Deck of the Cape Rouge, Port of Fandom, Sunday afternoon

[betterthanaplan]

So after yesterday's picnic, Duke had seriously considered raising anchor and just getting the hell back out of Fandom while the going was still good. Unfortunately, he still needed supplies and at least a little more socialization before he was ready to hit the seas again, and an island so small it didn't even show up on any maps was the best damn hiding spot he was going to get from the various and sundry people who either wanted to arrest or kill him.

He was definitely not going to teach a class at the high school though. Certainly not one about piracy. That was just -- people hadn't trusted him around kids when he was a kid. It was clearly nonsense.

Having spent the morning on various repairs and maintenance around his ship, he headed into town for groceries around noon, then set up his small grill on deck to make some lamb shashlik and vegetables. After a couple weeks of living on fish and jerky, kebabs were right up his alley.

[open! Duke's boat's deck is visible and easily accessible from land. Think of it like someone's front patio or driveway, only furnished with crates and random thrifted benches and things.]

Jack was out for a walk. She'd had a talk with Atton earlier and now she was taking a walk. Perfectly normal. The boat was new. She blinked a little. "Fuck me, there's actually a boat at one of the docks? Huh."

[[easily visible and accessible from land, but what of SEA? AH-HA!!!]]

Sidon did feel that perhaps he should be doing more to meet and get to know some of the newer students so recently arrived, but he had the whole school year to do that! With fall right around the corner, and, after that, dreaded winter!, he felt a much better use of his Sunday would be getting in as much swimming as he possibly can. There weren't very many swimming days left for him, after all, he'd best maket he most of it while he could!

Of course, one of his favorite spots to return to after a good venture out into the ocean was the Port, which provided the best view of the island from the water, but what's this? Something new added to the wonderful panorama of the island! Someone had brought a boat! Marvelous! Of course, he'd have to swim up and say hello!

"Hello, there!" he called out, once he was a bit closer, waving his arm from the water. "Fine day for swimming, wouldn't you say? Or for...are you grilling? Then, yes, it's a fine day for that as well!"

A boat! In the port! Fantastic!

This wasn't the first boat that had ever been out here in Rey's time, but it had been the first since she was played with regularity started coming around this area more. She'd come out after work to find someplace to practice with her staff, but she maybe had to slow down to check out the boat.

Some things she just liked because she didn't see them much.

Miguel was mostly just wandering around a bit, but the new boat was hard to miss.

He waved as he got closer, looking it over.
