Much longer chapter this month! (more than double the size of previous ones.) I just really want to get through their initial meeting “bottle episodes” of them being stuck in her room and move on to the more interesting things 👀

[muppenthings]

Wuuuuuaaah how wonderful this is!!! 💖✨

Hehe the girls were fighting (Taniel and Nikos lol)! Good on Jonna for making them focus up! xD

Awwh the girls are envisioning magical castles and meeting Ariel... Oouuh... They're in for a not so little surprise. :,)

Also the classic scenario of "Let's not give them a good reason why this area is a bad place to be in, thus making it even more enticing!" pfff! I'm so excited to see how it goes!! :D

The Spy Agencies' BIG Adventure!

A/n: So this is basically a crossover fanfic! (Miri, Anya and Eri are apart of my CrissCrossers fanfic, it's basically about other fandoms that I'm into know each other and get to together as family and friends) this is a cute fun fanfic with @muppenthings ocs!

Chapter 1: We saw a mermaid! ...Kind of?

Fandoms: Spy x Family, Buddy Daddies, My Hero Academia

Today was gonna be a fun day! it was also gonna be even more fun for Anya, Miri and Eri. The three of them went to... a bay aquarium, it was a pretty good place. Anya was the one who insisted to go there because she wanted to see the cool fishies! And to see if there was gonna be any mermaids there!

Their adopted parents let them have fun at a cool aquarium! All alone though... But Anya insisted they all go by themselves, their big enough to protect themselves! Besides there we're some adults that promised to take good care of them.

"Alright girls, you three behave ok? We don't want to cause any mischief here or else we're all in trouble with your parents. Am I clear?" A tanned girl with curly hair was named Taniel, her words we're firm but gentle, she and her crew was promised to take care of the girls until their parents picked them up in the next few days

"Roger that Miss Taniel!" Anya smiled eagerly as she playfully did a salute gesture which earned a nod from Taniel who smiled a little

"Right, I'll make sure that you three won't get into trouble. Now, you girls stay right, here, I'll be right back." Taniel ruffled Anya's hair who giggled and Taniel turned away and left.

Anya watched as Taniel left, she had a cheeky smile on her face and turned to look at her friends and winked "Okay the coast is clear! Let's go explore now!"

The three girls giggled and wandered around

.

Anya, Miri and Eri walked down the halls, their footsteps echoing. It was pretty quiet, no one was really here. Eri, ever the shy one looked at Anya and tilted her head "Umm... So Anya? How do we find a mermaid again?"

"Ooh ooh! right Anya almost forgot! Anya saw it in the movies mermaids live in the beach!" Anya smiled and gestured her hands as if to imagine where mermaids live

"It's like deep underwater and there's a really big magical castle!" Anya excitedly squealed practically bouncing on her feet

"Maybe Princess Ariel is there too!" Miri chimed in and had sparkles in her eyes but she paused and put a finger on her chin "But— Eri has a point, how do we exactly find a mermaid?"

Anya's expression turned into a smug one, she then pulled out her black shades and a magnifying glass from her backpack, Anya put on her shades and held her chin up high with confidence and determination "Spy Agent Anya's got this!" Anya smirked widened as she fixated her shades and glanced back at Miri

"Miri! Do you have the binoculars?"

"Uh-huh!" Miri pulled out the binoculars from her backpack

"Perfect! Follow my lead!" Anya pointed toward a direction and walked fast with Eri and Miri keeping up, their footsteps echoing in the hallways

Meanwhile...

With Taniel, she eventually went back to where the kids' spot was at, she had her eyes closed and sighed softly scratching her curly hair

"Kids I'm back, it's lunch time you need to—"

Taniel opened her eyes and she froze, where we're they? They disappeared already?!

"Shoot— I lost them already?!" Taniel turned and ran to the staff's room frantically. How could she have lost them already?

.

.

.

"Taniel, what do you mean you lost the kids?" The one with a hint of annoyance in his voice was Nikos who was rubbing his temples.

"Okay look... I just left for a few minutes to gather up some documents and that was it, they didn't listen and are wandering somewhere"

Now the one with a positive energy in her was Jonna, she smiled wryly and patted Nikos' shoulder "Hey now, I'm pretty sure—"

"I told you to keep an eye on them!" Nikos looked at Taniel more directly now, his video raising a bit, his gaze hardening

"I WAS! Their kids! Of course their gonna wander off somewhere, their curious"

"You—"

"Alright you two stop it!" Jonna raised her voice, she held a hand to stop the two from arguing. They both went quiet and looked away momentarily, Jonna paused and sighed, "Look, I know this is upsetting but arguing won't fix the problem. Right now we need to focus on solving it."

Nikos nodded, "Jonna's right, I'm sorry Taniel" he looked at her with an apologetic look, Taniel's expression softened and shooked her head not at all offended, "No no Nikos I get why you we're upset and it was my fault. Right now we have to find the kids and bring them back."

The trio nodded and immediately left the room to go and find the kids. They just hope they don't run into him

.

"Anya think it's right over here!" Anya pointed excitedly at a door that leads to the outside of where a beach is, Eri tilted her head a bit concerned "Umm... Anya, are you sure this is a good idea?"

"It'll be fineee! Besides, we can find pretty sea shells there too!" Anya then pushed the door open and she gasped

"Woah! Just like the other beaches me and my parents go to!" Anya, always the optimistic, excitedly stepped outside and twirled around with Miri joining in

Eri paused, this felt like a really bad idea... She was eventually left with no other choice —she hesitantly stepped outside looking around cautiously, "It feels empty..." her voice filled with concern and wariness

"Hmmm... Maybe the mermaids are just hiding so they can surprise us and turn us into mermaids too! And then we can go to the magical castle!" Anya raised her arms and playfully did a cartwheel which she failed to do and fell to the ground gently and she made a "Oof!" sound

"Anya, I really really feel like we shouldn't be here..." Eri fiddled her fingers nervously but Anya just smiled gently "It's gonna be ok Eri! Anya is here to protect you girls!"

Miri let out a soft laugh clasping her hands to her chest clearly touched by Anya's words "Awww Any! We'll protect you too!"

Anya put her shades back on and looked through the magnifying glass again, "Now let's find some pretty sea shells first and then we can meet the mermaids!"

And just like that, the three little children began their little playful adventure. Miri was playing in the sand, Anya was using her magnifying glass examining the ground to find sea shells, Eri just sat and watched as her friends we're having fun, she had this strange feeling as if was someone was watching them, someone else was here at the beach... She can feel it for some reason.

Anya stopped in her tracks, she spotted something buried in the sand, Anya picked it up and examined it closely, it was a sea shell! It had a nice pink color and it was sparkly, she immediately ran back to Miri and Eri and held up sea shell in her hand, "Girls! Look at this cool sea shell!"

Miri quickly ran to see it with Eri following behind her, Miri smiled and had sparkles in her eyes and laughed "Waahhh~! It's super sparkly and shiny!"

Eri couldn't help but smile as well, maybe she was just overthinking it. She was here to have fun with her friends, she didn't have to worry so much after all.

Anya tucked the sea shell into her backpack, "Alright! Now let's continue finding more sea shells so we can—"

Suddenly. A loud splash of water mixed with a beast like growl can be heard in the air. It was a defeaning sound that shooked the whole ground.

The girls we're quiet before Anya swallowed and looked at her friends slightly shaking "Ummm.. Y-You guys head that too r-right...?"

Miri and Eri nodded frantically, they held onto each other looking around for the source of the sound just now "W-What was that...?!" Miri's vice trembled with fear, Eri whimpered—

"Th-That was super loud and scary...!"

The air was back to normal again, the sound of the waves moving horizontally, the birds we're chirping and the wind was gently swaying again before it somehow went dead silent, suddenly—

The door busted open which caused the girls to flinch, they turned to see Taniel, Jonna and Nikos with concerned look on their faces. They looked relieved and ran to the girls panting a bit —clearly out of breath from trying to find them. Taniel was the first to speak, "What are you girls doing out here?"

"We we're just umm..."

"It's dangerous out here. Look, we know we said you can explore in the aquarium but here it's... Off limits, alright? No child should be out here." Nikos said strictly

"Yeah you could've hurt yourself!" Jonna chimed in, her voice filled with worry

"Do you have any idea how worried we we're?!" Nikos rubbed his temples

Anya slowly looked down at the ground, she had a frown on her face, feeling guilty, it was her idea for her and her friends to go outside, she twiddled her fingers before stammering out an apology, "I'm sorry, it was my fault... I shouldn't have went out here with my friends, I guess I just got too distracted to finding mermaids..."

Taniel, Jonna and Nikos looked at each other, silently deciding what they should say, Jonna spoke first, "Sweetie, you don't have to apologize, I understand that your still young and you don't know any better"

Jonna patted Anya's head, her expression showing she completely understood that they we're just being kids, "It's completely understandable, you and your friends are just exploring and wanting to have fun."

"But you shouldn't have come out here it's well..." She paused for a moment, "Not exactly for children to play in."

The children looked down while twiddling their fingers, they knew this was a bad idea in the first place but they don't know why they still did it, eventually, the adults went to go take them back inside the aquarium, they gave them a stern warning to never go out here in this area again. Anya was the last to follow behind, she turned around to give one last glance at the ocean, before she saw a giant green tail swimming out of the waters before it quickly dived back in, her eyes widened with confusion and a hint of fear, she blinked a few times, even rubbing them to see if what she saw was right or she was just seeing things

Jonna noticed Anya not following along quickly reaching out to hold her hand gently which made Anya snap out of it "Anya? Are you okay sweetie?"

"Huh? Oh— yeah I'm fine, Anya just got distracted, I'm coming!"

Okay... Something is DEFINITELY going on around here, but what was it...?

[muppenthings]

✨ Ooooooh! ✨

Poor Emerie tho! That must've been a terrifying chase from her perspective! He didn't do a very good first impression!!! :,)

Love it! 💕💕

In the vast sea, there was two things that matter in this story, Emerie and Azure Squall

Emerie was your typical Snipe eel that just grew out of her own species. She didn’t really see that many bigger things like herself, maybe a few dragons. So she didn’t have too much of a problem defending herself. It change in the matter of seconds when she came upon The Azure Squall. She did not know of any names that this big beast was called, only that he was a giant. She was swimming around, just looking at coral or straight sand, when she saw Him. She found a new fear, being smaller. She avoided him every time she saw him. She’d always sneak past, under his gaze. He’d never know, until she slipped up.

When swimming in a vast sea, nowhere to hide.. it can be quite difficult to escape a threat. He had saw her, gazing from afar. Without any warning, he had start to swim towards her. His tail fin moving and his head straight forward. His gargantuan body was about to truck right into her. She was an entire panic tornado. She swam as fast as she could, her fear building on itself. Fear was driving her body to its maximum. Though, with Keiki being faster either way, she was eventually caught. She went straight into defense mode, every part of her body was stiff, and her tail was a bit prickly. She was stiff, and hoping to blend in with anything, acting as if she was just something to be left alone. Yet, she was never left alone.

I tried? @muppenthings big occc (Keiki)

[muppenthings]

Aaauuuwwwhh that's adorable!! 💖💕

He's giving her the full flower treatment. She's got the soil-ish and nutrients (unreachable lol look at that pile!). Now she only needs water. Which probably should be soon with her aquatic nature! xD

After all that, they both deserve a nice long nap! ;3

Erm.. I’m barging in with the aftermath now

I don’t know where he got big fruit from, since she is near 800 ft. He ended up falling asleep again, at least they’re both asleep now.

@muppenthings big occccc (Keiki)

[muppenthings]

Would Runt have a favorite book genre or is he there to vibe at storytime? 🤭

He's there to vibe! He enjoys most genres, but he's definitely in favour of happy stories (or at least a happy ending!). Anything horror themed is a hard pass for him however. xD

[muppenthings]

Stupid games, stupid prizes.

But alas he was fine. Being struck by lightning only felt weird. Maybe it woke up a braincell or two. One can hope. ;p

This is something that'd take place in the future but the thought was too funny to not sketch today. xD

[muppenthings]

Pfffffffrrrr you can't even look away for one second with her! 🤣🤣

And she's just lamenting getting taken, no wiggles or anything. Just Woe is me! xD Okay she did get rescued so it worked but still haha! xD

Stupid fish gets yoinked from the water by a comically large seagull

Stupid fish is stressing out Keiki

@muppenthings big occccc (Keiki)

[muppenthings]

Yeaaaaaaarrghhhhhh!!! This is amazing! The cuties! 🤩✨

Hahah I feel for them both; Keiki is so panicked! Gosh the part where she's yeeted gets me tho! xDDD

More peak? Or no peak?

She had something to show him, and kind of got flung. She got whiplash from the big wave that came towards her, now she’s dizzy. You can see Keiki is was very sorry. Should I make the aftermath???

[The first week that Milo took up residency in Jac's apartment, he found a strange statue garden on top of his bookshelf. He went out of his way to visit it almost every night after, oddly transfixed by the alien sculptures.]

[muppenthings]

Whoooouuuuu! Mooooaaaar! 🎉🎉

He may be all up in her space, but she doesn't seem to mind. She's just happy to be here! Just chillin' xD

MORE, MORE

If anyone wants to draw this ugly creature, you can! She is plain white, I’m being serious. The markings are grey. I know, she’s boring. Keiki keeps messing with her, just all up in her space. I don’t think he knows what personal space is.

(I WILL MAKE A STORY, PLEASE GET RID OF MY WRITER BLOCK)

[muppenthings]

Would any fans of Runt be allowed to give him (Runt safe) gifts? 👀

The marine center usually doesn’t let any visitor bring their own food items to offer any resident. They can't guarantee that it's safe, if it's been handled properly etc. so they would rather play it safe! :)

Items are different, however. Runt’s not in the chewing business like some coughCetuscough so those are a-ok! Little things like plushies, maybe a book (he'll ask a staff to read it for him, text too tiny xD) and such! :D

[muppenthings]

Since Keiki can shape-shift, what are the limits of his abilities?? And how big/small can he get

He's much more limited than the dragons when it comes to shapeshifting. His only other option is the humanoid form. But he can end up with a lot of interesting forms that are stuck in between the two. (they're often absolutely no fun for him xD;)

Like dragons, he can't add any organs he doesn't have. Which is why he can't speak human language properly even if in human form; his voicebox is structured too differently. He also struggles more to keep the form since he's more magically unstable.

His smallest is 20feet. Which is around the size he'd be if he was a regular mer! :)

Now his biggest is a good question. He hasn't tried to go bigger, he finds his actual size to already be too big. So he'd be afraid of being any bigger tbh.

[muppenthings]

Do mers shed their scales? Would they retain their color and luster? I remember thinking as a kid if I found a mermaid’s scale it’d be magical 😂

They don't shed them! The only times they fall off is if there's an injury or infection. The scales do regrow but can be discolored. It depends on the cause behind the injury. Sometimes the skin can be too damaged to regrow them, leaving them with an extra gnarly scar.

Unfortunately they come without magic, and they lose color/quality pretty fast. Their scales are prettiest on the mer! ;)

[muppenthings]

Does the same marine center look after Runt, Cetus, Keiki, and Gorm?

Ah no, all 4 characters exists in different universes! It would d have to be an interdimensionally connected marine center then. Which is a very interesting idea in itself! Like merfolk/beings across the multiverse go there for treatment. xD

Runt's the only one who lives in a proper marine center! :D

[muppenthings]

Nuna doesn't get mad. She gets even.

Cetus better sleep with one eye open. 🤣

An inspired by @smolcomfycat follow-up of this post xD

Nuna belongs to @okminer07

[muppenthings]

AaaaaaaaaAah their little faces! Adorable! :D

Hehe she looks calmer to be on his head than in his hands. Which is fair tbh considering how he handled her. xD

Keiki's vocalizations are a full-body experience for sure. Hopefully she didn't startle too badly. :D;;

MORE DARK!KEIKI AND WHATEVER THIS WEIRD CREATURE IS?!

Don’t know how she got up there, but she’s up there. Maybe he just beached on some form of land, and he happened to do it right under her? Any other ideas, I’m out.

She got freaked out by the insanely loud sounds coming from him. @muppenthings Oc!!

[muppenthings]

Some more Nuna and Cetus. He just woke up so he's doing a little stretch. As one does. Nuna doesn't know where to look. Confusion.exe. xD
