Disney Deception

So as I was listening to a Disney songs playlist the other day, the song "Kiss the Girl" came on, I started thinking about The Little Mermaid and realized that I had never thought through how the movie would have gone if during that part Ariel hadn't been thwarted and had gotten her kiss. It's an aggravating part of the movie, but if Eric had kissed her it would have been super awkward. "Yes, now I can stay human and stay with you!" "You can talk?! What do you mean stay human?!" "Oh, about that, I was kinda  a mermaid and temporarily traded my voice away..." Awkward. The way it plays out, Eric chooses her knowing what she is, which is much more sound of a decision. But there are no repercussions for her deception, like there are often not repercussions for violence.
