 This is the home of two merpeople, Aphrodite and Fleur. Here they live, bring their friends, hang out and mainly just have fun. Only invited guests are allowed in here, and of course Aphrodite and Fleur themselves. People that may post here:
- Your Love Only (with all her mers)
- Sunndance (so far, with Orion only)

Finally, back from Lunera, Aphrodite is back at home again and she has brought Orion with her. They're sitting on the couch and Aphrodite gives him some juice to drink. ''Enjoy, I hope you like it. Now I'll go see if Fleur is ready already.'' she says, and swims to the bathroom where Fleur is fixing her make-up and doing her nails. Aphrodite thinks she's crazy, the second Fleur sees there's a person who is of male gender, she runs away and doesn't come back for at least an hour, why she spends all that time ''fixing'' her looks. Which is actually absolutely unneccessary, 'cause Fleur always looks flawless.
Aphrodite goes into the bathroom and finds Fleur there, sitting on a small wooden bench while putting nailpolish on her last nail, she says:
''Aph, why didn't you tell we were going to have company?''
''Because I didn't know, I just met him today. And, you know what? I actually really like him, I think I might be in love.'' she says, looking amused to see the shocked expression on Fleur's face. ''She must have thought I never meet a guy I like, and I don't think she ever dared to dream of me falling in love. And look at me now... knowing a guy for a short while and I'm totally crazy about him. Strange...'' she thinks and then gets dragged back to reality by Fleur, who asks how they met.
Excited, she begins to tell everything, from the second they met and she ran away, until the moment they found each other again and she took him along with her, to this very home.

Orion sips his juice and nods when Aphrodite wanders off to find her roommate. He takes the chance to look around the main room of the mermaid's home and to take it all in. It reminds him a lot like a good deal of his home since Angelina was the one to decorate everything but his room. He whistles a little to himself as he waits, soft and upbeat.

While Orion is still in the living room, Fleur insists on putting lipstick on Aphrodite's lips.
''They'll make them look fuller, I promiss you'll look great!''
''Silly sister.'' she thinks. ''Why doesn't she spice herself up a little?''
Impatiently she puts on another layer and steps back.
''You look great, Aph. Just a tiny bit of eyeshadow too.'' she says and applies a few thick layers of dark brown eyeshadow. She thinks for some time. ''Looking awesome. But perhaps we should..''
''NO!'' Aphrodite screams. ''Not ever. I look ridiculous, like a clown! And I'm taking it off right NOW.''
Fleur can see she's serious and when Aphrodite wants to grab some make-up remover, she quickly graps her arm, turns her around and pushes her throught the door, into the living room.
Then she turns to the mirror and looks at herself. "Hmm.. not quite perfect...'' she says with a soft voice and she starts to remove a little bit of eyeshadow, totally forgetting about Aphrodite and Orion.

Aphrodite almost falls into the living room when Fleur suddenly turns her around and gives her a firmly push in the back, right through the door. For a moment, she wants to turn around, run back into the bathroom and hide forever. But she knows she can't, Orion has seen her already.
She realizes she looks ridiculous and starts to blush.
''Erm.. don't pay any attention to me, please. Fleur wanted me to try a new look..'' she says, while being surprised she actually found words to say. She blushes even more and looks to the ground, afraid of what Orion will say.

Orion stands when she enters the room, having always been told it's polite to do so. He smiles and looks her over. "You look great," he says, meaning it. "I mean, you looked fine...you looked wonderful before too," he stutters, suddenly finding himself in that place where he's trying to compliment her but is failing miserably. "I mean, The new look is fine, but I liked the old one too."

Hearing Orion's reacting, she feels even worse. He's stuttering and looks quite uncomfortable. ''I knew it!'' she says to herself. ''It looks horrible, he just wants to seem nice, but he hates it! Oh, god, I'm gonna KILL Fleur!''
She tries to think of a way to respond to Orion, but she doesn't know. She just feels so stupid. Just when she thinks she'll die of shame, Fleur walks in again. Of course, she's looking flawless as always and it makes Aphrodite even more insecure.
''Hello Orion.'' Fleur says. ''Sorry it took so long'' she apologizes, while smiling and trying to look her best. She continues talking: ''Now, tell me, I'm interested: Who are you? Please tell be a bit more about yourself!'' and she goes to sit next to Orion. She tries to avoid to look at Aphrodite in the meantime, 'cause she seems to be quite angry. Fleur has no idea why, she helped her, didn't she? What was wrong with Aph? ''Well, she's probably just moody today.'' she thinks and then focusses on Orion's reply again.

Orion gapes at Aphrodite. "No, no," he shakes his head. "It's really very nice. You look beautiful!" he bites his lip. "Really nice," he assures her, nodding to make his point.
When Fleur comes in he smiles at her as well and sits back down. "Nice to meet you," he says. "Well there's not too much to tell you about really. My sister and I moved here some years ago, I work as a hunter and fisherman and I like sports and games and things. How about you? I know your name is Fleur, Aphrodite told me a few things about you."

Fleur laughs. ''Well, I'm afraid there's even less to know about me. I can't remember anything from my childhood. A human found me someday and brought me here. I still remember her, but that's all I know about my past, I'm afraid.'' she says.
She thinks this mer is nice. Probably not a guy she could ever fancy, but, well. He's nice for Aphrodite. He seems like a real sweetheart, but he better not hurt Aph or she'll get angry. She stands up to get herself a drink. ''Do you want another drink?'' she asks politely.
''No, Fleur. I think we have to go.'' Aphrodite interrupts.
''Titiana should be finished working now. Will you come with me?'' She asks Orion. She must stop Fleur from talking, before she might say something stupid. And besides that, when Fleur's around she doesn't know what to say or do anymore. Everything seems so stupid, compared to what Fleur does. She must get out of here, now!

Orion listens to Fleur, nodding and listening but watching Aphrodite out of the corner of his eye. When Fleur asks if he wants another drink he almost says no faster than Aphrodite does. He nods. "Yeah we have plans to meet this lady named Titania," he agrees. "I'd still love to go," he tells Aphrodite. He stands and turns to Fleur though. "Someday I have to introduce you to my sister, I think you two will get along really well," he says.

''Oh really?'' Fleur asks. She's curious to meet that woman, but she guess she has to wait. Just as unannounced as they came, Orion and Aphrodite decided to go. Fleur swims towards the window to wave at them while they leave, thinking of how wonderfull it would be to see Aphrodite really dating someone. ''Maybe...'' she thinks. ''Someday..''

Orion nods. "Absolutely, I'm sure you two will get along!" He waves goodbye as he and Aphrodite take their leave, swimming along on the way to the school to meet Titania.
