Tinsley accepted the blanket with a small smile, "The wind's not so bad once you're used to it," she shrugged.

[deepwallow]

Travis nodded as he put another blanket around his own shoulders. "True, true. But I'd rather be warm right now." He said with a grin

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Tinsley nodded, pulling the blanket tight around herself, "Yes, so would I."

[deepwallow]

Travis laughed and looked out over the seas. "Some nights it's warm enough, but sadly, not tonight. Otherwise I just sit here, drink, and watch for ships or land happily." He said with a shrug.

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Tinsley nodded and cuddled the blanket around her shoulders, "Yes, I like doing that kind of thing too."

[deepwallow]

"Which shift you get?'" He asked, looking out over the sea and leaning back

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

"Morning shift," Tinsley replied with a yawn.

[deepwallow]

Travis laughed. "I'm glad I get this one! Morning shift just seems too hectic for me. Too many people asking me if there's land or if there's ships or blah blah blah. It can get repetitive." Travis said with a chuckle

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Tinsley shrugged, "I can't really change what shift in ordered, so I won't complain."

[deepwallow]

"Thats a good attitude. I admire it." He said with a grin

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Tinsley looked away, slightly embarrassed to have someone admire something about her, "Thanks."

[deepwallow]

"Hey, I give credit where credit is due." Travis said with a shrug, looking out over the waters again. "You ever miss home?"

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

Tinsley nodded, "Yeah, all the time."

[deepwallow]

"The. Why not visit it? I'm sure he cap'n wouldn't mind if you did." Travis suggested

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

She smiled sadly, "Travis, my family is all dead. I can't visit them."

[deepwallow]

Travis blinked and looked at her. "Oh...I...I'm sorry, I didn't mean to...bring up bad memories..." He apologized, looking away as if ashamed of himself for bringing the topic up

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

"Don't worry," She assured him quickly, "It doesn't really bother me."

[deepwallow]

"Nah. I shouldn't have brought it up. But thanks. I can relate, sort of." He said with a shrug, leaning back and looking out again

[нαℓƒ~мσση]

"How so?- If you don't mind me asking, that is," The girl regarded her newfound friend with cautious curiosity.

[deepwallow]

Travis was quiet for a while. "I never met my parents really. My mother died soon after my birth and eventually my dad kicked out me and my older brother. My brother was what kept me going, literally. I would've iced without him back then." Travis said
