Summary
“You,” he states, and swallows. “You can… you can become him, right? You could… you could be Mydei. Just so I can practice. I’ll get it out, the whole thing, and you can, I don’t know, tell me if I sound like half the idiot that I feel like? Maybe?”
Cipher watches him for a long moment. The alleyway is very quiet, an owl hooting somewhere overhead. “You want me,” she repeats slowly, “to become the man you love… so you can confess to me.”
(cipher does not, in fact, transform into mydei. she just goes and gets the real one.)

Summary
Phainon is an ordinary fisherman. He lives the mundane life—wake up, eat, fish, sleep, repeat. He longs for adventure—like the pirates in the fairytales he hears while passing by the storytellers entertaining children at the bustling ports—but those are only myths.
Until he comes across a pirate ship's nets kidnapping a mermaid—no, merman. Who is... absolutely ethereal, captivating Phainon's heart in one fell swoop.
So he kidnaps the merman from the pirates. And falls in love.

Summary
He was thrown into the sea as an infant. Witnessing this cruel fate, the gods bestowed on him something they deemed merciful and kind. His body has been transformed for the sake of survival, his legs morphing into a fishtail to endure the cruel, dark waters.
Decades have long passed, and tales regarding the lost Immortal son of Gorgo dissolved into that of a myth. That was, until a young Chrysos Heir tried to rescue a mysterious man trapped in the sea, only to realise he was the one needing saving.
OR. Mydei was a merman who saved Phainon and caught his heart.

Summary
The soft humming of a lullaby prevents him from pondering. Like the coming of a shark waiting to feast, the same voice reverberates under the water, soft and soothing like a music box, but deep and pulling like an anchor in the depths, as Phainon fights the urge to sleep. But what little can he hang on to when there is no point at all? A siren song works exactly like this: it relieves you of all conviction, and thus the listener turns into nothing more than an inebriated husk, only wishing to enact according to their innermost desires regardless of any consequence. Phainon slips in and out of that hazy state while he listens still, unable to muster any desire not to want to hear more—and, really, he would never want to.
phainon is the twin brother of the king who is sent away to die at sea. mydeimos is the siren who saved him, who sings to lure his victims and kisses them like death's final embrace. this is a story of what it means to love the sea in all of its beauty, and all of its terror.

Summary
“Scary beach guard.”
That was what people often called Mydei. He did not mind the reputation because it kept others away and stopped them from littering. But one day, instead of trash, he found something different washed ashore, something that felt more like treasure. Then more began to appear, and he started to wonder if the waves themselves were leaving them for him.
