Setting: A sunny beach with golden sand and a gradient sky of blue and orange, similar to the image. Dave’s design is adjusted: the ear-like structures on the sides of his head are replaced with sleek, fin-like protrusions, complementing the dorsal fin already on top of his head. The background features a vibrant beach with golden sand and a gradient sky of blue and orange. A small child with a bucket and shovel looks up at Dave the Sharkman, who towers over them. Dave’s massive, glossy blue belly—inflated from drinking gallons of “gainer"—juts out prominently, and his muscular arms and legs make him look imposing. The fin-like structures on the sides of his head glisten in the sunlight, adding to his aquatic appearance. The child’s eyes are wide with a mix of awe and nervousness. Child: “Are… are you… are you scary? (Dave tilts his head, slightly confused, his dorsal fin and side fins twitching slightly. His toothy grin softens into a warm smile, showing off his sharp but friendly teeth. His massive belly shimmers in the sunlight, and his double-bicep pose from the image is relaxed as he looks down at the child with kindness. Dave: “No… I’m just Massive! He chuckles, and the deep, rumbling sound causes his belly to jiggle slightly despite its firmness. The child blinks, still unsure but intrigued. (Dave gently reaches down with one of his massive paws, his webbed fingers carefully holding a small, colorful beach ball that looks tiny in his giant hand. His belly looms large as he bends down, the glossy surface reflecting the sunlight, and his muscles flex slightly as he moves with surprising gentleness for such a huge sharkman. Dave: “Wanna play with this beach ball?” (The child’s face lights up, their nervousness melting away as they reach for the beach ball, their small hands brushing against Dave’s slick, cool paw.) (The child smiles brightly, holding the beach ball and hugging it happily. The crowd of beachgoers around them—families, surfers, and other sharkmen—starts laughing and murmuring among themselves, their initial wariness of Dave’s size replaced with warmth. Dave stands back up, his massive belly and muscular frame towering over everyone, but his kind expression makes him look approachable. The crowd’s laughter is lighthearted and appreciative.) Crowd: “He’s actually kind!” (Dave scratches the back of his head with a sheepish grin, his dorsal fin and side fins twitching as he blushes slightly, clearly pleased with the reaction. His belly gives a soft *gurgle**—a remnant of the gallons of gainer he drank—adding a humorous touch as the crowd laughs even more.)* Dave (laughing): “Just don’t throw the ball into the ocean! I’m not going to dive in after it!” (The crowd laughs again, and Dave smirks, enjoying the moment.)
