According to sailor legends, merpeople are beautiful and benevolent beings who guide lost ships to harbor and bring great fortune to kind fishermen who empty their nets for a chance to hear a merpersons song. The song of a merperson is an ethereal treat that few people at sea (and even fewer on land) have the privilege of hearing, but those who do are said to be blessed for the rest of their days.
Muse A is a merperson, born to a merman and a sea witch. Cursed by wicked blood, Muse As song is doomed to bring misery and death to anyone who hears it. Though it is not their fault, Muse A has been forbidden from singing to anyone (human or merperson) for as long as they live. Unable to sing freely like their seafaring kin, Muse A is an outcast and believes they will never know the joy of changing a humans life for the better. Always lonely underwater,Muse A secretly travels to the surface in the hopes of finding companionship. Merely speaking to a human couldnt hurt, they suppose. One afternoon, Muse A encounters Muse B strolling along the shoreline, pitching small pebbles into the surf. Fearing rejection from the first human theyve ever seen, Muse Athinks to swim away but Muse B spots their shimmering tail and calls out to them. They keep their distance from one another as they speak, one on land and one at sea, but are too intrigued to part ways. As it gets dark and the air becomes cold, both must take their leave of the beach. Uncertain if Muse Awill ever see another human, Muse A hastily promises Muse B that they will bring them treasures if they come back. Muse B is uncertain if its wise, but they agree to return. True to their word, Muse A brings a valuable trinket from a shipwreck far below in simple exchange for Muse Bs company. As the days pass and Muse B continues to return, it seems that Muse A has finally found a friend. All will be well, as long as they dont ever sing to Muse B.

Kieran was walking along the shore, inhaling the breeze coming from the ocean. It was a calm afternoon, he thought, and not many people were out on the beach. He had his shoes tucked under an arm, and his feet were bare against the sand. Around his neck laid his camera. He had been hoping for a beautiful sight, but so far, it seemed that nothing new had shown up. He was starting to lose hope of finding something worth taking a picture of.
-
snowstorm Newbieomi had been floating upwards next to a rock, colored perfectly that only the slightest movement gave her away. she watched in awe as she saw the few land dwellers- humans, she supposed was the correct term- walking on her home beach. she was confused and alert, however, when she saw the male holding the camera. she had been told stories about how the light blinded you if they caught you-which, of course, they were skilled in not- and accidently flipped her once ocean blue tail out of the water.
-
Kieran looked out to the shore, his eyes full of frustration. He was now alone, and the other people were mere specks out on the sand. He could feel the hope slipping from him. Perhaps, he thought to himself, today wouldn't be his day. However, some movement on a rock not too far away caught his attention. It looked as if it were a tail. He grabbed his camera, peeking at the rock. Was it a fish? He didn't know many fish that came up to shore like that.
-
snowstorm Newbieomi froze, silently praying to whatever guarded the ocean- she was never taught, exactly- and changed color. however, this change was highly noticeable, and she silently swore. why hadn't she just waited until he left?
-
He saw movement again, and without even knowing what was there, he snapped a few pictures. Instantly, he crouched down. At first glance, he saw nothing- but upon further studying, he realized he saw a woman clinging to the rock. His eyes trailed back up to where he had focused his camera, his expression in awe. He didn't see anyone there now, but- wait. "Hello?" Kieran called out, confused.
-
snowstorm Newbieomi was hesitant before she heard herself respond in a squeak. "hello." she changed color to her regular self and glared at kieran.
-
Kieran stared at the girl in awe, his eyes wide. She had appeared from mid air. Literally. Tilting his head, he squinted at her. "Who.. Are you?" He asked, releasing his camera. "Why are you out there? The rocks are dangerous, they could cut your feet.."
-
snowstorm Newbie"do i LOOK like i have feet?" she responded coldly as she splashed her tail up. "i'm a octopi mermaid (different mermaids, like shark, ect.) i have two freaking fins!" she crossed her arms and looked at him crossly. "it's not exactly the greatest when your gawked at, y'know."

Kieran gawked at her, speechless. He hadn't wanted to admit it, but this girl- mermaid- was definitely not what he had been expecting. What he thought was at first just a woman in the sea was actually a creature he thought didn't exist. He felt as if he were going to faint. "I-I.. I didn't see that," he said in a hushed voice. "You.. Really aren't human, are you?"
-
snowstorm Newbie"you really aren't human, are you?!" she gawked back. she was clearly annoyed.
(i'm sorry its not descriptive, i just woke up ;W;)
