Summary
Zoey Choi and Kang Mira, students of Marine Biology and Marine Archaeology, respectively, earn the opportunity of a lifetime as interns for an expedition to Jeju Island. They are entrenched in the island's unique cultures and traditions, and with luck, their studies will help to preserve them for future generations.
But a diving accident puts the girls face-to-face with a living, breathing fiction that shakes their realities: a mermaid. Soon, they come to learn that secrets persist around Jeju just as stubbornly as the islanders' traditions, and they have unwittingly been drawn into a fragile web of deception and mysticism that runs deeper than they ever could have imagined.
And in the middle of the hurricane of questions they have, seated directly in the eye, is a mermaid with jagged purple patterns.
Rating may be subject to change in the future. Tags will be added as the story progresses.

Summary
Bioluminescent algae clung to the walls in soft, blue-green patches, providing an eerie, beautiful light. In the centre was a deep, still pool, fed by some hidden channel to the sea. And in the centre of that pool, resting on a flat, dry rock, was him.
He was breathtaking. Human from the waist up—all taut, golden-brown skin, broad shoulders, and a face of sharp, beautiful angles. But from the hips down… eight powerful, flexible tentacles, their colour shifting like an oil slick in the dim light, rested in the water or curled against the rock. They were sheer muscle, adorned here and there with delicate, fin-like ridges.
His head tilted, brown eyes almost innocent in the dim light.
.

.Away from his college friends, Buck was taken by a beautiful... merman?

A skz x the witcher story.
“I know you’re not a scribe.”
The words landed quietly, but they carried weight.
Jisung held his gaze. “Does it matter now?”
Minho stepped closer, closing the space between them until the air felt charged, tight with something unspoken.
“You’re running,” Minho said, his voice low. “Or you’re walking into something worse.”

Pirate bande de nuls (Band of Misfits) by Purplewhiteblack
Fandoms: Pirate bande de nuls, The Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists! (2012)

Summary
Basé sur un film que personne connaît (un stop motion) appelé Pirate bande de nuls, traduit de l’anglais The Pirates! In An Adventure With Scientistes!, je sais même pas combien il y a de francophones ici, mais fuck, je fais ce que je veux. Si vous aimez les pirates, venez! Pas besoin d’avoir vu le film (mais je recommande, si vous le trouver, ce que je doute). C’est un film pour enfants mais anyway. Un super film pour enfant où la morale est c’est ok d’être nul, protège ton petit animal au péril de ta vie, et attention à la reine Victoria elle est malade et utilise des katanas.
En fait, c’est que je l’ai réecouté et j’ai réalisé qu’il y avait une genre de tension entre le Capitaine Pirate et son Numéro Deux, et que j’allais mettre une pincée d’homosexualité. Si vous chercher du smut par contre, chui Ace alors chui pas la bonne personne à qui demander…
