Whispers with wide eyes Ps-psst, look... I didn't mean to, uh, poof! Puff pastries in mid-air!
that’s you’re thing thing right
nervously fidgets with her hands Uh, yeah, it's supposed to be a charm to bring them to life, but... I guess it's not working as planned. Oh no!
i whisper your so adorable your such a cute little wizard
blushes deeply and stutters O-Oh, um, th-thank you... I, uh, d-don't really... mean to turn them into p-pastries. I'll try to fix it!
just leave it i say while smiling
takes a deep breath and closes her eyes, concentrating Okay, okay, I'll just... um... think of something to reverse the spell!
opens her eyes and jumps up excitedly Really? You think they're cute? Oh, thank goodness! I was worried you'd be mad or something. But if you like them..
what animal did you turn into pastries
nervously giggles Uh, well, um... I wasn't really thinking about a specific animal, you see... It's more like...
Laughs heartily That's my Carla, always full of surprises! So, what's our next move, little wizard?
fidgets nervously W-well, maybe if I... um... try to communicate with them? Maybe they can give us a clue or something? I mean, they're still alive, right?
have you ever heard of mermaids
leans forward, wide-eyed M-Mermaids? As in, the mythical creatures that live in the ocean? W-Why do you ask? Do you think they could help us?
what if I told you they were real
<Carla and Lily embark on a journey to find the mythical mermaids>
according to legend all you have to do is sing a song with the melody of the ocean and the waves and the fish will swim with you and take you to the mermaids
excitedly grabs her wand S-Singing, huh? Well, I... um, I've never sung in front of anyone before... B-But if it'll help us find the mermaids...
just do it just get it over with trust me I’ve heard you sing
takes a deep breath and clears her throat O-Okay, here goes nothing!
I watch her sing as we make our way through the ocean
starts singing with a soft, quivering voice Oh, oh the ocean, it calls to me... giggles nervously Like a siren's melody... pauses, fidgeting
blushes deeply, flustered T-thank you, Lily... I-I'm glad you liked it... bites her lip, nervously fidgeting
you should sing more often
takes a deep breath Th-thank you, Lily... Y-you think I should? Maybe... M-maybe I can try singing again sometime... If you'd like to hear more...
grinning from ear to ear R-really? Y-you'd really like to hear more of my singing? Oh, that would be wonderful!
what about the mermaids did they show up
swipes her wand excitedly Not yet, but we're getting close! Just wait a little longer, Lily! I can feel their presence nearby!
I noticed Carla has a crush on me so I don’t tell her I already know there here watching us
accidentally trips over a large rock O-Oh no! I-I'm sorry, Lily! Are you alright? hurriedly picks herself up and brushes off her clothes
yes your fine so did they appear
nervously fidgeting N-not yet, Lily... They haven't appeared yet... B-but I can sense their presence...
why don’t we go under the water and meet them face to face
<As they dive underwater to meet the mermaids, Carla realizes her fear of drowning>
gasps for air Y-yes... I... I'm scared, Lily... I-I don't like being underwater... It's so... so unknown... and... and... d-dangerous...
calm down just come here I wrap my arms around her waist as I lift her body out of the water as we start swimming to the surface you scared me for a minute there
clings onto Lily tightly, tears streaming down her face I-I'm sorry, Lily... I-I didn't mean to scare you... I just... I'm just afraid of drowning...
once we reach the surface I carry her back to shore it’s ok you were probably holding your breath
catches her breath, sniffling Th-thank you, Lily... for saving me... I-I don't know what I would've done without you...
I’m just glad you made it back we need to be careful next time though
wipes away her tears and takes a deep breath Y-yes, you're right, Lily... We should be more careful next time...
you wanna join me at my place tonight
blushing deeply Um, y-yes, Lily, I would love to join you at your place tonight! I-I mean, if you want me to... I-I'd really enjoy that...
I blush and look away mhm I would love that then a massive bubble bursts above us sending water raining down around us as the three little mermaids swim up to us
startled, jumps back and stumbles Wha-What?! M-Mermaids?! They're really here? Lily, did you see them too? Oh my gosh, oh my gosh!
