Hatred enfolds us...inculcates the minds with its heresy.
Laymen enfold us...clemency arrives to set you free.
[ooc: Action welcome! He's prowling the waters around the Dawn Treader. Beware. Also sdlkjfglsad sorry for disappearing I locked myself out of his account during the great LJ Login debacle ~__~;]

They looked more like fish than humans, with yellow eyes and gray skin. They lived in a village, too, at the bottom of the lake, and I reckon most of them speak Mermish rather than English.
[Well, some did in the lake, but that probably had to do with the Task, right? He never did think to look into that - he'd just been happy to have the Task over with.]

[Not colloquially speaking, he's actually met a hag or two. Very nasty beasts. Witch-raising beasts.]
action!
Date: 2011-10-30 02:41 am (UTC)You wouldn't want any of them hearing you say that. [So dryly.] What are ocean-merpeople like?
action!

And ocean merfolk are like me, at least those I've met. We don't come in shades of gray.
[One day they might have a conversation about this, "Remember that one time you thought you were born a fish?" "Remember that one time you forgot you were born a prat?" At least Harry is no Eustace Scrubb.]
action!

How many others are there, around here?
[Harry is not unaware of the curse going on and can't help but wonder if this is an actual merman or someone who'll feel really stupid in a few days.]
action!
Date: 2011-10-31 10:24 pm (UTC)[The best of all the jousters. Now Caspian crests back as if he might be summoning the rest of his kinfolk...but none arrive because it's not his place to just bring forth a harem for Harry. PS. He will feel stupid and sick of seafood.]
A good handful. If you listen you'll hear them.
action!
