The captain finally opened her blasted door only to have the storm that had been sulking along the horizon hit them like a hammer. Then everything started to happen very quickly. The Navigator called out and the captain took to action taking the helm and guiding the ship threw the storm. Astrid glared for a moment at the darkening sky before getting to it moving with sureness and a lack of fear as she helped with the sails. She climbed and pulled fighting against the driving wind and raging rain. Lightening tore threw the sky and Astrid heard a scream  cut off quickly by thunder so deep it made her bones vibrate and she turned her head in time to see a man illuminated quickly by a flash of lightning tumble over the side.<br/><br/>No need to save him passed threw her, it was just another casualty to count, a damage the storm caused. But then in fractured moments caused by the lightening Astrid watch the navigator throw a rope and then the rope going taunt as the man managed to grab it and come back aboard. The storm eased by degrees, the sails got placed and the captain guided them out of the worst intensity of it.<br/><br/>The surge of adrenaline Astrid always experienced after a storm rushed threw her and a smile true and pure crossed her face for a moment before slipping away living only in the warm glow of life that lived just behind her breast. The captain was being relieved of her duty at the wheel and Astrid who'd caught a glimpse of the interior of the captains quarters knew she'd be in a bit of a hurry to return to it's entertainments. But Astrid had no intention of letting her. Astrid had seen Henrik intimidate Bells and knew there were other who were on the ship for the first time. No one yet knew what they were to do and if she expected her first mate to handle it all, he'd done a piss poor job.<br/><br/>It all had gone on far enough. One thing Astrid disliked above all else was a disorganized ship and it seemed Bloods was as disorganized as they come. Astrid set her feet wide apart for balance and waited for her dear captain just in front of her door arm crossed her chest pressing her chest forward though she didn't seem to notice. She didn't seem to notice how she looked period. She was soaked to the skin, the white of her top turned sheer and her pants clinging to her like a second skin. Her hair was wild around her, half dry half wet curling wildly around her shoulders and down her back. Eye bright with expectation she wore a slight smirk just waiting.
