Okay. Rival pirates? You win this one.

It was a chase between the two, a debacle of gunpowder and clashing swords, and it was one that was actually halfway decent, not a single shred of monotony. And if renowned pirate Marina Victoria wasn't fighting back two lungs full of ocean water and a mouthful of blood? She's sure she would have thought to thank them.

But surely, this was no time for amusement, because objectively speaking? She was drowning. She needed to catch her breath, and fast-- though the torrential motion of the water was not sympathetic to her plights.

Thrashing was usually a halfway decent way to surface, though being weighed down by a hell of a lot of injuries made that tactic hard pressed to work when she needed it to. Great. Now she was going to go down fighting. At least it was a fitting end for one hell of a skirmish.

[This is a really silly dream.

It has to be a dream, or so Nepeta convinces herself. Her room in the castle, once lined with walls covered in ~~blood~~ paintings and drawings and charts of shipping, now resembles something of a jungle. She's sitting up on a bed of spotbeast fur that's oh so warm and also incredibly comfortable. Looking up reveals dangling vines and--are those featherbeast chirps she's hearing?

This is very much a dream. What only confirms this is the fact that she's not alone in the bed. Lying beside her is Vriska, sound asleep and oblivious to the sudden jungle they've found themselves in. She looks so peaceful, and almost--almost--innocent... Nepeta isn't sure she has the heart to wake her up. Even if this is just a dream. Which is odd, because she's never had a dream in which someone was asleep during it.

But it's a pretty boring dream without someone to interact with, so she shakes Vriska's shoulder to wake her from her slumber. Here's hoping that dream!Vriska is a lot nicer about being abruptly woken than the real Vriska.]

Hey, hey Vwiskers. Wake up!

[It has been a very, very long day.

Between her full-time job as a mother and her full-time job as a lawyer, there's little time at the end of the day that Alicia is able to dedicate to herself. When there is time, she prefers to spend it with a glass of wine and a TV at low volume.

Tonight, however, she isn't quite ready to retreat to the comfort of her sofa.

She sits at the bar with a glass in front of her. It's only water for now; she'll order a proper drink once she has some company with her.

Until she's joined, she sits with her phone in her hands, typing away at the small keyboard. Normally she doesn't see the merit in the online forums and networks her kids enjoy, and if they knew that's what she was doing right now they would likely laugh and ask to be "buddies" or however social media connections are called. Admittedly, it's actually a little cathartic, even if she refuses to attach her real name to her alias.]

Looking for book or movie recommendations for quiet evening relaxation.

(ooc: feel free to join her at the bar or talk via random nameless internet social networking thing, how does i do musebox posts)

Once upon a time, there was Ana and also Lykos.

One day, Ana walked up to Lykos and was like, "Hey. Want a sandwich?"

Lykos looked at Ana with a confused expression and was like, "Uh, what kind of sandwich?"

Ana said, "A KNUCKLE sandwich!" and then she punched Lykos in the FACE.

The end!
