JiMel

JiMel is the het ship between Melody and Jim Hawkins from the Treasure Planet and The Little Mermaid fandoms.

Canon
As Melody and Jim are from different series and time periods, they have never met in canon. Even though a few Disney crossover video games could have the two crossing paths with each other or get them added to the same team, by the player's choice.

Both Jim and Melody have a habit of worrying about their mothers. Jim keeps getting into trouble with the law, while Melody's secret dives in the sea have Ariel searching the entire castle for her. Melody had heard stories about Atlantica but was told that it was "just an old fish tale." With the questions she had about the necklace she found, Melody goes in search of someone who could answer them. While Jim enjoyed hearing stories about Treasure Planet, and the pirates that used it as a strong hold for their treasure. As a child, he knew that its riches would make his and his mother's lives better. At first, Jim didn't know what the small, shiny orb was until him playing around with it allowed him to unlock the map's secrets. That showed him, and the two people with him at the time, a green hologram image of Treasure Planet. Similar to how Melody's gold shell-shaped necklace shows a magical image of Atlantica and its merfolk people, whenever it is opened.

As Jim's journey was about to begin, he meets the ship's cook and sometime after they become friends. Jim learns that he and half the crew are pirates, and Jim becomes heartbroken when he overhears John Silver say that he doesn't care about the young cabin boy. Melody faces a similar betrayal from Morgana, who turns Melody into a mermaid out of the "goodness of her heart." Morgana tricks her into stealing the Triton. On their journeys, both Jim and Melody each make a small and tall friend who isn't human. And both their friends help Jim and Melody complete their goals to find the pirate treasure and the powerful trident, later accompanying the two home where they meet their mothers.

Fanon
JiMel is a rather popular Disney crossover ship, however, other fans prefer to ship Jim with Melody's mother Ariel. Jariel is JiMel's rival ship in the fandom. Because Treasure Planet has a 18th century Steampunk/Sci-fi setting, fans have either Melody meeting Jim in his world, as she accompanies his journey to Treasure Planet, or has Jim residing in Melody's world, where she is either a human or mermaid when she meets Jim.
