SEPTEMBER EVENT: SKULLY'S ANGELS

[sailmods]

[around 10:30PM, after Friday has returned from bringing all the other guests back to the ship, she parks the tender just off the shore, idling. she sticks her head out of the door.]

Good luck! Just come get me if you need anything! [beat] But, only if it’s something I can do without stepping outside! [beat] Have fun!

[she then pops back inside. they’re on their own, for now.

the salamander villagers have returned to their homes for the night, it seems… all but one, a smaller one, bedecked in leather armor and carrying a spear. they watch the group as they leave the beach, eyes fixed… and then, slowly but distinctly, they toss their head in the direction of inland, and turn away from them to begin a sort of watch.

perhaps that was salamander for good luck. you’ll need it.]

Comments

[light_mischief]

[It was inevitable that he'd notice. She's his construct after all. It would be impossible for him not to see that she's been... growing. That's never seen as a good thing, and there's no telling how it'll be taken here and now.

Skulduggery steps to the side in order to cut the Captain's view. They have actual, important things to deal with; the issue of constructs and free will can be dealt with later. For now, he gestures towards the bag.]

There are a few things in there. I don't know what, given that we were all being afflicted with an array of curses at the time. Are any of those what you're looking for?

[saltwaterlungs]

[ Relieved to no longer be dealing with him, Darcy retrieves the red gem and the ape paw from her pockets and hands them off to Skulduggery, to slink back with the rest of the b-roll crew. ]

[sictransitgloriamundi]

[a pause. shakes head.] No, but... You do have it. You have it.

[he glances around the tender with visible disdain.]

I realize you trust these people, but the feeling is not mutual. For either side of the party.

[beat]

You know where I live.

[and, with that, he's gone.]

[makesomedeals]

[His sigh of disdain is probably audible all the way to the Captain's room. ]

[saltwaterlungs]

Dibs not dealing with Jenny when she wakes up.

[ If the Captain's gone and everything else is resolved... there's nothing else for her to do. Other than go back to her cabin and immediately fucking collapse. Maybe kiss Undine a bit. The rest of her night is pretty free now.

Izzy gets a gentle slap on the shoulder, and Skulduggery gets... not an outright hug, but leans her shoulder and head into his arm for a moment as she's going past. Like a cat. ]

I'm gonna go sleep for a year. Let us know how the talk with the Captain goes, ehn?

[ And then she slips away back onto the ship proper. ]

[light_mischief]

[He stuffs the items in his pockets and gives her disappearing back a thumbs up.]
