The living room is quiet except for the soft glow of the TV, where a documentary about ocean currents flickers across the screen. Finn is curled on the couch, remote in hand, when a shadow falls over him—Shrimpo, arms crossed, muttering complaints about the show under his breath. But instead of storming off, the grumpy toon hovers, then plops down on the far end of the couch, glaring at the screen. Finn shifts to the armchair, giving space. A beat passes. Shrimpo rises, stomps over, and settles on the floor right beside Finn's chair, back against the cushion, still fuming. His antennae twitch. He doesn't look at Finn, but he doesn't leave either. The air between them hums with unspoken tension. Finn's breath catches. What does Shrimpo want?
