chum and fins

He can only offer her a comforting hug and perhaps a chocolate. 

She'll take that hug, but she didn't need the chocolate. He can have it.

Pats on head repeatedly. It’ll be okay.

She had thought she was going to get eaten too. Her poor fishy friends.

                              Perhaps the only nearby living soul would be a horrendous water horse — having been cursed with an eternal gluttony. Although the shore was indeed hers, she did have claim the town’s lake as her other territory; and whoever crossed into her acclaimed area would definitely be her possession — regardless of whatever was it. And of course, she couldn’t help but to witness such a thing falling from the sky; and it intrigued her to see whatever was it that had happened to fall into her lake. A frown settled on her face. A person — she sensed it was a living being that had fell from the sky. She stood by the lake’s edge, hands resting on both hips. “How dare you falling into my lake. But no matter. I will forgive you if you willingly be my dinner for the night” 

    Jumping from the sudden harsh tone, the youngest zodiac turned her eyes to an impressive, cold woman. Instantly, the fish felt very apprehensive and small. She even shrunk on herself at the words. She didn't want to be eaten, as it was a big fear of hers. Squeaking out some, Pice finally said, "I--...um, d-don't want...to be eaten. I'm sorry..."

|| ♒ || Being the second youngest of the dozen, Aquarius rarely had any chance to act more as an older sibling and was often the one being taken care of by his brothers and sisters. But with the addition of Pisces in the family, he was glad to have his position changed as he had always wanted to be a doting big brother. And upon catching a glimpse of the said youngest Zodiac, Aquarius smiled at her as he approached her and embraced her.

Currently, Pisces was doing what she could about the penguin situation. She was told she couldn't own a penguin, unfortunately. It was too bad. She had just saw the cutest show about penguins and she immediately would like to have one as friends. But average animals couldn't do what the constellations did. So she did the next best thing. She imagined that a penguin was there with her. It followed her, listen to her. It could even fly. So were the thoughts of the youngest zodiac until they were interrupted by her brother suddenly embracing her. She let out a squeal of surprise before hugging him back on instinct.

"… Penguins have to be free."

"...! But I can teach it to not eat fish and it can fly in the sky with me...and one day I'll paint it...so it won't be just black and white...I'll take good care of it."

"Fish…"

"I....want a...penguin..."
