ONEXONE CAPT'N JADE AND TESSHIN-SAN- The Silver Fire

[Keriae]

Slipping through the doorway to her cabin, she walked to her desk, pulling the map out of her pocket. As she walked past her bedside drawer, she grabbed the half empty rum bottle and set it on the table as she sat down. Then sheflattened the map out, getting rid of all the creases and studying it carefully. A slender finger rested on the place where they currently were, or round about. Scanning it, she noticed that it would take a while to get to the Silver Fire.

Once everyone was in the right place, and actually doing the job they were supposed to do, Merr could relax. Standing by the side of the ship, although not allowing himself to fall overboard, as he knew how clumsy and careless he was, he tilted his head back so the light breeze bouncing off the sea ruffled through his hair. Smiling and taking a deep breath of the salty sea air, he exhaled slowly, calming himself down after all the shouting. They were back on the sea, where they belonged...

Not a while, a long time. Even with the Pearl, the fastest vessel in the Caribbean. But they were heading the right way, and if they moved through the night...... She'd take over come nightfall. Nat could rest then, but she'd have to get some of the crew to stay up. Hand outstretched, she grasped the rum bottle and lifted the rim to her mouth, trying to perfect her plan.

Merr yawned, stretching out his arms behind his back. The first mate hadn't had a decent nights sleep for several days, and it was really starting to show, when he got careless. Leaning on the side of the ship, he took a deep breath, sorting himself out. He had to stay awake with Jade, just to watch the crew and help out when he could. Without him, Jade would have a lot on her hands... It wasn't her that did most of the shouting...

Putting the bottle down with a muffed clunk, she stood, folding up the map once more and placing it in her pocket. She would tell Merr and Nat, then she would sleep. Striding out, she opened the door and spotted her first mate. "Merr!" She called, leaning against the doorframe as she waited.

Merr was just about to fall asleep on deck when Jade called him and made him jump. Now wide awake, he wandered over to her as she leant against the door frame, a smile on her face. One not matched by his rather blank expression. "Yes Jade?" If this was about him almost falling asleep on the job then there was no way he would apologise... It was only natural after all, but he had a feeling it wasn't about the sleeping, so he would keep his mouth shut anyway.

"We will keep moving tonight. However, so Nat can rest, I shall take the helm. You will join me tonight on deck, and I need you to choose crew members for tonight. Send them to bed. they'll need sleep. Once done, you can sleep too. Nat is perfectly capable of ordering them all." she informed him, smiling. She liked this plan.

Merr nodded to her, smiling softly. Alright Jade. As you wish. Turning his back on her, he went around the crew, picking who was going to work the nightshift. Go on. Scat. Telling them to go to sleep, he glanced around to check that no one for the nightshift was still up, then turned to go to sleep himself. They're all yours Nat. Good luck. She didn't look so amused.

Not really wanting to climb the steps again, the captain simply walked to the bottom of them, cupping her hands around her mouth. "Nat, we're off to bed. Wake us up at nightfall. It's all a new plan to keep on moving." She told her, and, not really needing an answerwalked back to her cabin doo. "Merr, don't forget your have your own cabin now."

Of course he had heard Jade, but he was too tired to really care for what she had said. He was happily curled up on her bed, a look of innocence spread across his features. Not even Nat's shouting in reply to Jade's plan could wake him. Either Jade would have to shove him off the bed or just try and share.
