You're so optimistic.

[...cue Triton showing up in Ariel's underwater hoard and wrecking it...Mikleo shifts back from the screen a little]

I'm...glad Gramps never got that mad.

[imsorey]

[Tensing up when Triton starts blowing things up, all the way through him leaving Ariel alone to cry. Ouch.]

Yeah. Jeez...that's overkill no matter how you look at it.

[oneandmikleonly]

[clutches at Sorey's arm tightly as that scene ends, wordless.]

[imsorey]

[That

sucked]

[He shifts and opens his mouth, but he doesn't have anything to say, so he hunches in a little closer and waits to see what will happen next.]

[oneandmikleonly]

[there are tears and bad decisions happening ]

I don't like this.

[imsorey]

[Sea witches named Ursula are apparently bad news, who knew]

She's just upset. She's not going to actually do it, right?

[oneandmikleonly]

Uh...

[she is totally doing it]

[imsorey]

No, don't do it, she's--

[pausing to cover his mouth and cough before continuing to yell at the screen in a rusty voice]

--she's tricking you!

[oneandmikleonly]

S-Sorey, calm down!

[puts a hand over his mouth helpfully]

[imsorey]

[MUFFLED OBJECTIONS!!!!!!!]

[oneandmikleonly]

It's. It's just a movie.

[even if he also looks rattled by it]

[imsorey]

[gives a grumbly sigh and coughs again before leaning back so he's not squishing mikleo.]

That doesn't mean it's okay.

[oneandmikleonly]

[withdraws his hand and tugs at a lock of Sorey's hair]

It's not, but it is just a story. You always want to help everyone out...

[imsorey]

[Ariel is a good girl of course he wants to help her!! He shakes his head at the accusation; he is getting swept up in the story, though it's hard not to.]

She doesn't need my help anyways. I bet she'll figure out a way to make it work.

[Case and point, SHE MEETS THE PRINCE]

[oneandmikleonly]

[he relaxes a little when Ariel does that instead of DROWNING HORRIBLY and starts analyzing again.]

There's some kind of inherent symbolism in her losing her voice to gain her desire, isn't there...

[imsorey]

A little. It's more like the one thing that could help her fully obtain what she's after is what she traded away. Or at least it makes it a whole lot harder to explain the situation to him.

[oneandmikleonly]

A very literal interpretation of a deal with the devil...

[imsorey]

It doesn't seem impossible to overcome though. She looks like she's managing okay.

[oneandmikleonly]

But she still needs to kiss him.

[FRETFUL]

[imsorey]

She has three whole days. He has to be able to see that she's in love with him by then.

[OVERESTIMATING THE POWER OF LOVE]

[oneandmikleonly]

[covering his face and peeking through his fingers]

This is gonna be rough.

[imsorey]

[There goes one day

she used her fork as a hairbrush]

It'll be...something.

[oneandmikleonly]

[under his breath, watching]

Is this how you'd have acted if I hadn't gone with you to the human world...

[imsorey]

[pokes him in the side]

As if. I know a little bit more about the human world than she does.

[oneandmikleonly]

[WRIGGLES >(]

I'm glad I've never caught you grooming with the utensils. Though there was that one time you tried to hang Gramps' spoons off your nose.

[you were right there with him Mikleo shut up]
