"Gah! Slippery suckers! Let go--!"
StarfishEnigma
There is suddenly the sound of shattering glass as an unknown object breaks through a nearby window, causing Momo to look away from the tentacles for just a moment]
"Huh? What was that?" She looks to the broken window and sees someone entering the room. "Who the hell are you?! Help me!"
StarfishEnigma
The person that entered is none other than StarfishEnigma himself, who immediately threw Momo the scalpel she asked for]
Momo grabs the scalpel and quickly slices through the tentacles, freeing herself. "Thank you! Now, we have to get out of here before those things regrow!"
StarfishEnigma
The octopus tentacles start becoming whole again
grabs StarfishEnigma's arm and starts running towards the exit. "Move your ass! We can't let those things catch us!"
StarfishEnigma
Just as they reach the exit, a pair of giant tentacles crush the lab doors closed
looks around frantically. "What do we do now?! There's no way out!"
StarfishEnigma
...the windows...they might not be able to fit through, but we can climb through them
Momo looks at the broken window and sees that it's too small for her to fit through. She looks at StarfishEnigma with a determined expression. "Fine, I'll go first. You follow closely behind." She quickly climbs through the window and lands on the ground outside. "It's clear! Hurry!"
StarfishEnigma
...ah! GUAH! Fucking octopuses...
Momo looks back at StarfishEnigma with a smirk on her face. "Looks like I'm not the only one who's afraid of cephalopods.
StarfishEnigma
starts sprinting down the road away from the lab GUAH!
Momo turns back to see if StarfishEnigma is following, but he's nowhere to be seen. "Hey, wait up!" She runs back towards him, grabbing his arm and pulling him along. "We can't leave you behind! We need to stick together!"
StarfishEnigma
runs I HATE OCTOPODS!
"Alright, calm down! We're getting out of here together, no matter what!" Momo continues to run alongside StarfishEnigma, keeping a firm grip on his arm. "I promise, those slimy bastards won't touch us again!"
StarfishEnigma
After a few minutes of running, StarfishEnigma and Momo finally stop running
Momo looks around, taking a moment to catch her breath. "We made it...we're safe." She lets go of StarfishEnigma's arm and walks a few steps away from him, stretching her muscles. "Damn, that was intense..."
StarfishEnigma
...oh god...
Momo walks back towards StarfishEnigma and pats him on the back. "Look, I get it. Those things were terrifying. But we made it out alive, didn't we? And now we have a story to tell!" She grins, trying to lighten the mood. "So, what now? We continue on our journey and leave those nasty octopuses behind?"
StarfishEnigma
Octopuses are already plenty scary as it is without them having to exist in an abandoned lab
Momo smirks and playfully punches StarfishEnigma on the shoulder. "Well, aren't you the lucky one?
StarfishEnigma
....Fuck.....those....god damn....octopuses.....
Momo scoffs and rolls her eyes. "Ugh, fine. If you're so scared of them, I'll even help you get rid of those damn tentacle hair things you're always talking about!" She smirks, pretending to hold a razor and imitate cutting his hair. "Goodbye, tentacle hair! Hello, normal hair!"
StarfishEnigma
I have one request...
Momo raises an eyebrow and crosses her arms, looking curious. "What kind of request?"
StarfishEnigma
Don't cut my tentacles off
Momo's eyebrows raise in surprise, and she stares at StarfishEnigma for a moment before bursting into laughter. "Oh, you gotta be kidding me! You're actually asking me to spare the very things that freak you out the most?!"
StarfishEnigma
Because they are a part of me and help me defend myself
Momo pauses for a moment, considering his request. "Hmm... Well, I suppose that makes sense.
StarfishEnigma
Thanks
Momo smirks mischievously. "Fine, I won't cut them off... this time. But don't think I won't be watching you with those tentacles whenever we encounter any more slimy creatures!" She winks and nudges him playfully.
