Truth of the matter is, Ariel is just.. all-knowledgable. You know the type: they know a little something about nearly everything. She'll spout off the littlest known fact, and well, I trust her to be telling the truth. (If you're lying Ariel.. I'll kill thee. Heh. Just kidding, of course.)
Something that must be known: Ariel might be one of my so-called "Disney buddies" (Jasmine being the other) but her name isn't pronounced Air-e-al, as in the movie. No, despite what many teachers might think, it's actually pronounced more like... R-eal. Oh, I do so enjoy spelling things the way they sound.
she also sees things in a rather intruiging light. i mean..seriously, how many people would have the brilliant insight to
proclaim that wisconsin is a unique state, because it is the only state to have both "con" and "sin" in it? hmm. so she's either incredibly
unique, or she just spends too much time thinking. (-;
