Technically correct 💰

Had the same thought when I saw this one

The title kind of ruins the punchline on this one...

“Sea legs” would have been my suggestion

Honestly a way better title

Sorry, I used the title of the comic for the post. It was the artists choice not mine.

Then you did the right thing, and they didn't lol

Prince Eric:

Leg man

"Why couldn't she be the other type of mermaid with a human lower half and a fish top half? 😩"

I’m coining the taxonomical name ‘Revermaid’. 😉

Not a diamrem?

Nah, I’m not so much into reversal. I’m more of a portmanteau guy. 🤓

Would.

Its what I love about humans males. If there is a way there is at least one on planet that will volunteer.

That’s Mini Fantasy Theater, not Pepper & Carrot

Actually not sure on this one. Pepper & Carrot is the overall webcomic, Mini Fantasy Theater is a sub comic of tales in the Pepper & Carrot world, so, idk. Maybe I just put the guys name? Mostly want it to be searchable hence the name in the title.

yeah, I think you are right

Ah, that's almost the same as one of my favourite folk songs...

Great Big Sea's The Mermaid, about a mermaid and her sister, the reverse mermaid:

But then one day, she swam away
So I sang to the clams and the whales
"Oh, how I miss her seaweed hair
And the silver shine of her scales"
But then her sister, she swam by
And set my heart a-whirl
Cause her upper part was an ugly fish
But her bottom part was a girl

Yes her hair was green as seaweed
Her skin was blue and pale
Her legs they are a work of art
I loved that girl with all my heart
And I don't give a damn about the upper part
'cause that's how I get my tail

"Show me a fin"

"Sorry, I don't have hands to pay you with. Bye!"
