SKY MERMAY 2023.

W1: BUTTERFLY W2: CRAB W3: JELLYFISH W4: KRILL W5: MANTA

Last year, I hosted a Sky-themed MerMay challenge on Instagram! I designed these characters as my own entries for it, but due to interest/energy issues (worsened by Dopamine Jail at the time), I unfortunately had to leave it unfinished. Since then, I've been yearning to show off these lovely characters, as there was a lot of joy designing them out in my old backyard. So I made this doodle with some rough marker rendering.

They now have a place within the Sky Kingdom, as a semi-secret society of Light Children who switch between capes and mermaid tails. Sort of like the hypogrypths in My Little Pony G4! They all worship ASEA, the goddess of ABZU whom Tapushea was split from, which is how they switch between air and water.

[creativepromptsforwriting]

Hi sorry I sent my last ask to early, I want to write about a couple where one of them is a mermaid and the other gets turned into a mermaid in a more modern setting but I’m blanking on ideas for it. Any suggestions?

Hi :)

No problem. I have never thought about someone getting turned into a mermaid. So I'll try to come up with some ideas for you.

Turning into a Mermaid Prompts

The human is an environmental activist trying to clean the ocean. Their fight for a cleaner place for everything that lives in the ocean doesn't go unnoticed by the mermaids and they want to show their appreciation and invite them into their world.

A boat gets into trouble on the open sea. When the human falls overboard they think it's over for them, because they can't swim. But suddenly they can breathe under water and they realize that they are not alone.

Their grandmother gave them a locket before she mysteriously left the family. After one too many fights with their parents they run away to their grandmother's favourite place - the ocean. There they find some people very interested in the locket they have.

It's a common practice for mermaids to spend one year on land before returning to the sea forever. It's also common that they fall in love with humans and want to bring them with them.

The human finds a shell on the beach that feels almost alive. When they go into the water to clean it, they fall over, suddenly missing their feet and legs.

Being in love with a mermaid is like a long distance relationship and they don't want to spend another day separated from each other anymore. So they have to come up with a plan to live with each other.

Hope you like them!

[whumpninja]

So I don’t know if anyone else likes doing mer whump for Mermay, but I definitely do. This year, I decided to check out the Mermay 2024 prompts and use them to inspire my writing!

No offense/hate at all to the creators of Mermay and the people who participate, but…from a whump standpoint, the official prompts are useless. What am I meant to do with “fart” and “toe beans?” Do mers even have toes? Granted, Mermay isn’t supposed to be for whumpers, so I can understand why the prompts don’t exactly cater to us.

But I decided that they should. So here’s my take on Mermay- For Whumpers!

A few things- this is not an official event, I won’t be making a blog for it/reblogging everything/etc., I just don’t have the brain space to do that right now. This is just a prompt list meant to inspire some fun mer whump during what’s left of May. But please, if you use these prompts this month, tag me in what you make, I wanna see it!

Also, May is already a week in, so I set the prompts to start tomorrow. Interpret the prompts whatever way you want; many of them are intentionally vague on purpose! The ones for weekdays are simple and short, with multiple options; the weekend prompts are a little more involved. But also, this isn’t an event, there’s no completionist reward- feel free to pick and choose your prompts, skip around, mix them together, whatever your heart desires!

Content warning: this is a whump-focused prompt list. Some prompts are darker than others, which is also why the weekday prompts have more than one option. Please tread carefully!

Mermaids and Mermen

Happy Mermay!

1. Scientist works at a rehabilitation facility for injured cryptids and creatures. They’re newest addition to the family is a mer, something they’ve never seen at the facility before.

2. The Pirate Captain has always seen mers as pests. If they’re not trying to drown his men, they’re damaging the ship’s hull or throwing them off course. His policy has always been cannon fire or harpoons, but everything changes when he’s is forced overboard by a mutinous crew in the middle of pod of mermaid.

3. Merperson has made a life for themself as a human in the west, far away from the sea that holds the secret of their true form. But when a potion shipment involving sea water prompts them to transform, they must do their best to conceal the truth from the wild west’s many cutthroats and opportunists while searching for a new spell to get their legs back.

4. It’s a royal alliance like any other, a prince and princess arranged in marriage for the peace and good of their kingdoms. Except one is a human and the other a merperson. As the Mer is the heir to the throne, it’s obvious it should be the human who moves to their kingdom. Underwater. The mers assure them that it’s an entirely possible though admittedly painful transformation process.

5. Mer is the property of an underground fighting ring where different sea creatures are pitted against each other for the gambling amusement of the pirates and fisherman that come into port. Mer has become hardened and savage, never hesitating to tear someone or something apart before they get torn apart first. But when a fresh mer is captured, Mer recognizes them, and they’ll do anything to protect them.

6. Mer is the property of an underground fighting ring where different sea creatures are pitted against each other for the gambling amusement of the pirates and fisherman that come into port. Though they’ve become hardened and savage, they have also grown close to one of their competitors. Though they’re forced to fight often, they tend to each others wounds outside the ring and pray their handlers never realize they’re pulling their punches.

7. The villain tries to feed the hero to the captive carnivorous mers swimming beneath their floors. Joke’s on them though, because one of these mers is the hero’s long lost lover and they’ve been looking for them everywhere.

8. When their parents were hunted and killed, a whale type mermaid is adopted by regular mermaids as a baby. Despite the massive—pun intended—accommodations made to shelter them, their adopted family has always been determined to make sure they are loved and taken care of. But that doesn’t stop Mer from having problems with other mers or from wondering about their own kind.

9. A carnivorous mer and a herbivore mer are captured and sold to a collector. Despite their differing instincts and backgrounds, they must rely on each other to find freedom.

10. A mer from the deep sea is washed ashore in a small fishing village. Though their unconventional appearance makes them abhorrent to many of the townspeople, a visiting scholar takes the displaced mer into their home and offers them kindness, as well as a few hundred questions.

It is not often that I am called upon for a research mission, much less one for the Crown. It seems my writing from a year prior has attracted attention from high places. And it seems someone has found something intriguing that requires my expertise. So, I am to make my way to the Capital.

Luckily I am not needed urgently. Bones are unlikely to wander away if I delay, so I have some liberty to explore, observe, and catalog as I please, which I will happily do so. There have been other observations I have made prior commitments towards, and no matter now great the Crown sees their new acquisition, their time is no more important to me than any of my other colleagues.

My friend, Dr. Branston, has made her thoughts clear. She has warned me to be warry of whatever the crown may wish to show me, for they tend to not understand the ethics scientists like us take into consideration. While I appreciate the warning, I am disappointed she declined my invitation to come with me. Apparently she is not in good standings with the Crown. Regardless, I look forward to our time together on our vacation along the coast.

In any case, I welcome the public to read my thoughts and observations as I fulfill my commitments, and when I arrive to the Crown. Merms are creatures to behold, and the response I received prior was both humbling and cherished.

Eating Krill by NaffEclipse

  archiveofourown.org/works/55954168/chapters/142093987

You are a humpback siren. You are large, powerful, and untouchable, but one rivals you—an orca siren. The lone siren challenges your might with his very presence, refusing to flee your waters nor concede to your superiority.

With blood and pride, you will sink him.

The Seal and the Stones by Robin_Green

A Fishy Business Rewrite

Attacked and almost killed by sea devils, I manage to escape and hide in a cave only to be found by something... not quite human. Too weak to get away and with the beasts that wanted to eat me waiting outside, this landwalker kidnaps me, taking me to his ship. This is where I find that there are not one but two of these metal creatures.

  archiveofourown.org/works/54984274/chapters/139386190

You’re the captain of the most feared pirate ship in the seas, the Star Runner. However, when you raid another pirate’s ship and find two mers trapped in his nets, things start to change.

And what’s going on with all these storms?

A Lucky Charm by Existenial_Crisis

  archiveofourown.org/works/55609099/chapters/141143251

Sailors tend to be superstitious, and sailors of the stars are no different. It’s tradition to bring a good luck charm with them when they go on a long voyage for safety.

Unfortunately, that means me.

And I think my luck ran out.

Warmer Waters by ClaysBots

  archiveofourown.org/works/56008525/chapters/142246252

Another Great Day of Saving the Sharks by Kezibun

  archiveofourown.org/works/56002465/chapters/142229113

There are many benefits of being a marine biologist, one of which you enjoy is researching Mer-creatures, more spesifically Celestials.

Celestial Mers also known as The Sun and Moon Sea monsters, are fish mimicking mer creatures, one active at day the other at night, they usually pair up in a mutual symbiotic relationship they rely so heavily on eachother that now it's almost imposible for one to survive without the other. So what happens when one is seporated from it's daycare? An impending rescue mission of course.

Celestial Scales byAnxiouscr0w

  archiveofourown.org/works/56163733/chapters/142673113

A hotspring surrounded by dense jungle, only two miles from Baywind village, acts as a safe space for you after long days. With each passing day over the years, you've felt like you're being watched, eventually being approached by a small group of merfolk. One wants to befriend you, one would die if it meant killing you too... and neither of them are telling the truth about the pair of eyes in the fissure.

The Treasure of The Equinox by Chat_Rivary

  archiveofourown.org/works/56091979/chapters/142472371

When his sailors caught a Mer in nets, Eclipse, the infamous Capitain of the Equinox, knew that he was going to be rich. It wasn't every day that a specimen of the Mer like you was captured, and he knew he could sell you at a more than fair price.

What the pirate captain didn't know was that your arrival, in addition to the promise of gold, would bring him something he'd never dreamed of.

Whether it was because of your personality, your beauty, your intelligence or your species, Eclipse knew that his life would never be the same again because of you, whether it was because of the money you were going to bring him or the feelings you were inevitably making him develop...

A Step by Step Guide on Mermaid Courtship by foggystarrs

  archiveofourown.org/works/55731688/chapters/141477898

You find two merpeople stuck in a fisherman's net and decide to help free them.

You don't expect to see them again after that night, but it turns out that they have other plans. As you're suddenly being showered with gifts and shiny trinkets from the depths of the ocean, you start to wonder what you've gotten yourself into.

After all, you didn't expect the two mers to suddenly start courting you.

or basically, Mer! Sun & Moon try to romance the reader, but reader is as dense as a rock.
