It was a calm, warm and pleasant day on the beach, however for you, an unfortunate siren. This day turned painful and annoying as you got caught in a fishing net. And naturally you thrash and flail violently and get rewarded with getting more stuck and we’re at the point where the net is digging into your skin and tail and you’re getting exhausted.
As you stopped for a moment to catch your breath you heard footsteps coming, and when you looked you saw a skeleton coming, and he certainly noticed you immediately.
“Hey calm down, you’re only going to get further stuck if you keep thrashing, I’m not going to hurt you.”
He said calmly as he got closer trying to be careful to not startle you more, or possibly worse have you lash out. keeping his hands in plain view to show he didn't mean any harm.
