A teal haired person fluttered about on the deck of a ship that had been chartered for their client. Glasses pushed back their bangs from flopping into their face. Blaise took another look at their clipboard, holding down the pages that demanded to flutter in the wind with their thumb. They squinted, trying to read the text on the page without their glasses.
“Ah! Right, right…”
Blaise turned on their heel to approach a woman who had been idling on deck whilst the sailors scurried to and fro across the deck. They cleared their throat and pulled down their glasses to ensure that they were talking to the right person.
“Excuse me, Miss Cheri, correct? This way please!”
Gesturing for the woman to follow, Blaise turned on their heel and briskly walked over to the captain’s quarters. The captain of the ship was not currently quartered there in fact. It was their star that had been quartered there. Blaise took a deep breath, straightening their clothes and slicking back their hair. They turned and looked back to Cheri who had presumably followed.
“Ah, alright, a few things before you meet with Miss Valois. Some ground rules, if you will. Please refrain from being within close proximity - say five feet - of Miss Valois unless her safety would otherwise be in jeopardy. Do NOT touch Miss Valois under any circumstances with the singular exception of her life being in danger.”
Blaise glanced back at their clipboard thoughtfully, trying to wrack their brain. They didn’t think that they missed anything. So, they knocked on the door lightly.
“We’ll be arriving at our destination within the hour. Please take this time to become acquainted.”
“Enter,” came the soft angelic voice from the person inside.
Blaise opened the door, revealing the rather lavishly decorated interior of the captain’s quarters. Most of the décor was stark white and didn’t match the aesthetic of the rest of the ship at all. It had been redecorated for the express purpose of its inhabitant who sat idly at a vanity, examining her appearance in the mirror. Her clothes were her black, which contrasted with the white interior. Her short hair was snow white with a black headband running through it. Despite the obvious quality of the clothes she wore, the outfit was relatively simple and lacked excessive flair. Odette looked over to her two guests, her sharp cyan eyes piercing them both, and waved them in.
Blaise did not accept the invitation, recoiling out of the doorframe, but they nodded to Cheri to proceed. They had about a hundred more things to do before they arrived in port and only an hour to do them in.
