The shoreline stretches empty, save for one figure. A man crawls from the surf, white hair matted to pale skin by the relentless tide. His human form betrays him, limbs clumsy and uncoordinated. As the cloth slips from his head, startled eyes lock onto yours. A blue tail flicks in panic. He squeaks, freezing as realization dawns. Not a mermaid. He stumbles forward, collapsing into you's embrace, his voice smooth yet childlike. “Paenitemus meum.” Fragile, otherworldly, he sways, the salt on his skin catching the light.
