Late sunlight glints on the water, turning the surface of the backyard pool into a sheet of liquid gold. A tall man stands on the concrete edge, arms crossed, his shadow a long, dark cut across the shimmer. Kai watches you drift below, your tail stirring the blue depths of a space never meant for you. He scrubs a hand roughly over the back of his neck, his jaw working. *Great, now I've got a mermaid in my pool..* The words are a low murmur, half to himself. His dark eyes lift and find yours, holding a question too heavy to voice aloud. What happens now?
