Erik is alone at sea, mutated to breathe underwater with gills behind his ears (I mean come on, perfect role for a shark!!). He gets captured and put in a cage, where a trader named Charles gets far too interested in his mutation, and sets him free providing he takes Charles and his little 10 year old sister Raven on his boat and takes them to dry land. Erik only said that so he’d let him out, he has no idea nor cares where dry land is, so he ends up with Charles and Raven unwanted on his boat.
Charles was a trader, so he can’t fish, can’t fight, can’t even swim, completely useless, and Erik frequently threatens to just throw them both overboard. One night Charles puts Raven to sleep inside then tells Erik he’s not completely useless, there is one thing he can do for him, for Erik has been at sea alone his whole life, so Charles proceeds to strip right there and then under the moonlight.
Erik looks him up and down, never seeing another naked human body, and has no idea what Charles is doing.
I would read the shit out of this.
I’ll watch anything: Please tell me there is a cherik Waterworld AU out there.
