Leviathantale MerMay 2021 - Day 30: Mermaid’s Kiss

Even after Kelp returns to land, he longs for the sea, the Deep, and the Shiver.

(Continuation of Day 10: Kelp & Day 23: Grotto)

Even after his return to land, Kelp longs for the sea. He longs to return to its depth and return to the deep where it felt so right. It makes him guilty whenever he thinks about it since the last time he disappeared on his family and friends, it sent them all into a panic. But the guilt doesn’t make the longing disappear. It stays.

Horror still visits his dock. The Great White takes care not to mention what happened on the beach and in the Deep, much to Kelp’s disappointment. He doesn’t let it show. He smiles and pretends along with his friend, afraid of breaking their normalcy and making things awkward.

Dust doesn’t come with him anymore. Kelp asks after the quiet and reserved Whitetip, but Horror always has excuses for why his shivermate couldn’t come.

“Dust wants to see you. He really does,” Horror assures Kelp every time. He sounds earnest, at least. “He’s just not feeling too well.”

“Did he regret it?” Kelp doesn’t ask. “When the heat broke and the eggs were laid, did he regret what he said to me? What we did?”

“I hope he feels better. Tell that to Dust for me please.”

As the months roll by, the longing gets worse and worse. Kelp’s mind drifts to memories of his time in the Deep. Classic notices, of course. He looks sadder and sadder whenever he sees the look on Kelp’s face. “Buddy, sometimes, I feel like you’re not here anymore.”

Kelp isn’t. By the time an entire year rolls around, he’s made his decision. After an emotional phone call with his little brother and a conversation with Classic, Kelp quits his job and leaves his house keys to his friend. He gives away some things and wraps things up. In the end, there’s only him and his fishing boat.

Kelp sets out to the ocean. He goes out farther than he’s ever gone before. He goes to where all ships sink and never return.

“Kelp?”

Kelp stops mid-row and stares at Dust. The mershark floats uncertainly near the side of Kelp’s boat. Slowly, Kelp smiles at Dust. “Hey there. Long time no see.”

It’s like a breath of relief, seeing Dust again. The Whitetip mershark flushes grey at the sight of the smile and hides into his hoodie. Kelp’s hands twitch with the instinctive urge to reach out and cup Dust’s cheeks. Instead, he sets aside his paddles.

"Where's Horror?"

Dust shifts uncomfortably. "It's clutching season and he doesn't want to be careless again. Sorry that he couldn't come to visit."

"And you?" Kelp gently prods. "Are you feeling better? I haven't seen you for a very long time, Dust. I missed you."

Dust, normally so impassive and apathetic, looks so vulnerable.

"Me too. I missed you too," his voice breaks. "But it wouldn't have been safe for you if I came. Horror agreed. I wasn't in my right - I wanted to keep - I wished -" Dust stops and takes a breath. Kelp waits patiently for the mershark to gather the right words, feeling as if he's at the edge of something important. "I couldn't forget the sight of you with us...heavy with Horror's clutch...happy. It made me want to keep you forever."

Kelp shivers. "I couldn't forget either. I was so happy there."

Dust floats closer until he’s close enough for Kelp to touch. He looks at Kelp with such longing but stops himself at the last second and shakes his head. “You’re too far out, Kelp. It’s too dangerous. I’ll help you back to your island.”

“No.” Kelp does reach out to touch Dust this time. He cups the side of his face and runs a soft thumb over his cheekbone. The mershark outs out a shuddering sigh at the contact and leans into it. “No, I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be.”

“But your life on the Surface…”

“I’ve said my goodbyes and closed that part of my life. I want to spend the rest of my life with you and Horror and the Shiver…if all of you will have me.”

Dust lets out the most adorable chirp at Kelp’s declaration, eyelights blown wide. “You choose us? Really?”

“Yeah. I choose you.”

Dust pushes himself up at the side of the boat and captures Kelp into a kiss. Giddy and happy, Kelp returns it and lets the Dust slowly pull him down into the water. Down, down, down they go into the Deep where the rest of the Shiver would happily welcome Kelp home.

The waves eventually push Kelp’s boat back to the island and its shore. It remains empty.

ATTACKS YOU WITH HEADCANON (idea?)

When Horror and Dust go to Farmtale for the first time for an extended period, Horror’s body and its, more or less, lack of magic doesn’t notice the change. It’s just nice and a healthier environment ✨

But Dust and his overreactive magic is not used to this new environment, not being enclosed and such, and he gets sick for a while :))

Horror is probably fretting over it because they PROBABLY don’t get sick very often, and Saejun is just a sweetheart and helps take care of them💔✨🌸

(do what you will with that i’m in a harass a mutual for no reason mood)

ur so right also horrors making soup

have fun with these in the meanwhile

Nightmare -> Moonshine (korean: 밀주/Milju, named by Ttalgi)

eats negativity, revels in negativity, spreads negativity for survival, he is functionally immortal. despite being a shapeshifter, regeneration is especially difficult for him.

Error (still Error, doesnt need a code name <- couldve been Codex though)

hunts down anomalies, allows them to live for entertainment. only destroys aus when he gets bored of them. his destruction involves reading and deleting code.

Saejun -> Ttalgi (korean: 딸기/Strawberry, named by Moonshine)

strongest healer so far, extends to his crops. being near the fields can also regenerate you. doesn't have good offensive magic, but packs a mean punch.

Killer -> Misery (nickname: seri, named by Moonshine)

decent at fighting, has at least two knives on his person at all times. he's very perceptive, predicts opponents' moves instead of reacting. cannot use blue magic or karmic retribution.

Dust -> Ash (korean: 유골/yugol, named himself)

strong magic, highly effective blue magic, quicker karmic retribution. bones can be sharp, or not. does not fight unless absolutely necessary (killing the human).

Horror -> Sanguis (nickname: ver/vermillion, latin: blood, named himself)

retains his blue magic and karmic retribution, but can only use magic at huge bursts for short amounts of time, uncontrollable. prefers to get up close and hit hard.

Cross -> Crux (latin: torture instrument/crucifix, named himself)

has full control of the body, unable to control overwrite very well. capable of decent healing magic. best at fighting, both in terms of magic and melee. does not need weapons.
