the most red fish mingle that ever was

Who: Crew of the Red Fish and visiting friends.
Broadcast: Possibly? Possibly not?
Action: Aboard the lovely Red Fish.
When: General late March/Early April catch all!

[This week the stalwart passengers on the SS Redfish loose one of their own! The dashing "tailor" is no where to be found, but in his place a mysterious bearded stranger has appeared? What could possibly happen??

Find out on today's episode of... DRIFT FLEET - RED FISH EDITION]

[he doesn't return the gesture, but he nods. if she's not on the ship logs and not hanging around the ship... Hange has either pulled a fantastic disappearing trick, or she's disappeared. just like Nunnally did before.

he wasn't saying anything before, but something about him changes and now he seems... quiet and withdrawn, just with the way he's holding himself. he sets his jaw while he thinks.]

[he can feel himself getting angry. it's not at Nunnally's fault. it's not Hange's fault either, but Nunnally says holds a heavy truth in it--who will be their captain? he'd liked Hange. he could put up with this whole stupid game so long as she was there to keep them all under control. but where was she now? why did she leave them?

why would they take her? were they performing too well, too predictably? who will it be next? Coil? Nunnally, again? are they going to just keep pushing and pulling like this forever?

he punches the wall. it's really sudden, just a snarl and a sudden bang that reverberates down the hall. it rattles up his arm and into his shoulder, he can feel it. it's not--]


It's not fair.

[it did hurt, but he doesn't fight her. he flinches a little at her touch, but it's not from pain. his knuckles are already turning red.

but the tension eases out of his fingers. he's still frustrated, but it's simmering under the surface. he's got it under control, for now. he doesn't want to hurt Nunnally, when her touch is so kind and she sounds so... she sounds the way that he can't put into words.

he wouldn't have been able to keep the snarling beast locked up in his chest if she was not so honest and soft with him, and it reminds him a little of... her, of course. so despite the uncertainty of his situation, one thing is clear to him:]


I won't leave.

[of course he'd leave. were he given the choice, he'd go back to his master in a second. but he'd take Nunnally with him somehow, he's sure of it. he doesn't want to leave her behind, is what he's trying to say. not her and not this ship.

he's grown to like being here far more than he'd admit, after all.

he squeezes her hand back, gently, and nods in agreement.]

[his hand drifts back to its spot. he flexes his fingers a little. now they're starting to hurt. now he maybe regrets punching a metal wall.

trying to imagine any other members of their crew as captain... makes him set his jaw again, since he doesn't trust the new people and doesn't fully believe that any of the old crew would be a good fit.

...especially Coil. he'd be the literal worst captain.

he makes a noise in agreement and just hopes that it isn't him who gets picked.]

[he's not sure about that, either. especially if it's someone new. but...

he looks down at his knuckles. they're not that bad (he thinks), but... a momentary distraction would be nice, so he nods a little and heads in the direction of the lab.

they can play doctor for a second. it wouldn't hurt anyone.]
