ITP: Shark Week

[falseimage]

[If one happens to be lucky enough to have access to television, it happens to be Shark Week. Which can only mean one thing.

Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, if you are anywhere near any sort of liquid....suddenly.

SEAKITTENS.

They are everywhere. In the lake (Marcy is not pleased), in the showers, in the toilet, in the laundry eating

[Hmm, the creatures that number among my Mastery have suddenly increased!]

[getabiggerboat]

So it is often said of me by humans. Many have a strange fascination with the dangerous.

[autovajin]

I don't know; maybe they've got a deathwish.

[getabiggerboat]

That is always an unfortunate thing.

[autovajin]

It's life. People live and then they die.

[getabiggerboat]

[Sharkish laugh]

Indeed, that is well said. Though the desire to hurry the process when one is perfectly healthy is quite a waste. Life is meant to be something one struggles to keep.

[autovajin]

Yeah, I guess that's one of the reasons I fight for humanity.

..........I'm going to need a bigger gun.

[getabiggerboat]

Quite. [circles, as sharks do.]

[made_inheaven]

...it talks. Of course.

Look, um. Mr. Shark, how about you knock that off?

[getabiggerboat]

Habit, you'll understand. A shark must swim or it will sink. Or perhaps you didn't know that.

[made_inheaven]

I think I've heard that before. So you're not planning to try eating me, right? Or any of the other campers?

[getabiggerboat]

It would be no effort on my part to eat you if I wished, young one. But I wonder what you humans think it takes for a shark to survive.

[made_inheaven]

It's Claire. Claire Redfield.

[Just having a conversation with a giant, flying, TALKING shark. Sure. Normal.]

Obviously, you've got to eat. But there's plenty of OTHER things to eat besides the residents. I'd really appreciate if you didn't eat my campers.

[getabiggerboat]

Counselor Redfield, it is my job to take care of those in distress. Human residents are no different from any of the other residents; I make no distinctions there.

But peace, Claire Redfield. I do not gorge unnecessarily. Those able to overcome their pain or fear around me will survive the encounter more often than not.

[Approaches you, looking rather harried]

Excuse me, are you familiar with these creatures? You seem to share a common ancestor.
