The Eel Tamers (Frye x Octoling!Reader)

Eels

"So.." she began to speak again and you turned your head towards her, "what made you like eels, Y/N? I've always been interested in them." You thought about it for a second, you had been pretty much forced to work with them.
"Well, since I was young I was made to work with them." You paused as you began to stroke the eel on your lap, "They are just.. so different and special compared to other creatures."

Frye looked at your eel, it was so.. friendly.. but it was so intimidating at the same time. "Please tell me Y/N, how are your eels so well trained? I've never seen an eel like it! Mine follow my commands, but I couldn't ever touch them, definitely not."
You smiled, "they don't really ever stop working, they're just happy to travel to so many different places! It's good for an eel to travel miles everyday, you know." Still, Frye was puzzled. Miles? God, this octo is really something.

The night sky beamed with glistening stars, and you both agreed it was time to stop admiring it and go to sleep. "I made two tents, just incase I ever met someone.." Frye went into one, and you went into another. Your eels were left alone to wander around the craters.

When morning came, you stretched out of your sleeping bag inspected the craters, Frye was still asleep. "Hm, I don't think Octavio would be happy.. but I don't care. We aren't going to work with him anymore." She awakened a few minutes later.
"Woah, Y/N. I didn't realise you woke up so early. I could never! Is there any food around here?"

You took her hand, "not that I know of, but we can find some! Cmon, eels. Let's search for food." You placed her on an eel.
"Hey, wait!"
Your eels took off into the morning sun, eager for the exploring that they thought they couldn't ever achieve the ability to do.
