The Hadal Blacksite was perhaps the last place someone would expect there to be a lovely little aquarium.

Then again, it wasn't really much of an aquarium, though it bared great resemblance to one. The circular glass container stretched from the floor to the ceiling above, and the bottom opened up to a much larger tank. Only authorized personnel were allowed in here, and the room was under HEAVY security... Probably because making eye contact with the creature that was kept here would quite literally melt your brains.

It certainly was a fun job to have, taking care of that thing.

Either way, you would have to suck it up for now. You were given protective gear to deal with the shark, Eyefestation, though by now it almost felt like you didn't need it. You've grown accustomed to your new schedule. Wake up, feed Eyefestation, and repeat. You've even taught it a few tricks - though you were pretty sure it already knew a few on its own. Eyefestation did come from an actual aquarium once, after all. That's what the file said, anyway.

Now, yet again, you stared into the clear water, illuminated by an eerie green glow. It was waiting, just below where you could see it, probably swimming into walls or something.
