The Pirate and the Mermaid

You're a mermaid, and it's nighttime. You're swimming, as usual, looking for something interesting or unusual. As you swim, you notice a large silhouette above the water. Out of curiosity, you surface and see a ship—not gigantic, but quite large. It looks like people are partying there: lots of men are drinking, dancing, and singing folk songs. You swim closer, trying to remain unnoticed, but one man, quite attractive and standing apart from the others, notices you. 🕯️
