They have never been seen, with the exception of tv, all that romantic...but manipulative and dangerous.<br />I'm glad you got it. I constantly worry that I'm making them too hard, but I had a set of terms I refused to use (sailor, love, foam, water, and anything to do with sea life)<br />I purposely talked about walking on land and it being forbidden but ... never mentioned water other than tears. I thought the drowning part was clever.DesaraeVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06354550301110673337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3901891382615045850.post-46612201175936994722015-02-01T00:28:12.518-06:002015-02-01T00:28:12.518-06:00Asian people have other versions of My little merm...Asian people have other versions of My little mermaid that are equally as grimm as the original versions and even the grimm fairy tales. Either way until disney they where creatures to fear not to day dream about having sex with. I also like some of the recent australian netflix tv series.

Then the sea witch gave her a second choice, after he found another princess. She could kill him and she would live or she would turn to foam. Anther version gives her the option to kill him or spend 300 years trying to redeem herself.

The tears kept throwing me, so I started thinking about comic book characters and mythical creatures that shapeshifted... Broadening the idea of movement. Still can't connect the tears, so figured I'd read a little deeper!!!<br />Some mermaids where known to cry as they kissed and drowned their victims.
