tails are considered beautiful yes i'm just an ugly merfish his reply came almost instantly like he'd been sitting there waiting for me to message him i started wondering if his issues came from being bullied over his appearance sometimes people who are extremely attractive get targeted by others too maybe that was why he'd

convinced himself he was an ugly merfolk but by human standards you're incredibly good-looking you're the most beautiful person I've ever seen on the other side Siel nearly fainted from excitement so humans actually thought he was beautiful maybe maybe only this particular human thought he was

While on a beastfolk planet, the pelican mistook the merfolk for food and swallowed him whole. And somehow, they fell in love at first sight. So maybe having an alien partner wasn't such a bad

message maybe he really was living in some kind of treatment facility he still said strange
