(Lol ok)
She turned to glare at Houston “why?!” She asked
(Lol ok)
She turned to glare at Houston “why?!” She asked
"Because quoting. "JUST FOR FUN." Zoe yelled from below.
“Thanks Zoe!” She yelled back down. Then she turned to face him “HOUSTAN YOU IDIOT!”
(Wait they're not in the crow's nest they're on deck and Zoe is below deck.)
(Yeah. It all makes sense.)
(No it doesn't
Quoting
She turned to face Houstin.)
(Yes, Zoe is below deck and through one of the grates River heard her. River never left the deck, and Zoe never went above deck.)
"Josie told me to fire if I needed to. I…I just wanted to be, you know, helpful…" Houston trailed off, suddenly surrounded and looking at his feet.
“Well you should use common sense too!” She said, exasperated
(Ohhhhhhh
I thought she was in the crow's nest. Whoops sorry.)
"I am your captain. Not Josiah. You do not take orders from him. You take orders from me. I never gave the order to shoot, so you shouldn't have shot. You were anything but helpful," Cicada wouldn't address him by name. He had lost her respect.
River shook her head
Houston hung his head.
"I'm sorry…should I leave?"
“Just go below deck” river muttered
"Get to your cabin," Cicada almost snarled, "Me and River will figure out what to do with you."
(Im here too!)
“What about Zoe? She knew.”
(YEah! But River is the first mate.)
"You're not my captain." Houston shook his head, not meeting her gaze.
(Aw man. Ok then, tell me when you need me.)
(sorry my computer's slow)

"You're not my captain." Houston shook his head, not meeting her gaze.
"She's my second in command. So you better fucking listen to her."
(This is a hecka tense moment for me. Ack.)
Houston ran to his quarters, slamming the door behind him and locking it shut.
He didn't cry right away, he got out Ivory and Olivia, then sat on his bed and buried his head in his pillow to terribly wet his pillow.
"You're not my captain." Houston shook his head, not meeting her gaze.
"She's my second in command. So you better fucking listen to her."
(And im in command when you're both injured and on your death bed.)
(Lol yeah.)
(Is Josiah gonna get pummeled too since he told Houston what to do? Just wondering)
(No
Quoting
"only when he needed to.")
(Good I want at least one of my characters to be alive when this is over. Lol.)
"Your my first mate," Cicada said walking back to her quarters, "I do have to keep the hierarchy in order. Since no one else seems to listen."
River laughed “of course. What do you want me to do?” She asked following her
