This is not my story, but I had to share it with you all because it absolutely blew me away.

It's a "what-if" retelling of TLM where Ariel never signed Ursula's contract and found the power within herself to become human. I'm curious as to what you think about it. It's not done in a typical fanfic style, kinda just brainstorming and coming up with plot points as it is, as the person who wrote this didn't intend to sit down and write a "fic" about TLM, but I really like it a lot.

This is a really interesting concept. I think this would actually make an interesting novel, maybe not even afiliated with Disney's TLM, but inspired by the original tale with even more character and world building. But even still, imagining this as a TLM fanfic is really fun.

solarlunarxiii I agree! It'd make an excellent novel, I'd love to read more stories that are inspired by TLM!
arielluva222 isn't it great?! I sent a little note to Shana on tumblr telling her how much I loved and appreciated the story and she was so sweet! Told me it put a big smile on her face
