Howdy all. I'm Erin. I am one of those stereotypical people in the midst of a mid-twenties existential crisis, where I have a newly-acquired and very hard-earned university degree and now I can't seem to do anything WITH it, so I'm stuck working as a cashier. Woo. At a liquor store. Double woo. What I'd really like to do is be a writer or a comic artist. Or maybe a contract killer. A girl can dream. Sigh. Anyhow. Amongst other things (many other things), I adore: Glee, Harry Potter, Merlin, Doctor Who, Supernatural, How I Met Your Mother, White Collar, The New Normal, KLAINE, Chris Colfer, Darren Criss, Jonathan Groff, Matt Bomer, Tim Hiddleston, comic book-based movies, comic books in general, and gay marriage (YAY!).

Star Trek Parallels
The original story of the little mermaid is that she must kill the prince in order to be human, and in the end, she loves him too much and kills herself instead.
The artwork is too great not to reblog.
Ok, ok - important expansion: she only has to kill the Prince because the deal was if he fell in love with her she could be human forever, and he didn’t. By which I mean, he was a good person and genuinely nice to her, but he didn’t fall in love. He fell in love with someone else, also perfectly nice - not the seawitch in disguise, fu Disney. The Mermaid is told she can only return to the sea now if she kills the Prince. She goes into the room where he and his lover lie sleeping and they look so beautiful and happy together that she can’t do it.
That’s why she kills herself. And because it was a noble act she returns to sea as foam.
One moral of the story was that women shouldn’t fundamentally change who they are for love of a man, and in theory Han Christian Anderson wrote it for a ballerina with whom he fell in love. She was marrying someone else who wouldn’t let her dance.

#why why why would you say that #feeling all the feels and they’re soul-crushing
