Dude, I’m a college-age person with anxiety, something in the vicinity of ADHD, and potentially a dash of autism. Please go and look this up and/or ask a legitimate psychiatrist. Maybe look up “imposter syndrome” and see if any of that sounds familiar. Maybe think about things you succeeded at doing. I really don’t know.
The yellow crested weedfish lives in Australia’s southern
waters. It does its best to look like a piece of kelp – including moving
like one. This individual was drifting back and forth in the surge at
North Bondi, in about 18 m of water.
There were suspicions around the WRC that Ratchet wasn’t nearly as crotchety and anti-social as he let on. Late night and Afternoon tank surveillance footage seemed to imply that the cephalopod mer had been sharing his oversized “Go Away” Clamshells with a certain reticent deepsea mer. Some footage even flat out suggested that they might even share one at the same time. Which considering their lack of interaction beforehand, was puzzling.
None of the Staff could prove it though. Firstly, none of them were nearly brave enough to pull on the scuba gear and risk Ratchet’s wrath. Secondly – there was Lazerbeak, Soundwave’s pilot fish, to contend with. She liked spitting stones at those who came too close and alerting Soundwave that there was someone trying to sneak up on him. Pure scientific curiosity was slowly driving them insane. Until someone noticed Rodimus sweet-talking Lazerbeak. Then an Idea was stuck. In the end bribing Rodimus wasn’t all that hard and he already knew how to use an underwater camera.
It took him two weeks to find an opportunity to strike. After promising not to disturb the clamshell’s occupants, Lazerbeak had let him lift the lid and snap a few images. Both Mer were curled up on the soft mossy lining of the clamshell, asleep. The lid was closed slowly and Rodimus returned the camera to a waiting member of staff. Rodimus got his bribe and the WRC had a new header image for their Facebook page and Website. Wisely, no one dared to mention to either mer how adorable they really were.
Wait, I’m uploading art on a Work night? What has the world come too? adhesivesandscrap, full-autopsy here is your weekly mandated dose of cuteness! Octo!ratch’s design is sweetpupperoo‘s. Viperfish!TFP Soundwave is of my own design. And uniformshark‘s Rodimus’ arm has just snuck in.
I need a dentist, because this gave me cavities.
