Into the Deep (Semi-Lit Mermaid Roleplay) OPEN FOR POSTING

Prospera||cliff tribe||lounging on the beach||open
Prospera was laying on the beach with her hands behind her head as she stared up at,the bright blue sky. It was so peaceful. Smiling to herself, Prospera began to sing a little to herself. She's been trying to enhance her voice, but it was still the same ole same ole. Feeling the sand in between her fingers and the water washing up on her tail, it was so relaxing. Closing her eyes, her song began to slowly die down to a hum.

Xemara||reef tribe||singing||Sam, Annabelle, Lydia, and Charlotte
Smiling, Xemara opened her mouth and began to sing. Her voice wasn't the best, after all, but it still had its own angelic sound to it. Letting her voice blend in with Lydia and Charlotte's, Xemara sang with all her heart. She loved to sing, swimming around to one side of the boat, she continued her song singing to no one in particular since Charlotte was singing to the boy and the girl was already in the water. Keeping her distance from the girl who seemed to be trying to swim towards them, Xemara's voice started to drift away from Lydia's until she was completely singing a song of her own.

Bobbie | Queen of Cliff Tribe | Nina and Juliana
Bobbie nodded with a smile, 'True - and they are quite fun to sink as well.' She said with a relatively playful smile as she broke into an Oyster, placing it on the rocky shore as the seal pup waddled back over. She the cracked open a clam for herself. She turned her head to Juliana when she arrived with a smile, 'Good Morning. Take how ever many you would like.' She said politely as she offered the net of shell fish to Juliana.

Anyone in the cliff tribe can join them if they want? They're just having some food before they go about their day }}

Judith & Timmy | Cliff Tribe | Ekene
Judith smiled warmly, 'I did not realise it had been that long, Ekene. Do you not remember me?' She said in her rather old fashioned, standard English voice with a slight chuckle. Timmy slid off the kelp and vines around her waist and approached Ekene, his long body splashing the water playfully before diving down to find himself something to eat.

Lydia Stone/Queen of Cliff Tribe/Tagged: Charlotte, Xemara, Samuel, Annabelle
When the girl leaped into the water, Lydia didn't stop her song, but changed it a bit to entice the boy to leap overboard next. She could see that he wouldn't hold out much longer, he was already preparing to hump down into the water.

Samuel Stone/Human/Lydia,Charlotte,Xemara,Annabelle
Samuel hardly registered Annabelle jumping overboard. His whole mind was taken over by the singing. He had moved to the side of the boat and stared into the water, only briefly hesitating before leaping into the deep blue waters below. When he hit the water he tried to locate the voices, but couldn't see them yet.

Charlotte | Reef Tribe | Tagging, Lydia, Xemara, Annabelle, Sam

Charlotte swam up to the boy, grabbing his arms. She intensified her song, pouring more happiness into the melody. She knew his heart's desires, and she used the song to glorify them and make them real. Soon he'd run out of air.

Ekene | Queen of the Lowcountry Tribe | Tagging Talia, Judith

"Judith?" Ekene asked, her eyes widening. "Judith! Ah, the water is cloudy! I'm so sorry! Let's get a breath." She propelled herself to the surface, gasping in a breath. She treaded water at the surface with a slight flick of her tail.

"How are you? It's been decades," she said, looking down at the eel circling around their tails. "And a companion? Is it a moray?"

Annabelle Beina | Human | Female | Tagging, Sam, Lydia, Charlotte, Xemara

Annabelle swam deeper, searching desperately for the voice of the wondrous music. The burning in her chest was merely an afterthought.

Judith & Timmy • Ekene ; Talia?
Judith swam to the surface with Ekene, Timmy following them towards the surface. 'It has been far too long.' She chuckled lightly, 'I've been swell.' She looked down at Timmy, 'And, Timmy is indeed a Moray.' She replied with a smile. She looked around briefly, noticing Talia before looking back at Ekene, 'How has things been in the tribe?' She asked curiously.

Talia | Lowcountry Tribe | Tagged: Ekene, Judith

Talia had been enjoying the swim, looking for anything interesting on the seafloor, when Ekene had taken off. The younger mermaid was taken aback for a moment, blinking before swimming swiftly after the queen. However, she wasn't the quickest swimmer and she didn't have great stamina, so it took her a while to catch up to Ekene. When she saw the other mermaid, someone she didn't know, she slunk back shyly, wondering how Ekene knew her. The eel that was swimming around the other mermaid made Talia a little more curious as well, she had never seen a mermaid with a pet before. Even though now she was curious and had plenty of questions, she didn't say anything, feeling awkward and shy.

Lydia Stone/Queen of Reef Tribe/Tagged: Charlotte, Xemara, Annabelle, Sam
Lydia watched as the boy leaped into the water, and she swam over to him along with Charlotte, still singing. But when she saw his face, her heart almost stopped. The face was intimately familiar, although she had only seen a younger version of it. It was her brother, she was sure of it. She stopped singing and, without thinking of what she was doing, she grabbed her brother round the waist and swam for the surface as fast as she could go.

Samuel Stone/Human/Charlotte, Xemara, Lydia, Annabelle
As Samuel swam deeper into the water, looking for the source of the song, he didn't hardly notice his chest start to burn. Suddenly a beautiful girl, singing of wonders he could only dream of, came right in frount of hi and grabbed his wrists. He stared into her face, ignoring the growing burning in his chest. Then he was suddenly racing through the water in the arms of another beautiful girl and, when he saw her face, even through his muddled, oxygen deprived brain, he knew her. His lost sister. He thought he must surely have died and gone to Heaven, for what other way could he be seeing her?

Claire||The Reef Tribe||Tagged: Maya

Maya | Reef Tribe | Tag; Claire
Maya smiled brightly, "Really? Sure!" She replied, maybe a bit too excited. She flicked her tail and used her arms to help her tread the water as she smiled warmly at Claire.

(Sorry I wrote this post and someone exited the tab before I could submit)

The warm smile made Claire shiver, she almost wanted to take it back and tell Maya to go away. But, that would be rude. "Ya, really... well, I guess we'll be off. Right?" Claire kept herself a float a little bit longer, forcing a smile. Then, she took a deep breath and dove back into the water. Claire waited a bit for Maya. She closed her eyes and reopened them to regain focus in the water, humming to herself as she readjusted her position and began diving down again.

Maya • Tag; Claire

Maya followed her, her tail flicking quickly as she swam after Claire. She looked around contently,although having noticed that Claire had forced a smile, she just tried to appreciate that someone had spoken to her. She used her arms to propell herself forwards, faster.

Charlotte | Reef Tribe | Tagging, Lydia, Xemara, Annabelle, Sam

Charlotte backed away as Lydia grabbed Sam, her eyes wide. Her song shattered. "Lydia!" she cried, hurrying up to the surface. "The timahk! What are you doing? He has to die!" Horror swelled in her gut. This had to be some sort of game. Lydia was perfect, Lydia would never break the timahk. Never.

Ekene | Queen of the Lowcountry Tribe | Tagging Talia, Judith

"Talia! This is an old, old friend of mine. Judith!" Ekene said, gesturing towards the younger mermaid. "Judith, this is Talia. She's been with the tribe for several years. Same with Constella, though she's away practicing." Ekene continued to tread water, smiling at Judith.

"Are you here for a visit?" she asked. "If you're hungry, we've got breakfast."

Annabelle Beina | Human | Female | Tagging, Sam, Lydia, Charlotte, Xemara

Annabelle's vision began to fade, but she didn't care. She was beaming, because finally, finally...

She'd found them.
