The prompt was just blue and I had dug out my fountain pen from my school days. They really used to make stuff tougher back then. So as it had plenty of blue ink left in it I just wanted to reverse the classic tale of a siren wooing a man and do it the other way around. I hadn't used ink in this manner (apply and then use some water) and realized fast that while it does react to water it is in no way like watercolors. Had to go over her whole dress again because it got VERY blurry. I had lots of fun and might see myself taking part in inktober with just my fountain pen? We'll see ~~

worked on an A4 to do this more justice and kind of used it to put a nice ending note to the end of Mermay. I know it is not the last last day but you know what I mean.
