BITE #I

[jaws5sonofjaws]

[Mart awakens, yawns, and then stretches his arms and legs upon lifting himself from bed. Drowsily, he walks past a mirror in his room... only to run back to it when he notices that one: This isn't his room. These are not his astronaut emblazoned pajama. He doesn't even have pajamas. And two: He's got flat, regular, human teeth!]

What the hell!?

[Mart examines the room further. Everything is all old and crappy, like the kind of stuff you'd see on the TV land channel. Which of course means, not cool.]

A. Phone (Public)

[Mart grabs a nearby phone and tries to call up his witch mother.]

Hey, mom!  Is this another weird spell to punish me?

B. Action

 

[Mart, not wanting to solve this mystery on an angry stomach, will walk outside, in his astronaut pajamas, and find the nearest available person to ask where is a good place to eat around here. 

 

That of course, means you.]

 

Hey, buddy, where can a guy like me get his weight in burgers around here?

Oh really...

[You can't see it, but Mart is shaping up a large toothy grin.]

Funny you mention that because my friends call me Shark-Boy.

No relation to the movie.

Sh-Shark Boy...?

[Mart laughs out loudly.]

Let me guess, you're another one of my bastard siblings?

Ol' Leviathan cannot stop...

Name's Mart Vineyard.

I promise I won't try to eat you... more than likely.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

Good, 'cause then I'd really have to get serious!

[jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com]

Really.

And what'd you do if I tried to bite ya?

Y'know with my RAZOR SHARP SHARK TEETH OF PREDATORY EATING.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

I... I'd use my tentacles on you!

[jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com]

Then I'd use 'em to make Fried Calamari.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

Th-they'd just grow back, you know!

[jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com]

Then I'd make a party platter with'em.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

What if I spit ink in your face first?

[jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm sure I could just sniff my way to ya.

.... Hehe. I'm just screwing with ya, I wouldn't eat a little girl, even if she did taste like sweet, delicious squid.

This conversation is making me hungry.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

[Too late, she's terrified. It doesn't take much. She talks a big game, but she's not that tough.]

...The store has a lot of shrimp...

[jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com]

Do they have Dolphin?

They're the glazed ham of the sea!

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

I don't think so.

[jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com]

Damn.

That woulda been sweet.

But seriously, is your dad Leviathan too?

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

Levi-who?

[jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com]

Ya know.

Leviathan.

Primordial arch god of the ocean.

Miles long, ruler of the seas, and my deadbeat dad.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

Never heard of him.

[jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com]

Huh.

So what's your story then?

Was your dad a giant squid?

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

He might have been.

[jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com]

So, you don't know who your parents are?

Rough break, kid.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

Most squid die after mating. It's not a big deal.

[jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com]

Huh.

Learn something new every day.

Makes me glad both my folks are still around even if one's a deadbeat god.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

I'm fine on my own. I don't need any help to conquer the humans.
