" Oh, I wouldn't worry. If anything, you should be afraid of dolphins. "

does a cool wheelchair trick.

" Well, yeah. But we mermaids are plenty dangerous too! Really, everyone is. Sharks are just a lot bigger, is all. "

⠀ nessie. oh that's disney accounts hopefully this verse will actually be decent

Y'know, sharks aren't actually that bad. It's just when you get into their territory.

she's singing to herself.

It's so cool I can just summon these.

she's spinning around her two keyblades.

it's made to brush hair. obviously.

brushing her hair with a fork again.

Been there, done that

⠀ nessie. I'm at the final boss but like should I just give up and watch the chain of memories cutscenes

wait a second. HOW COME I DON'T GET TO BE A PRINCESS OF HEART.

" Right? You know, you should come up to the surface with me sometime. There's SO much to explore! Oh, I'm Ariel! "

" Mother? "

pretty. . .

" A chi. . . huh? " She'd tilt her head. " Vilgax. Huh. "

" Wow. . . I didn't think we'd have that sort of stuff. " Maybe she should give that knowledge a look. . . " It's still called witchcraft. I just like to call it magic, is all. "

She raised a brow at the other figure. Though, left that aside for later. For now, she had her curiosity on Ursula. " You learned magic. . . to measure up to my father? Did you feel. . . like you weren't good enough, just because you didn't have the power he had? " Ariel put a hand to her

" You mean. . . a mermaid? I've never seen a squid that looks like you do before either. " She'd tilt her head in return. " I'm Ariel. "

" Wow. . . It looked so pretty. " She'd blink a few times after looking into the visage. So sparkly and shiny. " You lived in the palace? "

" Depends on which side of the debate you're on. "

" Huh? I never said I accepted any deal. What's with the brewing? "

" I have another auntie? " She'd raise an eyebrow. Who could be crazier than Ursula. . ?

" I /did/ run away over five times. . . " She ran her hands though her hair, looking off to the side. " And I have to visit every now and then. "

⠀ nessie. offers her to the greek myth muses

" Well. . . After everything happened, he sort of just. . . let me go. Guess he finally understood he can't keep me down in the ocean. Don't need legs to be on the surface, but you DO get a lot of weird looks having a fish tail. "

" Uh. . . well, I dunno? I'm the singing kind, I know a few who are deeeeeefinitely the killing kind. "

" The rundown? " She'd tilt her head. She didn't actually think she'd get anything out of her. But still, Ariel was curious.

" Ursula. . . " The princess let out a sigh. Even now, she was up to her old tricks. That sass and sarcasm certainly made it obvious to Ariel. " I'm not that stupid. Besides, I don't know what my future is going to end up being. I'm a mermaid on the surface, anything can happen. And I'd

" Well, Sora's not the only one. Heck, I lend him mine sometimes. Just gotta meet a keyblade master. And yep, mermaid. "

" Yeah! Pretty neat, huh? "

It's so cool I can just summon these.

" Phew. . . " That at least put her at ease. Though, she was still curious about Ursula's doings. . . " What happened between you two, anyway? "

" Huh. Seems legit. " The mermaid would shrug, looking over her shoulder to the mirror. " Wait. . . you're not gonna try to take over the sea again, are you? "

" . . . He doesn't have to know everything. " She would roll her eyes at the thought. " I thought you. . . y'know. " She's drawing a line against her neck, then sticking her tongue out.

hnnngh— nope! can't tempt me. I wanna swing.

don't try to distract me from the cool human thing with another cool human thing, sora.

" I was just passing by, that's all. " She'd give a bit of a pout. " I could. "

you just need upper body strength, right? ( she's putting up her arm, patting it. )

oh, come on. I'm tougher than I look, you know!

⠀ nessie. yes she is still a mermaid shush

( she's getting back up. . . ) I wanna do that.
