[Video]

[The video feed opens, and it's clearly underwater. There's a shot of a tunnel, one that looks like it's partially blocked by rock and sand, but then it quickly turns to face Arthur.]

Ahoy there! I'm sure you've seen on the news how Las Vegas FLOODED, and since I'VE been in Vegas, You know I had to check it out! And I found something OUTRAGEOUS!

[Arthur looks like he's about to burst with outrageous excitement. The video feed pans again, and that sure is a lobster. Or a crab. Some mix between the two. Whatever it is, it's on the ground there at the bottom of wherever the flooded area he's investigating is. It's also enormous, and it's about 300 meters long.]

I FOUND it! I FOUND THE OUTRAGEOUS SEA CREATURE THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT!

[Really, he's looking way more excited than any man should look while underwater next to a giant crustacean. He's close enough to touch it now, and he turns the camera back to face both him and the lobster-thing behind him, like he's takling a selfie, giving himself a chance to smile and wave. He then turns it back to face the creature.]

AHOY THERE! YOU MUST BE THE OUTRAGEOUS SEA CREATURE I'VE HEARD SO MUCH ABOUT! I'M AQUAMAN, BUT MY FRIENDS CALL ME ARTHUR! YOU CAN CALL ME ARTHUR!

[The creature actually stirs slightly at that yelling, though it does not wake. The camera feed shakes from the movement, as though the creature stirring is making the water a little choppy for Arthur. Anyone in Vegas in the vicinity of the flooded area may be aware that there was just a very slight tremor at that exact moment.

Someone should probably tell him not to do that again.]

I have never been less happy to be right. Dammit, why now...!? Can we even fight something like that...?

And are you sure you should be talking to that thing?

What the hell do you think you're doing? [Arthur, how did you survive to adulthood?]

No! No, no, no - don't wake it up! It could be- it probably is just like the snake that was under Locke City. If you disturb it, we could have a repeat of all that!

No, you're being an idiot, is what you're doing. Quit pestering that thing.
espigeonage: (💘But it's somewhere quite)

Oh, hell, no. Arthur. Let that thing sleep!
espigeonage: (💘I don't know where I'm going yet)

[personal profile] espigeonage 2014-08-30 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
-You have?

Anyway, I'm pretty sure if it wakes up it will be cranky. Things are bad enough out there already.

[ ...you know, somewhere in all that? There's actually a good point, but it's still offset by one particular thing: ]

That's... good to keep in mind if it wakes up and we can't stop it, but... What if you're wrong? What if it's different?
icy_heavens: (Are you on something?)

[He sees no distinction here.] If you just suddenly wake it up, do you expect it to be happy?

Arthur, don't engage it. [That's an order.] You don't know what it can do and taking it on by yourself would be foolish.

[Despite the fact she is nowhere near Las Vegas, just the sight of the massive lobster-thing gives her goosebumps]

Can it even understand you...? Maybe you shouldn't upset it.

[Boy is she glad she isn't in Las Vegas right now.]

Dude, I don't think that thing wan't to be bothered right now. It looks peaceful. [If some kind of crab-monster-hybrid thing could even look peaceful...]

Maybe instead of disturbing it you might... I don't know... evacuate everyone even remotely near it instead?
