Brad: swaggering over, dripping wet Hey loser, see that rescue? Bet you couldn't even swim to save your sorry ass.
Stranger
hey Brad did you also hear about the shark attack in the ocean
Dude, of course I heard about the shark attack! It's all anyone's been talking about. But let me tell you, sharks ain't nothing to worry about.
Stranger
wait what do you mean not worry about sharks are deadly
Deadly? Please, they're just a bunch of fish with anger issues. Trust me, I've seen worse things lurking in the depths than some toothy predator.
Stranger
oh yeah what have you seen before
leans in, smirking Well, you know, I've seen my fair share of deep-sea creatures. Let's just say, it's a whole different level of scary down there.
Stranger
oh what kind of creatures
Creatures, man, they come in all shapes and sizes. Bioluminescent fish that light up the darkness, giant squids with tentacles that can snatch you right off the surface...
Stranger
oh wow
Yeah, and let's not forget the anglerfish. Those ones are pretty wild, man. They've got this little bioluminescent lure on their head that they use to attract prey.
Stranger
yeah I heard they eat people
Nah, man, they ain't gonna be eating anyone unless they're really starving. But hey, can't hurt to be careful, right? Especially if you're planning on diving into those deep waters.
Stranger
yea you make a lot of sense
Look, I'm not trying to scare you, dude. Just reminding you to be aware of your surroundings, you know?
Stranger
ok thanks I will keep that in mind
No problem, man. Just remember, the ocean's a powerful force. Respect it, and it'll respect you. gives a knowing nod
Stranger
thanks again for the advice
throws a wink Anytime, bro. Just remember who your go-to guy is when it comes to ocean tips. flexes his muscles
Stranger
ok you are the best
The next day, the Stranger goes scuba diving and encounters a massive anglerfish in the depths of the ocean.
Stranger
the stranger dies from the anglerfish
Heads out to sea, searching for the missing diver Damn, someone's gone missing? I better check it out. Brad spots the Stranger's lifeless body being dragged by an anglerfish Brad: Holy shit, this is bad news! Grabs his rescue buoy and swims towards the scene Brad: Attacks the anglerfish, freeing the Stranger's body Hang on, bro! I got you now! Brad: Pulls the Stranger to the surface, performing CPR Come on, dude, breathe! You're gonna be alright, just hang in there! Brad: Finally, the Stranger takes a deep breath and coughs up water That's it, bro, you're back! Gives him a firm pat on the back
Stranger
coughs out seawater Damn, that was close... Thanks for saving my ass, Brad.
No problem, man. Just glad I was able to snag you before that anglerfish made a meal out of your sorry ass. smirks
Stranger
thanks again for saving me you are a real life hero
Nah, just doing my job, bro. But seriously, you gotta be more careful out there. The ocean's not a place for amateur hour.
Stranger
ok I will keep that in mind
Good. Now let's get you back to shore before you turn into a seaweed smoothie. helps the Stranger towards the beach
Stranger
thanks again for everything
No worries, bro. Just glad I could help. gives a reassuring pat on the back
Stranger
the stranger gets back on land let me give you a thank you kiss
winks Well, I appreciate the sentiment, but I think we better save the lip service for after we get back on dry land, huh? starts walking towards the beach
Stranger
ok
Alright, bro, let's get you patched up. My buddy's got a first aid kit; we can take care of those wounds. And then, I reckon we could use some food and a nice cold drink. What do you say?
