POV: You're a Tiny Guppy Merfolk, swimming in the crystal clear River, that is actually a Flooded Forest. you grew up in and then suddenly you meet me, a Giant Shark Merman that is washed up to this River, I approached you in Aggressive HAPPINESS, cause I get to meet someone finally, what would you do?
A while ago you were eaten by an eldritch creature who you thought was just a regular person.
You thought it was going to all be over, but instead of landing in a stomach, you found yourself in another world. A peaceful land made up of forests and meadows. Plentiful, full of nuts and berries that were easy to forage.
One day you hear a voice, it’s your friend. The one who ate you. They ask if you’re doing alright. You say yes. They let you know that you are actually in their stomach. But they aren’t going to digest you.
You don’t know when you’re going to get let out, but you choose to accept your new life. You live peacefully, foraging in the day, and at night sleeping under stars that don’t quite match the ones you’re used to.
Over time the environment grows more hostile; there’s less food available, and the landscape is more harsh and uninviting. You wonder if it’s because your friend is getting hungry, and you wonder if they’re going to take back their promise about not digesting you.
Not long after that thought, a huge beast seems to drop out of the sky, landing in front of you. Many eyes lock onto you. It’s bigger than any animal on earth, it’s horrifying, and it’s angry.
You scream. Luckily, your friend can hear you.
“What’s wrong?”
“There’s something here” you reply
“Oh, sorry,” your friend says, “that’s my lunch.”
That is a big lunch.
“It’s not bothering you, is it?” they ask, concerned. “Hold on, I’ll try to digest it faster.”
Suddenly the earth opens up under the creature. In the cracks are a molten kind of liquid. Hundreds of vines grasp over it, dragging it down into the soil. Covering it up mostly, until it looks like a mountain that keeps twitching and wriggling.
You thank your friend for the help, and they tell you it’s no problem (with a strangely satisfied tone in their voice).
Over the course of the next few days (or longer? You’re finding it hard to keep track of time), the bulge in the earth that was lunch is gradually flattened out. As this happens, the landscape improves; berries start growing for you again. The sun is less blistering. The lakes and streams are clearer.
You’re happy things are better. But if that creature was lunch, you’re scared to think what will happen when it gets closer to dinner time.
(none of the below is intended to be romantic unless you want it to be! interpret this how you wish)
from the giant’s pov;
the tiny sitting on their shoulder, patting their cheek and telling them how brave they are, etc. while administering their shot
the tiny being the one to put the band aid on and giving it a little healing kiss
them scooting around the giant’s leg afterwards, carefully massaging the area so it isn’t so sore later
the giant scooping the tiny into their hands and holding onto them like a lifeline (because needles scary), but being careful not to squeeze too tight
the tiny wrapping their arms tightly around the giant’s finger to keep them grounded and present, chirping sweetly about how it’s all over and they did great and how proud they are
when the giant is having mood swings and really bad pms, the tiny is always acting as their anchor, telling them to look at them and having this magical ability to almost instantly calm/reassure them
the little guy not minding being used as a fidget toy when their big buddy is feeling particularly anxious
“soon enough you might even be almost as big and strong as me!”
Finally coloured it! I was sooo afraid that it would ruined it (cause I'm still a noob at colouring) but I gotta say I'm fairly happy with the results!
