EAT IT [Ania/Hiroi]

S_E CUSTOM TEMPLATE

Ow. That’s her only thought. For some reason, someone had decided to just yank her from the sea. Whoever was fishing had hoped to catch a fish, but what sat on the boat’s deck was no fish. Instead, it’s a girl. A girl with long black hair, wet with sea water, and an outfit of all black that seemed to contort a bit sat there, the end of a fish, still flailing, in her mouth. The hook attached to said fish poked out of the girl’s cheek, but whoever this is didn’t seem to care. Red eyes focused on the only other person around, serpentine eyes on the one who had hooked the stranger in. Sitting there, staring, this strange girl seemed content on not explaining what she was doing in the ocean or why she had tried to catch an uncooked fish the way she had.

“...”

Well, what has Hiroi found here, out at sea? These two are neither fish nor inanimate. Though, edible all the same. The thought of snacking on two creatures out at sea crossed her mind, but she is not a carnivore that would instantly try to eat anything that moves. She has a strange humanity about herself that quells her hungering thoughts. Hiroi thought little of the tiger and its owner, another girl about her size. They are the same as every other human, a momentary chance at conversation.

Still, that doesn’t take away from the incredulous act of throwing a fake fish. Take a bite? Why, maybe she will. Lifting the fake fish, Hiroi opened her mouth. Though, it shifted as she did so, her jaw popping as it dislocated like a snake. Her canines elongated as her facial features went feral like some chimeric abomination of different animals. It only lasted a second until that fake fish was shoved into her mouth and simply swallowed into the abyss that is her stomach.

“Foolish mortals, the children of men and beasts. You dare feed the apex of hunger a measly figurine of aquatic life forms. Hiroi rumbles for the taste of flesh!”

And, as she thought little of this interaction, she thought little of playing this spooky monster just for the heck of it. The hook in her mouth probably lessened the impact of her speech. Her height and overall childish appearance probably lessened the impact of her speech. Then, she spoke with such a monotonous drawl that one would think she’d rather fall asleep than actually try to eat anyone. Well, it’s best to see how the two react and then go from there.

And then…

“Ow.”

Hiroi was punished for goofing around, the little goober taking a mean hit to the cranium for her shenanigans. Though, her “Ow” was more superficial than anything else, and her hands are now on her head because you gotta make a show out of it. Then, she was messed with further when fingers entered her mouth and started poking around. Well, that’s new, and it probably wouldn’t be too hard for her to just chomp down and make this child a meal. That’d be mean. Hiroi doesn’t like being mean for no reason, but this is a bit too invasive of her personal space. Her mouth isn’t even that crazy for one. After eating, she quickly turned her mouth back to normal, rather humanlike.

“Uh… Erm… Ello?”

She might as well try speaking, even as her mouth is being prodded.

"A siren?" Hiroi muttered with a tilt of her head. Where has she read about those before? Mmm... Oh yes! A book about sailors and stuff. Krakens, sirens, mermaids: Hiroi had to place that specific story together in her mind for a second, but then, bingo!

Suddenly, Hiroi's body shifted. She grew taller and bigger in all assets like a balloon being inflated. Though, it all kind of happened with a pop, almost instantly, until a much older looking woman stood before this strange girl and her pet cat that had hid itself.

"A siren: creatures of the sea that lure sailors from their boats with beautiful songs unto their deaths. Is that what Hiroi is? Are you afraid of being lured to your death?"

A small smile appeared on Hiroi's face as she sat there, wet and resembling more of a vixen that could seduce a man from his boat into the cold depths of the sea.

This girl is interesting. Hiroi could not help but feel a certain amount of endearment for the actions this small child took when faced with something outside their depth. It’s like having a mirror placed before her. However, Hiroi understands that such bold curiosity is enough to get one into deep trouble, trial and error proving a wondrous teacher. That also brings up the current situation that finds the Danava’s body at the mercy of this child which, much to Hiroi’s discomfort, left her squirming and wanting nothing more than to swat this girl overboard.

However, not wanting to simply harm people, Hiroi stilled her own begrudged desires and simply gave in to the fact that she is dealing with someone who lacked a brain. This girl is easy to toy with, but it seems that whoever this is doesn’t fancy complicated thinking. Even then, what a sorry lie to try and get someone to do what they want. The siren queen’s messenger? What even is that? Hiroi can literally taste the falsehood. Yet, for some reason she did not simply shut the notion down.

“I see. Then, speak your name, and Hiroi may find you worthy of help.”
