Her memories were beads jumbled loose in a box
Their problem was swiftly pushed away, but it seemed that this boy in particular was being very.... particular.
His response was blunt and straight the point, something Delta could admire if it weren't for the fact that it was absolutely hilarious and completely wrong. A correction was added to the end and she found herself smiling. Oh how wrong he was, time to show him exactly what a mermaid looks like, but first... fancy stick thing!
A parasol is quite a silly name, as is an umbrella. Umbrellas were things she had heard of, used to block away rain. It was pointless for a mermaid to own one seeing as she was constantly wet. Rain was just non salt water, that's all. "Interesting. It's a very cool invention. Is there a reason why you cant use an umbrella?" It was a genuine question.
Once her question had been asked she decided to address the whole 'mermaids aren't real thing'. "Oh yeah, sorry that I didn't respond immediately. Wanted to hear you out first." And then she adjusted herself so that she could lift up her lower tail out of the water. Bright scaled shimmered in the light and she made a show to splash the water a bit. "Any other proof you need?" There's a giggle to her voice and a grin plastered on her face.
