What would I give to live where you are ?
What would I pay to stay here beside you ?
What would I do to see you smiling at me ?

Okay now that The Little Mermaid has surpassed $500M world wide, I’m ready for Disney to release a limited 2D animated tv sequel, titled ‘Uncharted Waters’.
And yes, i think it should be 2D. 12-15 episodes, 45-60mins each.
Each episode will detail the adventures Ariel and Eric go on traveling from place to place, learning about new people and their cultures. Along the way, the pair become even more of not only lovers, but best friends. They tell one another about their lives leading up to when they met on land. They discover just how MUCH of soulmates (platonic and romantic) they are, and how much they’re meant to be together - how they’re similar in so many ways, and their differences balance each other out.
(And ofc, they butt heads and disagree from time to time bc no one nor couple is perfect but that’s what makes their relationship and friendship so much stronger).
Then the finale of the animated show will have some sort of complicated situation down in Atlantica (I know they don’t really refer to Triton’s Kingdom as Atlantica in the movie) that only Ariel can solve, which will lead into a live action movie sequel called, you guessed it, “Return to the Sea”…. In the live action movie sequel Ariel gets to be a mermaid for like 85% of the movie, and Eric also gets turned into a merman and he can see what life is like under the sea. They each get to experience the best of both worlds (word to Hannah Montana)
And when the tv and movie sequels do amazing numbers there will be a third movie which will have Melody 🥹🥹🥹 the movie plot would somewhat similar to the animated movie sequel but no Morgana (love her down but no thanks)
Disney, pay these writers, animators, and actors what they’re owed so we can get these projects going! Animated TV series in 2025, live action movie sequel in 2028, live action trilogy in 2031!
And don’t forget to run me my check for these ideas!

my body doesn’t jump when she caresses the water off my cheek. her touch is warm, calming. her soft gaze invites me to lean into her palm.
it isn’t until she pulls away that i reach after her hand, my mind going crazy at the familiarity of her touch.

I saw this and had a lot of thoughts and feelings about it, so I decided to write something up.
Ok yes, I completely agree with the female side of this. They were not looking for love and marriage but something greater than themselves and the small worlds they occupied.  I think Cinderella was open to marriage and love to get out of her miserable existence, and wanted to go to the ball not only to get out of the house, but because every eligible maiden in the kingdom was to attend.  And she’s a rule follower, clearly, since she obeys her stepmother and stepsister’s every command. (Granted if she didn’t she’d be thrown out probably.)
The men on the other hand, I’m not convinced all of these men wanted marriage, or only wanted marriage.  The Beast basically wanted to be left alone.  He knew he had to find love to break the curse but by the time Belle came along he seemed pretty resigned to that never happening.  While his staff clearly wanted Belle around to hopefully break the spell, I don’t think the Beast agreed to trade her for her father for that reason.  He was scared of the outside world and its judgment of him, and found Maurice’s intrusion threatening.  And by that point had become so beastly that all he knew was anger and violence.  (A great metaphor for the only acceptable masculine emotions and actions.)  So he kept him and then her as a prisoner until his staff said, maybe this could do something and he gave in to them.
With Prince Eric and Prince Charming, I think marriage was what was expected of them because of their titles and the time periods.  Eric seemed much more interested in adventure and exploration than in romance and marriage.  And when he thought he’d found the woman that saved his life it was just the thing to do to marry her.  And the King was the one pushing Charming to get married and set up the ball for that purpose.  We don’t really get much personality from him so I can’t say he didn’t want that but we don’t get a sense that that’s his sole goal.
I completely understand that Disney and fairy tales give people unrealistic expectations of love.  And yes to us now it’s ridiculous to “fall in love” almost instantly.  But we forget that most of these tales come from a time when your options were limited or decided for you.  And marriage wasn’t about love necessarily, it was procreation and expectation, and for the woman security.  Eric found a girl who cared enough to save him so of course marrying her makes sense.  Then when he finds out it's also the girl who also seemed to enjoy adventure like him and captivated him for the last few days, well win-win. Charming found a woman he could stand for more than 10 minutes after meeting all the women in the kingdom, so sure she’ll do.  The Beast and Belle are more realistic because it’s clear they got to know each other over a longer period of time.  It feels like months have probably passed.  And they found similar interests with the library.  That being said, they all waited until they found someone they genuinely liked, even if they knew immediately.  The timeline is unrealistic and so is the image of perfection that’s created with these romances.  Things in reality won’t be perfect and the connection won’t be immediate.  But I also feel like these stories of “true love” also gave me a desire not to settle.
I understand the point that this post is trying to make, and it is a good one.  There is much to be said about most things being shown through the male gaze and patriarchy.  And yes, as a society we forget/don’t care about the wants of women.  But I honestly feel like using these fairy tales as an example of that misses the point of many of these stories.  Sure Ariel married Eric, but a life on land and then a life with him was what she wanted in the story.  The whole story is about what she wanted.  And how she had to give up her voice to be heard.  And yes Belle was kept as a prisoner at first, and her story can be likened to Stockholm Syndrome of course.  Though once the Beast learned to love her he let her go and she chose to return. As a little girl growing up with these stories, sure I learned that love and marriage is the goal.  But I also learned from Belle that it’s ok to be different, to want more for your life than what you’ve been given, and to fight for what you believe in.  First she fought for her father’s wellbeing and then stood up to the town to defend the Beast.  I learned from Ariel that curiosity can take you to great places, that there’s always more to learn, and that we don’t need to be afraid of what we don’t know. Cinderella taught me that even when life is unfair or hard, to try to have a positive attitude and hope for a better future, and to ask for what you want.  She asked to go to the ball and tried so hard to make that happen even when the odds were stacked against her.
And honestly these men taught me things too.  The Beast taught me that people can change when given support.  Prince Charming and Prince Eric taught me to never give up searching for your dreams.
We absolutely need to talk more about the wants and desires of women.  And we need to stop putting marriage as the end goal for everyone.  But let’s not put these fairy tales in an anti-feminist box without exploring the nuances.  And maybe let’s use more real world examples of how patriarchy erases the desires of women and makes them into objects for the purposes of men and their desires.  Because there are plenty of those, and by using real examples we give kids (and adults) more practical and tangible problems to be aware of.

I’m on the verge of writing a mutichapter Eriel fic. It’ll be enemies to lovers aka /love/hate. Basically it’s gonna be about how they actually met each other as children, believed what their parents said about each other’s worlds which causes a string of bad interactions between just the two of them. But then they later grew out of believing their parents ideologies as their wonder and curiosity of each other’s world’s grew. BUT! After meeting each other years later (in the present day where the movie takes place) they still hate each other because of their negative, mutual and personal childhood history (but they don’t hate/fear each others worlds anymore) if that makes sense? Oh! And they fall deeply in love through it all!
Idk should I do it?
✨Sneak peek!✨
It happened on that fateful day in july.
Where land met sea.
She was 6.
He was 8.
They speared her mother.
But they drowned his father.
None cared to understand. On either side.
Anger married with fear was too tempting an emotion to relinquish.
And so it governed both sides.
It was decided. Their worlds were never to collide again.
And they agreed only on that.

ARE YOU READY, KIDS?!
Because I pulled back another peel of the LA!Ariel & Eric onion!
To me, it's so significant that LA!Ariel & Eric have that day bonding in Eric's library. Why? Because both the animated & LA versions had their time going around the island/town, showing Ariel human things in person, but there is a difference between experiencing new things by traveling, and experiencing new things from a far i.e. in museums or in reading about it.
Eric's library and Ariel's cove were museums of the interesting things they've found, shrines to knowledge. Not every lover of learning is as excited and inspired to learn about or share knowledge this slightly detached way (which is totally valid), but LA!Ariel and Eric DO, and they got to appreciate that in each other before they ventured out into a little part of the world together (and enjoyed it, too).
For myself, as someone who LOVES to experience history & culture through travel and is as equally a lover of learning through museums, books, magazines, the internet, etc., Live Action Ariel & Eric made me feel SO seen & understood! I get how hype & infatuating it can be to find a kindred spirit in that way, so of course I rooted for their love deeply!

LITERALLY cannot believe I’m posting this but I have the whole third part of my modern childhood friends to lovers AU for my two oblivious babies Ariel and Eric 🥰😍
This smut is actually what inspired this whole fic—it was originally one single fic with 3 chapters: the first chapter was them as kids just meeting, the second was going to a midpoint chapter of their teen years, and the last part was going to be Ariel’s prom and the smut haha
This section was blatantly inspired by Dress by Taylor Swift and I came up with the smut and built everything else from there. 💙
WARNING: THE LAST CHAPTER IS ALMOST COMPLETELY SMUT LOL I can’t believe I wrote it

prince eric pov:
as i am regaining consciousness, the sounds of clashing waves fill my ears. i feel a cold hand on my chest and the warm sand beneath me.
how did i get ashore?
my eyes are heavy, too heavy to open. my mind is in scrambles as i try to make out how i got here, what happened to my crew, what about max and grims?
my thoughts are interrupted by the cold hand as it softly swifts from my chest to my temple, accompanied by a heavenly melody. The melody echoes within me, ringing waiting for an answer.
my hand begins to follow the curious fingers, wondering who they belong to. My body happily obliges to the healing melody and i am greeted with comfort, safety.
As i am granted the strength to open my eyes, the curious fingers meet mine, her touch warm in mine, oppose to her coldness on the rest of me.
i try to get a glimpse of the girl who just saved my life but my vision is clouded, only allowing me to see a silhouette enhanced by the rising dawn.

Anyone who shits on The Little Mermaid 2023 in front of me can go jump into a whirlpool. Take that hatred elsewhere, it’s unwanted.
I love this remake cuz it’s the only one I liked.
