Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 19, 2011 11:58:00 PM)
..XO, what are you doing? Stop that.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 19, 2011 11:58:33 PM)
*Once it was full she put the hose away and came running back with big fluffy towels she set aside and pointed to the tub* You, tub, soaking Capt'n.

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 12:01:19 AM)
...How are you gonna empty that? For fuck's sake XO. *Oddly, perhaps, there's no anger there. Still too tired for that*

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 12:01:37 AM)
With buckets! I got it.. now get in it

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 12:02:32 AM)
*He sighs, strips down to boxers, and drags himself into the tub, melting into it.*

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 12:03:48 AM)
*She got the shampoo and got his hair wet before she started lathering it up to clean him off, using a nice scrubby loofah to clean him off*

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 12:04:36 AM)
*No reaction at all. God, what a miserable lump. *

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 12:06:08 AM)
I'm going to do horrible things to you if you don't crack a smile.. *She cleaned off his hair with the water and then moved around to the other side of the tub, taking his feet and crouching down as she cleaned them off, peering at him over his toes and wiggling her ears, trying to cheer him up*

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 12:06:59 AM)
*he grunts softly, mutters* Nothing new there.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 12:07:20 AM)
*She sighed* Why're you upset Capt'n?

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 12:08:40 AM)
*a moment of quiet before he speaks* Between your irresponsiblity, Azu's stubborn ignorance and my own anger, I managed to undo everything I managed to accomplish since we got here.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 12:11:39 AM)
I don't think it's as bad as that, Capt'n.. *Her voice softer* Sabine still adores you.. Bastian still seems rather interested, Scott's an idiot anyway, Azu brings the wrong kind of attention to us anyway. I was at Sabine's and Tara came in and she didn't seem troubled by it at all. And that troll was an idiot too..

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 12:12:31 AM)
..Azu's a gossip. The sluagh is too, likely. I'm sure tales of my brutality to crew and towering anger will spread.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 12:14:05 AM)
Capt'n.. you're a great Capt'n.. and you'll do well. You do great.. And people gossip about everything, doesn't mean they never come around to find out the truth. And if you were really like that I'd not be so damn happy now would I?

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 12:14:27 AM)
If you keep being so sad Capt'n I'm gonna have to climb in there and hug you too and then you'll have wet mouse smell in your cabin.

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 12:15:08 AM)
Stockholm syndrome *he mutters.* To make it all fucking worse, Melvin has the nerve to come in and try to recruit people out from under my nose. After shutting me out after all the help we gave.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 12:16:54 AM)
Fuck 'em then Oct.. honestly.. We'll make due, we always have 'n always will. I'm a sailor 'n you're my Capt'n and fuck 'em all. They'll figure it out or they won't. I'll be better I promise..

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 12:18:51 AM)
*He splashes water on his face* I swear to god, Serendipity, if you eat peanuts knowingly one more time, I'm gonna take you over my knee. You won't be able to sit for a month, so help me.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 12:19:28 AM)
Deal.. and I know, I know, it's not the good kind of not being able to sit down.

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 12:21:25 AM)
I'm seriously tempted to pull Everbright out, let them smash their faces against the Tower on their own. No fucking respect for my efforts. Hardly any respect at all.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 12:22:12 AM)
*She sighed a bit and leaned over to hug him* I'm sorry..

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 12:23:48 AM)
What're -you- sorry for? *he asks, climbing out of the tub, padding towards his storage space...leaving his boxers behind. Emo elf or no, his backside is fine. Even with the extensive scarring that covers his entire right side, from knee to face*

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 12:34:14 AM)
*She bit her lower lip as she watched him, face turning a nice shade of red that might make one wonder if she was starting to have another reaction... yep.. staring.. completely sidetracked* .. uh..

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 12:36:55 AM)
*He takes his sweet time getting dressed...maybe showing off a bit, maybe not....in simple slacks and a tight black wife-beater. He gathers up his uniform, setting it aside to go into the washer*

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 12:37:26 AM)
*She cleared her throat and tried to think straight again* .. um.. c..cause I caused trouble. And I'm sorry.

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 12:38:12 AM)
Don't apologise, XO. I'm tired of hearing apologies, from fucking everyone. Just -don't do it- anymore.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 12:38:32 AM)
*She nodded a little bit* Okay.

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 12:39:00 AM)
Good. *he shakes out his arm, trying to get the last bits of water out of it*

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 12:40:16 AM)
... can I have a hug?

C'mere.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 12:46:48 AM)
*She got up and went trudging over to him, sighing as she leaned against him and curled her arms around him*

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 12:49:17 AM)
*She gets a crushing robo-hug from his right arm mostly*

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 12:49:41 AM)
*She squeaked softly but burrowed into the hug, sighing softly*

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 12:50:21 AM)
What were you up to, anyway? You've been out all day. *he nudges her towards the door, and follows...his tummy grumbles hungrily*

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 12:52:30 AM)
*She stopped and pointed towards the food* I brought din din, you should eat. And I've been practicing at Sabine's.. I'm making my sword.

((brb))

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 12:57:41 AM)
Practicing at Sabine's huh? *he snags the food she's brought, heading towards the deck with it and the candles*

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 1:00:03 AM)
*She padded along with her container of food, nodding some as she trudge behind*

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:03:32 AM)
*He Flops to the deck near the outside rail, settling the food down a moment later.* What did you do?

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 1:05:15 AM)
She heated up the metal and I started hitting it and then she folded and I hit it more and she folded and I hit it more and then my arm hurt and we stopped

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:09:08 AM)
((looks like Emma wants me to meet up afterall. Sorry!)))

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:09:37 AM)
*he starts peering into food containers to see what she brought* I see. Did you have fun?

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 1:10:42 AM)
I think so.. my arm hurts.. but I'm enjoying learning

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:13:38 AM)
...Why didn't you ask me?

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 1:13:55 AM)
Because I wanna learn how to smith with the forge so I can make something and surprise you

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 1:14:02 AM)
Besides.. there's.. other reasons..

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:18:05 AM)
Other reasons?

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 1:20:06 AM)
*She blushed fruiously* Um.. Capt'n.. you.. sweaty.. and um.. all.. shirtless and .. muscly.. and.. it's.. not good for my health..

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:21:31 AM)
What? Why? *he asks, distracted probably as he offers her a bit of food from his metal fingers*

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 1:21:54 AM)
*She promptly nibbled the food happily, eyeing him a bit* ... think about it

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:23:28 AM)
*He blinks at her*

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:28:43 AM)
(This user has entered The Everbright) (IP = 69.123.179.73)

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:29:27 AM)
(hey yo)

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:29:37 AM)
*Sabine came up on deck, looking around.* ((hey))

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:30:38 AM)
*Octavian and Serendipity are chilling on deck, eating from takeout containers. There's a kind of tangible aura of meloncholy stil lingering to Oct*

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 1:31:21 AM)
*She sighed a bit and rubbed at her ear* Um.. You're.. really.. I mean.. I.. um.. really.. you're.. *She took a deep breath and sighed*

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:31:53 AM)
Uh. shit. Am I interrupting, I can leave?

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:32:45 AM)
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:32:51 AM)
((ack))

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 1:32:58 AM)
*She looked over at Sabine and shook her head* Nope! I was er.. failing horribly at trying to explain something to Oct.

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:32:59 AM)
(hehe)

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:33:18 AM)
*Octavian nods a bit, agreeing with Seren*

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:35:04 AM)
Um...ok. I didn't want to be a third wheel or nothin'

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:35:30 AM)
She got enough food for six. Come sit. *said as he motions with a hand*

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 1:38:55 AM)
*She offered some food out to Sabine with a smile*

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:38:57 AM)
*She came over to sit with them, leather outfit creaking a bit.* THanks

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:39:25 AM)
Sure. I hear you're teaching my XO how to hammer metal things.

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:41:10 AM)
Thanks Dippy.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 1:42:19 AM)
Welcome. *Her ears flicked a little bit before drooping down against her head*

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:42:47 AM)
Yea, I'm teaching Dippy blacksmithing. She's a good apprentice so far.

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:43:09 AM)
You ok Miss Mouser?

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:43:23 AM)
You let me know if she misbehaves. I'll make sure she straightens up.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 1:44:05 AM)
*She looked pointedly bashful and fidgeted* I'll be good..

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:45:13 AM)
She doesn't ever misbehave Octavian.

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:45:49 AM)
Never? *asked with a surprising little smirk*

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:46:13 AM)
Not at my workshop, not around me at all

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:48:29 AM)
You'll have to teach me your secret to keeping her in line. *tone soft, teasing, as he reaches over to tickle Seren's side*

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:49:04 AM)
She's a good girl Captain.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 1:50:55 AM)
*She blushed furiously, squeaking and squrming around as she giggled* ACK! Not the tickling! Nuu!

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:52:41 AM)
She's a cuddlemouse too.

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:53:04 AM)
Yeah? She seems to enjoy cuddling you at least.

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:53:29 AM)
I'm sure she enjoys cuddling you too.

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:53:38 AM)
I'm just warm like a coal.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 1:53:40 AM)
*HUGE BLUSH*

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:54:14 AM)
Whatcha blushing about Miss Dippymouse?

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 1:54:34 AM)
Nuffin..

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:54:42 AM)
Suuuuuuuure

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:55:02 AM)
I don't get cuddles. I'm too captainy. And the arm means I'm not comfy enough for mouse ears.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 1:55:57 AM)
Sometimes I get hugs if I pout really hard.

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 1:56:18 AM)
I give you hugs Dippy!

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 1:56:27 AM)
I mean from the Capt'n.

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 1:59:54 AM)
*He just nods* Gotta maintain officer distance *muttered*

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:02:20 AM)
*she clucked her tongue as she often did when she had no words, but didn't wish to sit silently, being awkward. Despite her tough and carefree attitude, she deep down wanted to fit in with other fae and not be seen as a Nocker weirdo that had an easier time with machines than people.*

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 2:03:05 AM)
*She grumbled a little bit, muttering something really softly and just staring at the deck*

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:03:18 AM)
*he narrows his eyes at Sabine for a moment, then reaches over and tickles her, too. *

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:03:47 AM)
What was that Dippydippydoo? *she smirked, but didn't seem ticklish.*

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:04:37 AM)
I think she was bitching about officer distance. *he switches arms, trying the metal one on the Nocker*

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 2:04:53 AM)
*Her ears flicked and she blushed furiously*

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:05:14 AM)
Be glad I'm not carrying my hammer.*She joked.*

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:05:58 AM)
I could use a smack to the head. Well, I bet the mouse thinks so sometimes.

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:07:17 AM)
Everything alright you two?

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 2:07:25 AM)
You are so frustrating sometimes.. *She sighed and fidgeted*

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:08:04 AM)
I know, mouse, I know.

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:08:39 AM)
*she patted Dips on the shoulder.*

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 2:08:42 AM)
*She groaned and thumped her head on the table, sighing*

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:09:08 AM)
Would you still want me if I was easy?

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 2:09:18 AM)
Easy is not the same as impossible

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 2:09:46 AM)
(brb one sec)

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:16:17 AM)
*Octavian leans back, quietly lighting a cigar and poking his legs straight out to get comfy, his back against the railing of the deck*

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:18:35 AM)
*It should be noted he's wearing civvies currently, slacks and a black wife-beater that again puts his scars and arm and tattoos on display*

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 2:19:47 AM)
*She sighed a bit and lifted her head up* It's just not fair when you look that good..

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:21:07 AM)
*she looked out over the water feeling like an interloper being present for a conversation like this.*

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:22:12 AM)
*Sabine gets nudge with a bare toe* Quit that. You're prolly the only person in the city who isn't a mouse who's seen me this dressed down.

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:22:42 AM)
Really?

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 2:22:52 AM)
*She giggled sofftly* You're the only one I would feel comfortable being with.

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:22:54 AM)
Why's that, 'cause I'm a Nocker?

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:23:16 AM)
*She looked to Oct*

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:24:06 AM)
Cause the mouse trusts you. The ship trusts you. *he half drags Seren over to his side so she can snuggle*

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 2:24:45 AM)
Cause you're the only one that seems like you're not an asshole.. or a two-faced jerk.. *She squeaked and snuggled in against Octavian happily*

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:25:17 AM)
Thankyou. *She spoke softly.*

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:26:33 AM)
*She gets another toe-poke* Of course. It's not like you didn't earn it.

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:28:30 AM)
How did I earn it?

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:28:58 AM)
By being cool. Obviously.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 2:29:28 AM)
Not abandoning us just cause we're human and moody?

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:30:42 AM)
Nockers aren't easily botherd by shit like that. We're good at grumpy and moody ourselves.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 2:31:07 AM)
See, you fit right in

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:31:40 AM)
I need more Nockers I can trust. Not ones that take my help then shut me out.

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:31:59 AM)
Who did that? Melvin?

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 2:32:08 AM)
*She sighed a bit and nodded*

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:32:24 AM)
*HE says nothing, not wanting to come off as whining*

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:32:31 AM)
That;s no shock. he;s keeping that fucking place all for himself

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 2:33:00 AM)
Guess who came around last night asking people who were -here- if they'd help him

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:33:20 AM)
*His jaw twitches at mention of that*

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:34:33 AM)
He told me he'd charge me to use the balefire forge when that should be open to everyone. He sees it as a fucking dross making scheme. If you work for him you still have to give a percentage of what you make to be pooled in for the old, so essentially you're still paying him and working there, technically just so your personal projects there are free.

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:34:49 AM)
He's got quite a racket going on if you ask me.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 2:35:19 AM)
Yeah.. jerk...

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:37:03 AM)
There are two holds in the city now. Guess which one maintains the Right of Safe Haven?

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:37:20 AM)
Not Cold Water.

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:37:35 AM)
Neither. -We- do. Everbright.

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:37:42 AM)
I refuse to call it Arkham

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:39:24 AM)
I don't think he realizes he's going to be sitting in their alone with his dick in his hand, or I should say in-- Wait, I better not say it. Some things are even probably best left unsaid even by me.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 2:39:36 AM)
*She fidgeted some and just sighed*

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:40:03 AM)
We don't even have a fire, but we've made it known that any fae who shows up will be given a bed and food. *He sighs, softly* I'm working on that, though.

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:40:43 AM)
Yea I'd never turn away anyone from the Steamworks. Even someone I don't care for.

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:41:36 AM)
Everbright was a freehold, once. *he says, softly*

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:42:08 AM)
I see...What happened?

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 2:42:17 AM)
Evil dragons.

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:42:33 AM)
Oh yea you mentioned them.

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:42:42 AM)
Unbelief. Then dragons. Her crew took what was left in her fire, and reforged her as she is now.

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:44:12 AM)
That's a shame.

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:45:35 AM)
If it's at all possible, I want to return her to that state. I don't want anyone to know that, by the way. We'd have an even greater struggle if others knew and resisted.

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:46:07 AM)
You're secret's safe with me.

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:51:02 AM)
I hope so. The last thing I need is stormtroopers trying to board.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 2:51:19 AM)
*SHe grumbled a little bit and shook her head a bit, nuzzling against Oct*

Sabine Lefevre (Mar 20, 2011 2:51:24 AM)
I don't even know any stormstroopers!

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 2:52:42 AM)
It's more likely nobles would do that. To better 'protect' the fire if we find one.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 3:01:29 AM)
*She squeaked, grumped, crawled into Oct's lap and flattened her ears against her head as they folded back* I don't want my home taken away.

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 3:08:44 AM)
Not if I can help it, XO. Which is why it's secret until I set things in motion.

Serendipity Jones (Mar 20, 2011 3:16:39 AM)
*She nodded a little and cuddled against him*

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 3:17:10 AM)
(i'm falling asleep at the wheel...I think it's bedtimes for this elf

Octavian Vanderaa (Mar 20, 2011 3:18:12 AM)
