Cadivier's Scourge

[Rogue of Night]

Merrina shook her head at Alerick's retort before glancing over at Soren. "Aye!" She glanced at her companions thoughtfully. "Mathieu, will you manage with your brother?"

[C H E Y E N N E]

ooc;; Augh! Sorry! I ended up helping my sister, like, take down boxes and unpack her old treasures.

[Rogue of Night]

ooc: I was about to give up and go to bed, so be thankful I didn't

[C H E Y E N N E]

Mathieu nodded. "No problem," he said.

[Rogue of Night]

Merrina nodded, and started down herself. Seemed all the women on this ship were agile and could manage a swift flight to the main deck. Merrina was no exception.
She landed gracefully on the planked wood, starting for the crew's quarters without delay.

Fylis wiped her hands on her apron, panting. "We did it."
"We saved the rum!" Aerin cheered. Ashley looked like he was about to add in something else, but apparently decided against it.

[Rogue of Night]

"Come on then," Tenaiya called from the stairs. "There's hot drinks and food waiting in the galley." She then vanished to the crew's quarters.

The galley was already full of the crew, and for once in a long time, Blake had made an appearance. Of course, it was only because she was terrified of the storm and didn't want to be left alone.
On her left was Foriden, keeping close to her, their bodies pressing at any given time, while a very unimpressed Charlie sat on her other side. He shot Foriden homicidal looks but somehow, the Captain remained unaffected.

[C H E Y E N N E]

ooc;; I love Charlie.
Homicidal looks indeed

bic;; Aerin bounced into the room happily. "WE SAVED THE RUM!" She yelled in caps, Fylis scowling as she poked her head out of the actual cooking area.

[Rogue of Night]

ooc: Charlie's one of my favourites. He's so...overprotective. It's awesome.

bic: "Bring it over then, already," called Nuri with a wide grin. "Ashton's starting to look a little too sober!"
Ashton nodded with agreement.
Amelia could smack herself. "Honestly, you two are ridiculous."
"Let them be, Meli," Selviana insisted with a chuckle. "They're boys; just let them act that way."
"Well I don't take boys to bed."
Selviana shook her head. "Then who do you take to bed? Rats?"
Amelia glared. "Har, har, very humerous."

[C H E Y E N N E]

ooc;; *is giggling madly at a fanfic* Dr McCoy/Bones, I love you so much sometimes xDD

bic;; Aerin grinned. She already had a tray. "Feels like old times!" She whistled as Fylis huffed and vanished again.

[Rogue of Night]

ooc: I might go to bed soon....

bic: Ashton snatched some rum from the tray, gulping it down hastily before going for another. Nuri mimicked the actions.
Merrina wrung out her hair as she sat on the edge of a table. "Well, it could've been worse."
"We were lucky," Tenaiya agreed, seemingly not happy with the placement of Blake by Foriden.
"You, Tenai! What's going on with the Cap'ain and Charlie's sister?" came Caviesse's inquiry.
Tenaiya glared at her. "You are asking me to disclose personal information about our Captain."
"You're his woman," Konar put in then. "Why is he so fond of Blake, then?"
Tenaiya's eyes narrowed as she glanced back at Foriden. "It's an...agreement...of sorts."

[C H E Y E N N E]

"An agreement, aye? Like what?" Aerin asked, raising an eyebrow. "We are all contained on this one ship, Tenai. Might as well tell us, no? Who the hell are we going to rat it out to?"

Fylis sighed as she sat on the edge of a barrel, watching Ashley as he put stuff away as silently as he could.
"Siblings."
"Pardon me?"
"I said siblings!"
"... I see."

[Rogue of Night]

ooc: I'm so confused about that bit with Fylis and Ashley D:
After this, I'm out. Night!

bic: "When we stumbled across them, those two years ago, Blake was far beyond repair. She was a mess; I was surprised that he even wanted her aboard our ship.
"I believe he always tells it as, Blake was desperate and had a very hard coming to realization one day, and so when she came to him to speak, she asked if he would make love to her so she could try and forget. Being a Captain, and a free man, he agreed. It mended her spirit, just a little, but apart from that, did nothing. Except pull them both in deep."
Konar blinked with surprise. Caviesse just stared.
"So she's...." Caviesse murmured as she came to the realization.
"His whore, yes," Tenaiya replied.
"Then what does that make you?"
Tenaiya held up a hand, displaying a vibrant ring. "His Intended."
"Pirates don't normally get engaged," Konar muttered. "That's for the city folk."
"It's not an engagement, just a treaty. I belong to him, and he belongs to me. I believe he has yet to tell Charlie's sister." A smug smile formed on the brunette's face.
Konar furrowed his brow. "So he's just going to sever their agreement then...?"
Tenaiya nodded.
"Bastard," Konar bit out before drinking a large gulp of rum.

[C H E Y E N N E]

ooc;; Fylis is just being Fylis, and Ashley is basically doing the polite version of 'wtfh is wrong with you.'

bic;; "But wouldn't that just..." Mathieu shook his head as he walked in.
"It'd kill her, is what," Alerick said, shaking his head.

[Rogue of Night]

ooc: Ah x3
I was wondering P:

bic: "It was her own fault for getting involved with a man already promised off," Tenaiya stated, folding her arms. "The Captain and I agreed this is what is best."

Across the room, Charlie was glaring in Tenaiya's direction. He had somehow managed to hear all of what she had just said, and it gave him reason to feel great anger. His glance turned to Blake, and his eyes narrowed further at the sight of the Captain drawing her closer to him with an arm about her shoulders. He couldn't just stand by idly and let it be.
"Blake, can I talk to you a moment?"
The young twenty-year-old looked up at her blood brother, nodded, and slipped out of Foriden's grasp.
Charlie could've sworn the man looked furious with the interruption, but said nothing as he was a calm and collected man. The blonde then took hold of his sister, and led her up and onto the main deck.
"What is it, Charlie?" Blake's voice was heavy, obviously with the bit of alcohol she had consumed.
"You're getting in to deep with this one," Charlie warned.
Blake just stared at him for a moment, blinking with confusion. "With what...?"
"With the Captain! I overheard - and saw her - mentioning that she has now become his Intended, Blake."
Blake's eyes widened a little. "She...what...?"
"I saw that little trinket on her finger as well. She was practically announcing it to the world."
Blake didn't know what to say.
"I think we should make leave when we get to the next town, Blake. Find a new ship, a new Captain who's accepting of a crew."
"But--"
"And this time, I'm going to make sure you stay away from him, do you understand? It's difficult enough dealing with you when you can't stop thinking of Jack," the mere mention of the name was already bringing tears to Blake's eyes as Charlie continued, "but now with this intricate web you've woven between yourself and the Captain is not going to be agreeable with anyone."
Blake clenched her teeth. "So...he was just...playing me."
Charlie nodded. "Seems that way."
For the first time in a long time - and he blamed the near inebriation for it - Charlie saw tears pour from his sister's eyes. She hadn't broken down like this since that first meeting with the Captain, and he felt a little guilty that she had to find out this way. So, he did all he could do. He bundled her into his arms, lifted her off her feet, and carried her down to the crew's quarters.

"Where'd Blake and Charlie go off to?" LaBeau asked as he peered around. "Weren't they just here?"
Foriden nodded. "They needed to talk."
LaBeau studied him a moment before looking away.
"I see you've finally gotten rid of her," Tenaiya said as she arrived at the table. She took her spot beside Foriden, and he pulled her up against his side as he had just been doing to Blake.
LaBeau raised an eyebrow, but said nothing.
"Does she know, then?" asked the brunette woman.
Foriden nodded.
"Good."
