People as flowers
Bold: always; Italics: kinda
Daisy
Wears their heart on their sleeve. Soft voice. Minimalistic clothing. Laying in a field of tall grass. Walking barefoot. Puts other people’s happiness above their own.
Bellflower
Very consistent friend. Happy face with sad eyes. Careful touches. Hiding a blush. Light giggles. Makes friends easily. Knows how to make you smile.
Protea
Proud. Big gestures. African heritage. Blushes easily. Tries to look tough but is really just a big softie. Content where they are. Doesn’t love easily, but always deeply.
Moonflower
Knowing smiles. Doesn’t open up easily. Late night. Tired eyes. Soft skin. Not as innocent as they seem. Loose clothing.
Bleeding Heart
Hopeless romantic. Still laughs at dirty jokes. Believes they can change the world. Caring looks. Dyed hair. Kisses on the cheek.
Sunflower
Big smiles. Always looking for the positive. Lots of friends. Warm afternoons. Basking in the sun. Stares off into space a lot. Sitting in comfortable silence.
Dandelion
Wishing for the impossible. Shooting stars. Light breezes through their hair. White clothing. Whispered secrets. Far off looks. Kind eyes.

The Cassandra ⚓
// ... vici wanted to talk about ships
(model is from the Smithsonian Museum of American History in Washington, D.C., but I took the picture hence the quality)
The Cassandra is a Dutch clipper ship- two decks, three masts, but low to the waves for speed. The Cassandra, despite being a trade vessel, was outfitted with seventy-four (74) guns in case of attacks by pirates, or in case of being called upon to become a merchant marine vessel (although the term ‘merchant marine’ would not be in proper use until the 20th century) to serve during wartime.
Before coming to Caelan she had a storied past. Originally she was a trade vessel between the Netherlands and Japan, before being captured by pirates in the south China sea. After only a few short years she was captured again, this time by pirate hunters backed by the East India Trading Company at which point she was sold into service of the British crown for a lovely bonus to the existing bounty. Primarily she carried cargo like ceramics, art, tea, and sugar (luxury items). A few paintings and folding screens from her time trading in Dejima remain on board, notably one of cranes in flight that decorates the galley.
Appearance-wise, the Cassandra has beautiful gilding along the sides, which are typically painted a pale blue and ivory. She flies a continental flag, except when he wishes to be dramatic and also runs up an upside-down union jack, the mark of a captured vessel. Her figurehead is of a long-haired woman who cradles a stylized golden sun to her bare chest (which is very on-brand for Caelan’s tastes though he claims the imagery is lucky and anyway it’s simply too difficult to replace the figurehead at this point so best not to).
headcanon; Caelan can't cook.
He's not incapable of feeding himself, exactly, but anything more complex than 'make fish black over campfire' goes badly. Prep work he can do just fine, if guided- he is good with a knife by necessity and, honestly, it's not that difficult to quarter root vegetables or dice herbs. Anything that requires precise measurement, wait times, or specific amounts of heat applied he is fairly useless at and will, inevitably, wind up staring at until begging for help.
He can clean fish, too, because he has enjoyed fishing from a young age and the two skills go hand in hand. He does not yet know how to prepare other animals, but Ayashe (@mkuigcn )has endeavored to teach him some of those skills.
In short he is delighted to help and frankly excited to be involved if a friend calls on him to help in the kitchen, but it requires a lot of oversight to keep him from either undercooking the meal or burning off his eyebrows. Again.

but the ocean is calling, and i must go hear what it has to say.
headcanon; Caelan is able to read and write quite well, and has enough schooling in math and science to understand practical chemistry (read: poison making) and keep his own books while trading (smuggling). It was deemed important by his mother and then later guardians with education that he be literate.
He was far from the best student, however, more likely to find a hiding place and dodge an increasingly frustrated mother's lessons in favor of playing with easily distracted novices or various animals around the Homestead. Even as an adult he finds reading supremely boring and actively avoids books, newspapers, or even overly long letters*.
Writing has proven very useful to him as a hard skill and a stress-reliever. Caelan keeps meticulous logs but also has a personal journal with prose-like, occassionally editorialized and exaggerated, entries about voyages and current events. Occassionally he partakes in poetry.
Much of his experience with chemistry and other sciences is self-taught or picked up as an adult, especially after reconnecting with the Assassin Brotherhood.
* He makes an exception for loved ones; even though he gets bored by most letters or books if someone he cares for takes the time to write him he lingers over and over on every word. That said he would still rather be read aloud to than read any book they try to give him.
