Fast, but not bright.

The fish stopped to watch.

Strike with your mouth.

Melaneus paused, not nearly enough to catch the caveat of his father's command. He'd already sunk his face - snapping jaws and all - underwater without catching that final word. If he failed! He would not need to know.

Water filled his mouth and he nearly panicked, but then his teeth sunk into fish and he yanked the creature out of the depths. Fins slapped his face. He staggered backwards. Hold still!

He'd caught the fish, but how could he kill it? And where was its neck? He looked towards his father with sudden panic in his eyes. Should he bite it? Should he drown it with air? What was he supposed to do?

Rolled with the rng, expected him to fail but here he is by some stroke of luck! xD
