I never thought I'd actually finish this. All too often a story will start out well, then abruptly stop, and I'm damned if I can get it going again.
For some reason, this one stirred from its long slumber ^__^
Once upon a time I started this for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
skylark97, and I wanted very much for it to be a liiiiitle bit different. Most selkie stories (that I've read) go one of two ways: either the human steals the skin and falls in love with the selkie and gives the skin back -- and the selkie leaves and is never seen again. Or the human and selkie fall in love, the human fears the selkie will leave for X reason and steals the skin, conflict ensues but happily ever after is eventually achieved.
My story started with the rough idea what if the selkie let their skins get stolen?
It all went downhill from there ^_~
Much love to Ki-chan, who did the beta'ing this go round ^__^
