Well, I wish you the best in your gambit, Grey! :mermaid kiss:
That awkward moment when a kid asks you what you eat, and you say fish- and then realize that you had also just told them that fish were your friends only a few minutes ago. YOU EAT YOUR FRIENDS NOW, YOU MONSTER.
....One must think on one's fins at that point! It's sort of like that moment in Splash! when Madison starts chomping barehanded into that lobster and says, "That's how we eat lobster where I come from." (Hence why the dinglehopper is such a foreign object to merfolk....)
I would suggest being specific as to which species are sentient enough to be friends and which are more like livestock. HINT: Cuttlefish may look like little squid, but they are surprisingly intelligent (the beat lab rats in IQ-related tests, for example).
That's life in the ocean...someone is always someone else's lunch. :shark:
That awkward moment when you go to your friends pool to practice swimming with your monofin some more and the group of people in the hot tub ask what the hell you are doing and what the hell I'm using a monofin for:-P
That awkward moment which you turn into an even more awkward moment (albeit for them) by launching into a long explanation of why cetaceans' legs evolved into a single fluke for added power and that by this same principle monofins actually allow humans to swim faster than would normal swim fins...also you're a mermaid.
(Looking at Mermaid Dottie's floppy fluke again, it looks like its hugging her head! <3 )
Lol that's what I pretty much told them. I said I was a Mermaid in training lol :)
TAMW a child who knows and has seen you remove your tail, asks if you're a real mermaid because you go underwater for 'air'. I was actually going under water to get the hair out of my face, but I guess I was doing it a lot and he thought I needed to go underwater to breathe

^ That awkward moment when you sell 'being a real mermaid' better than you could have imagined?
That awkward moment when a kid asks you if you breathe water or air and you say that you breathe air like a dolphin. And then said kid asks "so if we held you under water would you die?" Aaaahhhhhh........ Ummmmmm...... Yes.

^^so morbid.
Memo to self: Don't let that kid near me in the water
TAMW you are talking to a friend about how you might possibly be performing in a traveling tank:
Her: so will you like, be in water?
Me: yes, I will be in a tank, there will be water.
Her: so will you need like, a separate tank to breathe in?
Me: *facepalms* no I rise to the surface for air..
Her: how?
Me: OH MY GOD

I just got this image of them thinking you are swimming in a water filled SCUBA oxygen tank and need another oxygen tank full of air next to your water filled tank to suck on. Honey I shrunk the mer?
awkward moment when

the universe knows and wont let you be anything else but a mermaid
That awkward moment when you're in a gay bar waiting for a drag show to start (I was drinking Sprite) and while you're amusing yourself with mermaid vids on your phone, a small crowd gathers behind you to watch over your shoulder, which you don't realize until someone asks you to replay one from earlier.
Lol Zicoxite that's super funny!
that awkward moment when you dream about swimming in your tail….but you don't even have a mono fin yet :cry:
