"...I Have Like. Legs Too, Yanno."

will get to those flower asks after I watch a shitty shark movie with friends btw!! ))

"I fuckin' hate you so much rn."

...still. He did top. Sooo.

THIS MEANS HE'S THE ALPHA--

"Keep 'em? That's generous of ya. I hope I won't be needin' them soon, though, but it might take a bit."

So they knew who he was. Doesn't surprise him too much, but still. He figured he'd introduce himself anyway. "Yer Ree, righ'? The Champ?"

Could probably kick his ass. Not that he was worried about it too much. He was a changed man, and tried his best to be good... even if it was hard sometimes.

“I know who you are.”

Ree thinks about tossing the bottle, but … they’ve got no depth perception, and they wouldn’t be able to accurately throw it. So they step forward and place it on the bedside— keeping a safe but respectable distance.

“… here. They should help, or somethin. Take two at first if it really hurts.”

A pause. Ree’s chest itches a little bit.

“You can keep it. You pro’lly need it more than me.”

@cataleyatakahashi liked for a starter:

"..." Well, this is kinda awkward. He's not sure if the other wandered in for a reason, and if she did, that that reason was him to begin with. "Did Plumes-- Plumeria send ya?"

Guzma is gonna kill him if he's caught saying Plumes. But it's just a fun nickname... Anyway, back to the issue at hand. Injured guy with a fishtail stuck in Plumeria's bath tub (him), and this new person. At this rate the whole of Team Skull will be aware of merfolk.

Ahhhhhh shit.

Well, someone was bound to recognize him sooner rather than later. Couldn't exactly wear a disguise in this form either.

"I'm here 'cause Plumeria did me a solid." As much as he is a changed man, and even after he did his time in the slammer, he couldn't blame the general public for still despising him.

"I know wha' I did is fucked. I shouldn't have done it in the first place-- But that's a li'l late, huh? Can't really undo that shit."

He groans, burying his face in his claws briefly.

"Look-- I get it if ya don't trust nor like me. Bu' I'm no' here t'start anythin'. Jus'-- Let me know how I can prove it t'ya."

"Buddy the tail is the least of my problems right now!!!!!"

…what an odd thing to say. Unsure wether or not he should rethink his priorities, PJ hesitates, a hand going through his hair.

"Why are-- why are you here?!"

A very specific kind of you. The kind that implied that he knew perfectly with who he was talking.

@livingshinycharm asked: " HEY YOU!" She is there, but no fight, she brought him a cupcake.

"Finally someone who doesn't wanna fight!"

He's eyeing the cupcake, but...

"...What's the ingredient list?"

"I am wearin' it, yeaAAAAHHH--"

"MATE THAT'S NO' THE SPEED LIMIT--"

Okay why did he agree to join this person in this vehicle of death. He's regretting it so badly right now. People can probably hear him scream from streets away at this point.

"I'LL WALK--"

Vicious just grinned and he settled into the driver's seat and started the vehicle. "Glad to hear we are understanding each other. Do make sure your seatbelt is on." It was a fair warning in his books before the car sped off, he was driving way faster than he should, he had no issue driving at that speed, and he was used to out-running cops nd whatnot. He wondered how much his new companion would freak out if he admitted he was half blind.

"Po Town's Hero? That's where we are now, I guessin'?"

He forgot to ask Plumeria where she had taken him town wise, he just realized. Oh well.

"Gotta say, yer real' strong. A real powerhouse from what I've seen." Archie slowly sits up a little more, leaning against the backboard of the bed.

“I got another bottle of painkillers somewhere. I ain’t worried. I wouldn’t give it to ya if I didn’t want to.”

Ree scratches the inside of their wrist, keeping their eyes down and away. They’re awkward and anxious, and it… sucks.

“Yeah. I’m Reese. Everybody calls me Ree. I’m Po Town’s Hero.”

inbox call! ))

kinda wanna give archie a more spooky / monster like form for like. deep sea purposes iunno ))
