    Summary

    He’s a marine biology student so it’s a nice place to take samples of the water and its plant life, even watching when kinds of fish live there.

    Martyn pulls back the branches of a tree, walking out onto the small line of sand.

    Something on the small beach catches his eye, light blue standing out against the dull shine of a sharp barbed metal fishing net.

    -⬘♡⬘♡⬘♡⬘-

    The siren let out a sharp bark, beating his tail in surprise. Wires dug into his scales and skin, tangling further as he tried to regain his bearings. Scott tried to pull at the net with taloned hands, but all his efforts yelled were sliced palms, the metal barbs digging into his skin.

    Despite his desperate struggle, Scott’s eyelids grew heavier and heavier, until they slipped shut as consciousness escaped him.
     

    or, Scott is a mer who gets trapped in a fishing net, Martyn is a marine biology student who finds him and bring his home to take care of.

    Summary

    Was it all just wasted? Or of a different kind.
    A different time, where we all knew the end came swift-
    -as mountain winds blew.
    And I knew you. In every shade as you grew.
    For all you struggled to do.
    And I knew you. Stars above, I knew you.
    And I loved you, for all I forgot to survive, for all that I tore to arrive-
    -at this place, scarred and twisted and cracked, with a new cast of names all here at my back.
    And I loved you, my dear, in all of your shapes.
    For all that you ached to fly.
    And you that I knew, though I’ll curse and I’ll lie.
    It’s all what I don’t know.
    Who the hell am I?

    {In which it's been a long time since I last saw you.}

    Summary

    Perhaps their arrival should’ve meant more.

    Somehow been distinctive, somehow been intense. Underlined by some grand celebration, some sort of hurrah that would herald the end of a journey.

    And yet, it was none of those things.

    Instead, on that final climb up the mountain, Martyn found his mind assaulted by so many conflicting things that the gates passing over his head, the voices calling in awe of a witch in the town…it all fell to the background.

    White noise compared to the figure next to him.

    {In which Martyn seeks, Ren settles, and Scott and Jimmy know when to let themselves out.}

    Summary

    There it was.

    Up on the mountaintop, with sturdy walls and lanterns on the lookout towards like beacons in the winter night of the old continent. Scott was bundled tight against his chest, under the blanket Martyn had given them. Jimmy was leaning with his back against a sturdy tree trunk, up in the canopy hidden in the leaves. His wings were half folded but relaxed as he looked up at that mountaintop city, beyond which somewhere not terribly far were the free hybrid cities.

    Jimmy had a lot of suspicions about that. He hadn’t voiced them; he knew Scott, for all his determination, was still woefully naive about the ways of the old continent, about how they all function.

    It wasn’t hybrids vs humans or anything. It was far more complicated than that. But thankfully, so far, Jimmy had proven strong enough to protect him.

    Maybe that was why his mind was spiraling, tugging like the last persistent leaves on the dying branches.

    {In which Jimmy puts something to the air, Scott appreciates cuddles from his feathery boyfriend regardless, and it really is about time for an introduction.}

    Summary

    Scott is a mermaid. He's done well at hiding the secret for the past few seasons, but in Limited Life, the homesickness gets to him, and he decides to base near the ocean. As long as he's careful, nobody will know, right?

    He isn't careful enough.

    Summary

    Martyn leant back on his arms, kicking his feet through the water as he watched his partner swimming deep below him. It was a rest day on the Limited Life server, and a hot one too. Some people were using today to gear up, but they were in a time of yellow peace and Martyn was planning to make the most of this time to actually relax. You could be geared to the teeth but it wasn’t going to do you any good if you were burnt out and swaying on your feet with exhaustion.

    “What’re you thinking about?” Scott asked, popping up in the water just in front of him. His teeth were visibly sharper, just one of the many changes Martyn had noticed since the man’s name had turned to yellow. It had only been a day, he was still getting used to the new changes, and Martyn was doing his best to not get any ideas from looking too long at Scott’s gills.

    Summary

    Cleo offered a lopsided smile. “Thank me later. Preferably when I’m not committing minor acts of treason for you.”

    The wind picked up again, tugging at cloaks, tossing salt into their hair.

    And behind them, the tavern doors creaked open and shut, the Isle moving on as it always did; loud, chaotic, and utterly unaware that the tide had shifted beneath their feet.

    Summary

    Jimmy had gotten used to staying quiet.

    He wasn't a good fighter. He wasn't particularly strong or fast, nor did he have incredible eyesight from thousands of feet up. So when he'd been sold from his colony as a kid, he'd bounced around between various masters, markets, and otherwise. It's at this most recent market that he meets Scott, a mer painfully new to the sick system Jimmy had spent his entire life intimately familiar with. At first, he was unsure of how to handle it. How to deal with someone showing him the kindness most avians were never afforded. Because Avians were killers. Taciturn, violent, unfeeling weapons that didn't even have their own names.
    That's just how things were.
    But maybe with Scott, they didn't have to be.

    {In which Jimmy figures out how to express emotion, Scott refuses to quit, Avian rules and trauma get in the way of everything, and maybe making a run for it is a lot more poetic than it seems.}

    Summary

    He'd caught a glimpse of the man out of the corner of his eye, and even though he'd known he should ignore him, he'd needed a closer look. He couldn't even say what it was about this particular one, maybe the way his hair shined like buried treasure in the sun, maybe the handsome face that Scott could see even from a distance. He appeared to be yelling at someone, kicking at the sand and waving his hands in the air. The other human, brown haired with what looked like a piece of seaweed stuck to him - Scott was fairly sure that humans couldn't grow coloured hair like mer could - had his arms crossed and just seemed bored.

    They carried on for several minutes, during which time Scott slowly drifted closer despite all logic telling him that he shouldn't, before the brown haired human spun around and left, seemingly without another word.

    Summary

    The Dread Pirate Martyn knows the ocean better than anyone.
    The salt of the sea is always a thick crust in his eyes (sorry, eye) and hair. If his arms aren’t tan and his hair isn’t bleached white from the salt and beating sun, he doesn’t feel at home. Martyn is free on the open sea, freer than he’s ever been.
    Pirate Captain Scott Smajor, a former navy officer, hates Martyn with every bone in his body. He has reason, obviously. Who doesn’t, on the ocean? Martyn killed him, and Scott will make sure he pays for that.
    But when both captains are suddenly marooned on a remote island, Martyn finds himself confronted by the past, and Scott by the present. Loss rests heavy in both of their hearts, but if someone doesn’t find them soon they might start losing themselves, too.

    TL;DR, Scott and Martyn are Pirate Captains, who get shipwrecked and marooned on an island together! I haven't been able to stop thinking about pirates for MONTHS and here's the pirate fic I couldn't find the words for before now.

    Summary

    It was all quiet around the campfire. Martyn was mentally rehearsing some words he’d been thinking to himself for the past hour they’d been headed through the trees in near silence. Between Ren dragging him along, and Scott and the avian trailing behind them, they weren’t exactly in a social mood as they’d been fleeing that encounter with the paladins.

    Which, all things considered, had gone about as well as they probably could’ve hoped. But it had also left him with this strange gathering. A runaway mer and avian could be a huge liability...or an asset, depending on how you spun it. Martyn was typically good at spin-doctoring, even in his own head. There was so much more to deal with, though.

    Ren. Ren, Ren, Ren...Ren's smile, Ren's eyes, Ren's barely-there chuckle that, Martyn might be going crazy, but it sounded a touch louder, went on for a bit longer, than last time. A mer with an attitude, an overprotective avian, and...Ren. All of it was a lot...but Martyn didn't think he could claim they were unbearable.

    {In which Ren is feeling light, Martyn is feeling light-headed, Jimmy is playing a connections game, and Scott forgot to mention that he's been in his underclothes this entire time.}

    Summary

    “Nothin’ too crazy!" Sausage replies. "What about you? What’ve you been out there doin’?”

    “Me?” Martyn asks, as if it’s not incredibly obvious. “Well I mean, I guess you could say I’ve-” Been drinking alone? Nearly drowned? Stolen a Merling’s crown, and, heck found out Merlings were real in the first place, and how they could somehow gain legs, and somehow he managed to befriend one? And all without dying, for that matter? “-been busy,” Martyn concludes. “Workin’ on my boat. Yeah. The usual.”

    Summary

    Before Martyn can yell, he’s engulfed by the water, seized by the ankle of the same sandal that had broken its surface just before. The bottle, no longer in Martyn’s hand, hits the ocean and sinks. Down. Down. Down. Down.

    He breathes, and all he finds himself breathing is not oxygen. Something so cold and salty that it’s numbing. Drowning his taste buds, rushing into his chest like a burst dam, staining his throat with something rough and icy, yet so unbearably burning.

    Summary

    So maybe getting trapped in ice a few days ago hadn't been the best for a merperson who was still figuring out how life entirely above the surface worked. Jimmy didn't really understand it. All he knew was that a few days ago Scott had started coughing, yesterday he'd felt hot, and today when they'd woken up in the evening to begin their flight North once again, he just...hadn't woken up. His breaths were rattling, his eyes wouldn't open, and this wasn't it. This wasn't how Jimmy could bear to have this go, this fragile beloved person he'd found who said those words he hadn't heard, hadn't been allowed to remember, for seven long years. He needed to find help. He needed to find something, anything, that might change this, because fate had already been cruel enough...please, don't also take away his beloved before he could even manage to admit his own name.

    But who would ever help a runaway avian?

    {In which Scott has fever dreams, Jimmy has anxiety, but that's not news, Martyn's lucky he bought some citrine, and Ren is semi-fluent in avian distress noises.}
