Yo ho, haul together Hoist the colours high Heave ho, thieves and beggars Never shall we die The bell has been raised From it's water grave Hear it's sepulchral tone? A call to all Pay heed the squall And turn yourself toward home

    “Okay,” he whispered gently, calming himself down. She was asking him for something he knew had to be hard to ask for because it was something he had denied himself as well ever since his son became his number one priority. “I’ll stay,” he assured, moving to make a spot for himself on the bed, nodding to her once he was settled so she could move closer if she liked.

Again, there was hesitation as she watched him settle into her bed, nerves bubbling up and begging to burst free. Taking a breath, she resolved not to let them get the better of her. Slowly but surely, she climbed into the spot beside him, moving as close as she would allow herself. “I know it sounds selfish, but I just really don’t want to be alone.” She likely would’ve moved back to the ship if not for her recurring nightmares, something she hoped to avoid any of the crew knowing about. “And you...you’re really good at knowing how to help me, even when I don’t think I need it.” Not something she’d likely admit aloud again.

“Yes – not because you need me to but because you deserve it.” Or maybe she did need it but Claude was not going to make that assumption. He was doing this because he wanted to. It wasn’t quite a yes but it was a start so he took her hand and lifted her easily out of the pool, despite being just a teacher he did work on his physique. “I do have a kid. I’m not totally oblivious,” he spoke playfully. It was more out of modesty that he had turned away the first time which was maybe one of the only lessons on being a gentleman that he took seriously as a kid.

Eden was left a bit speechless at his answer, words she’d never expected to hear in regard to herself. Yet here he was saying them. She almost would’ve thought it to be a dream if not for the fact she’d been plagued by nightmares near every night, and this was anything but a nightmare. Clinging to the man for support once free of the water, the redhead’s tail quickly and seamlessly shifted back into legs, taking any traces of her mermaid form with it. “Aye, but isn’t he about ten now? It’s alright to admit you’ve forgotten how it all looks,” she teased back, his playful tone already beginning to alleviate her mood. Stepping away after what could’ve been perceived as a few seconds too long, she moved to reclaim her clothes, pulling on just the bare minimum and scooping the rest into her arms. “I suppose we should head back downstairs, yeah?”

“And you’re not trying just the least bit harder to blend in here because of it?” It wasn’t meant to sound nearly as condescending as it had aloud, and Eden found herself cringing at her own voice. It reminded her far too much of her father. “I’m sorry if I’m not coming off so great, I just...have a lot to deal with and nothing is making sense and I really need some answers that I can’t seem to find on my own. Which is just fantastic, as I’m sure you can imagine. But none of that is on you, and taking it out on you will only leave us both feeling like shit.” Fuck, maybe she was going soft?

“Look, Uma, we can’t change what’s happened to us. We can only choose how we let it affect us.” The past was the past, a fact they had to accept. No matter how Eden wished that wasn’t the case. “We still have the future in within our control.”

The creature shook his head as if clearing away the fog induce by the pain. It felt odd to be in this new body but it was still his, it felt just as right as it felt strange. As soon as the pain faded in this new body so did the animal instinct clawing at every corner of his mind. His senses were a little overwhelmed but none of it showed as he blinked at Eden, recognizing her as friend. The werecoyote let out a huff at the humiliating suggestion, he was no house pet. He tried to take a step forward but instead he felt his paw become tangled in his shredded clothes. Great. He nosed at the fabric and glanced between it and Eden, expecting her to do something about the situation.

“Yeah, don’t act all high and mighty. I’m still going to pet you, we’re just gonna agree not to talk about it once you’re in your human again.” As if to prove her point, she laid a light hand on his head the moment she was within reach. Several pats later, the pirate turned her attention towards the clothes, working carefully to untangle her friend from the stack. Another light scratch just behind the wild dog’s ear, and Eden was rising to her feet. “Is that better?”

        “  can i help you ?  ”    code switching has  ALWAYS  come easily to hector barbossa’s daughter and she could  EASILY  switch from  pirate talk  to  auradon talk  ;   the crew did teach her well  .   out here  ,   it was about survival of the fittest  -  and adelaine  already  decided that for herself ?   that would mean being to blend in  ANYWHERE  .    she vaguely recognizes the other redhead  ,   perhaps she was in the jail ?   adelaine herself was otherwise focused  ,   there’s a  reason  why she came out untouched  .      “  because i have to get to the school to meet up with some friends  .  ”     (  @blvcksail wanted a starter )

“Cut the act, I know who you are and it’s not fooling me.” Something she wanted to make very clear right off the bat. Eden had never been one for playing games, and she wasn’t about to let this girl think otherwise. “I want information, and I’m hoping your relationship with your father is better than mine is.”

     “me da’ only ever really talked ‘bout neverland so it’s all i’d know. but good tae know there’s more deadly ones out there. not surprising he never told ye that either. mine wouldn’t ever tell me who my ma was either.” not that it seemed to matter anymore. that phase of his life had been over as quickly as it had begun. no use in wishing for something that couldn’t be. “or maybe the risk is more worth the reward. why would they want ye dead if yer one of ‘em?? wouldn’t they welcome ye?? what if it’s yer da’ that doesn’t want ye discovering that ye could be so much more than ‘im.”

“Because I’m not one of them,” Eden answered, making it very clear that the statement wasn’t up for debate. “I’ve never swum in the open ocean, I’ve only ever tapped into my mer abilities when there was no other option, and I know next to nothing about what being one of them is even like. I may have scales and a tail when wet, but I’ll never be one of them, Harry. Not in any way that they would accept.” A point her father had spent years drilling into her brain. “Just...drop it. Please.”

“You’re telling me.” She mumbled in agreement, it was some prejudicial bullshit. It made her angry that they had the audacity to even say something like that to someone from her crew, someone she saw close to family almost. “Don’t listen to those words. You are not a killer, you are not what they say you are. That is some fucked up shit that if I had them right in front of me, I would cut them up into pieces for even saying that to you. You are you, you are Eden, a bloody amazing pirate and one bad-ass person in my book. Don’t let their words get you.” The blonde said as she put her hands on her shoulders. “They kept calling me names, you know, stupid bloody task force. Kept taunting me that they’re going to do to me exactly what the Beast did to my father if they found out that I did kill that advisor or if i was responsible for any of the other crimes.” Ellie said. She loved her father but being compared to him, it was something she hated.

“They’re going to toss you from a high tower to plummet to your death?” Eden couldn’t help the mild amusement in her tone, brow raised at the audacity of the insinuated punishment. “Or do they not realize that’s the promise they’ve made? Certainly wouldn’t put the lapse in memory past them. That lot didn’t exactly seem to be the most keen on details.” No, they’d really only been looking for a scape goat to lay the blame on. Someone weak willed enough to crack under interrogation and just take the blame to make the questions stop. It wasn’t a subject she was wanting to linger on, but she knew it would take something worth the time and thought to sway Ellie on a different path of thought. “Hey, can we stow the task force talk for a bit? I have another...well, I don’t know that I’d call it a problem, but it’s something I could definitely use some advice on.”

If she chose it. He might have been afraid if he really thought she meant to do him harm but as he took a long look at her, he saw someone desperately calling for him to not be afraid. To run away for her own safety, not his. Claude could be wrong but he was willing to take the risk as he knelt down by the edge of the pool. “If I regret it that’s my choice, Eden. You can keep trying to scare me but it won’t work so instead, you could let me take care of you for the night. I know you must be tired.” His son was being babysat by a trusted friend overnight because he knew it might come to this, he knew he would want to be there for her.

“Take care of me?” As much as she hated to admit it, the concept was one she wasn’t at all familiar with. Sure, she’d had wounds tended to by crew mates, had Leland check in with her a few times when they’d all made the move to Auradon, but this was different. Would saying yes make her weak? God, she wanted to, though, regardless of how it made her sound. And perhaps that’s what frightened her the most. Not that he hadn’t run away, not that he’d offered to stay, but the relief and realization that she wanted him to. “Maybe we just start with you helping me out of the pool,” she whispered, offering him her hand. “I’ll shift back as soon as I’m out, so prepare for that.” There was a common misconception that merfolk needed to be completely dry to swap fin for legs, and, while she didn’t mind him seeing her nude, she had noted how he’d turned earlier to give her privacy when stripping.

“I can’t — it’ll ruin my hair.” He ran his fingers through his wild locks. Truthfully, he disliked water because he was afraid of seeing waterlogged figures underneath its depths. They were some of the worst figures, eternally trapped in a cycle of unawareness and drowning. “Besides, I need more than just bragging rights to get motivated, otherwise it’s no fun.”

“It’ll ruin your hair.” Eden supposed that was the very moment she decided she was done wasting her time on this moronic waste of space. Not even bothering with another word, she took a step back and turned towards town. She had far better things to do than threaten someone who clearly wasn’t going to take it seriously.

peach, strawberry, cherry

peach: do you have any piercings or tattoos?

“I have multiple ear piercings, and a few tattoos.”

strawberry: favorite desserts?

“I don’t know…all of them? It’s a whole new food category, so I haven’t really thought about it.”

cherry: can you play any musical instruments or can you sing?

“I could sing a man to his death if I so chose to. A voice of lethal beauty is part of the Whitecap mermaid package.”

It took a beat longer for her to reply than it should’ve, and Eden could only hope the hesitation wouldn’t be taken as something more than it was. “It is, yeah. And please, don’t ask again. I can’t say with full confidence I’ll be able to repeat my answer.” Letting people in was hard when you’d spent your whole life locking them out. And yet, she didn’t find she wanted to keep those walls up with Claude. Reasons for which she still couldn’t seem to grasp.

[blvcksailss]

"Stay with me tonight."

Not exactly where she’d seen the conversation going, but that appeared to be the trend whenever she spoke with Harry lately. “Are you going to tell me what this is about? And please don’t tell me it involves more merfolk questions.”

[blvcksailss]

"Stay with me tonight." / claude

“I…what?” Because how else was she meant to respond? No one had ever asked her to stay the night, save for Leland meaning for her to remain on the ship, but this was different. An invitation versus the request of a captain. “You really want me to stay? Here? With you? All night?” Eden swallowed, mouth suddenly dry. She hated the way her voice sounded, her insecurity showing in her tone. “…are you sure?”

nectarine:, orange, apricot, star fruit and dragonfruit

nectarine: would you consider yourself an emotional person?

“Emotionally stunted, maybe.”

orange: do you have long eyelashes?

“Weird question, but I guess…?”

apricot: what do you do when you’re sad?

“Hit stuff until the feeling goes away. Usually followed by an unnecessarily long bath, because no one can see you cry if you’re already wet.”

star fruit: favorite sea creature?

“Myself. Joking, obviously. Sharks. I have far too many self loathing moments to actually list myself as a favorite anything.”

dragonfruit: do you drink alcohol?

“How else would I deal with avoiding my emotions?”
