a woman eerily similar to Rose appears behind Simon, she is also the same size as Simon.]

Oh! Hi mom! I was just talking about how you turned Ava into an eel!

This is my Papa, Damien.

[Damien waves with his other hand as Rose introduces him.]

@simondrowinginblood

Uh it's very nice to meet you uh sir

dad is it normal to stand up and have my heartrate go up like 30 or more beats

I uh I don't know... Grace is the smart one so maybe ask him, but that feels like that shouldn't be happening

dr-grace-official

Oh, goodness. I’m not a doctor but I can tell you that is NOT normal. Please see a doctor!

See even a Grace agrees with me, Go to a DOCTOR!

Sort of ooc I guess

Alright everyone I got a flower, it's a Dragon Winged Begonia

I have killed every single plant I've ever had, cactus, succulents, bamboo and so on. But I will not let plantmon die (yes that's his name) so any tips would be greatly appreciated

#plantmon

Hello Mr Simon guy who’s probably married to my dad.

Can we get a pomegranate tree for the biodome?

Married!? Pfff guys uh I have no idea what you're talking about... I'm not married to anyone

That being said pomegranates sound nice, I'll see if I can convince Angel to let us have some

Papi

Where are you? I can’t find you in the sub.

I don't know, I think I'm on Erid now or something

Ooc- hi blood siren anon

[She hears him moving around in the sub.]

Either I’m loosing my hearing or they’re getting quieter.

[She mumbles under her breath.]

𝙷𝚎𝚢, 𝚌𝚊𝚗 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚑𝚎𝚊𝚛 𝚖𝚎?

[Her voice comes through the speaker as the sub starts to be dragged.]

UGH!? *He holds onto the seat so he doesn't fall* Uh... yeah, hey! What is going on!? Who are you?!

Yes, yes I really want out! Please please I'll do anything I just want to live!

Alright, well. As soon as we get to the surface I can cut open the top of this, so you'll have oxygen.

[She states, still dragging the sub out of the cave system.]

Thank thank you so much!

Ooc- don't worry about it, do the important stuff first, this blog isn't going anywhere

[She stays relatively quiet until they're out of the caves.]

Thank you *he starts crying*

[She sends a small signal of (found-another-one,-could-use-some-help) out to anyone in the area.}

Ooc: @madeofmanyfandoms does athe blood mer family stuff

Ooc- okay... I don't know what to say here so just imagine he's still crying his eyes out

Ooc: @madeofmanyfandoms could you have some of the mers respond to Rose, pls? And

(a pair of signals respond 'coming, on-our-way, there-soon' echoes through the blood ocean to Rose)

@rose-the-convict

[Rose brings Simon to the surface and starts to cut through the top of the sub with one of her claws.]

@simondrowinginblood

*He crawls his way out of the hole in the sub* I'm free!

[Rose barely manages to catch him before he falls into the blood ocean.]

@madeofmanyfandoms

AH?! *he holds on to you tightly* thank you

(a pair of nearly identical voices chuckle in sync at Simon's clumsy tumble) -as the twins emerged from the blood just in time to watch Rose catch Simon-

@rose-the-convict

Hey, Rough, Tumble. Thanks for coming.

This is, um. I'm gonna guess your name is Simon, right?

Uh yeah it's Simon... and your uh Rose?

Yep! That's my name, and these are my twin cousins, Rough and Tumble.

[She states, gesturing at the twins.]

@madeofmanyfandoms

-Rough and Tumble grin brightly at Simon- Hey there! It's nice to meet you. A pleasure indeed! I'm Rough. And I'm Tumble. (They say, speaking in alternating sentences)

@simondrowinginblood

Oh that's definitely not creepy... uh sorry. But why did you guys save me? Not that's I'm ungrateful! But why?

So, we've been trying to find a Simon that I was talking to before I got rescued by Mama. And every time we find a Simon, we'll rescue them! I think you're the fifth one we've rescued.

@simondrowinginblood

Oh uh wow your just collecting us... I don't know if I'm that Simon, probably not but I don't know, still thank you

(Rough and Tumble chuckle softly before speaking) Never thought about it like that. But I suppose we kind of are collecting you. -they grin brightly, amusement glinting in their eyes-

@simondrowinginblood

I didn't know there was that many Simons down here

If I can do anything to help since I kinda owe you all big time

Um, if you want you can help my brother Si out with his saplings.

We’re gonna need nicknames-

@madeofmanyfandoms

Yeah, nicknames are definitely a good idea. Can you imagine the upcoming gathering of the clans if we didn't? When Melody has to introduce her part of the family? Ah, yes 'I am Melody. This is my mate Damien, and these are my children, Rose, Jubilee, Yancy, Simon, Simon, Simon, and Simon.' -The Twins manage to hold a straight face for about a minute- (before breaking down into raucous laughter)

@rose-the-convict

[Rose laughs, jostling Simon a bit.]

Yeah, that would be a problem.

Oco: Btw, this is what Rose and the twins look like, and if you want me to, I could make ur Simon as well!!

@simondrowinginblood

Ooc- they look so cool! If you want to make simon I won't stop you :)

-Rough and Tumble grin at Rose's laughter, before addressing Simon- So, is there anything you wanna keep from your sub. Or do you just never want to see it again? (They ask curiously)

ooc: Rose is working on your Simon now!

@simondrowinginblood

All I really have are my clothes and seed and their on me. That sub could rot for all I care

Ooc-so exciting

Alright then, do you two want it?

[She asks the twins.]

@madeofmanyfandoms

Ooc: Ur Simon!!!

-the Twins look delighted at the offer- Sure! We'd love that! (They chirp happily)

@rose-the-convict

[She hands the sub to them, before carefully setting Simon on her head.]

Well, it’s about time we head to the lagoon huh?

@simondrowinginblood

Ooc- This is the size difference btw

Holy shit *He holds on tight* uh huh yeah sure

Ooc-aww he so tiny

Ooc: he’s like a toy compared to Ross, but do u wanna see how small he is compared to her grandma?

[She heads towards the shore with her head above the water, making sure not to splash any of the ocean blood onto him.]

Ooc-sure, I can Imagine she's even bigger

Ooc-

Ooc- he's bite sizes hehe

Ooc: Forewarning, as soon as Claire sees him she’s probably gonna get cuteness agression and her form of that is "i must hold this thing in my mouth."

@simondrowinginblood

Ooc- she's gonna give him a heart attack hehe

-Rough and Tumble wave as they head off with the sub in tow- Alright! We're gonna head out now. It was nice meeting you Simon! Welcome to the family. (They say cheerfully)

@simondrowinginblood

Goodbye you two!

[Rose carries him all the way to shore, waving to her grandma, Claire and her mate Steven, and her dad, Damien.]

Oh wow there are a lot of you guys

-Claire is calmly working on mixing a poultice, while her mate, Steven, lounges draped over her back and shoulders-

@rose-the-convict

[Damien is sitting nearby, sorting through nesting materials for Melody, when he notices Rose.]

ℍ𝕖𝕪 𝕜𝕚𝕕𝕕𝕠, 𝕕𝕚𝕕 𝕪𝕒 𝕙𝕒𝕧𝕖 𝕗𝕦𝕟?

I did Papa, and I rescued a new Simon!

[She’s smiling happily at him.]

@madeofmanyfandoms

ooc: This is Claire, Steven, and Damien!

-Claire glances up from her medicine making, raising an eyebrow curiously- Another one? That makes five now, doesn't it? (She asks, amusement threaded through her voice)

@rose-the-convict

Mhm. We need to start using nicknames or something when we’re talking about them to the other clans or something.

[She raises her hand to her head to let Simon climb on.]

@simondrowinginblood

Jesus you guys are big, how many clans are there? *He shimmies down into the hand*

Well, there are three clans that live around here. Ours, the Northern clan, and the Depths clan to the south. There's also the Nomadic clan and a couple on the other side of the moon. (Claire explains warmly) -turning around to give Simon and Rose her full attention, her gaze locking onto Simon-

@simondrowinginblood

@simondrowinginblood

Wow that's a lot... how did the COI miss you guys?

They were obsessed with the eel’s territory.

[Rose states flatly.]

@madeofmanyfandoms

-Steven nods from his position draped over Claire's back, blowing out a plume of soft bluish smoke before speaking- They left the eel's territory maybe three times in their whole existence, two of which were after Melody adopted Rose. (He drawls out, sounding a little bemused)

@rose-the-convict

Mhm. Most of the crew is either dealt with or has some, uh, changes done to make them more tolerable.

Jack I believe is still in a food coma.

@simondrowinginblood

That uh... that's horrifying, this ocean can just change people?
