'Wait what is that' is a bigfin squid, they live in the deep and are hard to find because of that. That's just a juvenile, that's why it's not that big.

Somebody who actually knows what they’re talking about can correct me here, but I’m pretty sure those are the tentacles, with the grabby things on the end- and in the foreground… because it was annoyed at the sub/rov. (And may have punched it.)
(“grabby things” is a highly technical term.)
It’s the Humbolts you gotta be worried about. These guys mostly just lurk and silently judge your music choices.
Eldritch abomination looking ass
