Welcome to Gaia! ::

Vykin looked over to Tsuki, seeing her standing there looking slightly depressed in a way. Vykin wasn't typically one to care about these kinds of things or if she did, it was only to help the mission continue going smoothly. But there was something different about Tsuki that tugged at her heart in a way it didn't normally tug. It reminded her of a kid, when she was helpless and relied on her parents for everything. But when her dad died off in the ocean...

Vykin looked back towards Tsuki and said, "Hey Tsuki are you alright? This mission will be very annoying to us because we are dealing with not only sailors, but pirates. Just because the sea god Iana respects us, and that means we won't die, that doesn't mean that the pirates themselves will respect us. We're going to endure a helluva lot of butt slaps and gropes before this mission is over... so it's going to take a lot of will power not to injure any of the people hard like we did just today. Otherwise our plan will be in jeopardy. Do you think you can handle this?"

Vykin wondered if there was something deeper in Tsuki's life that had happened to her... who was she kidding. Of course there was something in her life. Everyone had their own story, including herself. How they dealt with it was what made them all individuals.

Tsukiyamoru was getting completely lost in her own thoughts, snapping out of them immediately at the sound of Vykin's voice and her name. Her eyes rose and she blinked a little, she hadn't realized she had been looking that down. Dammit. She still needed to work on that. She managed a half-smile, she wouldn't lie, she knew that she would have some trouble. "Sorry, I'm fine. Just thinking is all." She sighed heavily, she was right to have banished such thoughts. "..." She was silent, getting flashes of a past she wanted buried, a frown burning it's way onto her face. ".... I know. I'll figure something out. Don't worry, I'll make sure I won't blow our cover." She said quietly, knowing that would put her on shaky ground in everyones eyes. Her own lowered to the floor again, trying to think of a way so if any of them did more than just slap her a** or grope, she wouldn't lose it. Because she knew she would. She remembered what happened last time someone did, and it was the reason she fled from Mist amidst smoke, tears, and blood. It was the reason she held a darker side of her personality that she hated showing. That she wanted to go and leave her be. She managed a smile to reassure them, her hands hanging in the air at her sides.

Tsukiyamoru grimaced a little, she wouldn't be able to control any water while on the ship. DEAD giveaway at where she was from. Or at least what village it would seem like she was from. She sighed lightly, blinking a little at the mention of costumes. She doubted anything in her closet would count as a pirates outfit. Oh well, she was sure they would figure that out. Turning her gaze to him when he looked at her, she had banished any hint of her conflicting thoughts about her need for control of herself, an eyebrow raising at his proposition. She knew there was a blush in her cheeks, cursing it, subduing it quickly so it was as if it had never been there. "We should probably just stick to pairs, I would think it would draw more attention than necessary if we did that. We could probably still stick to the married couple scenario, but they might view us as weaker. Still worth considering." She pointed out, wondering if it was just her mind thinking too far ahead of them. Or if she was just making a fool out of herself. True, a married couple would fight just as hard for each other as siblings would, but somehow it didn't seem the same. Perhaps it was her pride talking, she didn't want to rely on him just because of her shortcoming. Swallow it dammit. Accept help when it comes. She told herself, falling silent as she leaned against the wall, getting lost in her thoughts.

Tsukiyamoru noticed how she wasn't helping the situation any, leaning her head against the wall to stare at the ceiling. "If Vykin thinks it a good idea, I'll go for the couple scenario." She murmured to him, making sure only he could hear, flashing him a smile. She really had to get over some things, it was the only way they would stop bothering her. Within the sibling relationship, she knew it would bring up things and it might not be any better. She again felt like an outsider, thinking it better when she stayed silent and didn't put her thoughts in. They probably knew better. At least with their own territory she should hope so.

Tsukiyamoru felt her sword at her side, glancing to her clothing. Odd how their minds had moved in the same fashion. She caught his eyes, imagining what was going on behind them. She thought about it for a moment, straightening from the wall. "I'll go with him if thats alright. None of my other clothes would match the disguise." She said softly, nodding to them all before leaving the room, silently catching up with him. "Mind if I join you? I need to do some shopping as well." She murmured, tilting her head a little to look at him. Realizing what this may seem like to everyone, especially Sai, but that wasn't the case. It really wasn't. She just hoped that they knew that.

Tsukiyamoru smiled softly, adjusting the sword at her hip a bit with a small tilt of her head. "I already am. This will be... interesting." She wasn't sure what else she could say about it. She was having fun now, but later... later was what worried her. She pushed it from her mind, watching him pour out a bottle of water, a little bit puzzled, but she didn't show it nor did she ask. She seemed to consider him briefly and then took his hand, glad that she squashed the urge to blush before it showed, she hated it when she blushed too much. "I wasn't worried." She said softly, brown eyes looking up at him after glancing to him emptying the 2nd bottle.

Vykin looked towards Sorain and Tsuki as he finished talking. Vykin nodded slightly and said, "Hidden skills are obviously out, but jutsu, so long as it's minor and nothing elaborate, would be acceptable. It would add to another reason for why they should take us aboard the ship, because we can use chakra... but as for the couple thing," Vykin shook her head slightly as she said to Sorain, "If you're going to couple up that way, may I suggest not being married. Rather affirm that you are together and swear that you'll ******** kill anyone that tries to take her. Tsuki, this is going to be up to you. Either way will work, but whatever you are more comfortable with will obviously be the best choice. If you are going to do that, that's fine. It's all up to you. But I personally am not going to be even seen dating either of you... ******** that. I'd rather make my reputation not attached to some guy I'm bringing onboard with me... it's going to be tough to even make this work, so we'll have to see when we get there."

She thought about things a little bit more as Sorain said that he was going to go buy something more piratey. The Genin said, "Well, yeah, that'd be a good idea. The whole doctor's mask thing you might want to ditch. Not only is it seemingly unnecessary, unless you actually need it or something, but it just doesn't look anything like what a pirate would wear. Tsuki, you might want to wear something more open and movable, considering on a ship, we're going to be working a lot. Something that allows your skin to breath is definitely preferable to that. Sai... I know that I tease you about this all the time... but the pink hair is not going to go over well. If you think that I make fun of you for it... you will hear no end to the insults and ridicule that you will get on that ship. If you don't want to change it, then fine, I won't make you, but just realize the consequences that you have by having that hairstyle."

Vykin said to Sorain and Tsuki before they left, "I'm going to go see if I can get a boat down at the docks for us to use. We're going to sail there rather than go across land. It will take longer, but it will allow us to work on our sailing as we are heading down to Port Prodigal. I'll see you guys a little later. And Sai... think about the hair."

With that, Vykin left to go down to the docks in order to go see what sort of vessel she could get in order for them to sail down to Port Prodigal in.

Sorain sighed deeply at the question,"Yes, You could say that" He said, he contimplated taking off his shirt to show her exactly what he ment but figured that it would be too forward," Well, a year ago I made some automail for my arm, and then made some synthetic skin to cover it but it did not fit, The artifical skin takes about a month to make and i need enough for an entire arm. The rest of my body is sized right, my left arm" He raised his left arm and showed her where the metallic plates where,"here" He pressed his fingers to his neck, "And here" He and he pointed to his chest down to waist line."The rest is human" He said smiling. Sorain opened his kimono to show her a large scar,"Sai has one to match" He said with a sigh.
