Of Cuttlefish and Cthulhu

[ghast]

It was About damned time that the fish arrived. Warren was staring to get just a tab bit worried that they hadn't shipped the poor guy to china or something like that. He had already had the tank set up in the room on the island in the small kitchen. He carefully pulled the unbreakable plastic container that held the little squid in it out of the box labeled fragile.

"Long time no see buddy" He said watching the little color changing squid swim about the traveling jar. It puffed up and turned its back to him. "Come on Gugs, don't be like that." He said setting the fish in the water to adjust. I'll make it up I swear" That's right he was talking to the little Cephalopod and did so quite frequently. He watched the guy swim around the container for the alloted amount of time that he could adjust to the water temperature before he released him into the tank.

The little squid was most grateful.

Lyssa entered, arms laden with a few bags she would have set upon the counter, but she looked up as she entered and took note of Warren and, she smiled softly as she set the bags down at her feet--the food was nonperishable anyway.

"So he finally arrived," she offered Warren a smile as she came up to his side and watched the squid as it moved about its tank. "Another company needs to ship him next time. I'm sure he's more aggravated than usual during a move...especially since we've not relocated in a while."

[ghast]

Warren Dropped a few shrimp into the tank when the little guy was let out of the container. He leaned forward to watch the cuttle fish practically strip all the meat from the shrimp.

Yeah, He's not happy either"

[lyssa]

Lyssa glanced at Warren and then she too watched the ease that Gugs devoured the shrimp, his color pulsing. She rested her elbows on the edge of the counter.

“I'm sure if he is continued to be appeased with shrimp for a bit longer, he'll be back to being himself. Though, he has a stubborn like someone else I know.” She smirked.

[ghast]

"Me? " He said playfully.

[lyssa]

Lyssa looked over at him, “You, stubborn? What lies.” She chuckled. She looked back at Gugs a moment. “So how have you been? What are your thoughts about this place?”
