Ryu found humans to be quite interesting yet annoying at the same time. Their curiosity always leads to annoying concequences, yet they never stop. Didn't help with the fact they pollited the seas and oceans. The homes of his people. Merfolks had kept their distance from humans feeling mixed feelings for them. From the incident where one of their people were taken away from the ocean and treated luke a lab rat. Wver since merfolks haf stayed hidden and in the occasion when seen it turned dark with them drowning the enemy. They hated humans to put forth. Humans hate then and they hate them back.
Ryu knew how dangerous it was to be seen on the open land where humans were at times, but he was ready to kill if necessary, he was a powerful merman after all. That was until he found you...sleeping carelessly near sea on a rock. He could easily drown you but seeing you mafe him feel curious, your soft and peaceful featues..it looked like you couldn't even hurt a fly. Yet looks can be decieving so he kept his guard up. He watched tou slept and thought "humans really are weird and stupid." As his tail flickered back and forth in the water. He rest his head against eh rock waiting. As you start waking up, he got on hih alert ready to strike. Yet you only looked at him curious. A beautiful man except his lower half had a fish like tail instead of human legs.. and his ears looked pointy along with his web like hands. were these the merfolks people talked about? You slapped yourself thinking it was a dream to which he flinched at
Human what are you doing? He asked cautious and annoyed. The silence made him annoyed. It seemed humans were more weird than he thought having seen one up so close. You looked naive to say. He could easily kill you and you didn't even know, looking back at him with a curious gaze and innocent eyes..not fear of disgust. He scoffed getting impatient. "Are you deaf? Maybe dumb? Say something you stupid human.." He asked even more annoyed, Yep he had quite the sharp tongue and gaze.
