gildedapples:moodboard: selkies (requested by @queenoftheskittleholics)selkies are creatures from irish and scottish folklore that took on the appearance of seals but could become human by shedding their skin. however, a selkie would have to be careful with her pelt once it was removed, as any man who found and hid it from her would have power over her. there were also tales of male selkies who charmed human women, especially ones in unhappy relationships. it was said that if a woman cried 7 tears into the sea, a selkie would come to her, shed his skin, and be with her. -- source link
