[ While it was partially because of how long she'd been out on her own in the wild with now way of getting her own food—whether via hunting smaller fish or discerning anything else that can be safely eaten, neither of which she knows how to do—she's not as squishy as a girl her age ought to be.
Still, her belly is full now, and she's getting some much-needed rest... sleeping soundly under the shade inside the tank, oblivious to the predicament currently giving Katsuki grief. There is also the option of simply releasing her back into the ocean, but that's a bad idea no matter how you look at it, and one that Eri would be pretty resistant against.
In any case, it's far from the amount of sleep she actually needs, but she's too used to sleeping light. The sound of Katsuki's voice causes her to wake up, rubbing her eyes under the water. It sounds like he's talking to someone, so she immediately tenses up, but she can't see anything from under the towel covering her tank... so she carefully lifts her head up out of the water, just barely peeking out of the tank. She can't see much, but she does let out a sigh of relief when she realizes that her fears are unfounded... and despite the fact that he's talking to someone, she can't see anybody else on the boat. ]
