...An hour. And four minutes. That... is TOO MUCH FISH. That's twice as long as yesterday! What if this keeps up?! THE WORLD SMELLS LIKE FISH. IT'S HORRIBLE
( Read more... )
These things are seriously so cute! You mind if I keep one as a pet? I got this one that won't stop following me around. Calling the little guy Kipper.
*grins wryly* Yes, we've got quite the menagerie, haven't we? Some of them are mine, some of them were left here when other people... moved on. *on cue, Katrinelje slips out of another room and winds herself around Clara's ankles, purring... Clara leans down to scritch her behind the ears* Have you noticed they seem to smile, sometimes?
...they're bizarre. At least the fall doesn't seem to have hurt them too badly. I hope no one new shows up in the park trying to serve them as food. That would be kind of twisted.
They really are strange, aren't they? I've never seen anything like them. *makes a face* Goodness, I hope not. They seem... more intelligent than the average fish, somehow. ...Apparently one of them has bonded with Vorpal. She's keeping it for a pet.
*on the phone because we haven't done that yet and Sheska doesn't have a car* Clara! These creatures! I don't know what they are. I've not seen them anywhere, in any book I've ever read! Although some stuff from Japan looks close.
*moment of silent tears down cheeks* There are eight in my apartment and I can't get them out. I'm worried about the books. You know animals, how do you get rid of them?
It's a mystery. Maybe the dimensions thought they were making too much sense...
*hadn't really been thinking straight* You're right, I should open my door. I've been so worried about them damaging books that I didn't try that yet, one of them shoots water. I'm not entirely sure how they got into my apartment but when I got back after work the door was open and the doornob was broken off.
*moving through the room and opening the door* Ok, the door is open. What do I do to make them go out? *covering receiver* THAT IS NOT A CHEW TOY! *back* Sorry.
*laughs a little, albeit with some discomfort evident* That's not the first time I've wondered whether sentience is involved... I really sort of hope not, though....
...They shoot water?! ...Your doorknob was broken off?! ...Err... I don't know... try to sort of... herd them out? Or maybe... I don't know, you could try to lure them with food. ...What do you think they eat? ...Other fish?

Yes, she's naming him... it... him... err, Kipper. ...I don't know how you would tell what gender they are.

...Oh! Oh dear! Um... I don't know, I don't know anything about them! Err, um, is your door open? ...How did they get into your apartment, anyway?
