#anyway i am still sort of working out the selkie details cause also ireland has more of the merrow stuff

a weird/unexpected upside to not a single thompson having a middle name in Canon™ is that i can give flash and his sister both extremely irish middle names for this whimsical selkie AU

#leaning real hard into it #the notion here is also essentially ''harrison picked the first names and rosie picked the middle names'' #and that rosie is more connected to that be virtue of being you know. a selkie-like creature. from ireland. #i mean i think my notes i have it that harrison met her in ireland visiting family or something and brought her back to NYC #oh apparently i don't have that in my notes at all. #i could have sworn #not even in my phone #HUH #anyway i am still sort of working out the selkie details cause also ireland has more of the merrow stuff #BUT seal mermaids still show up in irish folklore and i mean--hell you have song of the sea and that's irish #so it's not unprecedented #but i am tempted to include some of the salmony details perhaps #i think red hair also counts toward the red cap #nadia rambles #arghwrites #idk what i'm doing with this au
