The Little Fish And The Sun It Adored

Summary:

“There’s a little legend around these parts. A myth you could say. It’s not much, just a story about a fish and it’s love for the sun. Makes for a good song when you’re bored. What’s that? Is the the story true? Hmmm... it’s probably been changed over the years, y’know, as old myths are. But... even the strangest myths are based on truth, aren’t they?”

Work Text:

Let me sing you a song lads

About a fish with scales that shined like jewels

And the beautiful sun that it adored

 

Once upon a time

there was a ocean fish

The fish loved sunshine

And was tired of the abyss

So it journeyed to shore

To the sun it adored

 

Sunshine, sunshine!

the little fish cried

You make my scales glitter

And my heart set alight

So stay a little longer

Stay a little longer with me

Oh! Sun I adore

 

The fish learned how to breath

Evolving, it grew lungs

Yet there was no reprieve

For it would need more ‘cause

Up there, the escape death

It would need to grow legs! (Ha!)

 

Sunshine, sunshine!

the little fish cried

You make my scales glitter

And my heart set alight

So stay a little longer

Stay a little longer with me

Oh! Sun I adore

 

No one knows what happened next

Did it grows legs? Maybe its dead

Personally, I think it turned into a beautiful siren

And spent the rest of its days on that shore

Under the sun, that it adored
