Histioteuthis was the name that crawled through her veins other than her birth given name, Diana; she was a vivid reddish pink.
Her white spots clung to her slippery flesh in an almost adorable way; she was wild and free with every last one of her tentacles despite whatever anyone else said or thought.
Diana's commonly known name to many land dwellers that shuddered at the thought was the Cockeyed Squid.
She had one normal sized, round blue eye which she'd often believed that if you stared into it all of her emotions and thoughts were far too vivid while her other eye was tubular, yellow and twice as big.
Her blue eye was sunken in while her yellow eye protruded far too eagerly.
Despite her appearance that had both people shuddering that found it far too grotesque, and a few admirers for her exquisite though unique kind of beauty, she was drawn almost entirely to a girl that was far more human than she'll ever be.
The girl in question went by the name Akko and seemed gorgeous with her long brown hair that sloped right above her bright green tail and with her fingers so carefully arranged in soft ways.
Akko was everything that Diana couldn't be, but wished for.
Her love of the mergirl was not to be accepted as all envious or admiring sea creatures never could have a mermaid even if she listened to them or spoke to them.
Diana was content enough to watch from a distance and long for a love far too out of reach for her lifetime as she dreamed of scaly tails and soft skin that felt so right against every last suction cup of hers.
