Alex was, to put it bluntly, terrified of that ocean. Not the coast so much, and the shallows were okay and sometimes fun to wander around in and watch whatever sea life wandered about in there, crabs and such. But the depth was the stuff of his nightmares. Something about the cold, the breached contact, the idea of struggling only to die anyway, basically....everything. It was a primal but otherwise strange fear to have, considering he'd never lived near a major body of water until now. It was just something that existed in his psyche.
Of course, seeing Imperia both get dragged under and spat back out by some unseen force did nothing to help that fear. It just made it worse. What the hell even lied under those waves anymore? Some monstrous creature of the deep?
As he cautiously made his way over, Alex let out a faint whine, ears pressed against the sides of his skull. His soft brown eyes widened in fear and worry, switching his attention from Peri to the ocean multiple times. His tail smacked against his leg, lowered in the same fear related instinct as his ears were, plastered to his head. He was shaking, big shocker, violently to at least make his clattering bones audible.
"You....ocean....what..." He spat out a mix of words, trying to form a proper sentence, or at least be coherent. He couldn't hold a conversation in a normal situation, how was he to find the words for one when Imperia just got shot out of the fucking ocean?. "You flew out of the OCEAN!" Alex shrieked after a moment of silence, the raised volume of his own voice immediately sending him into a coughing fit. He'd apologize for the outburst later, when everything settled and made more sense.
