[font=trebuchet ms]Night watches would never get any easier, but this was the bed Rin had made- now she would lie in it.
Sitting on the dock, feeling the chilly air seep into her bones, Rin curled her tail around her paws and stared out at the horizon. Perhaps she should have brought a blanket, or a jacket, or some other insulating fabric outside with her. Still, at least the cold would keep her awake.
Making a point not to look at the stars, she instead peered into the water, searching for any signs of movement. Occasionally a shape would flit by beneath the waves, and she would take an arrow out in preparation- only to realize it was just a regular fish, or a patch of seaweed. Even then, a false positive was less dangerous than a false negative.
Setting her jaw, Rin tugged at her scarf with one paw. Realistically, the odds of the Captain attacking now, when the Elysites were still recovering from the Ferryman's attack, were higher than she would have liked. Still, that was why she was here. If he chose tonight for a sneak attack, the alarm would be raised and he would be in for a bloody battle... especially since Eirny was still here if she recalled correctly, and the salt water would conduct electricity really well. The thought of the Captain being electrocuted in one shot was amusing, she had to admit.
Rin couldn't count on such a possibility, though. At any moment, everything could fall apart again.
With a sigh through gritted teeth, she focused her gaze on the horizon once more and tried not to think about it.
