Siren laughed at Azriel. "Maybe when you learn to balance well enough to escort me," she teased. "For now, I can escort myself better than you can."

Azaran sighed. Seemed like Amarantha wouldn't be much help. He'd have to do it himself.
He swam to stand beside the princess. He didn't particularly like her, but he gave her the respect she was owed as a princess.
"You can't talk to her like that," he said to the genderless merperson.

Titania noted the scowl on Azaran's face and twisted her tentacles slightly beneath her, keeping her afloat.

She noted the genderless trench dwelling hissing at her, but she really didn't give a crap what they thought. She wasn't technically even queen yet.. which meant their clear dislike of her was unfounded. Her 'mother' as she called her self was in charge of the state of things. Titania wasn't in charge of anything. She was just.. learning to lead.

She gazed over towards the trench dweller, hearing the hatred in their voice. ["If they are not able to release themselves from a simple net, then they are not worthy to be a part of our kingdom." the words were said about the two, but directed more towards Desyl. "Just because one human cut off your arm doesn't mean they are all sinister. Its thinking like yours which causes wars we don't really need in our kingdom, trench dweller." the rings on her body started glowing a more vibrant blue, a warning of the poison she could administer.

(actually side note, because Titania is half octopus, she is technically genderfluid being as octopi can change their genders on a whim. Titania decided to identify as female for now, probably will continue that way for the entire RP tbh. wilI put up the sexualities of the others as well. *nods*)

Rothgar was again annoyed by the 'land ho' by his stereotypical pirate boss. Ugh.. why was she so annoying sometimes? He didn't particularly have a post.. he just.. played with weapons all day, which wasn't really a job sometimes. He leaned with the boat, grumbling to himself as he finished putting away and sorting the weapons, checking them for damage with a brush of his fingers.

Moving to the stern of the ship he waited until they docked with a dark expression on his face. then he followed his captain with a heavy sigh, shoving his hands in his pockets as he towered over her.

(No worries.)

"Quit loomin' over me, ya big lug," Sirensong growled. "I ain't in the mood fer yer bad-tempered scowl. If ya don't wanna be here, stay on the ship and watch over her." Her hand strayed toward the pistol on her hip. She was getting a bit tired of constant- though not obvious- insubordination.
"I'm yer captain and yer savior, and ya'd do well to remember that."

Azaran drifted away a bit. He didn't want to be poisoned even if he could heal himself. "Your Highness," he said quietly, "I agree with you, but perhaps you should let someone else deal with him?"

(Dbskwidb I'm late X( sorry this is so short )

Nayvera hovered silently as the others spoke. Her heart started to beat faster as she noticed the Princess arrive. The Princess were royalty in Nayvera's book , and being in her presence alone were quite astonishing. Consumed in this thought , she zoned out , ignoring practically everything the others said.

((I'll put mine up too!))


They growled, low and dangerous, tail tightening around the anchor. Of course the thoughts of some were accused of starting or helping wars. Sure, humans were useless and awful creatures deserving to be drowned, but that didn't mean they wanted to start a war. After all, it wasn't like any of them could walk on land and end the humans....unfortunately....

"Of course princess. It's only eighty percent of the human population that wants us all dead! There's always the other twenty percent that doesn't give a damn what happens to us. And we can just ignore all the cruelty towards the less sentient animals - after all, who cares if a few sharks are slaughtered for their fins, or if thousands of sea turtles suffocate on human waste, or if our reefs slowly wither away and fish are scared away by their constant need for war and death."

Desyl paused to give themselves a moment to calm their inner anger, knowing it wouldn't do to get arrested for being too aggressive....again..




Verah and Jack made their way over to the side of the ship, Verah going down onto the dock first so he could help his twin down.

"Ok, where first Jackie?" The long haired man paused to think, one hand pressed against his brother's shoulder to steady himself and get used to being on land again.

"I believe I need new earmuffs, actually. And then perhaps we can look for a few items for my healing..." The twins quickly caught up with the others, Verah piping up to say hello while Jack remained quiet, content to just listen to the conversation of the crew and captain.

Rothgar heaved a heavy sigh. "yeah yeah." he stated. "You can't particularly blame me. Sure you saved me, and you are captain.. and i work under you, but I've only been on your ship for like a month. " he shrugged. "Forgive me if i don't respect you immediately considering your age and the fact we've barely done anything together." he tucked his hands into his pockets.

___

Titania gazed over towards Azaran. "Why the heck would I do that?" She asked, skin shifting slightly to the right, her tentacles curling under her slightly as she smirked at Azaran. "If i can't talk to one disgruntled merperson, how would I ever be Queen or whatever?"

Then she rolled her eyes. "Eighty percent is an exaggeration. There are those who dive beneath the waves to rescue the marine life who have been injured, raise and release them, protect their children and keep them safe. When the Lionfish started rearing its head.. no natural predator.. killing everything on the reefs, they started to hunt lionfish because they were protecting sea life. Lionfish are dangerous, their fins, their poison.. if not for them, they would have destroyed our ecosystems. And perhaps an occasional creature dead is not horrible. Who are we to judge them for hunting the creatures we hunt ourselves for food? Trying to see things from every angle is something I have done since I was a child.. and it is not going to change just because you are unhappy with an experience you have had. When I am leader, Justice will be served to all humans who deserve it."

She was calm, though her eyes were burning to show her anger. "I haven't even ascended to the throne yet. It would be nice if you would give me a chance instead of just hating me because of the title I have been given."

Azaran nodded at her words. "I suppose you are right," he told the princess sincerely. "You are not ruler yet, but I pledge my loyalty to you, princess. I will support you as you work toward ruling." He bowed.

"My age? I'm barely younger than ya. Shut yer mouth." Siren snarled. "I grew up on pirate ships, ya lily-livered coward. Ya should be grateful I took ya in. I didn't have ta." She whipped out her pistol and pointed it him. There was a click as she cocked the pistol. "Ya wanna fight me?" She asked him in a deadly voice, her other hand twitching in the direction of her sword.

Malphias hopped off the ship and onto the dock, quick to catch up with the rest of the crew.

"Hey, no no no!" The first mate bolted forward, one hand grabbing Siren's wrist and jerking the pistol upwards, the other pressed against Rothgar's chest.

"There's no need to fight you two. We're in a public space with other sailors and we must at least pretend that we're civilized. This is your first warning, a second one and I will take away your weapons, rank be damned." Slowly, he let go of Siren's wrist and took his hand away from the taller male's chest.

"You two will walk on opposite sides of the dock, got it? No one is getting into a fight today."





Skurax had noticed the argument going on, really only recognizing one of the merfolk in the group. He was about five percent sure that one of them was the princess. Briefly, he wondered why Desyl was getting all worked up - unless humans had been brought up. Or had someone insulted eels or angler fish? He better go and make sure no one died.

He turned to approach the group, silvery fins floating along with like a constant cloud.

"Is there something wrong?" He asked, going up and over the others to be more or less at eye level with Desyl, he honestly couldn't tell what with their creepy little mask, though dark silver eyes stayed on the strangers.

Siren turned to growl at Malphias but it was hard for even her to argue with him. He was just too gorgeous for that. Reluctantly, she uncocked her gun and lowered it. "Consider yerself lucky," Siren muttered to Rothgar. "I'll have respect from my crew, thank ya very much."

(I'm gonna go make a female mermaid.)

Titania let out a laugh which echoed like whalesong. "Thanks for that Azaran. I could use all the help I can get. The Queen.. is.. fading more rapidly than expected. She has been around a thousand years I suppose." she shrugged.

And then as Skurax approached, Titania smiled, tentacles gliding slightly through the water, one of them giving a small wave to the newcomer. "Desyl and I were having a conversation. Actually I was quite enjoying it. A good debate now and again is good for the mind."


_______

Rothgar raised an eyebrow at Siren. "What the heck is wrong for you?" he asked, brow furrowed. "I am not going to fight you, this is why I can't respect you!" he shook his head. "You can't even talk to me civilly without reaching for your weapon."

He rolled his eyes, shaking his head while looking at Malphias. "Seriously, I'm not about to fight her for something so trivial." he narrowed his eyes at Siren. "You'll get respect from me the moment you prove to me you are worthy."

Then he turned back to Malphias. "How long have you been on this ship, working under her?"
