So....my stupid ass was up at 12 in the morning and was thinking:

Imagine these girls being friends as adults?

And yes, I am legitimately serious about this AU, OK. This is what happens when I think too much and consider everything in a fictional relationship.

So, where to start? Well, I guess we see what happened fictionally after S1, S2, and S3.

Annabelle Stephenson as Miriam Kent

Miriam Kent: Mayor's daughter, competitive and attention seeker. Miriam just gave up on Zane and that was it. If Zane wanted to chase a loner like Rikki and hang out with her stupid friends, then that's his choice...but then again, can say friends be "stupid" when they're mermaids with magic powers? Yeah, years with video blackmail she managed to preserve through upgraded phones (seriously, who locks someone in a house and forgets windows is overlooking the pool!?) and a near-death experience with being frozen alive (That's the only conclusion she could come up with) made her more prone to keep away and saving Zane from them (though she's sure he was a victim as well when she thinks to that time he was severely sunburnt!). She eventually graduated and traveled to Paris to tag along to fulfill her dream to be a fashion designer. But she struggled, being a small fish in a big pond, and felt envious as Tiffany moved ahead as a model. They fought and suddenly, Miriam was alone. The experience somewhat humbled her (but she remained a bitch). She ended up catching up and becoming an accomplished designer graduate and returned home to the Gold Coast after a few more years in France. Feeling inspired after returning home, she created a clothing line which she labels Land B4 Seas (a jab and revealed bitterness to being ignored for a mermaid) and starts an online boutique. Later on, a friend invited her to a gallery opening for a popular artist, but not finding the artist impressive. She ends up walking into a different gallery opening and comes across beautiful underwater artwork that inspires her& buys against her better judgment. She asks to meet the artist, who reveals her name to be Charlotte...

Brittany Byrnes as Charlotte Watsford

Charlotte Watsford: Artist, daughter, and second-generation failed mermaid. After what happened in the Gold Coast, it was safe to say she developed low self-esteem and morale for herself and went to therapy...and never fully recovered. Transferring school and graduating someplace else, she did try to avoid anything from her past. Mermaid merchandise, handmade jewelry, blonds with blue eyes? She veered from. It was a miracle that she began painting again. Taking a job as a part-time art teacher while working as a street artist. Eventually, she felt it was time to sell her older artwork for her mermaid days and found herself recognized by an art collector passing by and fallen in love with her underwater work. From there, she not only grew with her craft, but Charlotte started doing small art galleries. She enjoyed using her other (land) subjects, but the collector, her agent, and curator agreed that her best works were the underwater. So lifelike, it was as if she'd swam deeper even experienced divers can go yet so personal that it spoke to another's sense of personal depth. By inconvenience, Charlotte's already small gallery opening was booked with a Mother's, so the rented space was shared (and it didn't help that the opposing artist was more popular), but it was by chance that a wondering fashion designer invited to the opposing gallery wandered into hers and brought all her underwater artwork and introduced herself as Miriam Kent...

Alice Hunter as Tiffany Brown

Tiffany Brown: Former underappreciated sidekick to business partner and model. Tiffany grew up with Miriam on an equal footing, but it was her shy demeanor that caused the unbalance as they got older. Tiffany followed Miriam to Paris, which was the beginning of the end of their friendship. Tiffany flourished as a budding model while Miriam struggled as a design student, and an ugly fight ensued and they parted ways. Tiffany came back to the Gold Coast to study business (the ability to read a contract is a powerful tool) and started investing in small businesses while she modeled at an agency. It was during a shoot that one of the models bailed and endangered to be scrapped for good when she just picked a random girl off the street, who turned out to be, just, an ethereal beauty! After explaning the situation and borderline begging, the girl stepped in for the shoot with a strange request not to do anything involving water. After the shoot, Tiffany was grateful for her help and asked to pay her back. She gave her her number for lunch on a piece of paper and signed it, Bella H. ...

Indiana Evans as Isabella "Bella" Hartley

Bella Hartley: Former singer, mermaid, gelatin dessert makerand reclusive baby of the group. After saving the world from a comet, Bella thought keeping her friendship and relationship after high school would be easy. But nothing is rarely easy. For starters, a girl named Emma Gilbert enters (or re-entered, according to Lewis) the picture, watching the girls foregoing their crystals, learning how long the girls were mermaids and found herself essentially pushed out. She tried to find solace in Will but found out he was cheating on her and just...couldn't find it in herself to forgive him. And he took the breakup badly. Like "restraining order" badly. This led to Bella living a somewhat isolated life when she decided to move from the coast. However, she's found a strange side hustle using her powers to create gelatin desserts with Agar Agar Powder (seaweed) which she makes and sells out of her home. She hadn't talked to any of the girls or guys since. One day, she was out buying ingredients when grabbed off the street and asked to be a stand-in model. The girl asked her seemed desperate and Bella didn't see the harm in helping her, just as long as she wasn't involved in anything with water. The shoot was really fun and when the model, who formally introduced herself as Tiffany, asked how she could repay her, and to her own surprise, Bella agreed to lunch...

How they become friends:

Miriam flat out asks Charlotte to work under her as a designer. While both careers are technically art, Charlotte's resistant. So, she takes her out to eat after the gallery and got drunk bonding over boys not wanting them, failed friendships, and the lowered self-esteem they fought through. Charlotte ended up saying yes during the hangover the next morning.

Bella and Tiffany had lunch together and bonded over being underappreciated and unimportant in their friendships and relationships. Bella brought one of her gelatine desserts to the table and with one taste, Tiffany was already offering to invest in her side business.

Miriam and Tiffany ended up meeting again somewhere down the road when Miriam had created a lot of clothes that needed models in them and truly didn't expect the "T. Brown" she hired to be Tiffany. Initially awkward, Miriam powered through it and impressed Tiffany with her plans, who then impressed her with her understanding of business and gave her advice on how to grow if she planned on opening a boutique. The encounter would be the beginning of a bridge rebuilding between them.

Tiffany met Charlotte during the shoot and was impressed that her artwork was the inspiration behind Miriam's designs. Charlotte claims she's just a painter who's learning as she goes along but Miriam is a huge help. She shows Tiffany one of her paintings and Tiffany is quick to buy one.

That painting she brought from Charlotte ended up proudly in Tiffany's home and when Bella came over, she instantly recognized the artwork that could only match the insight of a mermaid. She wanted to meet the painter behind the painting and Tiffany just arranged a breakfast meeting for all four women. Meeting Charlotte, she easily doesn't expect her to be one, having not to drink from a straw and spilled a drink on herself. But the same can't be said for Bella, who gets hit with the drink and runs and...Charlotte follows and THAT'S how the two find out they share a past with a familiar group of friends.

Meanwhile, Miriam (who knows the signs) is surprised that Bella might be a mermaid but has no idea why Charlotte followed after her...or she does and doesn't want to admit it. She won't deny it: Bella's beautiful and if she wasn't already Bisexual, she would turn for her. However, she sees a bit of a loner attitude, which is a far cry from what Tiffany calls her ("the embodiment of living sunshine") but part of her couldn't help but be intrigued by the crystal around her neck. Maybe it's the designer in her, but she's never seen a gem like that before. Tiffany is a bit worried about how long the girls have been home, but Miriam stops her, saying Charlotte likely has her talking and will be out sooner than expected. It's an hour later when they return, Bella completely shamefaced, but apologizing for taking so long and blaming part of it on a conversation. As an ice breaker, Charlotte asked where they all went to school and it shocked them when they all realize they were all students at South Coast High, just missing each other shy of a few years and classes. Tiffany asks how she could miss both girls, but to answer that is a bit painful (especially because it regards being a mermaid and saving the world). Charlotte just calls it preoccupations and rotten luck, which Miriam is happy to drink to that. But when Tiffany starts talking and casually name drops Lewis, which catches Bella off-guard on how she knows him, which raises the question of how Bella knows him and Miriam just starts day drinking early because this breakfast was no longer just about chance coincidences.

So....my stupid ass was up at 12 in the morning and was thinking:

And yes, I am legitimately serious about this AU, OK. This is what happens when I think too much and consider everything in a fictional rela

Things I think about:

• Miriam goes by "Mira K." Or "Mira" now.

• Charlotte is shocked to know Miriam already knows about mermaids and who they are.

• Miriam was shocked to find out Charlotte was a mermaid and angry as to how it all started

• (She ends up wishing she'd been more stealthy stealing that locket during that sleepover)

• Charlotte finds it hysterical when she learns why Miriam named her brand, Land B4 Seas

• Land B4 Seas becomes very popular over time and unknowingly, Kim Sertori becomes obsessed with Miriam's designs and wants to mentor under her.

• Back then (referring to 1x02), Miriam did heavily consider using the video of Cleo as a mermaid and Rikki's powers as collateral blackmail. But despite multiple opportunities, including being frozen alive, she decided to save it for a future favor.

• All the girls more or less have Bi panic hearing Bella sing for the first time.

• When Tiffany found out Bella once lived in Ireland, she said her beauty must come from being a Selkie, which caused Bella to choke on her drink because of how close it was to the actual truth.

• Bella outs herself to the girls and the only one surprised is Tiffany.

• Tiffany almost found out by accident prior

• None of the girls are a fan of Will Benjamin (a cheap, knock-off, dollar store Chris Hemsworth - Miriam)

• Miriam owns a licensed gun and knows how to shoot.

• Meaning if Will pokes his head around Bella again, she will use it.

• Charlotte becomes more of a part of Miriam's career when she introduces some of her handcrafted jewelry made from sea glass found on the beach, which inspires Miriam to start a jewelry line.

• Bella is encouraged to go into the model business by Tiffany

• Tiffany finds herself catching feeling for Miriam and doesn't know how to process it

• Miriam finds herself back in town and runs into an old flame, Zane Bennett

• Charlotte finds herself meeting Lewis under mysterious circumstances

• Miriam encourages Charlotte to get her tail back (because they made her the Bad Guy/no one's stopping her/her art is lacking and Miriam needs inspiration)

• A brush with paranoia leads Bella to take self-defense classes with a no-nonsense trainer

• Miriam finds herself questioning herself after a photoshoot with Tiffany

• When Land B4 Seas takes off enough that Miriam can open her boutique, she gets a surprising offer.

• Bella finds herself falling for her trainer and reuniting with her ex.

• Charlotte considers if she could handle being a mermaid once more.

• Tiffany and Miriam finally confess to one another.

• The girls band together when Bella finds herself in a dangerous situation.

(Actually, looking at this list, these might as well be episodes or chapters in a fanfic that I may never write!)
