This is fantastic. It's one of my favorite parts of the movie--so very dynamic--but no one ever portrays it! Thank you for this! It's very beautifully done! :3

In the original tale, the mermaid has her tongue cut out rather than her vocal cords magically removed. lol

I know. I read the original story. The fact she had to cut her own tail into legs and when she did get to land it would feel like she was walking on shards of glass constantly. I think that was a bigger price to pay than what was shown in the Disney. But it us a Disney so ya can't expect too much violence

Er...I don't remember reading the story and it saying that the mermaid actually cut her own tail into legs. I do recall reading that it said that the witch told her that when her tail becomes a pair of legs, it would feel as if a sword were slicing through the middle of her tail. But yeah....
