The fish guy is mature he can't talk cus he's been in the ocean for a long time so he doesn't know how to communicate in human language.
and I don't really understand what ur saying (no offence I genuinely didn't understand this one comment) do u mean if the other guy wasn't a teacher it will be normal for them to be in a relationship cus the age difference is normal or what?
no? I said it's the maturity difference? we can have different opinions but this is a damn fact. The teacher is a grown 24 year old man and the mermaid hasn't even reach the age where 1 isn't the first number in it. Am I saying this can't happen. no? am I saying the teachers a fucking nonce though? yes.
Same thought. 19 and 24 was the age my grandparents met (and married) and it really was a "til death do us part" for them. My granny still misses him over 10 years later :(
So yea.. I don't think infantilizing 19 y/o will do any good. And 24 is also still an age where you are an uni student or do an apprenticeship etc. Realistically it's really not that big of a deal
"What I'm on there" way to be rude no I gen remember him only as the school nurse dude. Like he is in the nurse office, as his own, he comes to the trip as the schools nurse too iirc.
And *could* is a big word here. The gap isn't even big nor problematic at all. Like that's the last of issue. Damn it's just a story jfc
So you’re saying it’s weird because he could be his teacher that’s a hypothetical thing he’s not a teacher he’s a nurse and he’s not his student. Also he’s mature and he just can’t communicate. Has nothing to do with maturity. Also 24 is not that much older than 19 most 24-year-olds aren’t even “mature” I can see if the Merman was 17 or 16 He’s not even 18 he’s 19 years And will be turning 20 at some point
In an actual real life situation if he was an actual teacher, and that was his 19-year-old student, it would be inappropriate because of the position of power In the structure in the relationship being an authority figure
But that is not the case here and this is fictional
fine then I'll be simple. this mermaid iss a 19 he is still developing his frontal lobe the part of your brain that has a massive role in your decision making and common sense. Now he gets with a guy who already has that shit developed or is near to having it developed. think of the difference in the understanding of making decisive mature decisions between the both of them and the difference in just their level headness
Main couple is cute and has issues fr but side couple? mermaid is 19 and teacher is like 24
