| take it from me [ mermaids ] | |

| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| Long story short, I found a mermaid doll creator online, and as | |
| I was messing around with it, I began creating a little story in | |
| my head. Thought it would be cool to write it down before I | |
| forget, and here I am!! I doubt that I'll ever finish this. If | |
| anything, it'll just have additions here and there. I do have | |
| other pieces of writing (one being my diary shhshh) that I would | |
| rather keep up on more so than this, so. Yeah. Have fun, I | |
| guess. | |
| [spoiler=all the dolls i made augh. see if you can make up your | |
| own story about them, i guess. but this upcoming one comes from | |
| my brain so. good luck topping that hA]also pls realize that | |
| some of the character dolls are already | |
| like | |
| transformed (which happens later in the story) | |
| so uh. just ignore that aha ) | |

| />just better. | |
| That's practically a motto down here. You hear it left and | |
| right, from the mother telling her children that the blue fish | |
| would play better than the green one, or from the king himself | |
| telling his children that life swimming is better than walking. | |
| It's just better, he would reiterate when his beloved daughter | |
| would speak up. She, as most stories would go, was the youngest | |
| of all of her siblings. And one of the only survivors. | |
| That was another thing her father used against her when she | |
| asked about the surface and the land. You see, at one point, she | |
| had many sisters and brothers. Now she was just left with a | |
| brother. Why? Her other siblings decided to go on a trip way out | |
| of the kingdom's boundaries, deciding to use the singing gift | |
| bestowed on them from their ancestors. Things didn't turn out | |
| well and... well, it would be best to leave it at that they only | |
| returned in pieces. | |
| The gift of song was something passed down to the mermaids | |
| by their ancestors, the sirens. Sirens occupied themselves with | |
| sinking ships and swindling land dwellers into drowning | |
| themselves. Life went on, and the sirens evolved into mermaids, | |
| which ended up pulling away from the shore and living far off | |
| the coast, where no land dweller dare to go. It was safer there, | |
| the king would say. No one could hurt anyone, he would continue. | |
| Well, that's kind of a lie now, isn't it? Her siblings are dead | |
| now because they believed that, and the king believed that his | |
| last daughter would follow the same path with her thought | |
| process of things. | |
| The king's name was Viridian. He came to be king from his | |
| parents, as his kingdom was ran on monarchy. His wife's name was | |
| Tyrian, and his son's was Venetian. And, finally, his daughter | |
| was Celeste. And, as if things couldn't get more predictable in | |
| this previous story telling, I am his daughter. Big reveal, | |
| isn't it? Well, I'll tell you know that this is only the | |
| beginning, and if you want me to get on with the real story, | |
| you'll have to hear some back story first. | |
| You already know about our history with humans, our names, | |
| our relations... Oh, wait, I didn't tell you about my mother | |
| yet, have I? Well... uh... she isn't a sight for sore eyes. More | |
| like, she'll make your eyes sore. I've seen pictures of her | |
| before. She looked a lot like my oldest sister, Cerise, who is | |
| dead, like mentioned a few times now. She was beautiful, | |
| graceful. My father told me that she was also incredibly nice. | |
| Then... she had us kids. She wasn't happy with her body after us | |
| children and went to and underwater witch doctor for help. He | |
| swindled her and changed her into who she is now - an octopus. | |
| Though, despite this and despite other stories that you've | |
| heard, she loves me and my brother. To pieces, even. | |
| Okay, that sets up more relations for you. I would go into | |
| detail about my siblings but, in all honesty, who wants to talk | |
| about dead fish? Exactly. So, I'll just move on to our bodies. | |
| We are water and air breathers. It would make sense - half | |
| human, half fish? Some of us, though, aren't exactly pure | |
| mermaid. My friend, Rose, is more fish than anything. You can | |
| see her scales so clearly that sometimes, its scary. Then | |
| there's Venetian, who's half eel instead of half fish. It | |
| continues to half dolphin, half shark, et cetera. Its more of a | |
| develop over time type of thing. Everyone has the genes, but | |
| only certain ones show. It's sort of like how skin color is to | |
| humans, except we don't discriminate. | |
| What? Our skin colors? What about them? Oh, they're weird? | |
| Well, they're normal here. We all have a color scheme. Let it be | |
| red, blue, or green. Rose, though, thought it would be fun to | |
| fight that system and color her hair. In all honesty, we only | |
| give her big reactions to make her feel accomplished. It really | |
| doesn't change much about her. We also have these spots on our | |
| skin that I like to think resembles human freckles... | |
| Oh, the humans! They seem so fun, and they also seem like | |
| they can do so much more up there. I don't really have legs, if | |
| you didn't notice. I can't run up to them and giggle and play | |
| with their beach balls. I ask mother and father about the witch | |
| doctor sometimes, curious as to if he could give me legs for a | |
| day, so I could have fun. They shut me down, immediately. | |
| Apparently, it isn't okay for a fully grown mermaid to have | |
| dreams. | |
| Whatever. I'll find a way up there and I'll have my fun, | |
| just you watch. But, for now, have fun with this prologue. | |
| Chapter one will commence soon, promise. | |
