I forgot to tag my favorite merfolk media as requested in the original post.

Hrmm... I think I don't have a favorite merfolk book or movie, though?

I like some MerMay designs that are anthro-crustacean or anthro-jellyfish or whatever...or ones in which the merfolk are as large as humpback whales...

I like combining/confusing merfolk with sirens from Greek folklore and mythology, like that "they sing about cinnamon toast and then guess what your asexual pirate is dead" Tumblr heritage post.

My brain usually combines/confuses merfolk with selkies from Irish folklore and mythology. Thanks to Hans Christian Andersen, I mostly think of merfolk as "fairy wives" even though that specific fairy tale was told from her point of view so it should be labeled more a "human boyfriend" fairy tale. The Little Mermaid still reminds me of Melusine (a French fairy tale about a fairy woman named Melusine who was courted by and married a human man, and she had exactly one condition for their marriage that he refused to keep—that he never see her at the minute of noon. Of course he looks, and finds out that at noon exactly she becomes a giant serpent from the waist down. They basically divorce based on that, as I recall. She's merfolk-shaped.)

When the fairy wife's animal side is more aquatic, like a selkie or a swan fairy-wife, it's usually a more underhandedly-established cohabitation like the human "soon-to-be husband" stalked and watched and waited until these fairy women removed their seal-skin (selkies) or swan-skin (swan fairy-wives)—and then stole the skin of one of them to hide away at his cottage so that she can't join her sisters in fairyland anymore, instead she has to live with him and be human all the time. She has a baby with the human "husband", the baby grows up a little and explores their cottage, the toddler finds the skin and shows their mother this weird thing they found hidden away, and then the mother puts the skin back on and leaves the human family behind forever because she didn't even want to be here in the first place all those years ago. Now that she has her skin back she doesn't need to stay—she is outta here.

It's not a fairy tale that I love, not exactly, but versions of it does seem to keep popping up in European folklore so I'm thinking Hans Christian Andersen was subverting that: the aquatic fairy lady woos the human man, but they're from literally different realms so there's still all these mysterious conditions and rules.

The only gender-reversed version of this with a human woman and a shapeshifting fairy man that I know of is Tam Lin, who is not a mermaid. (I'm not forgetting the many variations of Beauty and the Beast, my brain puts those in a different filing cabinet in my mind.)

youtube

But otherwise, Ponyo or Song of the Sea ? In the latter, the human husband is not as big of a jerk as traditionally human husbands are to fairy wives.

youtube

what if I just. Matt/Peter/Jason triad mermaid au?

#There's also the legend of how Singapore was discovered that involved a Southeast Asian clockpunk submarine #and a half-woman half-fish that the explorer/prince was enamored with but apparently found the mer-lion more interesting #and named the next island after the lion.#I have a very foggy memory of this because I read it once or twice as a child and then not been reminded much since #despite always living the next few islands over.#Youtube

it’s always tam song appreciation hours for me, he’s rly great. Could you spare any headcanons? would it be alright if I shared some of mine?

anon. my dear anon. i am so sorry this took so long to get to and if you end up seeing this please send me your headcanons

anyway you asked so here you go:

he has a silver charm bracelet and he wears it all the time

(the mf probably pretends that it was made from some of the metal from the registry pendant that he “melted down”)

tam absolutely rocks skirts (the entire keeper crew does obviously but him especially)

his favorite skirt is knee length and it’s plaid and it’s top tier

oh and?? he really loves ties? makes him feel super powerful

(also. sneaking a bit of kam in here. yknow that one look that ppl have with a loose tie and rolled up sleeves and disheveled hair? tam shows up like that one day and keefe is absolutely GONE)

he stans taylor swift and txt shh let me project onto him

SECRETLY A HOPELESS ROMANTIC I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL

is asexual or on the acespec no i will not be accepting criticism

this is something he and linh have in common probably but his favorite trope is found family

yknow since he never really had a proper family he always wished for friends he was that close to

he likes animals but also he’s kinda terrified of them? like he’s scared they’ll bite him or smth

he’s pretty close w linh’s cat princess purryfins though

he can sing fairly well depending on the song, but the wrong song means he’s absolutely tone deaf

anyway um. that’s all i have rn but send me an ask if you’d like more

Keepers of the Chaos (Chapter 2)

Summary: Tam, Linh, Keefe, Biana, and Fitz are part of the tiny fandom for Keeper of the Chaos, and Tam and Linh's podcast convinces some of their other friends to watch it as well. The group finds themselves strangely invested in this show, where students at Tumblr High School who work together to write about an elf named Sophia, cause incomprehensible chaos, and fight their rival Pinterest High School.

Content warnings: Cursing, food, L*ura

Word count: 2005

Notes: Check out the beautiful theme song here!

(Read on AO3)

Sophie rolls her eyes as she opens the link her girlfriend sent her and puts in her earbuds. Biana has been incessantly pestering her to watch Keepers of the Chaos for so long that Sophie half wants to watch it just to shut her up, but she's always tired, or busy, and she doesn't really like watching new things. Still, Biana asked her very nicely to listen to this one podcast, and she looked very pretty when she asked, so Sophie's dumb omni ass couldn't refuse.

"Welcome to the Twins of the Chaos podcast," it begins after loading for an obnoxiously long time. The girl speaking has a pretty voice, Sophie has to admit- sweet and melodic and vaguely amused.

Maybe listening to this podcast won't be so bad if she can listen to that girl's voice the whole time.

But another person speaks, adding "Where some chaotic twins discuss our favorite show, Keepers of the Chaos," and his voice is not as pretty. She continues listening anyway, since Biana may or may not murder her if she stops.

The two voices- whose names are Linh and Tam, apparently- start talking about Keepers of the Chaos some more, giving Sophie a summary she's heard tons of times from Biana and Fitz- though the twins explain it slightly more coherently and with less... whatever the verbal equivalent of keyboard smashing is. Biana usually starts rambling about her favorite characters, like Lynn- not "Lynn the fandom mom," but the other Lynn- and Avery, or sometimes Nora and Darwin. Sophie doesn't understand any of those names and loses track of the conversation as soon as it involves too many unfamiliar names.

But Tam and Linh are making more sense, at least for the most part, until they start mentioning specific couples. The conversation gets again comprehensive soon enough, though, and Sophie does smile at the name "The Dark Duck."

By the end, when Tam says "half of them wearing sleeping masks with teal eyes painted on and the other half watching the chaos with mild amusement," Sophie is curious enough to be mildly intrigued. She listens to their outro music, and before she can regret it, types out a text message to Biana.

Sophie: fine

Sophie: ill watch it

Biana responds instantly with an array of heart emojis. Sophie blushes.

Biana: can i come over and watch with u?

Sophie: ok!

Sophie: moms making mallowmelt

Sophie: but u cant have any

Biana: >:(

Biana: hope u like being single then

Sophie: fine u can have some mallowmelt

Biana: yayyyy!

Biana: ily

Sophie: ilyt

Sophie: now lets watch ur stupid show

Biana: on my way!!!

Sophie smiles, shaking her head. She's a little annoyed, but fine, it sounds interesting enough from the podcast. And what else would she be doing? Studying? Having US history as an alternative would make even the most horrible of shows seem good. She stuffs her textbooks into her backpack and shoves some things out of the way so her room looks a bit neater before rushing downstairs. The mallowmelt smells good enough to make her mouth water.

"Mmm..." she sighs, barely taking time to let it cool off before taking a large bite. "That's so good. Thanks, Mom."

Edaline smiles. "You're welcome. Just save some for your father and I."

"Fine, fine. I have to share with Biana, anyway." Sophie huffs and takes another bite. "She's coming over, is that alright? We're going to watch a show together."

"Sure, just make sure to get your homework done."

Sophie rolls her eyes. "Fine."

"And keep the door open!" Grady calls. Edaline laughs as Sophie's face flames.

"I'm going back to my room," she grumbles, taking a plate of mallowmelt with her and walking up the stairs. She manages not to trip over her own feet and drop the mallowmelt, thankfully, as she grabs her laptop and opens Netflix. Sighing, she searches for Keepers of the Chaos and clicks on the show that comes up before waiting for Biana to arrive.

The doorbell rings soon, and Sophie carefully sets down her laptop and her plate on her bed before rushing down the stairs. Panting slightly, she opens the door for her girlfriend. Biana's wearing a t-shirt with the Amsterdam flag on it. Sophie has no idea why. Maybe Biana likes the country? Her girlfriend is pretty weird. "Come on in," she says, realizing she's been staring. In her defense, Biana is pretty and Sophie is very omni.

"Ready to go watch Keepers of the Chaos?" Biana asks. She bounces on her toes slightly.

"Alright," says Sophie. "I set it up on my laptop in my room."

"Awesome! You'll love it."

Sophie follows Biana up the stairs and into her room. They sit on the bed together, Sophie leaning against the wall and Biana leaning against Sophie, and Biana presses play. Somber kazoos begin playing in the background as the theme song starts.

We're on the edge of chaos

No one is straight

We're making fanart

Because L*ura we hate

And we're gonna have teal eyes in the end!

We must be weird, and we must be gay

(We must be gay!)

We will find every bit of sanity that we have

And give it all to Lynn

Ohhhh

We must be gay!

Biana dances a little along with the song, and Sophie can't help but smile. A curvy, round-faced person with short dark hair and colorful earrings plays a few notes on the piano, and then a KEEPERS OF THE CHAOS logo flashes across the screen. Then, a group of students sit in a classroom.

"Shai! Tater! Lynn! You three finally got together?" says the same person who just played piano, gesturing to a redhaed wearing a Sappho lesbian flag cape. She's holding the fingerless-gloved hand of a lanky person with brightly colored hair, and they're holding hands with a tall girl who has chin length brown hair. The rest of the class applauds the fiancees before returning to their own conversations.

"Yep! Thanks, Ink," says Tater.

Ink smiles at them and turns to a person with light brown skin and golden hoop earrings partially covered by long dark hair. "Hi, Kiri, how was your break?"

"Good! Here's to a good 2021?" Kiri turns to the person next to them. "How about you, Ref?"

Ref has short brown hair and red glasses. "Yeah, my break was dOPE," she says, leaving everyone to wonder how he did that with their voice. "oH, and happy belated Hanukkah to Shai!"

"Thanks, you too. And guess what! I didn't set my hair on fire this year!"

A short guy with strawberry blonde hair looks concerned. "Um. Congratulations?"

"Thanks, Sam!"

Sophie looks away from the screen and at Biana. "There are a lot of characters..." she mutters.

"Yeah, but you get to know them well enough eventually," says Biana. "Now shh, let's keep watching!"

A lot of other characters are introduced in various conversations, and Sophie's brain has a hard time keeping track of them all. She does remember Tara, a curvy, bored-looking girl with long sideswept bangs, and Blue, a bisexual who may or may not be an arsonist. She doesn't know either of their personalities very well yet, but she likes them so far. Lucat, a pale, blue haired asexual, who later joins the Hanukkah conversation, also seems cool.

Once quite a bit of introductions are done- Sophie lost count at around twenty something- are over, an announcement comes over the school's loudspeakers.

"Welcome back, Tumblr High School!" announces a voice. "I hope you all had a good break. Now, the Tumblr staff have an important announcement for you all. High schools in this county, like ours, Pinterest High School, and Instagram High School, will be holding a competition. All members of the winning team will receive a scholarship to AO3 college. If you are interested, meet in room 69 after school. Now, onto other announcements..."

Somber kazoos play again as the principal's droning voice fades into the background. A montage of the previously introduced characters wishing they could go to AO3 college moves across the screen. After a few minutes of them zooming through school and talking about how fucking boring it is, all of them gather in the room (some of them with more jokes than others) to discuss the competition.

A blonde woman welcomes them into the room. They wait a while to make sure no one else will arrive, but once everyone is there, the woman clears her throat. "Hello, everyone! I'm glad you're interested in joining the competition. My name is Shannon Messenger, and I'm in charge of admissions at AO3 College. My coworker L*ura and I designed this competition."

Sophie gasps and looks at Biana. "L*ura? But isn't that the person they hate? They said that in the intro!" Biana smiles at her, and she blushes as she realizes that she's kind of... maybe... invested in the show now. She decides she'll endure the "I told you so"s later and looks back at the show, trying to telepathically tell the characters not to trust this L*ura person... and perhaps not Shannon either. It's too early to tell whether Shannon will be an antagonist or not.

"All of you will be working as a team to write a story together. The main premise is that a twelve year old girl named Sophia is a telepath, but she can't tell anyone her secret. Then, she meets a teal-eyed boy named Finn, and he tells her that she's an elf. She travels back to the elf world with him, where she struggles a bit at the elf school Firefox, makes friends with some other elves, learns that she is an illegal creation of a rebel group called the Dark Duck, and another rebel group- the Rarelynoticed- tries to kidnap and kill Sophia and her friend Deck. There are other details to be included into the story, which will be given out to the participants as a packet. The object of this competition is not to determine your ability at coming up with story ideas, but your ability to work in groups and execute well developed ideas. Does anyone have any questions?"

Someone raises their hand- a short, tanned girl. "Lynn?" prompts the principal.

"Did you say the rebel group was named the Dark Duck?"

"And the Rarelynoticed?" adds another person, with rectangular glasses and a red bracelet.

"Raise your hand before speaking, Auran," scolds the principal. "But yes, those are the names."

"Alright then," Auran mutters.

"Unless anyone else has questions, we'll be sending out sign up forms for everyone interested, and then we will distribute the information packets about your story. You can talk to each other and start planning."

No one else has questions, so once they've all filled out the sign up form, they gather in small groups and flip through the packets, making sarcastic comments or mocking names ("'Rarelynoticed' though-" a stylish hijabi named Raiin sighs as they come across a page of information about the group) as they try to form some semblance of a plan. Once they all agree that they've made a lot of progress, they make plans to meet up again soon and walk back home.

Unbeknownst to them, a pair of ominous teal eyes watch from above.

Somber kazoos play once again, and the credits roll.

"So, what'd you think?" Biana asks as Sophie closes her laptop.

Rather inaudibly, Sophie mumbles "It was good."

"What was that?"

"It was good! I liked it!"

Biana grins. "I told you so." She leans over and kisses Sophie on the cheek. "Thanks for watching it. I have to go do some homework, awesome seeing you!" As she walks out, Sophie hears her singing under her breath. "We must be gay..."

Languages: Tam has the Echo so technically they understand all languages. They also don’t have a great understanding of what the Echo is, and they had not left the Viera homelands before manifesting it, so they just kinda think everyone vibes with the way they speak and haven’t thought too much about it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Relationship Status: single/ partnered / married / widowed / open relationship / divorced / not ready for dating yet / it’s complicated

Tam has had a lot of partners in the past but never been in love with any of them. They are vaguely wanting to find Lenje out there somewhere, but not necessarily for a romantic relationship. Though also not-not necessarily either.

A few songs that remind you of them:

We Will All Be Changed - Seryn

Character Profile: Athena

Athena from The Circular Centuries

Excerpt

(Athena’s perspective)

Athena looked up from her file as she heard someone coming into her office. Zuri walked in, a big bright smile stretched across her face. So much emotion in that girl’s face. Athena could never understand how a person could possibly be so expressive without feeling uncomfortably naked. To her it had always seemed much, much too intimate to expose your deepest feelings to everyone around you. But what she thought about it did not matter. This was the human way. It would be in her best interest to acclimatize herself to it.

Basic Info

Name: Athena

Age: 321

Ethnicity: Vaeltaja

Gender: Woman

Sexual Orientation: Heteroromantic Asexual

Home Planet: Vaeltaja

Occupation: Leader of an IAPP team

Current Home: Constantly moving around for missions

Plot Info

Situation: Leading a team that's trying to take down powerful rulers and organizations that cause suffering throughout the universe. She's also trying to stop the Woman, a dictator who tried to drive Athena's species to extinction, from hurting anyone else, especially her brother, Michael. As well, she’s forced to confront her desire for friendship and emotional intimacy that she has tried to deny because of the repressive culture she comes from

Motivation: Wants to reduce systemic suffering around the universe, wants to keep the people she loves safe, wants to figure out how to move past her toxic childhood

Personality and Qualities

Greatest Strengths: Competent, meticulous, organized, intelligent, compassionate

Biggest Issues: Represses emotions, conformist, obsessive, snobby, socially awkward

Greatest Fear: That the people on her team will die because of her negligence or lack of preparation, that she will leave the universe worse than she found it and that she will be a disappointment

Talents/Skills: Very precise telekinesis, incredible memory, mental manipulation, leadership, problem-solving

Family

Brother: Michael

Brother (estranged): Set

Sister-in-Law: Ava Lorien

Friends

Mentor: Lyloken

Childhood friend: Teio

Close friend: Tess Lorien

Close friend: Isaiah Williams

Close friend: Zuri Williams

Honorary nephew: Andy Williams

Interests and Lifestyle

Finances: Comfortable

Education: Vaeltaja boarding school and then studying under Lyloken

Religion: Raleumi (the dominant religion of the Vaeltaja)

Interests/Hobbies: Her job, doing paperwork, reading, solving logic puzzles, cooking (but she's bad at it)

Appearance

Height: 5'10

Body Type: Slim and muscular

Skin Tone: Medium brown

Eye Colour: Dark brown

Hair Colour: Black
