Jack------------------------------------------ ------------------- Cortez
Of Blood and Gold I know, of the freedom of a ship, and only the wind holding you back.
"It isn't...the same camel," Jack said, looking at the equally panicked William the second before turning back to Cassandra. "Oh you know, getting married, dueling demons, finding long lost family, the same old same old," He said with a chuckle. His mother had finally been roused, although by the way she was sitting against the railing, it was safe to assume she was still weak. Adeska was next to her, looking out between the railing boards.
This is what I loved...And lost. [OutrageousObliviousCats: ---]

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...
"Not the same camel?" "Dueling Demons?" "Lost Family?" The questions came all at once, if from each their difference sources, and Tessa had to forcibly hold herself from laughing at the timing involved. Still she lowered her head with a slight smile. "Yes, we've been fairly busy," she said quietly, "and it's been... interesting, believe me." "So you found your mother after all?" Vanessa asked from off to the side. Tessa simply nodded. "I knew you could do it. I'm glad you managed it Tessa." "Seems like there's a lot to tell," Ferathi said after finally getting Gaelitae to settle down, "perhaps over dinner?"

After a moment Ferathi managed to loosely tie the pegasus to the railing and duck out from under its wing as she stepped down to give Tessa a hug. "Sorry I'm late," she said simply, "it's a lot harder to get things out of the way when everyone rushes away at the first chance." Tessa dropped her face into her hand and picked herself away from Jack a little with a slight gaze over her comrades. "I don't think this is the time to be hurling accusations at each other, please? Besides, Jack's been through a little more than he's needed to lately, there's no point in compounding it." She sighed for a brief moment, "So anyway, I figured you should probably know he and I are going to be occupied for the first full day or two - and I doubt the locals are liable to be too friendly... except maybe to Cassandra." She added under her breath. "Ai, what's with that!" Tessa giggled lightly and took a step away from Cassandra. "Little humor is all. Besides, I doubt anyone too bold would last long razed to the ground."

>-,.-.-.,.-.__Vanessa Halderi__.-.,.-.-.,-<
What happens... when an unstoppable force... collides with the immovable? Here I stand, Ready for either. The clash of one to another. Slowly crumbling away...
"Half...?" Vanessa's face paled slightly, and in her shame she turned away and took a step from them. "I hate to ask, but..."
Ferathi was at her side in a moment, a comforting hand across her shoulders. "Vanessa, are you alright?" Tessa looked back to Jack for a few moments and shook her head with eyes closed. "Vanessa's always been close to her family," she explained, "it's hard for her to take half-siblings very well. I think she'll understand once she hears from Adeska though... least I hope so."

"I... think it may be best if I stayed behind with them Jack." Tessa said softly, "I don't want to leave you to things alone, but I think for everyone's well-being I should be around to explain things in case of the worst..." She was clearly saddened by her apparent choice of action - or inaction as it were - but all the same it was for the best in her view. "I'm sorry, Jack. I really wanted to go, too."

<.,.-'-''-.,_Cassandra Nayime_,.-''-'-.,.>
So warm... The flares of a burning passion. The focus, the power. Here I stand, Here I dream... The faith of an untold force of magic. Slowly drowning...
"Tessa." Cassandra's voice rose slightly as she stepped forward and dropped a firm hand on Tessa's shoulder with a slightly rough stare. "Go with the man. Vanessa will be alright, I'm sure. You've got things to do, your man to be with. You think Ferathi and I can't keep things intact here?"
Tessa turned after a second and looked up to Cassandra in disbelief. "But, why?" "Never mind why for now. If worse comes to worst we can go early. I doubt it'll come to that though, so trust us, will you?" "A...alright..." Tessa lowered her head somberly for a moment before picking up her spirit again and coming out to where Jack and Mr. Porter had been. "Don't count me out of this one Jack. Not yet; I'm coming."

Tessa raised an eyebrow in noticing the conversation she had interrupted, but managed to restrain a laugh upon noticing the topic. Still Jack's resulting remark stung her somewhat, and a number of questions rose in her mind regarding the matter. "Jack, what's our business here anyway?" She asked timidly.

Tessa raised an eyebrow in curiosity for a moment before dismissing the notion of ulterior motives for the time being. She would have to ask later. "Fair enough," she said with a shrug, "so what's the plan in the meantime?"
