Ah nope nope nope nope.
Any sense of triumph felt as the sea stars come closer into view is quickly and violently upstaged by the sheer horrifying ick of whatever had brushed against his leg. Above water, in full Dragoon mode, Koa may have been able to keep it in stride; 20,000 leagues under the sea Koa doesn't stand a chance. He yelps, or tries to, and jumps, or tries to. Ultimately all Tal will see is a burst of bubbles and a half-sommersault, but the idea is there.
Spotting stars and deciding they have to be the right ones because fuck this noise, Koa makes a beeline in the direction that feels up, and thus away from the unseen terror. And, yes, he makes sure Tal is coming. No soldier left behind.
But for fuck's sake, buddy, vamanoose
