"a giant humanoid human eating puffer fish"

That made me laugh ngl.

Back to the topic, when writing it I did try to make it so that he's portrayed as this brave man who experiences fear and loses his cool but ultimately has to stir up some courage in order to protect his leftover crewmates. Maybe I could've portrayed that better.

As for the monster, it was a bit of a decision made on the spot to give it an actual appearance because I didn't want to make the story too much like the monster from The Mist (No it wasn't inspired by it in case you're wondering) nor did I try to make it unknown sincec I wanted to try and make a monster for once that had a full description as a sort of challenge. So maybe around the second or third rewrite of this, I'll be able to get the monster right.
