A font like this - Smiles softly = doing something

Sunlight shines throughout my room and hits my face I cover my eyes with the blanket. It's morning, I want to get more sleep. Last night I only got 3 hours of sleep but I have a job to do. I sit up and get out of bed, I undo the mini twin braids in my hair, and go to the shower, once I was done I got into my uniform, put my hair in a messy ish bun, and left my room to go to HQ. Once I was there I was greeted by the team's pilot or our IT officer Shellington Bengtsson. He wakes way earlier than I do, 4:00 am to be exact.
(NOTE: the last name is not cannon)

Shellington: Get enough sleep captain?

Captain Tweak: If three hours of sleep was the recommended amount of sleep then I said I did. Smiles softly

Shellington: Smiles I take that as a no.

Captain Tweak: Anyways, was there anything unusual?

Captain Tweak: Anyways, was there anything unusual?

Shellington: Nope, there wasn't anything unusual so far. Maybe it will stay that way or maybe not. Who knows?

Captain Tweak: Yep, being out on sea anything can happen. You even got eaten once.

Shellington: Puts his hand behind his neck Hehe... Yeah...

Captain Tweak: Seriously though how could you not tell the difference between a whale shark's mouth and a cave?

Shellington: I-I don't know...

Captain Tweak: One is pink and squishy while the other is hard and dark.

Shellington: Under his breath, That's what she said.

Captain Tweak: What?

Shellington: Anyway, isn't Elizabeth awake at this time?

Captain Tweak: Uh no? It's 4:30 am. She sleeps until... Wait what time does she wake up?

Shellington: It changes all the time. But last Wednesday she got up at this time.

Captain Tweak: Elizabeth is a mixed bag but that's what I like about her. Every day it's a surprise what kind of trouble she will get into.

Shellington: Recently she has been acting less like herself. Anytime I try to ask her about it she brushes it off.

Captain Tweak: I've also been noticing that too. I'm quite worried.

Shellington: Maybe it's because of that call she got?

Captain Tweak: I'm not sure but we shouldn't be digging into it as it's her problem and if she wants to open up about she can but if she doesn't it's fine.

The sound of the octo-shoot opening up. A female penguin came out of it doing a backflip. Once she was on her feet she greeted the two. The female was a pirate. Well, she once was a pirate now she's an Octonaut. Pirates don't have the best rap, so Captain Tweak is conscious of the female as she doesn't know what kind of crimes she has committed. (In my au it's quite hard to keep track of pirates since they are hard to find and when they are found it's normal the nice pirates) The female penguin was named Elizabeth Rosalie a single mother of two kids one of them is nine years old the other is fourteen. Her origins go unknown, but she is still a member of the Octonauts.

6:30 AM

Almost everyone was awake at this time except for Ursa, and Orson. It was still calm as it was earlier that morning and Shellington and Bianca went outside to see if they can find some new animals and take pictures. Pinto and the Vegimals were being "home" schooled by Elizabeth. Despite her energetic personality Elizabeth has the most degrees out of everyone even more than all the scientists in the Octonauts combined.

With Bianca & Shellington

Bianca: Shellington?

Shellington: Hm?

Bianca: Why don't you ever let me drive?

Shellington: You crashed the gups so many times.

Bianca: You've been showing how to drive!

Shellington: So?

Bianca: What's the point of showing me to drive the gups when you won't let me drive?!

Shellington: It's not my fault captain doesn't trust you yet.

Bianca: It's been 2 years that I've driven the gups you and Paani had shown me what not and what to do.

Shellington: Sighs She's just been cautious ever since that accident.

Bianca: That was a year ago.

Shellington: I know but she's doesn't want to take chances since in her past that accident happened but worse with led to her losing the people she cared for.

Bianca: That is a good reason but that was in the past.

Shellington: The thing is Tweak can't let go of the past. It doesn't matter how long ago it was she won't let go. It's hurting her more than if she let go.

Bianca:...

Shellington:...

Bianca:...

Shellington: Well, let's try to cheer up the mood.

Bianca: Uhm, what's your favorite picture that you have taken?

Shellington: Puts his hand on his neck Well... It's a picture of Dashi and Koshi together. It's a cute sister bonding moment.

I'm just going to leave it here. Also, I updated almost everyone's designs. I'm not gonna make another chapter with only character designs. I'll post a video on it when I finish my gender swap au, swap au, and my main au designs. (It may take a while though cause I have a lot of characters to do)
