Also don't flounder get Like That only as adults? I heard somewhere that juveniles have normal eyes and then they rotate to one side or the other depending on which one the flounder settles down on.
That is the LEAST weird thing about larval flounders

But yes, most of them start out with eyes in the normal places and one migrates over

Carangiformes. This order contains the aggressively predatory dolphinfishes, and remoras, which have a sucker-like dorsal fin that allows them to attach to a larger host animal.
Pleuronectiformes. This order is made up of flatfishes, wuch as the flounder and halibut.

Little Mermaids at the Laundromat 
I saw a lot of other artists drawing both versions of Ariel and I thought it looked like fun. So, I made some funky, silly art with bright colors. TBH, The Little Mermaid was never my favorite story, but the aesthetic of the 1989 was really gorgeous. I’m excited to see all the new designs and art in the new film with Halle Bailey.

thoughts on flounders?
Asking the important questions today, I see!
Flounder are SO weird and we are way too normal about them. They evolved to have both eyes on one side. It’s absurd.
