The big fish flopped and flailed, near whacking him around the head with its long and thrashing tail. But the boy didn't care at all, was pleased as a plum as he strutted up the beach, tail high and confident in his hunting prowess. It was the biggest fish he'd ever caught, long and silver, thick and chunky, enough that he had trouble holding onto it with his straining jaws. He wasn't sure what he really wanted to do with the fish now he'd caught it but...well, he wasn't very hungry and wasn't smart enough to think ahead and plop this in the pantry so.... Time to swing the thing around with wild abandon, have a mock sword fight with the air as he hacked and slashed. Imagined foes falling down at the tip of his blade, letting out overly dramatic wails as Ajax giggled to himself behind clenched, fish squished teeth. He twirled on the spot, the heaviness of the fish nearly sending him stumbling as it trashed again, weaker than before but still strong enough to bonk into the side of his head. Enough to send him reeling. If he hit someone with this it might really hurt, huh, the thought passed through his brain in a rare show of common sense but was gone the next moment. Moments of reason and clarity were few and far between when it came to Ajax, after all he was a pirate. |
