ocean blessed

The little mermaid ain’t got nothing on me! Hello hello! Some things came up and I had to let this blog go inactive for…. awhile, but now I’m back at it again! Returning to you all an oc blog with people who come from under the sea~!

So if you could do me a huge favor and REBLOG this promo around so it gets seen, and maybe even give me a FOLLOW if you’re interested in playing with these characters! This is a side blog, so all follow backs will come from my main adastraluminis.

Starter Call: Llyr, Varun & Aegir

      —— ❝ I don’t look that strange, I look like any other manakete should ! I don’t know what in the blazing hell a land walker is, don’t we all walk on land ? Well i guess I can fly ❞

 — The last part was mumbled a bit as he sighed, crossing his arms and squinting at the others. He was beyond strange to sage and he also had quite the mouth - not that sage wasn’t also mouthy with people. Sage scoffed softly and averted his eyes elsewhere now and brought one of his hands up to his teal hair and played with it.

     —— ❝ If anything, you talk strange and look strange ! I at least don’t use terms like land walker ❞

          “Manakete?” Varun’s eyes narrowed at the unfamiliar term. He was aware that there was another type of land walker, beast men who were somewhat decent, but he had never cared enough to look into the subspecies of them. It had also been so long since he’s met a beast man that he had thought they had finally taken a page from the water’s people, and removed themselves to a place where land walkers, humans he supposed he should call them, could not bother them. 

This makes crowded places incredibly uncomfortable for the merfolk and dragon born princes, and so the two of them tend to avoid such areas if they can help it. While they’ve learned to tune out certain sounds depending on volume and distance, it still doesn’t change the fact that it can be quite overwhelming for them at times and can cause them to appear ill. 

Members of The Dragon’s Treasure crew all learn to speak in lower volumes while below deck creating a quieter environment inside the ship than one would expect. While it’s not as much of a worry above deck the crew is notably quieter than most other ship crews, especially when Aegir is aboard. It’s a gesture from the crew that the three appreciate.

Aegir, with the best hearing of the three, has the worst time on land. Land Walker cities are quite overwhelming and more often than not while in one Aegir has some level of headache the whole time. Generally speaking when the ship is docked in a port the Dragon Born remains on board during the day, usually below deck to muffle the noise of the city, but will go and explore in the evening or early night as it’s less noisy. Taverns are places he doesn’t like to go into if he can help it, the volume of noise causing him almost instantly feel ill.

‘I’ve got a surprise for you,’ he said. ‘It’ll be fun,’ he said. While she couldn’t deny that the view was nice, part of the boat ride felt amiss. She knew he wasn’t completely human, so why bring her onto a boat when he could do the things he could do?

She’s not expecting the kiss to the forehead. And she’s definitely not expecting him to literally jump overboard with her in his arms. Her jerk reaction to hold her breath is met with laughter, and after a moment Kanami slowly opens one eye. Then the other.

“You dummy, I ca-!” Her surprised gasp bubbles up towards the surface as her mouth drops open. She was talking. And breathing. But she was clearly underwater. “What the heck?! How?! What did you do?!” Was she going to die in exchange for this? Would it surprise her coming from him?

          Moving forward in the water was as effortless as walking on land for him, turning around to face the girl before bowing playfully, “Little lady you have received a blessing of the water god!” His speech was overly grand as he announced that told with a wide mischievous grin, “It will allow you to breathe normally, and explore the ocean’s depths with me today.”
