((WOOT!!! :boogie: It's starting!))

Time to set sail.

Fenris heard the captain's order, and moved to help with the anchor. He was part of the crew - and quite the prize when it came to hired muscle. Helping the others, he heaved the massive weight into place. They were under way within minutes.
The salty breeze made the broad-shouldered male shudder lightly. He enjoyed the thrill of being on board a ship as large as this one. With his gray eyes narrowed, he moved away from the crewmen and toward the captain. Marquet was dressed in extravagant clothing, as he'd recently taken to wearing. Fenris managed to keep the scowl off his features, but only until he felt a presence near his ankles. He glared down to find a pale youth sitting beside him.

Joseph Laiden met Fenris' gaze with his own. His dark eyes were emotionless, as was his face. Instead of moving away from where he sat, Laiden kept his place. It wasn't unusual to find the boy trailing after the other male: he was constantly following Fenris, no matter where he went.
Unlike his muscular companion, though, Joseph didn't enjoy the ocean. The rocking of the ship sent his stomach into a series of somersaults, and he swallowed forcefully to keep himself from getting sick. A woman's voice made his black gaze dart toward the captain. Eying Codette for a few moments, Laiden smiled slightly to himself. Like most men, he enjoyed the company of women. The only difference was that Joseph was more like a child: he loved listening to females talk, he took pleasure in watching them do trivial tasks, and if he was ever away from Fenris he was surrounded by women. His interest in the opposite gender was quite innocent . . . it was much like a puppy's interest in human beings.

Fenris followed Laiden's gaze. When he saw Codette, his usual scowl returned. The woman was drop-dead gorgeous, but it didn't seem to affect the tall male much. Instead, he immediately made the decision to dislike her. He didn't like many people, so it wasn't unusual.
He fixed Laiden with a look that kept the boy in place. "Stay clear of that one, boy." His tone was rough, and his gaze harsh, but the youth merely nodded and edged closer to Fenris' legs. He was really having a hard time getting used to the sway of the ship.
