a selkie falls in love with a sailor. instead of stealing her sealskin (bc no wtf), he takes a job on a whaling ship so that she can keep living her best life in the arctic and just hang out with him when it suits

#tired of this social pressure where selkies are expected to surrender their sealhood and live on land and raise human kids #what about a selkie who can have both a marriage AND a job (being a seal) huh??? #they both spend their days working (catching fish) and evenings chilling out #she comes to visit him in his cozy little cabin #yeah his co-workers sometimes wonder why there's a goddamn live SEAL sleeping in his berth #but it seems polite and well-trained and only ever bit anyone that one time so whatever it's fine #anyways i love the potential of a human/selkie couple imagine the conversations they could have #they argue about whether or not mermaids are real (the selkie doubts it but the sailor is superstitious) #and whether or not they should attempt to have a threesome with a mermaid if the opportunity presents itself #(she's dtf but he's worried it will lead to Curses and Shipwrecks)

Bluebeard-and-Pronouns the woke pirate: arrg so he's gotten a mastectomy. well i'm glad that he's discovered himself.

Are you fucking kidding me right now?! I was told we’d cruise the seas for american gold, that we’d fire no guns AND shed no tears, but NOW I’m a broken man on a halifax pier, the LAST of barrett’s FUCKING privateers!!! Honest to god the nerve of some people
