A majority of this story I flipped a coin to decide stuff. I flipped a coin on whether the main character is male, I also flipped a coin on what sex Selkie is. For those who might not like it; eh, it was a fifty-fifty chance, wouldn't make a difference even if they were a straight couple or both girls.
I also read a lot of tales of Selkies and notices how they speak of Selkie Marriage but never what the marriage ritual is, so heads up for later chapters, I made it up. I actually made up a lot of things to fill in gaps of information I couldn't find on Selkies. I kinda feel like J.K Rowling doing this.
The Story will be set into different points of view, although not in the first person, so most should be in Mathias' point of view in the third person, some in Selkie's. Think of it like the Knife of Never Letting Go Series (I recommend reading all the books! (even if the third one sucks (that's my opinion))), but in the Third Person.
If any of it is confusing at first, tell me in this chapter's comment section, and I will fix it to make more sense.
The idea isn't mine. If you guys saw my Pinterest comment then you know that I got the inspiration from. Needless to say, I got it from (who I presume are Tumblr users) howtobandyourmonster and kurara-black-blog. So yeah... their idea but I'm writing a story on it, give them credit for it.
UPDATE
Yeah, I tend to procrastinate a bit, and since School is back... yeah...
I have the next chapter (2) though up, so don't worry, I'll update soon.
Let's see, it's Wednesday, so I'll update on Friday when I can stay up.
UPDATE #2
SORRY!!! I CAN'T UPDATE! I HAVE TO DO THINGS!
I SWEAR I'M NOT AVOIDING THIS.UPDATE #3
I have the story planned, but school is really distracting. Also, for the third chapter, it's kinda hard for me to picture... I planned the drama for this story and the ending, but the beginning is always the hardest part of a story to me. Yeah... things are confusing at the moment, so the first person to respond to this update; calm or nicely buzz off?
UPDATE #4
Recently, stuff had gone down, which kind of drained me of inspiration, but you guys have Chapter 3, I'm proud of myself for that.
UPDATE #5
Okay, Panamabubbles designed a cover for me! The Greatest thing that's happened so far!
Anyway, I might post a chapter soon, I just found my plans for this story, so cross your fingers, I'm on a roll! Kinda.
UPDATE #6
Woah it's been a long time since I'v been on this page!
I honestly forgot about updating this story. But School, ya know?
Let's see, I'll try to update soon, I literally have half my lesson due in three days.
I'll try to see what I can do on the weekend.
