[ With somehow both a thickness and a bite in his tone, and a dejected, annoyed pout replacing the smirk that had been frozen on his face all this time, Alberto’s response is quite quick. ]
Okay. Bye.
[ Wh-what…? It was that easy to dissuade him?!
Like hell is he getting trapped in some alien sea monster town, though. He didn’t even live in his own sea monster town back home…! It’s not that he resents being a sea monster, but… he much prefers life on the surface. He’s not risking that. Not for another second.
And so he waves to the merpeople limply, dismissively, as he immediately turns his back to them and shoots off upwards. He doesn’t acknowledge Robyn at first, barely looked her in the eye when she shot him that apologetic look — he just leaves…! And he’s a fast swimmer, even for a sea monster, wow; far faster than he’d been when moseying along with Robyn, whom he seems to have all but abandoned.
But after a second, floating a ways above her and the two very confused and concerned (and mildly offended?) merpeople, Alberto looks back to Robyn and calls to her, still just seeming… strangely annoyed. ]
