It seemed like this first chapter of their new careers of sea-reaving adventure was off to a more climactic start than Meera had initially expected, but she wasn't about to complain! Whilst she'd love to take a few more moments to get a bit more intimately acquainted with Vi's deliciously unobscured curves, that would obviously have to wait until they were out at sea, because it seemed like the ship they were staring at was not, in fact, Rovana's ship...yet, at least. She wasn't sure why she was surprised - Rovana hadn't shown up to the tavern with a bucketload of sailors and a fuckton of coin, after all - and there was no honor amongst thieves when it came to pirates. If two pirate crews came across each other out on the ocean, so she'd heard, it was just as likely that they would open fire on each other for their swag as it was that they'd sit down and gamble it away to each other instead. She wasn't particularly concerned with killing or jacking from the louts in the tavern, either; they were pirates. They stole and killed, so if people did the same to them, well, turnabout was fair play and all. Besides, Rovana had hired her on as her crew. Those other assholes hadn't.<br/><br/>So really, she wasn't under any obligation to give a shit about anybody but herself at that moment in time, and at that moment in time, what she wanted lay with Rovana! She leaped into action pretty much as soon as she was told to, not wasting any time pretty much as soon as she saw the hilt of the blade come down on the scurvy dogs skull. It was obvious immediately that they were performing an act of piracy, and she felt a little silly for her previous assumption that this guy worked for Rovana. Would any crewmate talk to their Captain like that? Unlikely, in hindsight!<strong>"Aye, Cap'n, c'nsider it done!"</strong>She bellowed as the pirate hit the water, already halfway up the gangplank, hurtling over to the side of the ship. She paused, bracing herself on the deck, flexing her arms a little in preparation. She was a big lass - farming didn't tend to leave much room for flab or weakness! - but she'd never lifted anything quite like an anchor chain. It was supposed to keep an entire ship in place, after all, and from what she gathered, several people were normally assigned to reel it in. And yet...here she was, on her lonesome. Still, looking up at Rovana as her eyes scoured the deck, flicking back to the tavern idly, she felt a swell of...confidence.<br/><br/>She could do this! Her first act of piracy! She was not about to let her new Captain down, damnit, and after her little show of confidence, she had a bluster to back up in front of her new crewmates! She rolled her shoulders, set her stance wide, then reached down to grip the chain in two hands. She lifted it up high, threw the edge of her shoulder, then turned on the spot and began to move across the deck, heaving the chain after her. When she got to about halfway, she turned around again, this time pulling it hand over hand, using the leverage of the edge of the ship to make it somewhat easier on her. Her muscles bulged under the strain...and she could only hope that she was making an impressive showing of it! If they wanted to get out of dodge quickly, they needed the anchor up in a timely fashion. Of course, she wouldn't complain if at least<em>one</em>pirate got on board. She was fairly certain that the odds were good that he'd be one of the pirates who had laughed at the idea of her joining a crew the previous night, and if she could kill just<em>one</em>of those smarmy assholes...it would be worth it. But for now...she had a job to do, damnit, and a captain to impress! Her heart thrummed at the idea. This was it. No going back. She was a pirate now. The fact was...intoxicating. Today, this "Draco." Tomorrow...Fritlingeravolt.<br/><br/><hr/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Strength Check</div><div class="spoiler_body">Meera Rolled Strength: 1d20a6 Result: 21 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=129426)</div></div>
