Philippe eko eel has an interesting public life that can change very drastically from in-season to off-season. during the season, he's spending most of this time in Atlanta and on the road - overall, a bunch of human contexts. it's pretty difficult to blend into a human context as an eel, so wherever he goes he gets recognized. no amount of blending in will work, unless he physically hides inside of one of his friend's clothing so as not to be seen at all. He likes to crawl up Binko Koivu's sleeve and make binko's arm and leg all slimy but binko is such a good friend and he didn't mind. now binko is gona :( @goldenglutes so Eel will need to find another player who will let him crawl slimily inside their sleeve. if no one consents, he will have to force a rookie to do this, perhaps kristian seppanen @MrPresident or another young player such as sim wen @Jepox or jae-ik barron @charlieconway. In the offseason, however, he can blend in much better - he goes back home to stay with his eel family and exist in a wholly eel context, where he blends in with all the other eels and no one knows that he is famous hockey player philippe eko eel - in this story, pretend that eels can't distinguish between other eels (like how humans wouldn't be able to distinguish between eels cuz we probably don't have the eelular acuity for that) although in reality i would bet that eels can tell each other apart.
