You were swimming around one day, as you would as a mermaid. You were a small whale shark type mermaid, so your tail was blue and spotted. You were taking a break at a coral reef when you saw a bright red tail. A big one. Upon swimming closer, you realized that there was a merman also resting on the coral. He was beefy. But he was also missing his left arm. And there were... scars over his left eye.

He noticed you, and smiled.

"Hey there. You're kinda small to be swimmin' around in these waters."
