Chapter Text
So this isn't a proper chapter but PLEASE READ its just explaining what Mermaids bit is ok!
so just to brush up 'Mermaids Bite' is not a real disease like you know, I made it up ok so no confusion.
Mermaids Bite is a disease that you can only get if you are born with it, the symptoms are, that on a certain limb of the body ( in this case both of Keith's legs) there will be odd markings, usually purple to blue shiny swirls on that limb that are in a sort of ocean like wave like patterns, there are also long red line going down the limbs.
(if you have watched Voltron then the red marks are basically the marks on Haggars face but on that limb.)
the effects of this disease is that it is very painful to move that limb and so those with it in their legs usually have to stay indoors in bed because it is extremely painful to even move them to walk, but pills can be taken to stop the pain for just an hour.
another effect is that even with a small amount of pressure on that limb it starts to bleed, you could only lightly tap the limb and a lot of blood will come out of the skin, the skin doesn't tear, its like sweat, so with slight pressure that limb basically sweats blood. that means the limb usually has to be wrapped up in bandages, there is no cure for this disease, pills can be taken for the pain but nothing can be done about the bleeding.
Thanks for reading this so you can understand basically what it is I am talking about in this story thank you now on with the story.
