Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Perhaps." he said allowing his hand to rest on her cheek for a while smiling warmly at her. "Wow your face feels so cold.." he said with some concern, noticing how scaley it felt too.

Settling down on the floor, sitting cross legged, he took one of her hands when she began to speak about what she liked. "I have to say, you have a beautiful singing voice Lana. I bet we could make some money if you sang and I played. You seem to match beats preatty well, I'm very impressed." he commented. "Well I like soft things, like bunnies or cats. Nature is something I enjoy for hours, and I make a preatty good chocolate brownie." he laughed blushing a bit. "I know I don't sound very manly..I've just always been more of a tenderhearted person." He said shyly.

"Well I'm not very into sports either. Though I don't mind a good joust every now and again." he chuckled. "I don't really like sour things, but I like spicy food. I don't mind the ocean either, in fact part of that song I used to help moist your skin, at the time, was created when I was sailing across the ocean on a ship. We ran into a siren along the way and the song removed a curse that was put upon her." he said nodding. "As a gift she enchanted it. So it's sort of a water spell. I can either cast water magic, heal, or do what I did to you." He grinned.

"I'm actually collecting elemental songs. I'm not very physically strong, but I've always felt that music pierces the heart more effectivly than a blade can. Oh listen to me ramble about things.." he said shyly.

Matthew chuckled. taking her hands he stretched out her arms gently. "The ocean is as big and blue as you can imagine." he said giving one of her hands a kiss. "It was preatty calm for the most part, but some of the sailors onboard said that the ocean got rough. Also it was just a simple trade vessel nothing too fancy." he replied with a nod. "Well...a siren is a cursed mermaid. She appears to be as beautiful and very enchanting. She somehow managed to board the ship during one night when I was sleeping. Her songs can hypnotize men..and they drain the souls of the living."He said biting his lip.

"There is a legend that says that if a mermaid's heart get's broken to a certain point she undergoes a deep depression and changes into a siren. I soothed her heart by playing her that song. Even when she was crying her sobs were beautiful. In fact they become gemestones known as Siren's Tears.." he said.

Reaching into a bag, he pulled out a beautiful tear shaped crystal that was about a big as his hand. It glittered with a deep joy and relief, along with a brillant beauty. "She changed back into a mermaid after that, and swore to marry me if she saw me again." he laughed. "Yet when she did, she was already married to a handsome merman and was pregnant with his child. It was rather odd bumping into her again.." he said looking away sadly.

"I hope all of my songs will calm the hearts of many one day. I hate seeing people sad or lonely..because it makes me sad and lonely too. That's why I care about you so much Lana." he said giving her a warm and tender smile.

"Oh I haven't been everywhere." he mused strumming his guitar gently, making a soothing melody. "I'm sure there are. The Fae exhist all over the world. Well assuming you would be considered one of the Fae creatures now. Most mermaids can become normal humans for a time. I remember sitting down with her and she told me that the magic doesn't last long and they need to be by some water or else they'll get sick, or change back and dry up." he shivered. "I think you're a bit different though. You look more fish like, in some way. Not to say you don't look beautiful. Wait a minute!" he said with a gasp.

"I think I know WHAT you are now Lana! I can't believe I hadn't figured this out for so long!" He said. "I think you are a mermaid..but a Deep Sea Mermaid. I've heard rumors that they glow in the dark and live in the more deeper depfhs of the ocean. I think they're supposed to be timid, but since you changed into one..or maybe I still could be wrong, that you've still got your soul and heart. What I'm trying to say is..Lana you're possibly a Deep Sea Mermaid with the knowledge of the Human world!" he smiled shyly.

"Oh and...adventures happen when we decide to wake up from our dreams. Everyday can be an adventure if you let it to be. Heck I mean just you changing into the beautiful woman you are is an adventure in itself."

Matt shook his head. "What I mean is...most mermaids are afraid of people. They rarely approach a Human unless they've fallen in love with them. You have an advantage because you've grown up as a human who's become a mermaid. So you aren't afraid of me or anything." he smiled patting her shoulder.

"Well I didn't mean to sadden you Lana, I don't think you'll need to worry about going that deep. Those kinds of mermaids, I hear, only go that deep because they're afraid of people." He said tenderly. "I'll find a way to have you travel with me, even if I have to buy a potion that allows you to become a Human for a short while, or find one that let's me breathe underwater for a while I will find a way!" he said with a nod.

"You're actually the first person I've told that story to. Not many people like hearing my tales." He blushed shyly. "T-Thank you Lana..it was nice talking to someone who's interested in my life. It's...it's very comforting to know that there are people out there who are willing to listen." Matthew then kisses her cheek out of greatfull respect.

Touching her belly he blushed at how scaley and how cold it felt. His hand must of felt warm because whatever was inside her flocked to his hand and rested there for a while. He got lost in it for a while. "Ooh...are you giving Ms. Lana trouble you silly little child!" he cooed a little before snapping back into relatiy, removing his hand, and staring her in the eyes blushind madly. "I-I-I"m sorry!"

"A-Anyway sure we can do that. It'll take a lot of concentration but I should be able to do it." he smiled at her looking away a bit embarassed.

"Well goodness." He blushed feeling her child swim within her. Closing his eyes. Matt got lost in the moment again. "How do you feel about having the child? You don't seem real nervous." He asked opening his eyes to look into hers. "You haven't mentioned it much."

Alfina was too busy trying to calm her roaring stomach and active kids, that she hardly noticed anything going on.
