[M4F] Human x Merman Plot Bunnies
Hello! I was looking for a few human woman x merman plot ideas, all Romances:
-
The woman is a human explorer that finds herself in a merman world, maybe takes a submarine into his realm where she is eventually found by him.
-
The woman is a scientist in a lab that is researching a new merman in the lab. They make very little progress with attempts to make contact or anything externally, so she decides eventually to try making contact in person, by jumping in herself.
-
She and the merman were best friends growing up (or potentially just coworkers or classmates, can be as close or distant as you want), with him secretly being a merman. Eventually she drowns, and he reveals his secret to her to save her.
-
Also childhood friends, but he disappeared/"died" when they were young, him swept out to sea and never seen again. As adults, they meet again when he reaches her from drowning - in his true merman form.
These are just general ideas I had, starting points for further brainstorming. If you like the idea of one and have modifications, feel free to mention them. And I'd love to hear any ideas of your own as well! The plot can be light, dark, have a fantasy or sci fi twist, or anything else you can think of!
\---
This rp involves heavy underwater aspects, with breath holding, breath play/breath control, and drowning/revival play. Keep that in mind, feel free to ask for details.
Writing Style: Literate/Novella writing style. Typically 2-3 Paragraphs, 1 minimum for fast dialogue or more for heavy exposition or describing. Open to either 1st or 3rd person, based on what you prefer. I love detail, even things like describing hair floating in the water, or the way sand scatters from your steps. If you have a writing sample, feel free to send it over with your intro!
If this sounds interesting and you want to hear more, feel free to ask any questions, details, or ideas you had! If not, than have a wonderful day!
