>find a sweet pond that's not too deep and is clean
>you go skinny dipping
>just as you are naked you come upon these fresh water dwelling mermaids
>"Oh look Murel, another human. A male going 'skinny dipping' in this pond again."
>"Yes Reka I see. Now don't think about charming him, you already have a lover who comes for you every Friday."
>"Yes of course Murel, Who said I want this one? You could be the one to have him."
>"I'll see about it Reka, if he consent atleast. As for you human, don't mind us, just don't make a mess in this pond... We're slowly moving in here."

>what do?

Also talk and discuss about mermaids, selkie or any similar water dwelling creature.

>go skinny dipping
>a fucking näkki drags you to the depths and drowns you because fuck you
>disguises as you and goes dancing with humans in the midsummer festivities

I really liked that one depiction of a mermaid from The Witcher series
>Duke falls in love with mermaid
>mermaid seems to like duke too
>Duke: "hey mermaid we can totally bring you ashore, I don't even care about the dudes up here who will call me crazy, I want you"
>mermaid: "Why would I come ashore? I like having a tail, its pretty boss. You should come into the water"
>Duke: "but I'll lose my kingdom if I go into the water"
>mermaid: "typical human, refuses to sacrifice anything for love"
>mermaid proceeds to be a promiscuous bitch as per every female in The Witcher

And what does it do? Live the rest of its life as the human it murdered while also having sex with humans?

user it just goes dancing. Jesus no need to get creepy with it.

It just dances and then disappears. This is mythology we're talking about.

Celebrate midsummer, then go back to its watery pit to drown more people.

How does one male human have sex with a mermaid? I can only imagine having handjobs, blowjobs and titfucks with mermaids.

Where there is a hole, there is a way.

Advice on how to make love or date a merfolk?

post mermaid pics guys

Keeeellpieeee

She lays her eggs, you ejaculate on eggs. How can you not know this?

Noooo mang, I mean... Sex... How art thou fornicate with thy mermaid lover? Asides from blowjobs and titjobs?

If she has the fish part on top and the lady part on the bottom, then you're good, friendo.
Otherwise run.

Being Australian the mermaid is likely a Likanaya.
In which case my best bet is to head downstream to where the four metre long Salties live and try my luck with them instead.

Actually what she ends up doing is exactly what happens in The Little Mermaid, because as Geralt points out that while she can breathe air he can't breathe water.
The hilarious part is Dandelion literally recounted the Little Mermaid story earlier as "how he'd end that tale" and Geralt told him it was shitty she would never happen and that no one would ever read that junk.

They're likely Mammals.
They would have Mammilian plumbing.

What about Selkies?
I mean, can't they stay on land till midnight?
Or am I thinking of another bease?

>Mammilian
Mammalian

Wait the other mermaid is single and is willing to be in a relationship? Holy crap, why not!?

Who'd ever pass that up? Beautiful mermaid GF? Yes please.

Selkies can remain on land indefinitely, in both forms as a seal doesn't actually need the water to live, they are just heavily adapted to survive in it.

In the Selkie myth she runs away because she was kept a prisoner. the moment she saw her pelt, she wasn't going to let the chance slip by.
If the fisherman actually cared about her he would have let her keep her pelt and she probably would have stuck around because she loved him.

Related question; Seal collective noun is a spring.
What would you call a group of Selkies?
I always hear Pod, but that's Dolphins and Porpoises.

Mermaid problem aside, which likely only exists because people don't have a clue about aquatic mammals, I'm interested in their internal skeleton.

Many artists draw them as if the had leg bones in the tail, bending halfway down.
This is likely due to any live action mermaid portrayal until recently was done via costume, in which case there literally is legs in the tail.
Even now, costumes are still the cheaper option then half the actor being CG and easier to make realistic.

I suppose the obvious option is that we follow Dolphins, Whales, Dugongs and the like where there is no pelvis or legs, vestigial at most, and the vertebral column forms the tail.

>She lays her eggs, you ejaculate on eggs.

Also the seal approach.
Seals rear fins are their feet. on short, stumpy legs.

>No originality what-so-ever.

My personal favourite is a cross of the two.

Her 'legs' are fins slightly lower then pelvis to aid in swimming leaving her arms and hands free to hold and manipulate things.

Due to the human torso limitations leading to smaller lungs, she'd have to live near the surface, likely in coastal areas where there is an abundance of food to be found.

She probably couldn't swim all that fast and relied on tools and intelligence to hunt. Also omnivorous like humans, eating sea grass and coastal plants to supplement her diet.

Mermaid thread?

Mermaid Centaur?

Monsters of the inking Deep thread and not a single one of you shrimp inkvited me!? de-geso.

A forgettable character from a F-rated slice-of-life hentai-teasing anime? Why would we bring that shit here.

>hentai-teasing
You don't have a clue what your are actually talking about, do you?

Also have a fish person.

>your
you're

I want games with more merlions

>Be chased by a pack of lions
>They corner you with your back to a steep cliff with the ocean below
>Jump into the ocean to escape, because you can probably swim faster than lions
>attacked by merlions.

What the hell is going on on this picture?

A were-shark transformed on a fishing trip, mauled his five closest friends to death, and is about to fuck his wife like a shark.

>about to fuck his wife like a shark.
...How? By rubbing his cloaca against her vagina?

Creepy deep se mermaid is the best mermaid. But I might be biased since I just think deep sea fish in general are really cool.

You're thinking fish user, sharks actually do penetrate, they have two penises actually, and they are called claspers.

The claspers are modified anal fins the male shark uses the hold onto a female while they mate.

It would be different for a were-shark since here is a fuck ton of human DNA involved as well.

A werewolf's transformation pattern is tied to the lunar cycle, so would a wereshark turn into his beast form based on tidal patterns?

Sharkman holding a naked lady, covered in blood.

I haven't a clue. And I've never found any context to the picture either.

Considering the tides are determined by the moon, I'd stay with a Luna cycle but probably choose a different phase and time.

Otherwise if it's tides, they'll be turning twice a day pretty much.
