Horseshoe Crab Moon - Tumblr Posts

Okay, storytime for anyone that wants to know. When I first moved to where I lived, I volunteered at the aquarium at the touch tank. I loved the horseshoe crabs.

I am a short girl, 5’2”, at the time 170lbs. So imagine me scritching the horseshoe crabs, tickling their mouths between their legs when they flip over, letting them “pinch” me, and then holding them up to a 6 foot tall burly biker dude covered in tattoos.

My small whimpy ass: “Wanna pet her? :D”

Him: *Eyes go wide and he takes a step back.* “NO.”

I love horseshoe crabs so much. Sweet things, gentle things, so sweet and good. Apparently still enough to scare bikers.

Moon horseshoe crab makes me so happy. He is perfect. <3
