Welcome to Gaia! ::

Alexandra watches Cosette for her reaction as she bared her soul to another female but she just merely stays quiet because she is not sure what she should do right now. This is one of the awkward moments she don't want to experience but is currently going through one at the moment. Just when Cosette disappeared from her sight, Alexandra let out this breath that she didn't realize that she was holding when she was waiting for Cosette's reaction.

Alexandra just merely smiles faintly as she sees Cosette come back with two glasses and a bottle of rum. She picks up her glass and watches the liquid swishes around before she glances up at Cosette with a shrug. "No. I do not want to bother Jonathan with this trivial matters since he have many things to worry about like running this ship, for one example." She quickly says before she took one swig of the rum and tries not to twitch as the rum burns its way down her throat.

"What about never?" Alexandra thinks to herself before she twirls some rum around inside her mug and stares at the liquid. "I think I hear someone calling for everybody." She glances up at Cosette before she downs the entire mug and places the mug down. "Lets go" She just merely spun around and hightailed it right out of the gallery because it was getting quite uncomfortable for her.

When she is out of the gallery, Alexandra took a deep breath and closes her eyes before she shook her head while walking toward the main deck.

Alexandra shifts through the crowd before she squints at the sudden brightness of the outside world then she knows that she is not needed because she usually don't do the ship work except fighting in the battles or helping out with things that are not ship-related. But she knows that she can't keep hiding forever so she forced herself to lean against the edge of the ship and watches everybody working on setting the ship up for sail.

"Meh.." She sighs as she did a sweep of the deck and her eyes lands on Cosette thoughtfully.

Fingers moving over her half unwrapped gift, Wren snuggled her cheek againist Gabriel's shoulder as she started to finish the task of unwrapping the present. Glancing up at Gabriel's face then back down at the gift, Wren smiled softly starting rip away the wrapping. " What is this Gabriel?" Pulling away the wrapping, Wren reached up brushing her deep red hair back from her face as she lowered her finger back to the gift in her lap looking it over.

Shivering lightly Wren smiled gently pushing open the lid of the box to peer inside. " Oh Gabriel" Lifting the bracelet gently, she let it gently rest in one palm as she looked over it. " Its so pretty" Moving her hand closer to her face, Wren looked over every tiny detail of the metal and the engraving. Wonder shining in her eyes, Wren set the bracelet down into its box gently she closed the box setting it beside her.

Turning to Gabriel Wren brushed a kiss to her lover's lips. "Thank you Gabriel its wonderful" Resting her head againist Gabriel's shoulder again, Wren closed her eyes. " This is nice...just sitting here together"

Staring out over the waves again, Shun just let out a disgruntled and bored sigh as he felt as if they hadn't moved much at all lately. It seemed that for now, everyone was somewhere below deck doing their own thing, making the area where he was quite deserted. After some time, he tore his gaze away from the seas and glanced down at his wounds from the battled with the freakish pirates. Though they itched slightly through their bandages, he refrained from scratching at them since he didn't want to make them worse.

He looked about once more before sitting down on a crate. Solitude was something he enjoyed most of the time, but this was just too quiet and monotonous for his liking.

It was either this or stay on that crappy little island... What wonderful choices life had set out for me.

Gabriel smiled widely once more, "I hope it stays as perfect as this moment too," he paused for a moment, as he clenched his left hand into a fist, "you will never be used again," he said somewhat loudly, and angrily, "I will never allow that to happen again!"

He stood up, and walked to the door of the cabin, "We should probably go back up to the deck, there's likely work that we should be doing," he paused once more, "I don't think we need Rachel or anyone else screaming at us for hours on end," he said with a cheeky smile.

Jonathan peeked his head out the window of his cabin upon hearing the lookout's cry of land. His hand came up to the bridge of his nose in annoyance as he noticed a storm raging on the island. Even though he have never been to a desert before, he knew enough that sandstorms wreak havoc upon men and supplies alike.

"Drop anchor!" the Englishman shouted as he exited the cabin onto the main deck. "We will wait here until the storm subsides." Graves was silently praying that it was not a mistake to hesitate.
