[She giggles at the still playing and playfulness.]

You always stood a chance. You could have always said no to me. But I am glad to have you here with me. [And here, she will move closer to him in order to lean up and give him a quick peck on the cheek. It's a thank you one. Since he doesn't want her to say thanks she found a loophole!]

After all my previous errors? Never-- [cut off by the peck. welp.

A shake of the head again...he won't let himself reciprocate, but she's too damn cute. So he ends up raising another eyebrow and chuckling instead.] Heh. Yes, well. As if I'd let you go about on your own.

[SPEAKING OF he takes another glance around the empty cabin]

[She giggles a little at his reaction and just goes to smile up at him.]

You better remember those words and keep them. [One last playful jest as she sees him glancing at what was her home for several months.

The tiny ship creaks with each movement of the ocean and it is more then obvious that in this cabin at least, that there were beorcs occupying this cabin.]

Like I said. You don't have to worry anymore.

[It's obvious she was friends with whoever these people were, and they couldn't have been that bad if they knowingly took in and cared for a laguz. But...

But he doesn't know how to go about this. She's been here longer than him.] Do you want to stay here?

And that brings joy to my heart to hear....

[Okay gonna give him some very well deserved space now as she listens to his question. She does frown a little at it and moves about the cabin, shaking her head.]

Even if I did wish for such a thing, it would be best if we search for another crew to stay with. Winry.... Before she was taken away, she was trying to do so so that we would have a chance out in these seas.

[She goes to look back towards Naesala, she does have a sadden look in her eyes but at least there is still a smile.] And I already received an invitation to join one crew....

[just watches her move about, not wanting to disturb anything himself]

I don't suppose we could find our way home living on an island, could we? [Ughh humans and their boats. He is going to LOVE his time here in this insane world, he just knows it.

SIGH] Right. Tell me about this invitation.

[A small shake of her head in response to his question.]

None, at least so far none from what Ed could find. [Okay, now she is gonna head back towards him, just letting her wings drag a little behind her.]

I do not know the crew nor the one that invited me, myself but Winry has told me about them as a potential new crew. One though I know for a fact can understand our chirps and whistles. They are called the Spade Pirates.

[oh. oh great.

Putting aside the strange info that there's a human that can understand avian chirps, the thing that stands out the most to him is]

You don't know who these people are? How can we be expected to trust an entire crew of pirates? [shh she doesn't know he's being a hypocrite]

[And now we are gonna get a lesson in Heron 101. Lesson one, Heron are just so bloody trusting.]

They seem like they are nice and Winry seemed like she trusted them. [Did.... Did she make a mistake? Oops....]

[Naesala's not angry; he's just never understood blind faith. Not in this type of situation.] It's -- you can't just trust people at their word, Leanne. Especially when they're beorc. Very rarely do you find anyone willing to do these things out of the kindness of their heart alone.

[it doesn't help that he really doesn't want to do this, period]

I am sorry.... I have already accepted their invitation though. [She feels bad because of this.] I should have consulted with you first....

...You were afraid. I know that. [gdi now look what he did] I'm just...saying you have to be more careful.

[sigh ok if the damage is already done] You don't know a thing about this crew? No names, nothing?

I was but still.... [A quick thought on how to make him happier.] If you desire to switch crews after meeting this crew.... We can go and find a new one.

[She goes to shake her head.] I know that there is Thatch and Marco. Marco is the one that can speak avian.

Both of us will have to see when we get there. As of right now, I'm not trusting anyone. [Wants to make her happy too, but. Strange world. Strange people. Trust?? what is.

He files those names away for later.] Avian...right. Hm. ...Is one of them the captain? I don't imagine crew members would be inviting without permission.

[She blinks at his corrections and could help but to smile and hover a little.] We shall see then what the goddess has decided for us to see then. I will be counting on you being distrustful on my behalf as well.

[She goes to think for a moment, trying to recall if one is the captain or not.] I think the one named Thatch is. They usually don't?

[hah; okay, that one got him] I think I can manage enough wariness between the two of us. Do me a favor and be on your guard as well, alright?

[nods in understanding] If the captain's in charge, it wouldn't make sense for just anyone to begin collecting crew mates. But what do I know, the beorc already do so many things backwards.

[She chuckles and nods her head a little.] I shall try my best to remain on my guard.

Beorcs are quite the strange race I seem to have found out with my time with them. [Okay, yes there is her seat on one of the beds. Sitting down now.] What should we do should these pirates are bad?

[Steps around the room a little, arms crossed and absently looking towards the door.]

I don't know. We'd be forced to flee, most likely. I'm good, but I can't take on an entire crew single-handed. We don't know how large their numbers are, either. [under his breath] Hopefully it wouldn't come to that.

(She watches him as he paces and thinks.)

I shall pray that we don't have to use force then. (Cause noooooo, no getting hurt Naesala! She forbids it. She goes to let out a small sigh of her own, leaning back a little.) The one of all of them we should find first is Marco and see how he is like.

[He gives her a small smile at the first comment, before he comes to a stop near her seat.]

This Marco can understand avian - but, you're sure he's no laguz? Earlier you made it seem like...well, you were the only one you knew about, before I showed up.

I am sure..... [She goes to think for a moment.] For one, it sounded like he doesn't have clans and they are called Zoans. I never met him nor saw him yet. He calls himself a phoenix and said that there is one other phoenix. But I have never met either one myself so I won't make a full judgement on them just yet. So to my knowledge there is no other here.

Hmph. Phoenix. [He sounds it out, because it sounds so much like Phoenicis. What was that about not making judgement? Wait, too late, he's made judgement.] If "zoan" are like laguz, that's something at least. Home had far too many beorc as it was.

It sounds like you don't like phoenixes. (She goes to giggle out at him.) .....

Are all laguz dying out there as well?

[well if they're anything like HAWKS just ugh frowning forever]

"As well"? [Good thing he's adept at hiding his emotions from her. Because it may be obvious he's doing that rn.] And, no...no, I didn't mean to imply that. We're just in the minority, comparatively, and the beorc think they can treat us however they'd like. As always.

[Hawks are not bad but crows are forever better in Leanne's mind.]

..... It seems like beorcs will never learn from their past..... [Pulling her legs up in order to rest her chin against her knees. And yup, forever barefoot.] Hearing that makes this world seem a lot better. [Toe wiggles.]
