Mimic loved his mate. They were the sweetest thing ever. If he didn't love them so much, he might have even tried to eat them! He didn't, but he did think about it at least once or twice… Maybe three or four times.

He met them for the first time the time that they fell into the water, and he was GOING to eat them, but they were so cute and scared looking that he couldn't bring himself to do it! They looked like one of those cute puppies that he saw on the beach… he took them to his 'hiding' place and kept them there for a while.

They spoke about so much stuff and, sadly, he had to return them to their own place… luckily they came back sometimes to hang out with him!

Now they had been together for about three years; and he knew that Deep knew that he was dating them. He wasn't sure if the others knew, he was sure that they didn't.

Maybe Ringer did? Chum wasn't that smart. Er… nothing against Chum, of course… Mimic loved Chum! Yeah.

Today Mimic was sort of buried in the sand, his head rested down against his arms, relaxing. Hey, if he doesn't have to go and meet up with anyone he's gonna relax. Though… he was feeling kinda weird.

He shifts and squirms, letting out a soft sound. He had been laying there for a while now, so he slowly comes out from the sand, shaking himself off the best that he could.

He stretches out, digging his fingers into the sand while his tentacles shifted and curled around brushing up the sand into the water. He didn't really care, it would settle after a while. Once he was done, he reaches down rubbing at his tummy starting to swim away but paused.

Wait…

Why did he have a tummy?

He turns his head down, and his eyes widened. Oh! Okay that is a thing there! That sure is a thing. His stomach ecto was summoned and there seemed to be a little soul forming.

"What the hell?" he whispers to himself, then starts to swim quickly. He needed to tell Deep! Was this really happening? A souling means that there's going to be a baby! He didn't think that this could happen, plus it seems to be a human soul? Just very pale… maybe a mix of human and monster? Haha… that's awkward.

When Mimic got to Deep, he swims over quickly, "Deeeeeppppp!" He cries out and latches onto his boss, "I don't know what happened, Y/n's gonna be so confused!"

"Mimic… unhand me right now." Deep tells him, annoyance in his voice.

"But Deep, I'm gonna have a baby. I should be allowed to hug someone; it causes… hugging problems, you know?"

Deep sighs, rubbing his hand over his face but paused, and turned his head to look at Mimic, "You're-" he swims away a little, turning to look at the other merfolk, "How did you even… you know, I don't want to know. Go find Chum while I and Ringer go find your mate."

Mimic smiles and starts to swim off to go and find Chum. He figured it made sense that he would have to stay with Chum, make sure that he ate… would suck if he died cause of having babies. He wondered how many he was gonna have? How exciting!

Mimic: He likes you a lot! He finds your shyness cute, and sometimes likes to mess with you. He likes to make his tentacles look like snakes or other creatures, mimic octopus and all, and trick you into thinking they're different things. He finds your reactions really cute. He'll talk enough for the both of them, and he doesn't mind that you don't talk much. He does like the fact that you're a merfolk and a cuddly one at that. It makes him feel pretty good.

Ringer: He likes the fact that you're quiet, since he is as well. He's not exactly a slow or careful hunter, but he likes to see what you do. He has his... stuff that comes with being a blue ringed octopus, so seeing you hunt is always kind of exciting? Interesting, more or less. The cuddly part is something that he would have to get used to because he normally doesn't like to be touched. Just don't sneak up on him, and everything will work out fine.

Chum: Well... sometimes Chum forgets where you are, and it'll go and try to search for you. It can be fun, or it can be worrying to it since it likes knowing where you are. Yeah, it's pretty much the biggest thing in the ocean, but that just means it's easy to lose its tiny datemate. You. It likes how cuddly you are and will sometimes let you fall asleep in its skull or its ribs, so then you wouldn't get lost! You'd also be in a really safe space. Nobody could hope to attack you while it's there.

Light: Unlike you, he is not a hunter in that sort of way. He eats mostly plants or jellyfish, maybe some sea urchins. But he likes seeing you hunt, he finds it really interesting and exciting to see! Sometimes you two work together to help you catch stuff since he's so... well... soft and sort of weak looking? He's not! He could fight if he wanted. He's one of the most dangerous creatures in the ocean. Just like his brother.

Deep: Well, that's exactly how they hunt too. Have you ever been in pure darkness and then a light appears? That happens to whatever they're hunting, and they don't ever have enough time to get away. It's pretty scary, really. You two can hunt together! How fun. They don't mind you being cuddly, but they aren't really the most cuddly merfolk...

Inker: He likes that you're quiet, but he doesn't like the fact that you're so cuddly. He doesn't really... like to be touched and will often swim away before you could. Plus, it's dangerous! He doesn't want to accidentally hurt you or shoot ink on accident. So if you ever want to cuddle with them, you have to ask first, or they'll probably get startled. That's not something either of you want.

I mean sure, he could copy people's voices, but that didn't mean that he could shift between a human and a mermaid form! He wished that he could do that.

Though would he have a skeleton form instead of a human form? Cause he isn't human…

Eh, whatever, he thinks that it's really cool. He would love for you to go up there and get a lot of random human things, then you could bring it back to him and he would be able to try to figure out what the human things are!

That sounds like it would be so fun. He loves the idea of being able to go up above the waves, see what humans see but… he can't.

Mimic: Once Mimic notices that you were spying on him, he would chase over and good luck getting away from him. He would swim around you, laughing as he asked, "How come you're trying to spy on me, plant lady?" He won't try to attack, but he would have a few questions!

Ringer: He will attack if he thinks that you're a threat, and spying on him seems a little threatening. If you explain before he lands a hit, he will stop and listen to your reasoning… Why were you spying on him? He doesn't like people looking at him without him knowing.

Chum: He wouldn't notice haha. I'm sorry, he sucks at figuring things out like that… So yeah, have fun spying on him :)

Killer: I feel like… he isn't the best at it haha. He doesn't like being around people if they're sick cause he doesn't want to get sick himself. He would hold your hair back if you're getting sick but other than that, he would stay away. Sorry :P

Rebel: Whenever you're sick, Rebel is so worried! He has no idea what's going on and will pace around you while whining and pawing at your arms. Even if you explain what's going on, he's still worried and wants you to be better…

Calamity: I feel like he would be SHOCKINGLY good at taking care of people when they're sick. He doesn't know how to make food, you know very well, but he would get you soup and get you to rest. He's really sweet about it too. He tries to not act like he's even really doing anything.

Shot: Good at it! He more will just give you things and leave you to do whatever you wanted to do, and if you need anything, he would come to hel out but only if you call him.

Arman: I feel like he wouldn't be very good at it, honestly. Humans are weird to him and he wouldn't really know what you need.

Mimic: Same as Arman -w-'

Cuddles: Not good at all. He would try, but get worked up and it might be best to just… not be near him when you're sick.

Splat: Same as Cuddles but even worse.

Shooting Star: I feel like he would be pretty good at taking care of someone when they're sick. Like not 100%, but good enough. Though it really depends.

Scales: Scales finds you really interesting. Normally he wouldn’t like way too aggressive/mean sea creatures, ironic given his brother is a shark but they aren’t normally aggressive, shut up. Even so, after getting to know you, he finds you really fun to hang out with! Your eyesight isn’t the best so he would love to just latch onto you and curl his tentacles around you and tell you where stuff is so you wouldn’t bump into it. Sometimes he would fall asleep on you/wrapped around you, which he finds really funny. He likes how pretty you are too...  

Shark: He doesn’t see why people are scared of you! You’re cute! It’s just like that meme “they don’t bite!” he thinks that the sounds you make to see where you’re going is kinda freaky to hear when you don’t know who’s causing it but he knows it’s normally you! Reapers seem to dislike it when others come around their area so he doesn’t need to worry about any other ones coming too close. He likes to swim with you and will help you catch stuff to eat. He likes seeing you grabbing stuff with the things on your face! He thinks it’s so cool!

Mimic: Malewife. He thinks you’re the coolest thing in the world and will tell you that all the time. He feels SOOOO into you and will always tell you how hot it is when you catch things with those things on your face, and he loves to see you tear things apart with your sharp teeth and claws. Heart eyes each and every time. You both are pretty sucky with eyesight but he’s a bit better and will help you get around if you don’t want to let out that loud sound that helps you get around. 

Ringer: He doesn’t really see the big deal in you. You’re big, scary, and aggressive, sure, but so is Chum. You’re just his datemate and he loves you but he doesn’t make what you can or can’t do a big deal. 

Chum: Mimic likes to call them a power couple, which Chum finds funny. A lot of people are scared of him or at least of his idea. He’s heard the stories that people tell on ships, knows that they fear him. He dislikes it but this isn’t about all of that! He thinks that you’re really cute, you’re smaller than him by some but you still like to be dangerous and he finds you interesting. The both of you have bad eyesight and you normally help him find his way around with your sounds. He likes to gently wrap his tentacles around you whenever you two are relaxing together. 

Light: He lives up in the top of the water while you’re normally deeper in it, and he feels bad that you sometimes have to come up just to see him so sometimes he would go down to swim with you! It’s a little dangerous for him cause he can’t swim that fast with the shape of his tail. He was made mostly for beauty in looks rather than speed or anything like that... luckily most wouldn’t try to attack him with you around! Plus he gets to see his brother more often while around you which is nice. He makes jokes about how he has a large scary creature too! Like how Deep has Chum... he doesn’t think you’re really that scary though, cause you’re his partner and he loves you. 

Mimic: GIANT GIRLFRIEND! He loves you SO much. He wants to nuzzle into your chest, or sometimes he hides your hair and rushes out to startle others. He finds it so funny, while you most likely giggle and snort at him. He loves your big smooches, too.

Ringer: Sometimes he likes to rest on top of your head while you swim, enjoying being able to rest and you're able to go a lot faster than him because of how big you are. Won't lie, he likes you a bit more than Chum, just because of how soft you look. You're really sweet… he loves it and hates it.

Chum: It isn't used to people around the same size as it, so honestly, at first it would avoid you! It finds you interesting, exciting even, but also very scary. Slowly, after a while, it would decide to go and talk to you, or bring you gifts then swim away before you could talk to it. Its friends find it very funny how awkward it got. It finds your hair really fun to play with and you two together is most likely SO scary.

Light: he loves his big big girlfriend ^^ he'll often swim around you while you guys are swimming around and he likes how blue you are while he's such a bright yellow… let him snuggle into your hair! Plz. When he first met you, he was a little unsure and scared, but that's just because you were so big! Quickly he would realize that you were nice and he grew close and attached to you quickly.

Mimic: he thinks that your tail is the coolest! He likes taking you down to the darker parts to see it glow… he does wanna know exactly what makes it glow… sometimes he would, honestly, use you as bait to catch fish lol. He won't let you get hurt, promise!

Ringer: He doesn't say, but he loves your tail. He likes how it glows and will honestly trace his fingers over the glowing parts any time that he can. He's not good at hiding his attention and attraction to it… he has a hard time ignoring glowing things.

Pinks: It really depends on if you're in the lake with him, or if he's in the ocean with you. If it's the second, then he's going to stick close to you. You've most likely lived so long even if you glow so you must know how to do some stuff, right? He sees your glow as a beacon of safety.

Chum: It calls you its love light. It glows as well, much brighter than you in almost the same color, which it finds amusing. It will always look for your glow and you two flash the glow back and forth which it finds really fun! That makes it feel less… scary.

Light: He loves your glow! He finds it sad that the only time he can really see it is if you guys go to a darker place, or if it's night time. He makes seeing your glow an excuse to go and see his brother too though which he really hopes you don't mind haha.

Deep: He sees you as a beacon of hope. You're a light in his darkness… even if everything around him is dark, you're always there to light it up. Sometimes he would turn off his own glow just so yours would shine even brighter… he doesn't know what he would do without you.

Cielo: He has a glow to him as well! He thinks that yours is really pretty though and he likes to see the difference. All space merfolk glow though so it isn't really that impressive ^^' I'm sorry.

Comet: Even if your glow is close to his brothers, he still thinks that yours is really pretty! He enjoys tracing his fingers along where the glow forms. He enjoys seeing your reaction, thinks it's cute.

Badar: It will hold you close everywhere you two go together. With how big it is, it feels like it needs to protect you from everything and everyone. As long as you're near it, you're protected. You're save. Nothing will ever happen to you.

Devil: Will show you off lol. Glowing is seen as a real damn impressive thing for his type of merfolk. You know, where he's from. A lot of people most likely wanted to date you, but he was the one that got it! Ha!

Tiger: Will also show you off, but is always courting you. He doesn't care that you two are already together, he's going to be giving you so many gifts, a lot of food, and anything else that he can think of. He loves you, and doesn't want a chance of you getting taken away from him.

Inker: The glow kinda annoys them sometimes… mostly when they're trying to get around and then they look over at you. Their eyes are very used to darkness so it is almost blinding… but other than that, they like it. They find it relaxing when they're not hunting and the faint glow is nice to sleep to…
