JUST LET THEM HAVE IT IM BEGGING YOU - Tumblr Posts

Oooh my goodness I can so image that 🥹

Wrecker would absolutely love it. He would go full in with sparkles and shells and flower crowns, he would be the best role player ever, never missing a beat and gasping at the right time !

Hunter is not too far behind, although he feels best to stay a bit in the shadows to let Omega shine, following her lead and responding to her interactions, but mostly beaming at her having so much fun...

Tech is the reluctant player. He systematically partakes but would only be following around with his datapad, barely looking up but also following the plot very carefully, and letting Omega decorate his knee pads with algae or something and answering her questions with a sigh (« Yes the sea does look very blue today, your Majesty. ... As on any other sunny day where the red part of the light spectrum gets absorbed by the water to leave only the blue part visible- » *cue elbow to the ribs from Echo*).

And speaking of Echo, the man may be severe with his younger brother(s) regarding Mermaid Protocol™️, but deep down he is mortified at the idea of role playing. He is too stiff and too soldier-y in his answers, can't help but cringe every time he has to speak or act. But he'll be damned if he ruins this for Omega, so he'll power through and do his very best to ignore Fives dying of laughter in a corner of his mind.

As for Crosshair... Well. He would rather get quartered by a rancor than touch mermaid-role-play with a pole and goes AWOL the second Omega opens the mouth to ask her brothers to play. Instead, he has developed his own little game : he'll wait at a good distance until his siblings have really gotten into it, then will go in the water unseen and quietly swim to where Omega is, and then will grab her and drag her to the open sea as she shrieks and laughs and tries to escape while his brothers swim after them to try and catch « the shark » to save the mermaid princess.

Okay, but can we all agree that Omega would 100% be obsessed with mermaids. Like sometimes on the Marauder she steals Tech's datapad to binge watch H2O just add water. Wrecker would 100% watch it with her and love the drama. Hunter would have the theme tune stuck in his head 24/7 and occasionally catch himself humming it. Tech would give her a drawn out lecture about how "this is not beneficial education blah blah blah" when he catches her watching it, Echo would then tell him to shut up and leave her be. Crosshair debates launching the datapad out an airlock, but he settles on just hiding it around the ship. She's no ordinary girl after all 🤷‍♀️
