Feast my children! FEAST!
Skizz nervously watched the large sea monster, who he now knew was named Impulse and didn’t actually want to harm him, swim up to him, looking to Zed only to realize the shorter man had walked off with Tango.
Skizz: W-Well Hi there, um, Impulse.
The Sea monster poked its head out of the water and sang a few low notes. Skizz had no idea what those notes could mean, but he figured he was supposed to just keep talking.
Skizz: My name is Skizz and I guess I’m gonna be your.. Keeper?
He watched the Sea Monster’s reaction closely, it didn't seem upset or hostile. It seemed pretty calm in all honesty. It wasn’t lunging or opening its mouth or anything, so that was probably a win.
He looked over it again, it was breathtaking to say the least, he hadn't really looked at it earlier and was now regretting it. It was big, bigger than a human, He would estimate about three meters long. Just the tail alone was the size of Skizz, long and smooth, like a dolphin’s, but a bright sunflower yellow. The fin was gorgeous as well, a bright purple full of frills. Five long golden tentacles extended from underneath it, tipped with glowing purple bulbs, three more extended from the severed arm. They waved slowly in the water, almost hypnotizingly smooth.
A small green Sea monster brushed through the tentacles, which latched onto it and pulled it up in the water at lightning speed, towards Impulse’s now open mouth.

Bdubs was generally very careful, being that he was the smallest sea monster in the prison. He would admit however, that he had been a little spaced out when he swam into impulse. It was better than swimming into jevin, considering it could take hours to clean off Jevin’s slime, but it was still very scary to be suddenly grabbed and tanked towards your friend’s open mouth. Impuls stopped just shy of eating him of course, but he was still startled.
Bdubs: Hey!
Impulse: sorry Bdubs! I wasn’t looking where my tentacles were!
Bdubs: Yeah, I noticed.
Impulse: *wince*
Bdubs: *sigh* It’s fine, I wasn’t looking where I was swimming. Do you know if Etho is on duty today? I haven’t seen him.
Impulse: I don’t think he is. Every six days he doesn’t show up.
Bdubs: Oh, right. Weird guy. Oh! Is that your keeper? Did they finally get you one!?
Bdubs looked up at the human in curiosity and judgement
Impulse: yup
Bdubs: He’s.. interesting..
Impulse: what’s so wrong about him?
Bdubs: why is his mouth, just, open?
Impulse: He can close it! I think he’s just surprised.
Bdubs: oh! Good!
Impulse: Y’know, not everyone’s keeper has as strange of a mouth as yours.
Bdubs: Etho has a perfectly normal mouth!!!
Impulse: …
Bdubs: He showed me one time! He does!
Impulse: yeeaahhhh suuuureeeeeee….
The human started making all sorts of noises at them, seeming almost frantic. It hurt Bdubs’s ears.
Bdubs: make him shut up.
Impulse: his voice is kinda nice…
Bdubs: Seriously!? First XB and now you!? Just make him shut up!
Impulse: How?
Bdubs: I dunno! But he’s being annoying.
Impulse: Okay okay! How about…
Impulse lunged.
