"Can I take you home with me?," you ask as you continue to stare at the mermaid. Your gaze mostly at her almost perfectly round and firm breasts as they were exposed to the air, her nipples nice and pink. However, you did take some time to look the rest of her over as well.
She did seem a bit more fish-like than you had initially glimpsed, with a fin on either side of her shin and two more on top of her thigh as well as a fin on either arm from her wrist to her elbow. All of them were the same shade of blue as her tail was.
"Oh, sure, if you can manage to carry me... You see, my tail isn't really meant for land travel," she said before a small giggle escaped from her as her large caudal fin flapped against the floor that she was lounging on, using her elbows for support.
You decide to at least attempt it. You place one arm under her back and the other under the bend in her tail, the closest thing the mermaid had to a knee, ready to try to carry her in a bridal style.
However, you find that as soon as you lift up, she was heavier than she looked. You somehow manage to lift her up into the air though still a bit strained, her arms wrapping around your shoulders and her caudal fin flapping about in response. A wide smile was on her face as if she was happy to leave this place.
