Specific warnings you may like to know about!
-This is PG-13, but be warned. There will be . Mostly non-ual. (I said, mostly *coughs*)
-This is a modern au merman fic, so my world-building had to be especially crafty. Please ignore any plot holes. If I left them, it was probably intentional because, omg dealing with mermen in the modern world is kind of hard!
-It's mostly fluff and stuff, Baekhyun being thrown into deep water, both physically and metaphorically.
-There is SOME violence near the end, but nobody dies, so, phew!
Thank you, and I really hope you like the fic!
So excited to be nominated! Keep an eye out for the full nominations list and upcoming voting at Exo Fic Awards!
Foreword
Mermaids—those half-human, half-fish sirens of the sea—are legendary sea creatures chronicled in maritime cultures since time immemorial… The belief in mermaids may have arisen at the very dawn of our species. Magical female figures first appear in cave paintings in the late Paleolithic (Stone Age) period some 30,000 years ago, when modern humans gained dominion over the land and, presumably, began to sail the seas…
But are mermaids real? No evidence of aquatic humanoids has ever been found. Why, then, do they occupy the collective unconscious of nearly all seafaring peoples? That’s a question best left to historians, philosophers, and anthropologists.
