(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. )
(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.)
(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.)

(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.)

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.)

Also there's a lotta trash around here.

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.)

[ imagine if the fish just slipped out of the hook or something. ]
Let's get that prepped and ready to eat.

He's practically sparkling? Like, can you see the stars around him? No, of course not. But he really is excited.)
I did it!
(He is literally ten years old right now.)
I've never caught a fish before. It was a little exciting.
(Only a little. He still remembers all of that waiting and trash. But yes. He nods and will follow along with his cute fish?)
