Since there are selkies, couldn't there also be manateekies?
This is for the Manga/Anime Super Mini Repeating Contest [link] for the end of February, themed manatee. A manateekie boy slipping out of his skin to go get help from a landlubbin' healer, after being injured by boat propellers. Because when I think of manatees, first thing I think of are all the campaigns to get people to stop running them over with motorboats. Yeah..I was quite an environmentalist when I was a kid.
I think I want to color this with markers and colored pencils. Soz I'll have to get Ulrich to bring home his colored pencils on the weekend.. *pretty please*
yeah, it is kind of Xanthian. I was thinking of incorporating it into the Planet..you know, selkies in the north, manateekies in the tropics (and dugongies?? O.o), but I don't know yet. It might be fun to do something with the whole manatee/mermaid dealie too.

It sounds like something that could happen in Meris... or Xanth XP

One girl was called Jeanne Marie
Another little girl was called Felicity
Another little girl was Sallie Joy
The other was me
And I'm a boy.........
