Summary
And in dreams the ocean found him, turned
his lungs against him so that he felt
like he was underwater…
-------
Half-merman Reki is one of the only members of the small guild "Dope Sketch" that makes skateboards and does the odd jobs that bigger guilds won't bother to waste time on. Due to his poor magic skills, he thinks it's a waste of time to even dream about one day being a member of the famous "S" guild. However, after accepting a job request from the aquarium, he has an encounter that may change all that.Bookmarked by georgeace

Summary
“Don’t move,” Langa says, and takes a few steps back. “I’ll make it snow.”
“You’ll… okay?”
(Or: Langa's family welcomes Reki to Canada, and Reki experiences a proper snow day for the first time.)

Summary
Months after being drugged and kidnapped, Reki lives his young adult life on an olden ship, slaving away as part of a crew he despises. He's not a very good pirate. With a fear of drowning and a strange thought process, he's only given minimal tasks, like sewing, and carpentry, and occasionally fishing. His life out on the ocean is plain, and unenjoyable.
That is until one of the crew's fishing nets catches something big, with shiny blue scales and fair skin all at the same time. A mermaid. Or, merman, in this case. Regardless, this creature's very existence is enough to make Reki think he's officially lost it.
The crew keeps the creature in a small, wooden tank among the ship, telling Reki specifically not to interact with it. The Captain's plan for the creature? Use its scales for money and the creature itself for his own gain. A cruel plan no matter how you look at it.
Despite the various warnings Reki received, he doesn't listen, trying different ways to gain the creature’s trust, trying to get it to talk to him... if it can even talk, let alone in a language he can understand.
Maybe an unlikely friendship will occur? Or maybe even something more?

Summary
After Langa broke his promise, he and Reki never spoke again. Langa quit skating, barely survived high school, and tried to push down the gross feelings that tormented him every day. All that mattered was that he made it into college. This was his fresh start. He would stop thinking about Reki, and finally move on with his life. Easy, right? … Until he walked into his college dorm… and saw his new roommate. Turns out, the universe has jokes, and Langa is the punchline.

Summary
when Reki is suddenly swept up in the tidal wave that is Langa, a freakin real life mermaid (--er merman, boy? he keeps messing that up), his life does a railslide into the ridiculous. but if the impossible is, well, possible, then letting the merdude hop on a board couldn't hurt, could it? something about Langa makes Reki absolutely ready and willing to test that theory.
aka if you give a fish a skateboard... he's going to fall head over fin in love with you.
