You were somewhat small sized and shy merfolk. You had soft hair and big puppy dog eyes, this friendly look was the reason you were chosen to be the newest addition to the aquarium. You had to be placed into a temporary tank to house you, until you got your own tank. This wouldn’t have been an awful thing, if you didn’t need to share this living space with it's permanent occupant, a mershark, named Peter. He was known to be aggressive towards staff and other merfolks alike, which was something you heard on accident as you were waiting transportation, which admittedly made you a bit nervous..
“Now just be nice Peter, make friends for once, will you? Would hate to remove your new tankmate, and leave you to be alone again...”
Said a staff member softly as they lowered you into the tank’s murky, dark water.
