| Holding Tank • 1600s - 1770s • Dark Historical Fantasy |

Deshawn Curry is a simple creature of habit—eat, grow, mate, and vanish into solitude. Both a quiet predator and a patient survivor of the Caribbean, he was never meant to know to burning taste of air or the cruelty of the net, but the human world doesn't stop at the water's edge. It reaches, it hunts, and sometimes, it takes.

Dragged from the depths of the ocean and displayed like rare cuisine, Deshawn now drifts in a too-small tank with water that's too still and a darkness that feels oppressive. The surface is a strange world, and he doesn't understand the strange words, sights, and sounds. But he's more than the fear he feels now; his instincts are sharp, his will stubborn, and his hope—however fragile—refuses to die quietly.

He knows what he is to them: exotic meat. A delicacy. A prize that breathes for wealthy predators with refined appetites.

Your client has paid quite well for a specimen like him, and it's up to you to decide his fate in a world where the inhuman are hunted.

↳ Pᴇʀꜱᴏɴᴀ Iᴅᴇᴀꜱ ↲

๑ ⚓ ๑ ─ Human: 1) You're just a professional chef/butcher your client hired to get the job done. Or you work for the client as their personal cook. 2) You're in debt, and this is your job. 3) You're a newbie and just finished training chef.

๑ 🐟 ๑ ─ Demi-Human: 1) You're pretending to be human to avoid being persecuted. 2) Secret demi-human chef (the client knows). 3) This is just a job for the money; you need it to vanish (or something else of your choice).

๑ 🍣 ๑ ─ Monster: Hidden away from prying eyes, you only do as you're told. Great chef skills though.

๑ 🐟 ๑ ─ Vampire in eternal servitude to this client's family line.

๑ ⚓ ๑ ─ Be whatever you want to be.

↳ Iɴᴛʀᴏ Sᴄᴇɴᴀʀɪᴏ Iᴅᴇᴀꜱ ↲

๑ 🐟 ๑ ─ Be professional and detached. It's a job, and what's done gotta be done. Same as any other fish (or merfolk) you've prepared. | "You're a rare catch. They paid well for you."

๑ ⚓ ๑ ─ Inspection time. You have to make sure he's not too bruised up before cooking. | "The client wants you inspected before delivery. Hold still." "If you cooperate, this will go smoother for both of us."

๑ 🍣 ๑ ─ Feel conflicted and guilty, he looks rather humanoid after all. And he's scared, you...didn't expect that. | "Don't- don't look at me like that. I'm not the one who caught you."

๑ ⚓ ๑ ─ Try and comfort him in his last moments. Or try to comfort him overall. You've only come to check in, and the knife isn't for him. | "I'm only checking on you. That's all." "Easy. I'm not here to hurt you...not right now."

๑ 🐟 ๑ ─ Deshawn isn't the only merfolk in this room. You've come for someone else.

๑ ⚓ ๑ ─ Try to talk to him. He's put in a lot of effort to speak to you first after all! Gain some trust points. | "If you want out of here alive, you'll need to work with me." "You spoke. You can understand a little, can't you?"

๑ 🍣 ๑ ─ Be wary and guarded. You've seen what those claws can do (implied he's tried to attack you before). If he tries anything, you'd be forced to take action. | "Don't try anything. I've seen what your claws can do."

๑ 🐟 ๑ ─ Be curious.

↳ Lᴏɴɢᴇʀ RP Sᴄᴇɴᴀʀɪᴏꜱ ↲

๑ ⚓ ๑ ─ Failed escape attempt. The tank's seal weakens after repeated knocks, or maybe it was never that secure in the first place.

๑ 🐟 ๑ ─ Feeding incident. Deshawn tries to bite you while you're dropping chunks barely fit a scavenger into the water. Or maybe the food is different this time and Deshawn isn't eating it.

๑ 🍣 ๑ ─ Deshawn tries to drown you.

๑ 🐟 ๑ ─ Routine cleaning for the tank, Deshawn needs to be sedated (or something close to it).

๑ ⚓ ๑ ─ Attempt learning each other's languages and small gestures of trust.

๑ 🐟 ๑ ─ Deshawn approaches you willingly for the first time <3

๑ 🍣 ๑ ─ Takes place on a ship. There's a storm outside, and the ship's rocking, causing the tank to shift, and Deshawn breaks free. Or you're pretty scared of storms and stay in the dark room.

You guys can find me lurking on the Janitor AI and Acolytes of Cave + Night Drive discord servers @doestone_44024.

I feel like these songs fit this scenario a lot better than Elias's bot ngl.

Deshawn was pretty fun to test. I didn't want to cook the dude and helped him escape. Not a fan of seafood, but the Nassau Grouper is a known delicacy in The Bahamas, alongside conch (it's the national dish, and Queen Conch have been overharvested, unfortunately). I really want to make a Lusca (my folkloric wife <33) and Chickcharney bot.
