Welcome to Gaia! ::

Prompt:
Tension has been building among your crew and you fear a mutiny. You overhear whispers of a plot to maroon you by three well respected fighters. What do you do?

He thumbed the hilt of his sword absently from where he stood at the prow, feeling over the particular 'fingerprint' of the hilt that set it appart, by touch, from other blades he'd handled. It was actually quite a beautiful night, all things considered, even with the faint lights from the few deck lights marring the perfect darkness.
How absoloutely disgustingly inferior humans could be. Though even with this unpleasentry it was almost easy to simply relax and forget what had been going on earlier this morning. Normaly he spent as much of the day out of the sun as possible, finding it far too hard on the eyes, but tensions had kept him more up and about than many had been aware. He hadn't been ignorant of the mutterings, the grumblings and thoughts that no -elf- should be captain. Stupid, muleish round eared things. As though he couldn't hear their coarse grunting.
The wind picked up again, bringing the mix of smells associated with the ship to his nose, and an grim smile to his face. A sliver of white teeth against the black of his face, like the moon in the sky.
Ocean water, gunpowder, alchohol, sweat......and blood. The smell hung almost so heavily as to be a taste, like placing a sliver of raw meat on your tounge and savoring the taste.
Something he was almost tempted to do, just for the image of it, though he rather prefered to keep things as they were. There was a theatrical simplicity to it that would unveil itself ideally as the watch changed.
Himself standing in the darkness, and three strong men, who had never had the chance awake from their drugged sleep, hanging from the boom from their own daggers jammed so deeply into their open mouths that they sunk into the wood.

It really was an incredibly lovely night.

((ok it leaves a lot to the imagination, but somehow this seemed terribly Jhannura.))
