"Woops!" Brendan spoke out loud to himself as he fiddled with some strange object he wasn't familiar with. It was clearly from the surface, not necessarily Humans though, there were things that other species could use that the Humans could not. It seemed that they forgot this often. Nonetheless, some sort of cog flew out of the object as he turned a handle followed by a strange sound. He frowned at the object, then threw it over his shoulder. "How boring, stupid thing." He crossed his arms as he remained seated at the edge of his carriage of sorts. More like a small, poor quality shack/shop on wheels. Yes this was his home and he loved it. His tail smoothly swayed as he sat there, pouting like a child.
Suddenly, his surroundings became dark, puzzled and a bit on edge now, he looked around for the source before his eyes finally locked on to the waters above, a ship was going by and the greatness of it cast a large shadow bellow. Curiously, the merman tilted his head to the side to get a better look on a different angle. He wanted to get closer. Hopping off the carriage, locking it up and securing it he swam up towards the surface, but would simply look at it from the safety of the water for now. "Pirates." He muttered to himself, he forgot he was not too far from land, if he went to the surface of the waters now he would definitely see the shore. He did not pick this place on purpose thought but simply at random, moving from place to place and mapping out where he traveled was all he really did, selling a few things on the side. Anyway, following the ship, he remained just beneath it a little bit away from it, just in case.
