<span style="font-style: italic">Miro watched the man closely as he walked toward him. Smiling a bit and merely nodded his head. He did like it. He tilted his head then remembered there was a middle deck. He followed him to the ladder then waited at the bottom as Tes climbed up it. Following after him all the way to the middle deck. He easily climbed up the ladder. He wasn't as fast as Rat but he was a good climber. He was soon at the mid deck and stepped off the ladder and onto the mid deck. Swaying a moment as he adjusted back to the lesser amount of swaying with the ship. He smiled once he was here. Looking around as the walked. Walking over to looked at the black cannons. The light shining down on him as he stood sideways. He studied the cannon but didn't touch it. The lights hitting his face and making it seem to have a soft glow. While the light hit his hair making it shimmer and shine like a yellow sea in the morning sunlight. He was trying to puzzle out these cannons. They looked weird and he couldn't figure out why.</span><br/><br/>Kona was now puzzling over his faint attraction towards Ikol. He processed it and came to the conclusion he was fascinated by the skills that Ikol possessed. It made perfect sense that it was so. He fell into thought. Remember the day he met Miro. His young friend had been no bigger than a one year old even though he had been three at the time. All he could speak was everything but English. He had taught him English. Miro had been butt naked and covered in bruises when he found him on the beach. It was then they became friends. He took Miro home and got him clothes. That very day he promised his new friend he would protect him always. Snapping from his thoughts as she spoke with a sigh. Nodding his head. "I'll help you with anything I can." He said. Watching her as she sorted and put away their freshly washed dishes. Saying nothing else. He hoped that she even though he figured she was a he...would teach him skills so he could help out on the ship.
