"And dangerous." But she wasn't afraid of the implications. Not yet.

She chuckled as she brought the trap closer for him to grab and she peered into it with him. "If the dog doesn't eat it first," she said, eying the smaller crab. "Better to send that little one back if we don't want to be stuck out here. Or eaten by monstrous crab creatures." One eyebrow raised. "They could exist, you know." She might have been joking a little.

She stepped back to the side to dip the pole right back into the water in her search for the second trap. "That's confident of you. All right, this one is it." It took her a few more moments to find the second cage and she twisted the hook to grasp the trap. She pulled, surprised at the weight. "Ah. Hold on..." This was going to require a little more effort already. She pulled, dragging it above the water with some difficulty. Even without the weight of the water, it was still heavy, and it became apparent why: there were five, good sized crabs in the second trap, with one smaller one hanging on at the bottom.
