“erm, iskall? grian’s looking for you, he—” mumbo cuts himself off as his eyes land on the engineer, registering the sight in front of him.

iskall is seated in a chair, tinkering with something in his hands. he’s got an eyepatch over his left eye, which covers a good chunk of the left side of his face. to mumbo, it seems like his face is set in concentration, with the way his one visible eyebrow is furrowed.

mumbo, who had just been poking his head into the room, takes a step inside. he still isn’t quite sure how to approach grian’s right hand. iskall seems pretty keen on hating him (not that mumbo blames him, really), and the last thing mumbo wants is to make it worse.

“captain’s looking for me?” iskall asks, not looking up as mumbo comes over to him. standing beside him like this, mumbo can see a screwdriver in his hand, and he’s fiddling with his bionic eye. there’s different wires attached to it, which are attached to a monitor of sorts.

“oh uhm, he is, yes.” mumbo replies. “he said something about going over supplies for the upcoming heist? but uhm…” he trails off, eyes staring down at iskall’s hands. they’re very nice hands, honestly. “is your eye alright?”

“‘s fine. doing a check up on it since it’s been giving me headaches.” iskall grumbles in reply. “only doc’s tech, i tell ya.”

mumbo recalls what he knows of doc. he’s never met the man in person, he only knows the rumors. he wonders how much of them are true. “headaches?”

iskall mutters a curse as he struggles with the screwdriver. it seems like he’s having difficulty getting the plating off. “yeah. those usually mean something needs to be fixed up. grian or tango usually help me out, but they’re both busy. and impulse is taking care of our weapons.”

mumbo frowns a little and before he can think, “i could… help. if you want?” it’s an offer he makes anxiously, trying to resist the temptation to fidget in place. he’s spent so long with higher ups who’d scold him for even the slightest movement.

iskall’s hand stills, and he finally lifts his head up to meet mumbo’s gaze. for a moment, they stare at each other, and mumbo fears that he’s overstepped. he’s still new to the crew, still trying to find his footing among them. and iskall still hates him, oh god why did he offer his help?!

“could use an extra set of eyes and hands.” iskall eventually says, and mumbo’s racing thoughts slow. he looks at iskall with surprise as the man pulls a second chair around for him. “sit. you’re going to have to listen to me very carefully and do exactly as i say.”

mumbo doesn’t hesitate to listen, tugging the chair closer to his desk and sitting down.

later, grian finds the two of them in a conversation about the best way to remove a core from a mechanism, and most of it goes over his head. but he leans against the doorframe and smiles as he watches them.

Future monarch of the Oceri, the grand kingdom that is in charge of most of the ocean.

It was an intimidating title for a humble mer-person such as yourself. Yet Your husband, Crown Prince Scar of Oceri, made it seem like the easiest thing in the world. It wasn't but as you began to learn from the current queen, you began to become accustomed to the way of the kingdom.

However, when you had a break, you and your husband love to head to the surface of the ocean to relax. With you, a Guard was usually brought for safety reason but the Guard was a good friend of yours.

"Cub!" You pleaded "Please?"

"I'm sorry Y/n," He said softly "But I'm obligated to keep you down here. There's a pirate ship overhead and I've received information that they may be hunting for mer-people. If I see you two leaving I'm going to lose my job."

"I'm sure a little bit of sun won't hurt. We'll stay under the water but we just want some sun." Scar spoke up, swimming up from behind "and its only if you see us leave."

"Plus you'll be able to watch over us once we beat you there," You said "Like always."

"If I see even a glimmer of your tails, I'm dragging you two back." Cub sighed and slumped forward while placing a hand over his eyes "You have a minute."

You and Scar giggled and swam up to just below the surface as you as fast as possibly could, holding hands the entire way. The rays of the sun warmed your skin and you sighed as you began to float in the rays of the sun in the calming presence of the sea. Scar came up from under you and held you tight, humming a random tune and pressing kisses into your cheek.

Despite all this love you two had for each other, it always felt like their was a missing piece. Like there should be someone else. However, You just brushed it off for always being in public and being mentally drained so you relaxed into your lovers arms and sighed happily.

That's when cub came up urgently

"Prince Scar, Y/n," Cub quickly swam up "I do suggest coming down quite a bit. The ship is really close now and I dont wanna risk anything."

"I think I have to agree on that," You muttered and look at the shadow that was coming closer and closer by the second

The men nodded and began to swim down, You took one last look at the warm upper water before turning to swim down to catch up with your husband and his best friend. As you almost reached Scar a thick net dropped in front of you and caught you and some other surface fish and it tugged you up

"Y/N!" Scar cried and swam up to grab you but missed your hand by an inch as you were pulled out of the waters and into the boat where the air burned your lungs as you cursed to Poseidon for getting you into this mess.

While you could turn into a human more suited for the air, that would leave you completely indecent and you had more sense of reason than your husband but it may-

your thought process stopped when you were unceremoniously dumped on the ship deck and gasps caught your attention

"We- WE CAUGHT ONE!" The crew cheered

"Now put a gag on it before it starts singing!" One crew member said "And put it in water! We don't need it drying out!"

The leader exclaimed and there was a flurry of movement that made you dizzy but soon you were gagged and were dumped in a way too small tank filled with sea water.

"Hello Little siren," A man walked up to the tank "Welcome to the Architechs. A pirate ship that builds and designs better than the kingdom."

You didn't answer. Something about him seemed... familiar. No matter what there was something else tugging at you about him. He was... pretty.

Yep

thats it

The captain of the ship was undeniably gorgeous. Nearly on par to your husband.

but there was something more than the simple physical attraction, you just had no idea what it was

"I'm the Captain of this here ship, My name is Grian. This here is my first mate, Mumbo and our Quartermater Iskall." The man, Grian introduced

Why did everything about him seem so familiar?

However, Down in the sea with Cub and Scar...

"I'm going to get them!" Scar said and swam up to the surface and grabbed onto the ship that was starting to speed up “Make sure My father knows we’re safe! I'll deal with the humans! After all, they can't be all be that bad.”

Unfortunately, Scar was unaware they could be that bad.

For now, he began climbing up the ship and once his tail was fully out of water, he made sure to switch into the human form only royal family members had.

He climbed up the ship and eventually made it over and onto the lower deck where no one was. He looked around, gaining his surrounding when he saw his partner tied and gagged in a small tank full of water.

However as he got closer he noticed the crew of the ship and that you were staring at someone with eyes that held curiosity, wonder and... something else

but when Scar took one step closer, he understood.

His attention was immediately drawn off you and to the man in front of you. A dirty blond with black eyes as dark as obsidian and most likely, the captain of the ship. Something about him made Scar want to grab him and You and drag you back down to the bottom of the ocean. A need to protect, to love, to claim.

Soon he caught your eyes. Scar saw you light up at the sight of him and you called to him in your native tounge.

'Scar!' You chirped 'Isn't he pretty!'

Scar nodded with a smile. Even after being kidnapped you were focused on something else.

Unfortunately, your call to him revealed his location and he had to move from out of the shadows.

When Scar did, most of the pirates covered their eyes at his indecency and Grian screeched something akin to 'put your clothes on!" while throwing his cape to the merman.

Grian had recognized this idiot of a man.

This was the crown prince of Oceri, Prince Scar.

But why was-

Grian felt his eyes widen and he turned to see the 'siren' his men had captured pressed up against the glass tryng to be as close to prince scar as possible.

but if Grian recognized scar them...

"Greeting to His highness, the crown Prince of the Sahara Kingdom. It is a pleasure to see you again Prince Grian." Scar said and Gave Grian a deep bow

Hearing the old title made Grian cringe but he held his face neutral as his crew gaped in shock. Then they began to shout and thats when Grian had enough.

"GET BACK TO WORK! Mumbo! Iskall! Bring our prisoner and the crown prince inside my office! And will someone please stop the ship!” Grian shouted and quickly turned to head back inside his office

Soon the four were in his office and the prisioner was wrapped in a red blanket and on two legs.

that means...

"You're Prince Scar's partner," Grian groaned and ran a hand down his face

"I am indeed," You say and give the prince in front of you a sweeping bow "I hold no ill will against you for this."

"I thank you for that," Grian said and slumped into the seat behind his desk, with Mumbo standing behind him on his right and Iskall on his left "But I cannot let you leave knowing that the crown prince of Sahara has run away to lead a gang of pirates. So, what will you like?"

You looked to your husband and he gave you a subtle nod.

"That is actually something me and my husband would like to talk about." You said "You see, Mer-people have this weird thing about knowing who is fated to us when first meeting. Think of it as a soulmate bond."

"And what does this have to do with me?" Grian asked while Mumbo and Iskall gave an exasperated look behind him

"Well, When I boarded the ship there was a tug. At first it was a simple attraction to your looks but then my husband boarded... That simple attraction became ten times stronger and that is when I realized We... are bonded. And I suspect that this was the work of my husband and his tiny child brain."

"Admittedly, Yes," Scar gave a grin and a nervous chuckle "See when we had first met as children Grian, I had imprinted on you accidentally. Then I met Y/n, I imprinted on them accidentally as well. I had no idea I would marry them and I had totally forgot about imprinting on you until just a few minutes ago."

"So?" Grian asked and raised an eyebrow "Its not like I will marry you two right away."

"oh goodness no!" You spoke up "Thats not what means. See because he had imprinted on both of us, My attraction to you int as strong but it is definitely still there. What we would like to do, if okay with you, is possibly... ah- how do humans say it... enter the talking stage and possibly date? Truthfully, if you are uncomfortable then we can drop this and we leave with no troubles."

Grian seemed to mull over it and as he did small mutters escaped his lips "They would hush up... connect the kingdoms even further..."

He then looked to Iskall and Mumbo who both shrugged before looking back to the group.

"No conditions?" Grian asked

"Two," Scar spoke up "One, No more Hunting for merpeople or sirens and Two, We would like if you stayed in a nearby fishing town. My partner and I can't go far from the kingdom or it will cause a panic."

"We could use a break," Mumbo spoke up softly "We've been at sea for years now without really ever stopping."

"But we-" Grian started

"I agree with Mumbo here," Iskall said ad watched as Grian slumped back in his seat "We could all use a break at sea. I havent felt real concrete for three years."

"Fine," Grian waved them off and Iskall and Mumbo both silently cheered behind Grian "You may court me and we will see how this ends. Where is this fishing town?"

You and Scar grinned widely and grabbed each others hands with joy

The next year and a half had your heart felt full.

The missing piece now found.

Grian was hesitant at first with the entire arrangement, That was understandable. You and Scar danced around him for months until he was comfortable enough to initiate hand holding and kisses. Grian fit perfectly between you and Scar, a perfect match for Scar's chaotic energy and your calm demeanor.

Now you were watching Scar and Grian bicker of what to make for movie night date Scar and you had planned on a hidden end of the each near the fishing town, sat on the shore letting the water splash at your legs as you smiled at your boys stupidity.

"We should make a filling meal!" Scar said

"Or we can get a bunch of snacks and fill up on those?" Grian asked a sly smile on his face

oh no-

That's when Grian pulled out his signature pout. Scar could never resist the look and neither could you. He must have learned that as a princeling.

With a defeated groan, Scar trudged over to the blanket and dropped down and rested his head on your lap.

"That's what you get for trying to fight with our pretty bird." You snicker and jolt when Scar lightly swats at your leg in mock anger

"Oh shush," Scar said but you felt his grin spread across your leg but his voice lowered as he started again "Are we-?"

"Yes, I would like to," You whispered back and leaned down to press kisses onto his scalp "But if he doesn't want to then I'm willing to wait. Anything for the two of you."

"What doing?" Grian asked as he sat down with the snack in his hands and spreading them amongst the three of you. There were normal human snacks but also the of the mer people snacks that you had introduced to him a while ago

"Talking," You answer quickly

You were slightly flustered that he caught you two talking about your plans, the entire reason for this date.

After a little over a year, Grian had warmed up to the two of you exponentially. You had learned that within the first few months of courting Grian had fallen for the two of you, especially as he had gotten to know you and scar.

Truthfully? You definitely felt the same if not more.

So last month, you had bought a ring and showed it to scar.

You could never describe the way he lit up when he saw it. He told you he had the same idea and was going to talk about it with you that night when Grian was fast asleep.

So You planned this.

and this was going very according to plan.

"About?" Grian asked and sat down between you two, nuzzling into your side with closed eyes and a sweet smile that took your breath away

You looked to your husband who gave you a singular nod and a thousand uninvited butterflies filled your stomach. Why were you so nervous now? Was it the idea of him rejecting the two of you?

Despite your frantic thoughts you blurted out "You."

That made Grian pay attention. His eyes snapped open and widened as his mouth gaped before he jolted upright and asked "Did I do something wrong?"

His voice was soft and there was a thickness to it that indicted tears from the man.

"Huh? Oh! Nononono!" You waved your hands frantically as your eyes widened in panic "Of course not our songbird!"

Grian let out a sigh of relief and slumped back into you, Meanwhile behind him, Scar moved to one knee and opened the small box with a pearl ring you had gotten from the town Jeweler

"Sorry to scare you Songbird," Scar rumbled "But we have a very important question to ask."

This piqued Grian's interest and he turned around before a sharp gasp came from him

"We don't wanna scar you off," You started softly and moved up behind him, gently turning his hed so he can catch a glimpse of you from the corner of his eye "and Whatever you say, we will respect your opinion. No matter what we will love and-"

"Y/n, Yes, I understand," Grian cut you off and then you noticed his eyes, filled with tears and adoration "Please ask the question?"

"Grian H. Dreamslayer, Will you marry us?" You and Scar asked at the same only to be dragged to tackle Scar

"Yes!" He grinned and pressed small kisses to your and Scar's face "I was gonna ask next week but I'm kind of glad you two beat me to it. I didn't want to feel like I'm rushing you two."

"Oh," You coo and caress his face "Songbird, We're practically soulmates. You could never rush us."

You pressed a sweet kiss to your fiances lips before turning to kiss your husband who kissed you back.

"Now, why don't we enjoy this movie and celebrate more at our home," Scar whispered and pressed a Kiss to Grian's lips

"Yeah," Grian said and curled up between the two of you with a content smile

That night held many kisses, snuggles and some light showing off on Grian's part but it made you happy.

So very happy.
