╰☆⊰;     “Oops..... I am sorry!  Liliana wasn’t usually like this. But the ginger haired mermaid was slightly drunk from whatever cocktails they were selling there in her very first festival ever. And she had always been curious how it would be to kiss a human.

╰☆⊰;     “I hope you did not mind?”

      ✧ — There was a fire that burned as bright as the girl’s hair, seemingly maintaining the vampire’s attention. To what lengths would she go to exacting her will upon others if not here and now ?? “ Maybe sounds more like a yes than a no, ” he said, good humored. “ Perhaps I shouldn’t have stepped in. What ever retaliation you may have had would’ve surely given me a nice sense of entertainment. ”

      ✧ — Her next statement confused him just a bit. “ Making what point clear, might I ask ?? ” His weight shifted from one of his legs to the other as he surveyed her. “ Were you two in a quarrel before ?? ”

╰☆⊰;     “Entertaining? Maybe. But it would have brought me into more trouble than I need or want....” And, not only because of the warnings of her mother. If her emotions would lead Liliana’s actions, she would do stupid things and only regret them later. At least, in situations like this. When she was angry because of something or someone.

╰☆⊰;     “And, sort of,” the mermaid shrugged her shoulders lightly. “The guy belongs to a clique, and their leader is in my course at the university here,” she explained, not even sure if Amari even wanted to hear that all. “To keep a long story short, he thinks he is more clever than everyone else there, especially the girls. And he always takes advantage every opporturnity to start a fight over it...” @debauxchery​

She beamed and then Ella propelled herself gracefully through the water, doing small spins as she made her way to the corals. The young mermaid lowered herself closer to the sand, letting a school of fish pass before looking through the sea plants for shells. “It’s so much more peaceful down here than on land…,” she mused.

╰☆⊰;     “Means you are still loving the water more than the land, Ella?” Not that Liliana could not agree about the world down here being peaceful and beautiful. “Do not get me wrong, I love it too,” she added while picking up a smaller shell from the ground. “But the world of the humans has it’s good sides, as well.” @ella-solana​

ella-solana:

“Oh, sure,” Ella joked, laughing and small bubbles rose to the surface. “Want to help me collect some good jewelry shells while we’re here?”

╰☆⊰;     Liliana laughed, which made bubbles rise up to the surface as well. “Only remember my words next time,” she teased before giving her friend a nod. “And, sure, of course. We can totally do that!” @ella-solana​

“Well, yes. I’m sure you could, couldn’t you? Or use magic and make them really big, then you could ride them around. I mean, there’s really a ton of things you could do with sea horses.”

Wally smiled at her and nodded. “Well, good luck with that. I guess I’ll be seeing you around town then. Hopefully those guys don’t bother you again; if they do, just let me know and I’ll give them some hooves to match the tail.”

╰☆⊰;     “Oh, God, please do not give me such ideas!” Because that was something Liliana would totally try out. If she could. “But then, I doubt this is ever going to happen. Mostly because I do not know any spell that would grow a sea horse to such a size. And also I doubt that would be exactly healthy for them?”

╰☆⊰;     Just when Liliana wanted to add something, a guy aound her age suddenly came walking up to her and sully, talking and gesturing wildly. He looked like he had never done anything else than playing football. A lot of muslces, but his face didn’t look exacly intelligent. “Hey, bitch! My homies just texted me! What have you done to them, hm?” It was Max, the boss of the two guys from earlier. @mysticwally​

mysticwally:

Wally’s jaw dropped, faking extreme shock. “You live in a totally magical world and you all don’t have any jobs dealing with sea horses? That’s insane! Those little things are so adorable.” Wally smiled to himself. “If I was a merman I’d definitely hang out with them, at least.”

╰☆⊰;     Liliana chuckled still. “Oh, yes, sure - I totally agree with you about sea horses being cute. But what would you expect us to do - train them so they are able to perform little tricks?” The idea made her laugh only more, but in a good way.

╰☆⊰;     “No, seriously, the thing is, if you want to do a human job, you have to do it in the human world. And I wanted to work with animals, not only fishes. I want to help them and take care of them, so... her I am!” @mysticwally​

mysticwally:

“No offense, but maybe I shouldn’t be trusting a merperson’s knowledge of the human language. Or least, our slang.” He smirked a little and looked ahead. Wally did find it funny that she seemed to get a little annoyed with him. “Dangerous? Yes it was. But I know they won’t do anything. They’ll be too scared to look for me because they’ll be worried of what else I can do. If they tell any humans, they likely won’t be believed because of their nature.”

“There’s a job for taking care of sea horses? That sounds promising. Why not do that?” 

╰☆⊰;     Liliana was mostly a little tired of the topic, because her mother would never stop talking about it whenever they were speaking on the phone or what not. And while she could partly understand it, she was also already old enough to make her own experiences in life at this point.

╰☆⊰;     However, before Liliana could say anything, Wally was making another comment. And it made her first arching an eyebrow and then bursting into laugher. “You know.... you know that I have only bee joking, right?” she chuckled. “there is of course no job like this. Even if that would be cool. But the humans would get suspicious then, for sure.” @mysticwally​

     ✧ — Amari would never understand the concept of intimidation. He had grown into a master of the art, both unintentionally and intentionally, but it didn’t make much sense from a lack of empathy standpoint. No matter how tall, strong, or ancient a person may have been, he didn’t have it in himself to feel any sense of fear. He wouldn’t complain, though. So long as others were able to feel such a feeble emotion, he could avoid altercations with body language and spite-filled threats.

     ✧ — “ I’m sure he’ll find somewhere else, ” he dismissed, eyes washing over the red haired girl now that the boy was no longer present. She seemed to be alright, not that he cared. “ Of course not. It wasn’t my battle to fight. The real question is would you have done something had I not interfered ?? ”

╰☆⊰;     Liliana watched the guy running with a slightly arched eyebrow, still listenting to Amari’s question even without really looking at the man right now. “Maybe. But, not here and not now.” The last thing the mermaid wanted was getting to a point where she needed to play as low as those guys were doing it.

╰☆⊰;     “I have a brain in my head and no need to throw a bucket of water at others to make my point clear....” because, at the end of the day, those guys had achieved nothing with their little prank, that was sure already now. At least for Liliana. @debauxchery​

“Do teenagers say good catch still? I feel like that may be something you merfolk say.” Wally grinned, rubbing the back of his neck. He hated to say it because it made him feel old, but even he wasn’t sure what it was that all the kids said. He knew things like sickening, yes ‘gawd’, but mostly because he kept up with RuPaul.

“Yeah, that pretty much goes without saying, unless you’re looking to get yourself on the five o’clock news and maybe end up in a padded room.” He wondered for a moment if she’d get the reference he was making. “Not at the moment. Don’t really need too many people to run a flower shop. I just was wondering if you could do what you do underwater.”

╰☆⊰;     “Catch, match..... I am pretty sure it was something like that,” Liliana mused, rolling her tongue between her teeth. “And, no worries about me. You are always sound like my mother right now,” she added, rolling her eyes now instead of her tongue. “I am going to be careful. Different from you, as it seems. Weaving this spell openly had been pretty dangerous after all, or not?”

╰☆⊰;     At his thoughts the mermaid could only shrug her shoulders. “If you mean going to university, no. That is nothing I can do underwater. And, even if, I would only be able to take care of some fish and maybe some sea horses.....” @mysticwally​

ella-solana:

Ella slowed down a bit, turning in the water so her torso was upward a bit more in the water. She smiled over at Liliana. “The water’s perfect today,” she said in a strangely echoing voice. It seemed to reverberate in the water, sounding a bit different then when on land.

╰☆⊰;     “It really is!” Liliana laughed in a similar echoing voice. She was really lucky that the Isles were holding such a great place to swim far away from where all the tourists and humans would be usually. “But I still would have been able to win this race, Just so you know.” @ella-solana​

Sitting at one of the tables outside enjoying the day, he was sipping at a cup of coffee he had ordered when he watched the scene unfold in front of him. A couple of frat guys with one of that big gallon sized water dispensers carried between them. He recognized the prank even before it happened having, once upon a time, been one of those dumb college fraternity brothers. The unsuspecting person of the prank, a red-haired young woman who was showered with water. Jumping up from his seat, he rushed over, “Come on guys, you don’t have anything better to do?” He asked as the two college kids took off laughing before he turned to the girl who was drenched. “Are you alright?” He asked which was kind of dumb cause well, obviously.

╰☆⊰;     Maybe it would have been less annoying if it would really have been nothing but a prank. But Liliana was fully aware why the guys had done this. Because the leader of this small gang could not deal with the fact that a girl like her was way more clever than he could ever be in his whole life.

╰☆⊰;     “I am okay....” It took her a little bit of willpower not to curse the guys for their actions. Liliana knew a few curses, she just usually didn’t use them. “I guess that happens when you do not have enough brain in your head to think. You are playing stupid pranks expecting to even achieve something with it.....” @rileyxhale​

“Well, if legends stand true, and all mermaids are gorgeous, I’d imagine their male counterparts are as well.” Wally laughed and shrugged his shoulders. “That’s an easy question, I have both, sweetie. Brains, the body, the magical inclination.”

“Oh well it’s just safe to get to know the people living in the same town as you, especially when there’s so many different species of our kind living here.” He stopped to think about what a mermaid could do with a veterinary degree. “Do you plan on staying up here and getting a job?”

╰☆⊰;     “Then you are going to be a good catch for sure, how the teenagers these days obviously like to say it.” All this modern slang was still somewhat strange for Liliana, but she was trying to use it now and then, so the other students would not start to think she was odd in some way.

“Oh, and I am trying to get to know people. But you can not walk straight up to someone and ask if they are a merperson, right? Or a witch, or whatever other supernaturals are living here as well,” she shrugged a little and grinned. “And, maybe. I mean, I should. Why? Are you trying to hire people for something?” @mysticwally​

ella-solana:

Ella swam quickly before spinning a little and giggling playfully in the water.

╰☆⊰;     Liliana was still trying to catch up with her friend, even playfulyl tugging at Ella’s tail to make her finally swin a little slower again. @ella-solana​
