[STARFISH]
Je sors à peine de mon trip "sirène" que l'inktober propose le thème #starfish et j'ai découvert que c'était très ennuyeux de dessiner des étoiles de mer alors j'ai refait une sirène. Encore!

Final message of The Little Mermaid?

“You can stay in the sun if you give up who you were.”

Ariel’s freedom comes not from being herself — but becoming acceptable.

That’s not a happy ending.
That’s a filtered one.

Ursula doesn’t die by magic.
She dies when Prince Eric rams a human ship through her body.

The queer-coded, femme Other is killed by colonial tech.
And that’s what clears the path for Ariel’s happy ending.

That’s not just a climax.
That’s a cleansing.

Ursula: “Use your body language.”

Ariel: Uses body language.

Ursula: “Wait what the hell—she’s better than I thought!”

Classic setup. Classic sabotage.

They never wanted her to win.

Funny moment in The Little Mermaid:

Ursula tells Ariel to use “body language”…

Then gets mad when Ariel almost succeeds with just that.

“She’s better than I thought!”

Oh you mean — she followed the rules you gave her?

Classic rigged system behavior.

Fourth bop: “Kiss the Girl”

Beautiful. Iconic. Problematic.

It’s a love song about kissing someone who can’t talk — and the lyrics say that’s okay.

“Don’t take a word, not a single word…”

Sebastian, my dude.

Silence ≠ consent.

Subtle brilliance in The Little Mermaid:
Ariel reaches past a sparkling gem to grab a torn patch of fabric for her collection.

She doesn’t want royalty.
She wants reality.

Her desire isn’t about wealth or power — it’s about belonging.

She’s not trying to conquer the surface.
She just wants to touch it.
