<<I couldn't resist >>
Despite the fact that for some odd reason ever since arriving here Andrina just magically got legs every time she walked up far enough on land from seawater, the still mermaid would always gravitate towards the water. Oh sure, exploring land so easily was super exciting, and what she found on it, including Varian and the other trapped guests, but she always returned to her roots in one form or another.
Even the Resort on land she stayed at, Caribbean Beach Hotel, jutted up against the water and had a clear view from the window. She could have figured out a dwelling in coral etc, but the parks weren't really designed to make that easy even for a mermaid.
Andrina was down by Typhoon Lagoon today, debating if she would get in the water again herself. It had been a while and her legs were getting itchy. From still way far down on the beach, she did so, smiling as her purple shorts turned to her familiar tail once more and her t-shirt to her shells, she did a splash into the water, like the dolphins she would swim with at times back in Atlantica and then glanced from underneath the water up, thinking she spotted a familiar green tail as she did such!
Reminding herself that this place liked to have fake things for the kids, and they might have put in a mermaid statue of sorts, Andrina swam closer until she was sure she wasn't imaging things. Surfacing just proved it!
"Ariel?", she asked stunned, and then squealed, "Ariel! Oh it is you!", Tritan's daughter, only a year older than her only younger sister, launched forward to hug her, "Oh, and you're a mermaid again", she gasped, "Did something happen with you and Eric?! Oh tell me everything's alright!".
Logic made it back into Andrina's own head after she said this, and she realized that she had been thinking like they were back home, if Ariel was transported to the parks it made sense for her to be a mermaid again maybe, with all the crazy things the magic did.
