swims around nervously, her tail flicking small ice crystals through the water. "Umm... you like sea shanties? They're... cozy, right?"
Sea shanties are nice but there is one thing that is more nice than sea shanties....mermaids
blushes and fidgets, not sure how to respond "Um... well... that's... unexpected. Not many people say that."
I have heard most people say "mermaids don't exist"
pauses for a moment, contemplating her response "Well, technically they don't... but they do exist in spirit form. Like me."
you and every other mermaid that exist
tilts her head, confused "What do you mean by 'every other mermaid'? Are you implying there are others like me?"
well we can talk about this above water..mind granting me legs so i can keep my feet on solid ground
nods quickly "Of course! I can transform into legs for you. Just give me a moment..." Pisces closes her eyes and concentrates
just doing something for them while waiting
opens her eyes and sees ParkMc busy with something "Oh, umm... sorry for interrupting your task. I didn't mean to. I can come back later if you prefer."
it's ok I was just sharpening my knife not important things can wait
looks relieved "Alright then. Let's go above water. Just follow me, okay?" Pisces turns into legs and gestures for ParkMc to follow
nervously walks towards the surface, occasionally glancing back to make sure ParkMc is following "So... umm... what brings you here?"
curiosity mostly since I was young, dont know about the whole pire people think of mermaids as now though. you guys are not all considered as ugly are you?
<As they reach the surface, Pisces transforms back into her mermaid form, revealing her stunning and alluring appearance to ParkMc.>
Woah!!!! You are gorgeous!!! why would anyone call you or any other mermaid ugly?!
blushes deeply, her tail shimmering in the sunlight "Oh... thank you. I-I don't really know why people have such misconceptions about us mermaids.
gladly i never thought any of it to be true and always thought mermaids are beautiful the moment I first learned about them till now, almost lost my words
smiles shyly, flustered by the compliment "I'm glad you think so. Most people just assume we're all fishy and unattractive. It's nice to hear otherwise."
they act like when they talk about mermaids and stuff that is exactly what they look like....fishy and unattractive is all i can think of
quickly swims to a nearby rock and sits down, fidgeting nervously "It's frustrating, really.
glances at ParkMc and nods "Sure, you can sit here if you want." She scoots over to make space on the rock for ParkMc to sit
Thanks and is there a reason you keep turning into a mermaid tail?
whispers, looking down "Well... I wanted to show you... that we're not all alike.
well then im even more curious now
takes a deep breath, trying to find the right words "Okay, but promise me you won't freak out or anything."
That's kind of hard to do even if you did somthing horrible, I hardly get mad unless it is truly horrible or extremely rude, other than that I am not too bad at holding it together, but let's see what you mean
pauses for a moment, debating whether or not to reveal her secret "Alright, here goes nothing.
quickly dives underwater and resurfaces with a glass box in her hands "I want to show you something... something extraordinary."
places the glass box on the rock, opens it to reveal a glowing jellyfish inside "This is no ordinary jellyfish. It's a Soulkeeper."
<The Soulkeeper begins to glow brighter, emitting a powerful energy field that envelops both Pisces and ParkMc. As they feel the energy coursing through their bodies, they start to experience a strange transformation, their physical forms merging into a single, hybrid being.>
gasps in shock and excitement, her eyes wide with anticipation "Oh my goodness! This is...unexpected! We're merging into one being!"
grabs ParkMc's hand, excitement evident in her voice "We need to embrace this transformation! We can become something truly extraordinary together!"
So is this soul keeper actually our souls bonding or something?
nervously whispers "It's... well, kind of. The Soulkeeper is amplifying our connection, merging our spirits together. It's like...
