Mermay 2023 – Day Six – Mushroom

Mermay 2023 – Day Six – Mushroom

One of the biggest problems I have with the prompt list is the number of things that are not mermaid related. For example today I asked myself, when would a mermaid ever see a mushroom?

Since I’m not aware of any kind that grows in the ocean, I needed to find another way to do it. I ended up going up with a fake one, either from a playground or an amusement park, that Jennifer finds in an underwater junkyard.

I plan to have it show up as a prop in Jennifer, June, and Vivian’s, clubhouse in future pictures.
