"What's your definition of 'Jerk'?" Josiah responded, looking up from the crystal that he treasured so much.

"Hating everyone and refusing to get along with someone."

Riseley contemplated through the nearest available object at his face (a stinky old boot, Josiah's, probably), but decided against it. Oh well. If he's determined to put on such a performance, then he can.

"I don't hate everyone." (He pretty much did.) "I only have skirmishes with a couple people because they set me off, okay? I'm not extremely offended by the entire human race if that's what you think. I can get along well with other people, just not right now!" Josiah argued against the captain. "Besides, after being in a war and shot at by my own people for six years, a break is all I can ask for."

“See now I know your lying. Jade hasn’t had internal conflict for as long as I’ve lived. The wueens grip is much too strong. So unless you’re talking about a smaller rebellion, I don’t believe you. Also from what I’ve seen, you have never once been nice to someone,” Cicada responded. She had people in each kingdom that kept her updated on the politics.

Zoe groaned. Houston was too annoying and Josiah was really being a jerk and showing off today. She figured training would calm her down and not kill anyone today as she went to her cabin and started to throw knives.

Riseley left the cannon area and went toward the storage in his cabin. The noise in that area could only mean someone has moved their stuff. Again.

(I meant his people hated him so much that he got shot at even though he was fighting with them. Sorry for the confusion.)
"But I have fought with those people and they denied me. I've been denied too much. My crystal is the one of life, for god's sake. I've managed to survive this far, and I'm going to keep trying." Josiah wasn't giving up in this argument.

(Okay.)

Cicada looked at him, "One rule in this crew is that you get along with others. You can't hate for the sake of hating. If you do your no better than those that shot you, who denied you. Your making mine, and everyone else's life on the ship more difficult. The crystal of life is for someone to spread life, not keep it selfishly to themselves," Cicada looked at him, "If you can't understand that then you are going to have to choose a different crystal. To take one must receive."

(Is he okay?)

"I do." Josiah looked Cicada right in the eyes. "I had a family. And then they all died. Remember how the crystal is more likely to choose us? This one shone for me. I'll try not to throw things at anyone as long as you don't give me the cold shoulder either. Believe it or not, that's what you're doing. And perhaps you don't have to say my name with such malice. Call me Josie." He fixed his gaze suddenly on something out the window.

(Ok lol)
River walked in

(Aww this is a moment gonna make my character ruin it.)
"Cap, we're near port!" Zoe yelled, to where ever she was.

"I do." Josiah looked Cicada right in the eyes. "I had a family. And then they all died. Remember how the crystal is more likely to choose us? This one shone for me. I'll try not to throw things at anyone as long as you don't give me the cold shoulder either. Believe it or not, that's what you're doing. And perhaps you don't have to say my name with such malice. Call me Josie." He fixed his gaze suddenly on something out the window.

(Also they're in the crow's nest right? There are no windows up there.)

Cicada looked to Josie, "Try to be nicer to us, and we'll try to be nicer to you."

She slid down the mast and looked to the land, "Get the crystals deep below deck. Let no one see them. Onyx would kill for them."

"Aye aye captain." Zoe replied before she starting pushing crates of crystals down below.

River looked towards the port

Cicada walked to River, "You ready to shore on Onyx?"
