I was thinking a bout where my mermaid persona would live and i got to wondering where other mermaids decided to make their homes.

calypso lives in a mangrove forest in a little cave under water made my the roots of the mangrove trees above water. she share his home with an older brother and spend his days either swimming in the shallow waters of the mangroves or venturing out to the deep see to hunt for squid and small shrimp and lobsters. calypso doesn't like monkeys and can often be found arguing with the ones that live in the trees above his home as they are loud and messy and constantly splashing around.

so where give you mermaids home and cute short little story about a day in the life of your mer

Mermaid Lanai lives in a sheltered cove, there is a large kelp forest and it is plentiful with sea life (some seals, dolphins and the migrating whale mothers and calves who take shelter in the cove to rest) . She lives with her rescued Albino orca friend- Zeus. Her house is an undersea cave which she made her home after leaving her father's kingdom, she spends some days in the shallows, collecting shells and other things or looking for anything she can use for her "home". Sometimes she spends her day resting on the sand. Together with Zeus they hunt fish and other sea creatures, and sometimes they play in the waves. They are however very wary of the drop off because of the Unusualy large great white which lives there.

On the far end of Lanai’s cove, there is a Marine Animal Rescue Center in which Lanai knows very well. The main caretaker there, Mike is one Lanai has grown fond of. She watches him and has seen him help her finned friends (dolphins & seals) before, though he does spend some time in Lanai's cove (walking around or sitting in the sand watching whales/dolphins) he hasn't made any contact with Lanai, though he has seen her tail, he shrugs it off to a “passing whale/dolphin”. At the rescue center there is an old dolphin who lives there as a resident, he and Lanai talk about many things including the humans, which in turn has made her much more curious of them.

**For a visual of the sheltered cove Lanai and Zeus live in, i give you the sheltered cove in puerto rico, taken by me:

Princess Kae-Leah

Kae-Leah is princess of Northern Pacifica, an underwater kingdom located in the cool waters right off the coast of the Pacific Northwest. She lives in a beautiful underwater palace, protected by handsome merman guards. While she is for the most part careful not to be spotted by humans, she likes to lounge on the many rocks along the beach, whale-watching and combing her wavy brownette tresses. She pines away for the prince of Southern Pacific, who gave her the floral lei she usually wears around her neck.

Gem Stone, though usually a very friendly mermaid, has had recent expirences that make her doubt her home's safety. With good reason too, it went up in flames. Scared by the fire, yet entranced by it as well, she is much more cautios around humans because they set the fire. She has yet to convince herself to find a new home and is often swimming from place to place, laying down her head in protected areas of beaches for the night but then leaving early the next morning. The expirements of being homeless and almost burnt herself has turned a fairly kind mermaid into a darker one. She will be the first one to dive as soon as any appearance of humans starts. She is also quicker to cause trouble and is much easily irritated. She resents the humans for starting the fire which destroyed her home and ultimately her trust with them. She also has a horrible fear of flames. If she's been swimming all day and sees a beach, if there's a small campfire, she'll keep swimming for a few miles at least before stopping to rest. Every time she smells her slightly crisp hair, her anger for the humans grow. She no longer believes in trust and kindness and feeling at home. Even so, she keeps her anger to herself and does her best to not take it out on others, not that she's doing a good job of that but she is trying.

Amethyst would live in an underwater cavern, which would be beautifully lit in the daytime :)

draggersprez swims in the warm waters off the coast of a beach deamed unfit to swim in because of its sharks and poisonous octopi. She lives in an underwater cave though,since she can't breath underwater, she sleeps in the cave. She spends most of her time practicing swimming or watching the humans sail past in their yachts and small canoes. She's so calm that at times she doesnt seem to care about anything which can lead humans who see her to believe that she meant to be seen and doesnt really care if they circulate stories.
