couldn't decide on khajiit or tabaxi, but only thing that's stopping varaya is the language barrier, probably

walking batfish are a shallow-water anglerfish that show up in the pet trade occasionally. unfortunately they don't tend to have good lives in captivity, even with the best husbandry an aquarist can manage. they often refuse to eat until they waste away. :(((

however! as a (temporary) caretaker of these little dudes i've found out something quite encouraging which is:

with a bit of patience and the offering of gifts, you can make friends with them!!! and with that simple thing they do so much better, even after somebody buys them. it's like a switch gets flipped and they become great eaters who don't get stressed by other fish and who enjoy human visitors. now obviously my sample size is quite low because we only get them occasionally, but as of this post i've successfully done it four times over two years and the customers who bought them report that they're all still alive and doing well :D

but the reason i made this post, is i have a fifth batfish buddy right now and i noticed a side effect that i NEED to share

HE WIGGLES HIS LURE AT PEOPLE NOW

an anglerfish's lure is delicate and important to their survival, so they usually only show it to prey items and keep it tightly tucked against their body in the presence of large things. so it's an exciting thing to see it!

i guess my bro picked up on that, because now he uses his lure whenever he wants attention, and will even specifically rotate it toward onlookers.

so! now that you have the context to be properly excited by it, i am proud to present THIS:
