are you REALLY married to the little mermaid?!?!?

[Maria is so excited by this idea. You don't know how excited she is.]

[heartgivenwings]

So you know the story! That's right. I asked to be her wife when we were kids and she preferred to be a wife so I became her prince. We're both from stories but also... not. We're not quite sure and neither are the others like us. She remembers the sea even if she's never seen it, for example.

[This reminds her of something, though...]

Someone once said they thought it was wonderful that Little Mermaid married, too. Guess we were lucky.

[happyhalloween]

oh!!! that sounds exciting!!!

i didn't know that boys could be wives.

[Maria... is from 1986. Probably. Sort of. She has certain Assumptions.]

[heartgivenwings]

That was her reaction... I didn't think girls could be princes when she suggested it.

All the other Blood Maidens thought I was a boy, too, until I told them otherwise.

[She's used to it by now, thankfully.]

[happyhalloween]

i didn't know girls could be princes either! so you're a GIRL?!?

[This is mind-blowing.]

[heartgivenwings]

Sure am. "Otsuu" comes from a story about a crane who turns into a woman after a hunter saves her life.

[happyhalloween]

[MARIA IS SO INTRIGUED BY THIS.]

!!!!!

DOES THIS MEAN YOU'RE A CRANE TOO?!?!?!

[heartgivenwings]

I

Get wings sometimes?

[happyhalloween]

THAT'S AMAZING!!!

[So impressed. Maria is so impressed.]

[heartgivenwings]

You

You really think so?? You're not weirded out or anything???

[She's so happy but also confused?]

[happyhalloween]

yes!!! having wings sounds like it would be lots of fun!!!

most of my best friends are magic, so it makes sense that you might be magic too.

[heartgivenwings]

Some of us can do magic but I don't know if we're magic.

Most folks get a bit weirded out by us being so... different than normal humans. I can't say much on the wings part; I usually can't remember what happens after that.

[When you live in a fairy tale inspired dungeon most people think twice about people named after fairy tale characters but Otsuu is actually glad to talk about this more... frankly here.]

[happyhalloween]

doing magic and being magic are sort of like each other, though. you can make magic people by doing magic and then sometimes they too can do magic.

people get weirded out by me too. it's okay. i don't think you're weird at all.

[heartgivenwings]

Huh. I never really thought about it that way.

I don't think you're weird, either. I'm kind of happy that you know about Princess's story. I think only really the elders remember much about the surface stories anymore. People used to recognize our names a lot easier when we were younger.

[happyhalloween]

i'm sorry they don't anymore.

i like stories with magic in them a lot, so i know a lot of them!

[heartgivenwings]

So am I; though, with how the Marchen are I don't blame anyone. Ah... those are the monsters that brought the city underground.

[She wishes they just had Pokemon instead.]

That's good! I wouldn't mind hearing some. I tried reading the book Gretel found but it felt sort of weird reading about our friends like that.

[But Gretel's a gremlin and didn't care.]

[happyhalloween]

ange used gretel as a name once to be secret!

once upon a time there was a witch named beatrice. my grandfather made a contract with her to get a lot of gold! but in return she could take it back once he was dead! and anything else that belonged to our family! including the people!

[heartgivenwings]

It's a good name.

He was alright with that? A promise is a promise and debts should always be repaid. [Both her and Hameln agreed on that point. Always repay your debts. Never make a promise you can't keep. A contract was sort of like that... Sort of.] He must really have wanted that gold to make such a risky deal.

[happyhalloween]

he really wanted the gold! and he was tricky and tried to bind beatrice to him but she got away!

[heartgivenwings]

What a tricky old man! Good that she escaped.

[happyhalloween]

grandfather is really tricky, but beato is always trickier.

(beato is what her friends call her.)

[heartgivenwings]

She sounds like she'd be interesting to have as a friend.

[happyhalloween]

she is my BEST friend.

and sakutaro. he's also my best friend. but he's my best lion friend and beato's my best witch friend.

[heartgivenwings]

You must like then both a lot! I love Princess but I'm not sure if she counts as a best friend...

Maybe Hammy counts.

[happyhalloween]

who's hammy?
