Ocean's Breath Plateau i live on saturn

with the idea that the man wanted to reclaim his starfish suppressed, sirmiq quickly went back to gnawing on his treat. he gave a few interested blinks when told what the creature was, and then a long, silent stare when told it was polite to ask before taking. 

he did not ask when he took food from his parents. he did not ask when he took food from his siblings. why should he have to ask this man?

he did not dwell long on the thought, watchful as he gnawed and the man rounded up the scattered crabs. he paused his chewing to observe the process of packing the food in fur, a paw placed neatly upon his snack as he leaned in to sniff at the man and his work.
