If this is going to work then you're going to have to ignore a lot of things
A year ago a bunch of crab people came out of the sea and demanded that we stop throwing all of the chemicals into the sea, mainly all of the nuclear energy.
Normally no one would have believed or listened to the crab man but crab men emerged in front of every beach and giant animals stood in front of every submarine or ship that was at sea.
So yeah the politicians had no other choice but to listen, oddly enough, the crab men didn't care about all of the plastic and trash we threw into the sea because most of it stays where it's dumped.
So in the end a lot of corporations were shut down and the higher-ups were thrown in jail, but that not the interesting part, remember all of the comics and fantasy porn written over the years.
Well, they thought those things were real.
So nothing changed, they stayed underneath the sea and we stayed up here, sure you see more crab people walking around from time to time, but after a while, people found out that they were all wearing reverse scuba suits.
You know how people wear heavy suits to be able to walk on the bottom of the sea, yeah they have those but theirs are so that they can walk on land where there's no water for them to breathe in.
"Okay, so just how bad is our reputation?" I asked my old friend
"I can't speak for everyone else but, we keep our distance from the surface because of everything you Humans have done in the past" the crab man answered me
"I keep telling you those are all made up stories" I answer him
"Right- right so all of these years your people haven't been fighting amongst yourselves," he says to me while rolling his eye
"Yeah, but we don't catch other races and try to sleep with them, I mean don't you remember how everyone reacted when they saw your people" I answer him
"My friend I want to believe you, but it could be a case of look they brought their army and we didn't besides the fact that she is even here proves that you are lying"
Sorry, you don't understand what's going on, like I said earlier a lot of the stories we wrote in the past ended up on the seafloor because of all of the trash we threw in there, and the crab people started \ have gotten the idea that we are a bunch of horny creatures that want to sleep with anything that looks remotely human.
"Look, let's just ask her," I said to him
"Hey, do you know how to get home?" I asked the cat girl who let out a hiss at me
"I won't fall for your strange methods of seduction Human" she answered home and I can hear the crab man with me struggling to stop himself from laughing
"We know all about your kinds nature and how you fornicate with every felinus you encounter" she added
The catgirl has cat ears, black fur but she looks oddly Human, imagine someone wearing a cat costume but keeping all of their Human features, hell she's even wearing a striped black and white skirt, with a red shirt and a large bell that's tied around her neck.
"So that means you do know how to get home," I said to her, before me and my friend looked at one another, there's no point in dealing with someone that's scared of us so might as well leave.
"You sure you don't want to help her out?" I asked my friend
"She is a cat, cat's eat sea creatures. Yeah I'm going to keep my distance" My friend answered me, before saying goodbye and walking to the nearby lake that leads to the sea
I heard the sound of rocks moving behind me and I found the cat girl standing behind me
"Didn't you want to leave so go home," I said to her
"...I can't...the gat is closed so I'm stuck here" she answered me
"Greate, okay you can stay with me but you have to do everything I say," I said to her
