Art style: Pixar-like 3D. A vertical medium shot set within a dense field of giant, translucent green sea plants that sway like ribbons in the current. Tiko is in the foreground, his face scrunched up as a feather-like leaf tickles his nose. His eyes are crossed, and his mouth is half-open in a pre-sneeze expression. Bubble is in the midground, looking on with a worried and panicked expression, his tentacles retracted. The lighting is filtered through the green leaves, creating a moody yet bright emerald glow throughout the scene. Tiny bubbles and particles of sea foam are trapped between the plants. The textures of the sea plants are smooth and slimy, while Tiko's skin shows a soft, matte finish. The composition is tight and claustrophobic, emphasizing the ticklish situation. In the background, more plants create layers of depth, and the turquoise water is visible through the gaps. The overall tone is comedic and building toward a big physical payoff. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image in the following art style: Stylized cinematic 3D, expressive animated characters, soft rounded forms, polished materials, warm cinematic lighting, charming facial expressions, high-end animated film look.
