The feet of the two men kicked up the beach sand, some of the grains ending up inside Komaeda's boots.
He swallowed back, still unable to take his mind off his troubles. He had been close to saying it before they were interrupted, but why...
Why couldn't he muster the courage? It wasn't a complicated problem.
But despite that, the solution would be. How would Komaeda be useful to not only a vampire but the King of Pirates?
Strength, intelligence, status, and he has... Well, his hair was fluffy.
"Here," Izuru suddenly stopped along the row of docked ships, nearly causing Komaeda to run into him. "The Odin's Slave, correct?" The dark man adjusted the hood of his trench coat, then turned to Nagito. "Would you like to stay outside? Many of the Captains will not be hospitable to me."
At that, the pirate quickly shook his head, gripping Kamukura's hand tightly with his real hand.
"I'm going with you, I've been at your side this whole time, I'm not going to let you waltz into danger on your own."
The man remained silent a long moment before exhaling and averting his eyes back to the waiting ship.
"I see the incident in Japan did not deter you. But if you are coming with, I want something in return."
"What is it?"
"You'll tell me what's troubling you when we're finished here."
Komaeda opened his mouth to retaliate, but no words came out. He would be fine, why was the Captain so insistent on knowing?
Hell, Nagito wasn't even a real pirate! He had forced his way into Kamukura's life, and the Pirate King was still worried about a horrible orphan like himself?
He found himself shifting uncomfortably, his grip softening before he released the hand of the dark man.
"... Fine."
How could he refuse a King?
With that, Izuru returned a silent nod and made his way around the side of the ship. Luckily for the men, the ramp of the ship was still down from when they were boarding, making for an easy walk upon the deck, but nobody was in sight.
"Not even the crew is here," Nagito voiced his thoughts aloud, earning a hum from the Captain.
"Why guard a ship with multiple pirate captains aboard? They're all probably on land with the others. As for the gathering though..." Kamukura's eyes shifted about, his ruby orbs investigating everything in his path. Komaeda could only wonder what was going on through Izuru's mind, what information he was taking in just by looking around.
At a moment's notice, he tensed up, eyes narrowing ever so gently, so much to where it was anyone else, they wouldn't have noticed.
"They're below deck. Captain's Quarters, I'm deducing." With a wave to follow, Kamukura strode along, his black boots tapping against the floor.
Komaeda wanted to ask if it was alright to just go inside as they approached the hatch, but decided against it. Izuru was a pirate Captain, wasn't he? He had every right to be among them.
With a sharp inhale, Komaeda clung to the man's sleeve as he pushed the door open and led Komaeda inside with him.
The first thing he noticed was the smell of incense wafting across the room, originating from a candle in the center of a large wooden table.
