Smiling at the Captains invitation, it was all she could do to contain her excitement about boarding the Lady again. Following behind the Captain like a lost pup looking for it's mum, she locked her eyes on his waist coat as he dissapeared into the mob of the crew.

::Artemis follows her new crewmates to the ship.::
"Now I finally get to see my new HOME!" she muses to herself.

Standing from the table, Baxter addressed the Lady of the manor; "Thank you for a wonderful meal, M'lady."
He then turned to depart, and noticed the new girl, Jaden looking at him. He smiled and nodded at her and then proceeded out of the house and back towards the docks to return to the ship. He could not wait to rid himself of these clothes.

Aki-Sha Rillian smile broadened as she watched the woman 'dance'. She looked up to her face and laughed softly. "I don't know what a shillellagh is, but I know how to do that!" She laughed and tossed the now closed bottle of rum to one of the men. She turned back the the woman and smiled, she sudenlly tapped her boots a couple of times as if to tease. Then with a sudden laugh she copied exactly what the woman had just did, the sly smile plastered once more onto her face. "I wonder....who would give out first. You or me?" She looked around to the men as they all suddenly began betting on who would win. Rillian laughed and bowed slowly. "After you...mister. I mean madam." She laughed softly, just plain joking with the woman. Oh, now, I think I'm a trite too drunk to dance the night away with you, but perhaps we could both enjoy the music on this fine table here? *as the flute and drum start up again, she takes out her sword* Alright, the shillellagh...just follow me! *she starts tapping the jig on the table, and stepping towards her* Now, we click swords in the middle, and go back

*Stepping out the front door, he ran headlong into his First Mate, Mr. Ilor.*
"Better late than never, I suppose. Care to join us for our walk back to the ship?
We are going to continue festivities there, if weather permits...
Once we are all sober as priests and twice the merry, we'll stock up our stores, resupply our fruits, vegetables, water & medicinals and be on our way.
We're bound away from this wretched place. About time too.
How's Madagascar sound? Does it quite suite your fancy?
I'm open to suggestions."
*Patting Mr. Ilor on the shoulder, he put on a wide smile and continued on his way.
Soon finding themselves back along the Naval Docks, the small group returned to the wharf where the 'Lady Washington' rode high and proudly at her mooring lines. Bouncing to and fro, she pressed up against her rope fenders; the small waves that traveled throughout the inner harbour played at her waterline, caressing and teasing her copper bottom.
Escorting the sirens that hung on his arm to the gangway, he stopped at the small swinging gate and slid his arms from theirs. Taking Miss Melaria's hand in his, he took her aside. Watching as the Crew made their way back upon the decks that they called 'Home' he turned back to his long lost friend. He chuckled at how this thought had probably not crossed a single one of their minds, nor his until this very moment.
This was going to be the first time in over three years that Melaria, or rather at that period of time Miss 'Midnight Oasis', had stepped one foot aboard the ship that she had once called home. This was a big moment for her, and he wanted to make sure she realized that he knew this.
Opening his closed eyes to her, he leaned in and talked quietly to her. It was almost as though he were whispering in her ear. His words flowed off his tounge smoothly and with almost no sound.*
"One big breath, and a small step is all it takes.
With the winds at your back, and a star to sail by...
Life couldn't be more simple.
Come on. Re-live the adventure, love.
The Lady, she misses you..."
*He wanted to say more, but he wouldn't let himself. Smiling at her, his eyes, or at least the one he had left, seemed to gleam at the thought of having his original partner in crime back again.*
"Come... live a little. Give in to temptation.
Or don't you remember how?"

Bounding up the gangplank, Syn tilted her head when she heard the sound of music coming from below decks. With a crow of merriment, she waved her arm, Tuslo coming free from her arm and flying behind her as she leapt down to join the jostling party. Seeing Miss Ares and another woman she didn't recognize dancing some sort of jig (Irish, from the looks of it), she spread her arms wide and calling, "Hoi, does anyone have a fiddle for this bonny lass?" Affecting an Irish accent for a moment, she smiled broadly when one in the back handed her a fiddle and bow.
Leaping onto a table, she called to the two dancing, "Ye two can dance all ye like so long as I get to be the one accompanying it!" With that, she paused to listen to the tune, then catching on with the air of someone with long practice, she started to play a wild rigmarole of a tune that wound around the original one with an exotic spice. Her one eye glittered, the woman not so much dancing as shuffling on the table, being careful not to upset it in the chaos. Tuslo himself was perched on a high shelf, watching the festivities.
Now this was a party Syn could enjoy.

*After hearing that he had to walk all that way just to head back to the ship he slumped over and let out a sigh. He stood up straight again and ran up beside the captain*
"What ever you say sir, I hear Madagascar is nice this time a year."

((ok, I don't know if this is a good time to come in, but smile )
'You see!' Tayen shouted, as the bearded man emptied her bag out on the floor. 'I didn't steal your stupid jewellery, ok? Now, sir, let me go?' She picked up her belongings and stormed out the door into the street. She could hear music coming from somewhere. The door slammed behind her.

*Aeoess learned that the shots were from some of the crew testing some of the guns... After feeling silly for that (She should've remembered that..)She grew tired; as the captain continued the festivities she only grabbed a few bottles of rum (while the captain was unaware) and grabbed whatever food she thought would sufface..
She climbed to the Crow's Nest, and was welcomed by Eittik (My black cat (A little info is in the Crow's nest post)). She changed from her dress into something more comfortible, and then put some food on the floor for Eittik and refilled its water dish. Afterwords she layed down in the bunk she made for herself up there, drinking the rum she stole she couldn't help but think about this "Madagascar" place the captain spoke of..She secretly began to hope that that place would provide either answers, or her demise.
She drank more, and she allowed the noise coming from the happy/excited crew to help her rest a little bit..Eittik began to attempt to cheer her up, as though it knew that she would find something worth while..*
(OOC: I thought I should introduce the cat (Who has no gender) for once, I would have added it earlier but I felt that it has little relevence at the time. Also I am still getting used to RPing in a forum, please be patient I'll figure it out..And my post will one day be more welcome. (I'll update the crow's nest as the captain tells me of interesting things to spot, and I'll try to add to it as well..Again, still figuring it out..)) sweatdrop

The Captain stood so close she could feel his breath brush against her cheek when he talked. His voice was meant for her ears alone and as he held her hands she hoped he could not feel how her pulse raced. She knew once she stepped aboard the Lady it would not let her out of her grasp again. Was this what she truley wanted?
Smiling as she looked into the Captains eye, she knew this was where she was ment to be. This was the right time as well, the Lady had sailed into port two weeks after her late husband had died and allowed her to momentarily forget her grief and lonelyness.
"This is my home, if you will still have me. I miss the open waters and the adventure."
She felt immensly better for saying something she had bottled up for so many years. A sigh of releif flowed through her and she let herself have exactly what she wanted, well, almost.
"As to temptation, you might have to remind me how it feels."
Closing her eyes she leaned into him, feeling her weight supported by his hands as she laid a gentle kiss upon his lips. Smiling, she placed a slippered foot upon the plank leading to a familiar home.

*with the new accompanist, the music began to pick up speed. She hesitated once and put her sword away. She smiles at the girl across from her, and nods to her*
Let us acquire partners and make the ship herself dance!
*she pulls up one of the men from her gun crew and they begin to dance faster than before*

*Dreams. That's the scent that overtook him. She smelt of all the wonderful things that a person could ever fathom within a magnificent dreamworld. She was so warm too... her touch was what he'd always imagined it to be. Oh, and her lips...
Leaning agianst her, he wrapped his arms around her in a tight hug.*
"Of course I shall take you back, my dear.
I wouldn't have it any other way..."
*Clearing his throat, he looked about and chuckled secretly to her and himself.*
"Ahem...
W-Welcome Aboard, Miss Melaria. Welcome Home."
*Releasing her from his embrace, he guided her along the gangplank, until her hand was gentley taken from his. He longed for this moment to have never ended, but it had and now he had a celebration to host.
The night was young and lots was yet to be done.
But first, the announcement... Their true course.
The 'Lady's destination.*
[(Continued in Captain's Quarters)]
