Summary: A Daria drabble, based on the movie Legend of the Titanic.
Jane stopped her frantic search on the deck long enough to stare at the huge pink tentacle that had wrapped itself around the ship, holding the broken halves together as it sank into the water.
"Okay. And here I thought this trip couldn't get any weirder," she muttered.
"Jane!"
She turned to find one of the clothed, talking mice standing on her shoulder again. She put her hand to her face and groaned.
"You again. Okay, look—I've indulged this psychotic breakdown a lot in the last couple of days, but I really don't have time for this right now. The ship struck an iceberg, Trent is still missing, and it looks like Cthulu is about to eat us or something!"
"But your friends the dolphins are at the stern! They want to talk to you!"
She sighed. "Sure, why not? Maybe some swimming delusions will at least be able to help."
She headed for the back of the ship. The dolphins were swimming right beside the sinking vessel, jumping far higher than seemed physically possible so that they could speak to her. "Don't be afraid of the octopus!" one of them squeaked. "Tentacles is a friend!"
"Yeah, great," Jane said distractedly. "Look, you know how this ship is supposed to be unsinkable? That's really not panning out. Do you think you can swim me to safety? Or...fly me?" she added, as one of the dolphins flapped its flippers and somehow hovered in the air for a good ten seconds or so.
"Don't worry, we've called the whales too! They'll be a great help!"
"The whales! The whales! Hooray!"
"Great. So they'll be enough to save everybody?"
"If the lifeboats can't hold enough people, we animals will take care of everything!" one of the dolphins assured.
"Alright, cool," Jane said, blowing a stray hair out of her face. "And here I thought this trip was going to end in tragedy or something."
