So cold... All the same, all about me. The wit, the wisdom. Here I stand, Here I live... The truth of a revelation, frozen in fear. Slowly dying...
Tessa laughed and dropped her head onto the front of Jack's shoulder. "Jack, that wasn't what I meant," she said, still laughing slightly, "Don't you ever sleep? I realize it wouldn't make much sense for you to sleep at night, but still at all?" She lifted her head slightly in curiosity. Inwardly she found it hard to believe that they had only known each other for a couple weeks and yet still knew as much about each other - or at least their insecurities - as they had. "Doesn't it ever bother you, normally being so very wide awake? I don't think I could even imagine that."

"You were the one telling me to rest, Jack!" Tessa cried, "Don't you get tired of contradictions?" She laughed again and leaned over to Jack. She wrapped her arms around him and dropped her head on his shoulder. "I guess I shouldn't complain though, should I?"

"Contradictions," Jack said waving his hand with the glass, wine sloshing over the side. "Oh dear..." He said, seemingly concerned with the drop of wine on the ground. He seemed troubled by it for a moment before snapping back to reality. "Oh, no, you shouldn't. Complaining is not good," Jack said with a grin. "But, I daresay we will be in need of making port soon. According to Mr. Porter, there is very little rum left. Can you believe that...that b*****d's ship carried not a single drop of rum? Wine is good and all but..." Jack trailed off for a moment before chuckling slightly. "Perhaps at port we can buy a camel. I....cannot believe I am saying this, but I miss William. Don't you?" Jack asked, looking down. "He did carry us to some good purpose yes?" He traced circles on Tessa's waist with his finger as memories of a few caves he decided he liked surfaced, and he looked down at Tessa with a teasing grin.

Tessa giggled and brought a hand down to Jack's wrist, holding it down for a moment as she reached up to give a light kiss at his jaw. "You need your rest, Jack," she said softly, "and whether you need a camel or not, I need you. I'd call that a fair exchange, wouldn't you?" She blinked once as her skin grew slightly colder, and for a moment she frowned. "That's... that's just cruel." she whimpered, "Why would my nature make it so cold now?"

"I'm fine," Tessa said, "it just seems like a lot of cold seems to happen when I'm feeling well... not cold." She smiled and pulled herself closer to him, her soft breathing made slightly harsher by the cold she felt yet was not truly present outside of herself. "I suppose my goddess' nature doesn't really agree with me warming up to a man anymore. A little sad, really."

"What?" Tessa sounded mildly perplexed, "I told you already I can handle whatever might happen, so long as there's enough of me left to relive off of. Besides, I'm not hurt, just a little cold." She clung to him tighter still, nearly resting her head against his own for a moment. "Something I'm fairly certain you can help with. Don't be afraid Jack, I've done it before."

Jack lifted his head to hers and looked her in the eyes, looking like he was about to say something important, before he smiled and ran a hand down her back, landing at the small of her back while he brought his lips to hers cautiously. "But I don't want to hurt you," He breathed, lips mere centimeters from hers before closing the gap, slowly breaking away ever so slightly, eyes searching hers.
Mr. Porter froze in the doorway as he opened the door and Jack sat up quickly, shooting a glare at him. "Ah...we'll be in port before nightfall, Captain...Sir," Mr. Porter retreated with a red face, closing the door, while Jack chuckled lightly, returning his attention to Tessa.

"You what?!" Erathis shouted at the vendor before him. "You heard me, I need a brick of Devil Iron to even think about forging something as significant as to match the weapon you're carrying and I'm out of stock!" The young man sighed and turned away, nearly storming out of the shop despite the several strange glances shot his way. He paused for a moment though. "Where can I find some, then? Perhaps if we were to barter something..." "Tessalona. Serendale, specifically." "The caverns?" The vendor nodded stiffly, "And you'd be a fool to go alone, you have to know that." Erathis turned away with a small smile. "I can be a fool if I want to be. At least I'm a knowledgeable one. Seems like all I need is a boat."
Order Of Chaos: You know how you were talking about how we never use these? Think I'm going to do a horizontal resemblance though, this is a bit big. (And yes, this is me saying let's get Jack to port already)

Jack's skilled hands steered the Duchess into the pirate port of Treicana and the anchor was dropped as soon as he gave the order. He soon turned to Tessa with a smile, pressing his lips to her cheek before whispering in her ear, "I'm going to the tavern, if you care to join me, feel free," He then turned away and walked down the gangplank, tossing the dock keeper two silver pieces. He headed off through the bustling port, eyes on the mountains in the middle of the island for a while, then the marketplace, trying to keep them away from the people. He would be too tempted. He could only hope for a vampire barkeep.

Erathis left the shop, but he watched carefully for several minutes as the Duchess came into port. It would afford him time enough to rest as needed, if he could be patient with a ship just arriving and perhaps to barter passage. With a slight shrug and the assumption he had nothing to lose he walked up to Jack and addressed him with a slight acknowledging nod. "That ship that just came in," he indicated the Duchess, "I don't suppose you know the captain of it, do you?"
