“You can stay in here if you want to,” Jax offered as he pulled on his pants and slipped into his shoes. It was just about an hour before sunrise, and although no heavy rain had started to fall, the waves were causing the ship to rock unsteadily, and thunder had started clapping in the night. “I know you don’t like storms. If that thunder is a sign of how close the storm is, I think it’ll probably start raining soon. I don’t want you to feel like you have to be at the center of the action if you don’t want to be.” // @siren-scng​

TIME: Mid-day before the heavy rain starts

Light sprinkles of rain were all that fell from the sky, but the wind was merciless, and the rocking waves made her feel like the ship was going to throw her off at any moment. As the ship hit a particularly choppy wave, Maeve lost her footing and slammed into the railing on the upper deck. “Damnit!” she bellowed - or at least, tried to, as the hit knocked all the wind out of her. “This is ridiculous! Shouldn’t a ship be more stable!?”

TIME: Night before the heavy rain fall starts

"I don’t like this,” Jax said simply, tearing his eyes away from the dark sky. It was nearly time for him to do his usual nightly check of the ship before he treated to his quarters, but with such an ominous sky staring down at him, he knew he wouldn’t sleep any time soon. “I need help bringing up the storm-sails. Have you ever seen the build up to a storm last this long? We need to prepare.”
