Josiah nodded to each member of the crew as they walked back up the plank onto the ship. Withdrawing the plank, he set up too his tower to start the ship. Pets, huh? He thought, eyes glazing over each one. A hawk, some cats, and a lizard. Interesting.
(What about storm?)
(Storm would be simpler, all it would need is someone to release the energy. It’s harder to control, but easier to use.)
They were soon waving Oynx goodbye and settling in with their new pets - all except Josiah, who was loving over his crystal up in the crow's nest. Meanwhile, Houston had locked himself in his cabin and let Ivory out.
"Hey, girlie girl. Heyyy." He crooned to the snake, letting it twirl around his hands while looking around the room for some nesting material.
He managed to scrounge up a wooden crate, some newspapers, and wood chippings. He arranged them inside the crate and gently set Ivory down. She looked up at him, almost inquisitively.
"Mice, alrighty. Stay here, my girl." He put the lid on the crate and got up off his knees to go scrounge for rodents before the cats could get at them.
(Wait do you have a pet snake?)
(It was ok for me to smuggle it i guess so yay)
(Yeah he smuggled it. Also they ain’t leaving Onyx yet. I said they’re docking overnight earlier.)
(Oopsies. Well, Houston's still in the ship.)
( No I mean do you have a pet snake in real life?)
( IM SORRY,
I GET REALLY MAD
give me a minute.)
(Its fine
I want one terribly but no I don't have one, they're my favoritttee animal evarrr)
( Ok,

Night fell across Onyx. Everyone was huddled up un there homes reading as it was Onyx tradition to do so. Well everyone except Cicada and her crew. She was wearing all black to blend in with the night sky. They had some raiding to do. First stop, free the animals.
Houston reached into a cobwebby corner, cringing as he pulled out a disgusting dead mouse. Hiding it in his satchel, he tiptoed back to his cabin to feed poor, hungry Ivory.
Zoe threw up arm out, letting her Osprey go out on a test fly and let it get some fish.
(Lots of people will ask to join soon Shade, they are fine with you kicking them out if need be)
