  You awoke to a nudge on your side. Slowly opening your heavy eyelids, but the blinding sun forced them shut once again. Gradually opening them, you found Elora standing over you with a smile. It was typical that she would wake you from your slumber, but this time you saw it unsettling for some odd reason. Partially because you were not in your bedroom where you felt secure, but sprawled across barrels and crates; you must have passed out.

"You had fun." She said eyeing a stain of alcohol on your shirt.

"Ahoy sister dear..." You croaked. With all the rum you had last night, and the constant singing took a toll on your throat. "You missed quite a grand time."

She laughs, "have you forgotten already? I was there all night, not a wink of sleep. You were, too; the only different thing was that I was sober and looking after you."

You sat up from the two crates you were lying on. "Where are the others?" You say this as you stretch the knots out of your back.

"Still asleep, but the Nordics are up, and some of the other mates are too." She directed her focus to the other ships. Following her gaze you found Elizabeta chasing after Gilbert, Matthew talking with Alfred, Leon having an arm wrestle with Lukas as the other Nordics watched.

"What an odd sight to see so early in the morning..." You yawned as Elora pulls you to your feet.

You crane your neck. "Is our course still set due south? No one boarded Yao's ship, did they? If anyone did, they could have turned our direction." The two of you walk towards the mainmast.

"I was up all night handling our wheel and watching over the other ships, I can assure you, no one has derailed our course."

You ruffle her hair, proud, "good job, sister. Now shall we?"

The two of you took hold of a rope and swung yourselves towards the other ship. Elora landed where Matthew and Alfred were talking, while you landed next to Leon and the Nordics. Lukas didn't expect your arrival and was distracted from his arm-wrestling battle causing him to lose.

"Yes!" Leon shouted in triumph.

"I demand a rematch; I was distracted!" Lukas slams his fist against the crate as he shouts back.

Leon clicked his tongue as he crossed his arms, "excuses, excuses..those coins in your pockets are looking a Lil' heavy. You know I could always hold them for you." Looking over his shoulder, he smiles when he sees you, "Hello (Boy name), or should I say (name)?"

You roll your eyes in response, "How about Captain?" You say teasingly, Tino laughed at your statement.

You placed your hands on the table and leaned against it, "how are you lots doing? Feeling good sailing on the sea again?"

Berwald simply nodded while Emil did the same, until his puffin spoke for him, "It's great! Even better that you're here!"

Emil looked over to his bird, shutting its beak as he did. "D-don't mind him.."

"what about you, Tino?"

"It feels great to be back on the ship! Except for the fact, I get motion sickness at night, but it's nice~!"

You smile in response, looking over to Lukas to ask the same question, but you found him pouting. "What's with the long face?"

He mumbled in response. "Hm?" You ask

Leon laughs, "Ha! Don't tell me you're salty about losing the game!"

Lukas continued to fume. "Hey." you tap Leon's shoulder, "How about we have a game?"
