There is such thing as a mummy fish in my world - it's fiesty, only swims around Angelgard, and it's a pain to catch.

[Kind of like this - he had a boat and friends on hand to help him with that sucker, so when his boots sink into muck again and Noctis almost growls as he tries to step back a third time only to get dragged back into mud, he gives a small wheeze as he strains his arms again to reel - it actually clicks a handful of times this time, proving that Noct is winning out. It's just such a long process.]

So hey, I'll take a hand holding my jacket at this point, c'mon. [It's hard to think someone Noct's size could outlast a fish pulling this hard, but his stamina isn't as bad as it looks, though his arms are definitely taking the brunt of the strain.]
