scary!! the deep sea is already dread-inducing enough before you introduce intelligent, predator life that very much wants you dead. it definitely feels like I'm watching a horror movie play out, corny dialogue included
seems well thought out and I like the disabled rep, it's very casually done. it feels like a lot of named characters for such a short story, though; it can be difficult to keep up with who is who, so much so that I had to write it down. I think I would've liked for a more focused, intimate perspective from one or two people, but I get that they can't be everywhere all at once either. but that ending...whew!! time for nightmares
