(OPENS MOUTH------)

[cranelike]

(and shuts it

but he doesnt look too pleased? he's suffering. )

[perfectdistance]

[He chuckles.]

[cranelike]

(He's dying Nero. He's going to explode.)

[perfectdistance]

[ There, there, sweet crane.

You'll have to do this after Nero. ]

[cranelike]

(Stop he hasn't been this still since he was a sword without legs.)

[perfectdistance]

[Nero does manage to pull out a fish next, and then hands the rod and bait over to Tsuru.

Enjoy.]

[cranelike]

Ah, finally!

(He's excited?! After waiting so long, he looks genuinely excited.

Then it's his turn and--)

[cranelike]

Eh? Really?

(HE'S REALLY MAKING HIM FISH???)

[perfectdistance]

Yep.

[cranelike]

(Jiiiiiiiii....

He's just going to hold the fishing rod and bait like??? What does he even do here? Help?)

[perfectdistance]

Put the bait on the hook 'nd cast it.

[cranelike]

(Looks at the shrimp,)

Can I have this instead?

(THE ONE SINGLE SHRIMP INSTEAD OF A REAL FISH)

[perfectdistance]

... You wanna eat one shrimp?

[cranelike]

It's faster.

(Than waiting as long as Nero did!! Did you know Tsurumaru Kuninaga is actually ten years old sometimes??? Like someone never learned delayed gratification or something. )

[perfectdistance]

I'm not feeding you one shrimp, you'll get hungry again in less than an hour.

[cranelike]

I can surprise you.

(Maybe he won't be hungry? Nero-kun, this is elder abuse.

He's hooking his shrimp and? Tossing? How does he toss? He's useless. Please, he's begging for a catch.)

[perfectdistance]

[Nero is watching.]

[cranelike]

(1 eternity later, there's a tug on the string! He instantly lights up and looks excited! He pulls back the string and





It's just a boot.)

... Ah...

(No, he's disappointed. But he'll try again? For the sake of not doing a bunch of tags that are repeating the same thing.......... he catches 2 more boots and a tin can.)

Eh? (Grumbling,) Am I doing something wrong?

(... Don't look at him, Nero.)

This isn't the kind of surprise I wanted...

(Just grumbling to himself,)

Am I... bad...?

(





the longest pause,)

No way.

(Someone isn't use to failing this often.)

[perfectdistance]

Takes a while to get the hang of it.

Also there's a lotta trash around here.

[cranelike]

(Stop, he doesn't need your pity. (it's not pity?)

He has his pride. (no one is taking it?))

I'm really trying...! Urashima-kun and the others make it look so easy...

(The line just... sits there.)

Isn't a crane also a water bird? Shouldn't this be easy...?

(Literally do not mind Tsurumaru going into random mini existensial crises becaues he's had to sit still for like... 90 minutes or something.)

[perfectdistance]

[ Nero and Disce just sit there like it's actually comfortable silence instead of Crane Complaints. ]

[cranelike]

(Honestly that just makes this worse and he's? Getting? Anxious? he hates failing. He hates people seeing him fail. And Nero and Disce are just so chill? He wishes they'd say something.

Tsurumaru is going to explode

But then the line tugs and he comes to life again!)

Ah!

(THIS TIME. MAYBE THIS TIME? PLEASE. he believes. for the sake of his pride, let him have a little bit of luck---

When he pulls back his line, there is one fish. Nothing impressive. But a fish. )

Surprise!? Nero-kun, look!

(He's holding the line tightly like he might lose it if he let's go or something.)

[perfectdistance]

Good work.

[ imagine if the fish just slipped out of the hook or something. ]

Let's get that prepped and ready to eat.
