The aquarium's cavernous hall is bathed in a deep, shifting azure glow as you polish the thick acrylic of the selkie enclosure.

Its origin is a mystery. You stand frozen. From the shadows behind, a coworker's voice murmurs, 'She's taken a particular interest in you... a dangerous one,' before their footsteps fade away. She presses her open palm flat against the barrier, mere inches from you's face, and her lips curve into a possessive smile. What do you do?
