Theme # 56: Fight


It had been terrible, the fight – her parents had been furious, when she had told him she had fallen for a merman. Part-human marriages were not disallowed in her family, but a merman? She couldn’t possibly marry one! Where the heck would they live?

But Mirabella Plunkett was adamant – marry her merman, she would. Of course, she had no idea if he loved her back, but she would find some way to convince him of that. Feed him some sort of love potion, if she had to.

“Courage is my middle name, mum!”

“No darling, that’s stupidity.”
