Essex V

[Babydoll Animis]

Aiden was wide eyed, did she know? When she looked away he sighed with relief. He leaned against one of the barrels thinking it was full of whatever goods the jackal had in it. He was wrong, the barrel tipped over along with Aiden, the barrels all tiped over and rolled across the ship. He froze in fear on his hands and knees.

[Aconitum]

Acon whipped around to face the noise and growled. "Who the hell are you?!"

[Babydoll Animis]

He remained silent but gathered his wits. He stood up and brushed himself off and looked at the jackal still curious, he approached her and walked around her, he put one of his hands on her cheek and looked into her eyes, he then began tugging around at her clothes. He let out another huff.

[Aconitum]

Acon was a bit weirded out, but when he started tugging at her clothes, she brought back her fist before she flung it forward, punching the fur in his nose.

[Babydoll Animis]

Aiden stood there unwavering as the jackal's fist made contact. He simply stood there like a statue,he then grabbed her fist and uncurled each finger,he studied her palm closely, his cloth wrap became red with blood from hs nose but he seemed to not mind. "Aiden" he said with a low and rugged voice

[Aconitum]

Acon raised a brow as she let him study her paw. "Uh... Acon." She cautiously introduced herself. "Is there a reason you're touching me?"

[Babydoll Animis]

"Never met one of you before... just wanted to get a good look... you are very good looking."Aiden stated bluntly

[Aconitum]

"Uh... thanks, I guess." She thought a moment before speaking again. "You've never met a Jackal before? Where are from exactly?"

[Rayleonarde]

Ray sighed, as he was shepherded out of the cells, and brought out for work. The guardsmen brought him to Captain Lovien. "Ma'am? Do you need an extra worker for a while? We're supposed to give him something to do, but we can't think of anything to do."

[Aconitum]

Acon turned and studied Ray for a moment. "Yeah, have him go back there and rearrange the cargo, I don't know."

[Rayleonarde]

Ray's shackles were loosened, and he went to work, stacking boxes and barrels. The guardsmen nodded. "Keep an eye on him, he's suspected for murder." With that, they turned, and left.

[Aconitum]

Acon smiled and leaned into threshold of the opening in the back of the ship. She studied Ray with a curious eye. "So... what are ya in for?"

[Rayleonarde]

Ray shrugged. "I don't remember. Though, recently the thought is I killed my companion." He sat another down.

[Aconitum]

Acon smirked. "Let me guess, you're innocent though, right?" She shook her head in amusement.

[Rayleonarde]

"According to the authorities, I'm not. But I didn't kill my brother in chains. But if you're an armed prisoner...people tend to not believe you." Ray put another barrel in the ship.
