“Did you, pull me to land?” The gentle ebb and flow of each wave caressed Edgar’s body, trying to push him further ashore. He wasn’t out of the water yet, at least not entirely. The shallows were calm, the sounds of colliding waves on the rocks and nearby cliffside the only indication of rougher tides. 

“No, I just have the disturbing hobby of beaching myself,” Scriabin countered with a roll of his eyes. As Edgar looked up into his shining face, he could tell the fish looked a little worn out. His pale skin flushed from the effort.

“Well if you did, thank you,” Edgar countered softly, reaching up to brush the back of his hand over his cheek. The biting remark died on Scriabin’s lips, head tilting into the gentle caress. Instead his lips turned up in a charming smile.

“Yea, well you have a dangerous weakness for the sea. Someone has to keep you above water,” he countered haughtily. Edgar let out a voiceless laugh, conceding the point. His throat burned from swallowing seawater, but his lungs were clear, a miracle in and of itself. 

“I’m lucky you happened along then. I was a goner for sure,” Edgar managed as his knuckles brushed over the smooth scales that freckled Scriabin’s cheeks.

“Right. You would have been fish food if I hadn't passed by when I had,” Scriabin said, his eyes averting slightly. “What were you even doing up on that cliff?”

“Trying to make a smoke signal,” Edgar replied, his hand falling to rest on his chest. “But it didn’t work.”

“Hmm, that’s a shame. Guess you’ll be stuck here a while then,” Scriabin said, his tail flaring before slapping into the water, belying his excitement. Edgar blinked in time to stop the water from the splash getting in his eyes, a grin pulling at his lips. 

“Probably. Gotta admit, dying alone on a deserted island wasn’t exactly how I thought I’d go,” Edgar admitted.

“There are worse ways, human."

Rip Tide: If I had a nickel for every handsome fish man I saw through glass, I would be a millionaire!

Dune Bug: Yes, because that “handsome fish man" is YOU!!

rip tide and punk shock have always had potential to look really cool but... man their in game designs :( some quick sketches of how i’d do their designs rip tide is supposed to be more top heavy n also just, cleaner design. chin is changed into a large round snout w/ cheeks and punk shock is like.. actually an eel

Damn, I just realized I'm in the same age with Shade! It feels so crazy because he seems so mature in the books. He acts like an adult, much more so than I do anyway. Well, maybe I feel this way because when I read the books for the first time, I was around the same age with Ty and Gemma (they're both 15) and of course a 21 years old seems like an adult to someone in that age

Even as a Kraken, Edgar loves to read. Altho it’s a bit easier when he can look at the pictures instead.
