Ariel's cheeks turn pink at Megan's response to her thought and she at least has the grace to look apologetic.
Right. Dog? What a funny word! Huh. Oh! Yes! Where is Europe? Is it far?
Her eyes avert downwards when Dick asks where they met. That's...sort of the thing… Um...well...I rescued him when his ship hit a bad storm. ...but he never technically met me…
Her face goes red with the confession. This all seemed like such a good idea at the time. She had made the mistake of underestimating how difficult Ursula was going to make this for her. She made the mistake of being naive enough to believe that they would both be playing fair, not just Ariel. Her expression falls.
He's never going to have time to fall in love with me by the time we find him...is he?
That thought comes out loud and clear because she wants them all to know it's less a thought to herself and more a question; a reality check.
