"Daso, I can tell you about it later. For now, let's just work on repairs."

"Fine by me," Cicada walked away to go check on some of the remaining riggings.

Leah nodded in Kameo's direction, narrowing her eyes at the sun's rays. She looked upwards towards the masts and pulled herself up to fix the rigging. After climbing for a few moments, Leah looked down dizzy from the heights. Just. . . don't look down. She told herself, shaking her head and pushing childhood memories away.

Silver worked on new planks for the ship. Though it was strange, he felt comfort in talking to the ship. "Don't worry, Andromeda. We'll fix you up."

Daso wandered about the deck, wondering what he could do to help. He was woefully inept at working on really anything.

Whoah I missed a lot hi guys!! Yay @Nessie is baccccc!!! Mor and Lucian are kinda stuck at the market place rn cuz @Opia isn’t back yet, so idk what to do…)

"Want to get up here, Daso? I could use some help." Leah called down, her hair blowing every which way in the sea breeze. She steadied herself on the mast, praying that she wouldn't fall.

Daso grinned up at her. "Anything for you." Glad that he had at least something to do, he began to climb up to the mast. Even though his arms still ached from the siren attack, the height was freeing. The breeze felt amazing and he felt like he was on top of the world.

( Well, idk. You could describe Anjou if you want to write something rn )

"Glad you're liking the heights. . ." Leah muttered, glancing down at the ground and back up at Daso. All she could think about was falling from the mast.

*rubs hands excitedly * time for some Morrigan backstory

He looked at her for a moment before returning his gaze to the world around him. "It's amazing up here," he breathed. "You're not scared of heights, are you?"

( Yey :D. We should go to Trieste soon, so Leah can show Cicada their home )

"Just some bad experience with heights. My brothers and I used to play a game where we would jump from rooftop to rooftop." Leah explained, looking towards Anjou. "I didn't time my jump. . . and it didn't go so well."

Daso gazed back at her, a sympathetic wince on his face. "Hm. Sounds painful." His eyes became pensive. "You hardly talk about your brothers. What were they like?"

Ryan brought Joanna back to the ship. He decided that he would stay on the deck as long as possible before they started sailing. If I'm gonna be here for a while, I should learn to not get seasick….

She sighed and looked towards the water. "Their names were George and Cameron. George was 15 and Cam was 18." Leah faltered when she said her brother's nickname. She turned back towards Daso, fixing her gaze on him. "They looked just like me. They taught me to sail and they could always make me laugh no matter what. I-" She shook her head and looked at him.

"They sound lovely," Daso said gently, his tone compassionate. "And quite brave to be jumping from building to building."

Morrigan checked the time, gripping a shotgun in both hands so tight that her fingernails cut deep gouges in the soft pads of her palms. It was 2:15, and all was silent on The Andromeda but for the muted sound of waves crashing up against the hull so that her strained, shaky breathing seemed louder than the alarms that blared through the sector of Anjou during emergency drills. She listened hard, and after she was sure that everyone was asleep, she lifted the gun and pressed it against her forehead, squeezing her eyes shut. Her wings drooped, spilling over the back of the chair, but her head was held high as she said a final goodbye to her crew mates. I’m sorry, guys. I tried., she thought sadly. Tears formed in the corners of Morrigan’s eyes, slipping out and trickling down her cheeks, bitter, hot, and full of regret. The tiniest of whimpers escaped from her lips and she lay one finger over the trigger.

(Don’t worry this was about a year ago, she stopped herself)

( Aw, Morrigan. I'm so sad now. )

"They were trouble makers and always dragged me along with them." Leah laughed softly, remembering all the trouble they would get into together. "George flirted with every girl he met. Reminds me of someone. . ." Leah said, casting a sideways glance at Daso.
