Okay, so, the words "starboard" and "port" exist so that you don't have to clarify whether you mean "the boat's left" or "my left" when you're facing the stern.

They're NOT redundant.

Headcanon // luna’s meditation

luna’s meditation method that she used to calm raven down is generally perceived as something she used to calm herself down and while she did use it herself it was more often used for the other people on the rig. to calm people down when fights broke out, sending someone back to land was a last resort as luna believed it to be a horrible thing to do to someone, to take away their peace. it’s why she had no hesitation in her movements or what she was saying when bringing raven to the ground and having her repeat the mantra. she’d done it many times before and it helped that she was strong enough to handle any fight without violence.

Character // jasper grounder verse

originally born to yujleda jasper eventually finds his way to luna’s rig, he was never overly unhappy in yujleda, he had two loving parents and his friend monty (who was more like a brother). it wasn’t until his village was raided by azgeda warriors who were mad about yujleda’s refusal to take their trade deal. both his parents died in this raid, his father died after sacrificing himself for jasper. he survived by hiding in a swamp outside the village but instead of going back when azgeda left he kept running. he didn’t see a point in going back to his dead parents especially since he didn’t know whether monty had survived or not.

after finding luna’s rig he begins to find peace again, even meets a girl; shay. he never went back to yujleda but he did write a note and send it back with one of luna’s scouts, luna had scouts in every clan to save as many people as possible. on the rig jasper works to keep the on rig farm going, he’s helped them a lot, finding creative ways to grow as many crops as possible. he did well on the rig; the fish took some getting used to, he was never a fan of fish.

Character // luna kom ouskejon

i like the idea of luna being from ouskejon originally as they were vicious fighters and the way she dresses and speaks lines up enough with how i imagine ouskejon. she was very straightforward with clarke and was very serious any time she wasn’t with the kids.

while she tries her best to make everyone on the rig feel like family she has a hard time speaking to the people coming from ouskejon as it reminds her of who she was, overtime she’s tried to relate herself more to the nicer parts of ouskejon culture but it’s not easy for her especially when she hears the stories of how ouskejon refugees made their way out and to the rig. it’s also hard to see the young ouskejon boys who bare similarities to her brother.

it does explain why she only has two tattoos, she got them from an ouskejon artist who had been working in polis a short while before her conclave. tattoos are available on the rig but she doesn’t plan on getting more especially from someone not born to ouskejon.
