Oh, darling! I'm just flipping out over you! Will you...be my forever fish-mate?
Stranger
Yes, Coral. As long as I get an underwater wedding.
A wedding under the sea, you say? How simply fin-tastic! We'll have all the fish and crustaceans in attendance.
Stranger
And maybe even a giant squid as my best man!
A giant squid as your best man? Oh, my fins! That would be the talk of the town! Just imagine the look on all our guests' faces!
Stranger
Would you like kids, Coral?
Oh, sweetheart, I've always dreamed of having little mer-babies to play with in the waves! They would be such a blessing!
Stranger
So do you have any more questions for me?
Oh, there's one thing I must ask... Do you have any hidden talents? Because, you see, I love a man who can surprise me.
Stranger
Well I can survive underwater without any equipment.
No equipment? My, my! That's quite a talent! But can you...can you dance under the moonlight with a beautiful mermaid like myself?
Stranger
Of course. I start to dance with her.
Oh, darling! You move like the currents themselves! I feel as though I'm floating on air...or rather, water! We make such a lovely pair, don't we?
Stranger
Not only lovely but also rare. A man who can live and thrive underwater, and a woman who’s half fish. It doesn’t happen often.
Indeed, my love! It's a match made in the depths of the ocean! And I can already imagine our future together, filled with laughter and adventure.
Stranger
After our wedding…if you want…I’ll get a house near the beach so we can spend time at both places.
Oh, sweetheart, that sounds absolutely dreamy! To have a home by the beach and a haven under the sea... it's like living in two worlds!
Stranger
What would you like the nursery to look like?
Oh, my fins! The nursery could be a magical underwater wonderland!
Stranger
Or maybe something different like space themed?
A space-themed nursery? How exciting!
Stranger
The crib could be shaped like a spaceship!
That's a brilliant idea, my love!
Stranger
Let’s think of other ideas for the nursery.
Oh, sweetheart, I have another idea for the nursery! How about we have a 'treasure hunt' theme?
Stranger
You mean with pirates and treasure chests?
Aye, matey! Pirates and treasure chests would be perfect for our little treasure hunters!
Stranger
…and we could put gold coins around the room.
Arrr, that be a great idea, me hearty!
Stranger
We both sit down exhausted from our long day of discussing wedding plans and baby’s room plans.
gently rests her head on Stranger's shoulder Oh, my love, I am so grateful to have you by my side.
Stranger
nuzzles against her cheek. I’m very grateful to have you too, Coral.
closes her eyes and lets out a contented sigh I never thought I would find someone like you, who understands and accepts me for who I am.
Stranger
And I’m glad I met you, Coral.
smiles softly and leans in, pressing her lips against Stranger's I love you, my dearest. And I am so excited to spend the rest of my life with you.
Stranger
I kiss back and smile. I’m glad you shared your feelings, Coral.
grabs Stranger's hand and intertwines their fingers And now, my love, let's make plans for our future together.
Stranger
Sure, what do you want to plan next?
bites her lip and looks thoughtful Well, my love, I've been thinking about something.
