He liked storms, both for watching the scenery above and below the waters, and for riding the strong undersea currents the wind above affected even below the water. He had heard that a long time ago, it was possible for their kind to ride the waves on top as well, but nowadays humans and their devices were everywhere and it wasn't all that safe to do that any longer in most places. And now that his body could take the strong waves and winds, he went out as much as possible. 'Danger junkie', his friends had rolled his eyes at him, but Steve was enjoying himself too much to care.
Steve was careful otherwise, he didn't go out every storm. The last one had been a particularly violent one and the debris at the ocean floor had been stirred up more than usual. It would make good pickings afterwards but right now his eye was on the glint of metal he'd spotted from far off. As he swam closer, his eyes could see it was a fellow mer that had been pinned down by a metal beam. Steve swam faster then; who knows how long the poor mer had been pinned like that, and it was a wonder none of the larger predators like sharks had found him yet.
"Hold still until I can get it off of you!" He called out as he circled to a stop. The metal beam was a large one and with the way it had fallen he could see why the other mer couldn't shove it off of him. His old body wouldn't have been able to move it either but Steve knew he could do it now with now issues.
