Valentine's Day. I wanted to write something longer but couldn't find any motivation… sorry about that.
Valentine's Day wasn't exactly something Veridia understood the hype about. You don't need a day to celebrate love, if it's something you just do. That said she had got something for Rita - she'd managed to gather a small jar of Goblin shark teeth, Rita had mentioned a couple of potions she wanted to try but couldn't due to the lack of Goblin Shark teeth to be found around Mako.
The timing was purely coincidental. If it had been the middle of June Veridia had gotten a hold of them she would have given them to Rita then. It just so happened she found them before Valentine's Day and she only just got them wrapped up in time for Valentine's Day so it made sense to give them to Rita on Valentine's Day.
Land people gave flowers, and chocolates and cute little teddies, Mermaids gave shark teeth. In pretty glass jars. What better way to show someone you love them? Veridia had spent a fair few years back and forth on land but had yet to buy into the whole having things for the sake of having them. Mermaids were more practical about their belongings. Generally. Her wife was not one of those Mermaids, as evidenced by the sheer amount of general 'stuff' in the grotto downstairs.
She would never change it though, it was just part of who Rita was, the Mermaid who had her heart.
