Modified Little Mermaid AU - Based on @LarkSweetSong 's Drawing of Matthew and Stephanie as Prince Eric and Ariel, respectively
*It 's technically crack, since they 're both written out of character. At least, that 's what I currently think, especially since my writing skills are really rusty.*
It had been a few days since the mysterious brown haired woman mysteriously arrived into Prince Matthew 's life.
She had been found wandering alone along the shoreline of his kingdom a while ago. His trusted adviser and confidant, Jason, had alerted him about the woman. Jason had sent the errand boy, Chris, to retrieve the woman and bring her back to the castle.
But when she arrived, they quickly realized that communication was going to be a

The way her hair moved in the gentle breeze. Her careful steps on the sand.
Unbeknownst to him, as he watched her, his gaze softened and a small smile graced his lips. But as he watched her maneuver back towards the castle, he could feel his heart beat quicken. This woman was only here for a couple of days. By all accounts, a stranger. But still, this woman filled him with such happiness and joy and he had no idea why. It didn 't make sense to him. They had never met before this.
They might be strangers now, but he was determined to change that.
Prince Matthew quickly made his way down from his balcony and flew down the castle steps, in the hopes that he could catch the mysterious miss before she disappeared again into the castle. As he rounded the corner, his brown eyes caught side of a blue blur heading towards him. He slowed his pace as he stuck out his hand to lightly grab ahold of her shoulder, and softly curled his fingers around her arm. He could feel her slow down, stop and saw her turn to face him.
"Hey," he said with a small smile. "I apologize for my manners. You 're my guest, but I never got your name."
He let of her arm and extended a friendly hand out to her. "I 'm Matthew, but you can call me Matt."
The woman returned his smile before she extended her hands out to him, but she did not shake it. Instead, she gently cradled Matthew 's hand in her own. Her right hand was underneath his right hand, the hand he had extended to her, while her left hand
He was gone now, her mother and sister too. The Princess was the closest thing to family she had left.
The Little Mermaid showed multiple concepts of social psychology. Prince Eric decides he wants to find his own bride, not have one provided for him which leads to him and Ariel developing passionate love. The movie displays the ideals for males and females and what people define as physically attractive. These physical attractiveness ideals are found in Ariel, Prince Eric, and Triton. Ariel is not like the other mermaids since she dreams of being a human. Her father and Sebastian try to bring Ariel back into the merfolk community since she is resisting normative social influence. Ariel in the end of the movie had conformed to the human society, allowing the humans to tell her how she is supposed act by watching them having which in turn had an influence on her.
"I...I'm Marcie," the girl introduced herself, nervously, deciding, for now, to be happy that it wasn't what she feared.
They embraced, and nothing but pure exhilaration flowed through Hunith. Matthew deserved good fortune, and not even his marriage would sever their bond. She was blessed to have such a wonderful friend in her life, and they would continue to be there for one another, time after
The princess began to weep, for her lover was to die or to marry a woman she despised. She flew up and out of her seat, and she ran as fast as her feet could take her; she could not bear to see her lover’s fate. She knew the fair maiden was behind the door he was to open, and she wanted so badly to be standing in her place. She must find a way to meet him as he opened the door.
“You haven’t changed a bit. Hey everybody! Hope you’re all doing well!” The guy said. “You’re new. What’s your name?”
She felt deceived, confused and delighted. As the time passed, her feelings changed towards resentment and anger. She asked herself: why would she care and obsess with a stranger? The stranger connoted a friendship, but robbed her of this opportunity, her desire and feeling. This is the stranger’s nature, bother us, lie and disappoint us.
The princess's relationship with the young man, based on trust, saved his life. They fell in love and were very happy. For example, "This royal maiden was well satisfied with her
One of the tour guides appeared and began rounding up the guests. The mystery girl sprang up to speak to the man and woman. The woman smiled, nodded and handed the girl her camera. The family arranged themselves on a bench, and Mystery Girl snapped a picture. Taking the camera, the man thanked her, and guided his family to the line of people entering the castle. Mystery Girl fell into step with them, bouncing with a child-like eagerness and chatting with the younger girl. As if she were one of the family, Mystery Girl followed them inside, just as bold as she could be.
After Aurora there hasn’t be another disney princess for 30 years. After this long silence there came a new era of disney princesses, The Renaissance Era (1989–2000). During this Renaissance the princesses became smarter, more independent and more adventurous. The core of the stories were not just about finding love, but the adventures, self-sacrifice and self-discovery became more important. Ariel is the first
Shelley grew up dreaming of mystical creatures who lived beneath the sea. Her aunt insisted on the existence of men with fishtails. But as an adult, Shelley tries to forget such nonsense, to avoid becoming another loony in a long line of perceived psychotic women. So, Shelley will choose not to believe in everything she's been taught about underwater people, destiny, and cosmic connection because it's just plain crazy. To believe that men could come with gills and fishtails is simply absurd. Until of course, Shelley is saved by one such man, a seaman, who will do everything he can to make her love him like crazy.
He explained that the ocean, “...is very, very deep; so deep, indeed, that no cable could fathom it: many church steeples, piled one upon another, would not reach from the ground beneath to the surface of the water above” (Andersen). This thought could almost be frightening to some members of the audience, especially those who already fear the ocean. Both fairytales, have set a mood before the first person has even spoke, Andersen’s having a sense of eeriness, while Disney’s demonstrates pure bliss. Throughout Disney’s version of The Little Mermaid, numerous upbeat songs are played. For example, while the little mermaid is spending time with the prince, her friend sebastian, in an attempt to make the prince kiss her, begins to sing, “Sha la la la la la, my oh my, look like the boy too shy, ain't gonna kiss the girl”
“Oh, who’s this? Hello, what’s your name?” She addressed the boy sitting next to me as I was getting up.
Hans Christian Andersen’s story “The Little Mermaid” addresses many dark ideas that Disney’s film “The Little Mermaid” avoids. The avoidance of dark topics by Disney can be attributed to Disney targeting a different audience as well as Disney wanting to keep a happily ever after on the story of Ariel. The role of suffering in Andersen’s stories is attributed to the desire of young girls for something in which they should not or cannot have. This desire propels the characters in Andersen’s stories to make decisions that lead to them losing their own identity as well as their families. In Anderson’s story “The Little Mermaid” sees a Prince on her fifteenth birthday and she ends up saving his life when his ship sinks (Andersen, 220-222). After
The air was filled with the aroma of white roses. Muffled cries wondered in the distance, the sun brightly shined through the green oaks that branched over the glass church. A couple standing side-by-side, one wearing a beautiful elegant white silk gown, the other, a dashing, and well-fitted black wool suit. To the right of the groom was the best man, blushing, for the woman standing next to the bride captivated him. He couldn’t keep his eyes off her for her beauty was mesmerizing. At the same time the woman couldn’t stop glancing back at him. She looked down at the bouquet blushing for she has never seen such an elegant man star at her before. It was as if the ocean where meeting the shore for the first time. They where strangers, but something about the way they looked at each other and the aura they projected triggered an unexplainable connection as if they have been together for centuries.
