Izzy twitched. It was a dangerous look and some of the men who had seen it on the battlefeild and in training reflexively took cover.
She took a few deep breaths and calmed herself and then left the room without a word to change her clothes. Being around men wet scared her stiff no matter how much she trusted them.
One of the men whom she trained gave a worried look. "I think...she's mad..."
"No nuts," said another. "Let her be, I don't want to get a matching scar."

*Sage bursted out laughing. It was all she could do, the look on Izzy's face was funny as hell. She found another bottle of vodka, and drank it over the period of half an hour. By her last swig, she'd passed out.
She woke the next morning in her bed, still in her clothes feeling refreshed. He nose was red and it itched, and otehr than the fact she remembered nothing of last night she felt fine. She took a nice long shower, to get the liquor off of her, and dressed in fresh clothes. After brushing her ahir and teeth seh went to breakfst. A side note, she'd only been asleep for about four hours.*

Izzy was up and quite awake. She saw Sage come in and said nothing, pouring herself some coffee and handed it to the girl to show no hard feelings, but she was also quite mad.
She wore a longslevved black shirt instead of her typical white tank nd she had old ratty shoes on instead of wandering around barefoot.
"How's Che doing? I want to show her how to cure a hangover quickly."

"She's still zonked out I guess. I dunno how much she drank...nuts I don't know how much I drank. I remember nothing. She'll porbably be up in an hour or so. Thanks"
*Sage accepted teh coffee. It was straight black. She sipped it then put it down. She wasn't hung over, she dind't really need it. But oht he taste of caffien was good, she picked it up agian and tok another drink.*

Izzy snorted. "That's not for the hangover, it's just to wake you up."
Finishing her own, she looked out the doorway of the galley. "It's nice just drifting without aim, but it makes me nervous. Do you ever ge teh feeling that we're sitting ducks?"

*She finished the coffee.*
"Insomnia is too well protected to be a sitting duck, but I get what you're saying. No I don't. If that were the case everyship sailing is a sitting duck on a huge effing pond."

Izzy sighed. "I guess I've never been one to stand still. Bad things happen when you get too comfortable in one place. Sister taught me that. Always stay moving, never linger. Even with friends, make sure everyone keeps moving because moving is what gets things done."

"Well Che will be setting sail soon after she wakes...why am I so hungry all of the sudden?....We'll head out then too."
*She took a bite of a doughnut, swalloing before she went on.*
"Do you remember what happened last night? I would like to know what I did this time."

"We you shoved alcohol down Che's throat like no tomorrow. Then you did some really wet thing which you forced me into." Her eye twitched at that. "Then I don't know because I left."
She began eating her breakfast. "I don't like being wet around men. Bad things can happen no matter if I trust them with my life or not."

*She squinted frowning, trying to remember.*
"Wet thing? What wet thing, what did it invole?"
*She'd finished her doughnut and had moved onto the waffels, strwaberries, whipped topping, along with a two tall cold glasses, one with milke, and one with orange juice.*

"Just never mind. Probably best you forget," Izzy waved a hand in the air and took something rather plain. She wasn't a breakfast person. Everything tasted like cardobard until about ten in the morning.
"I kind of don't want Che to go," she mused more to herself than Sage, "but it's probaby for the best."
Standing up, she looked at the Intelligence through the door and said, "Do you think Che will be all right?"

"Yeah. She'll be okay."
*Had finished the food and downed the orange juice. She was now working on a second plate. this time, of eggs, bacon saussage, hashbrowns, and holindays sauce, plus two or three peices of buttered toast.*
"She's leaving with half the damn crew, though I don't know who. I want my Insomnia crew back, but at the same time, I'd feel bad for sending the new guys off after all we have been through, you know? So I guess is to take volunteers, and then go from there."

Izzy shrugged. "Life is about doing things we don't want to do. What I wouldn't give to get off this bloody ship, ignore the Laymeirids, and live in the westlands forever, but that is never going to happen."
She folded her arms. "Of course, the men should volunteer, it's just..." she searched for the words. "Bah, I don't know what I'm saying, I think it's the lack of a hangover talking." =_=

"True that, but what about you wanting to be rid of them and live in the westlands forever. I thought you wern't ready to be home yet, to be a priuncess?"

"The westlands is a special place in the country just south of us. I want out of Gilden like anything else, and I want to get rid of them, I just sometimes wish it was all over."
Snorting, she said, "I can't even attend a ball it's so suffocating. I wasn't meant to be a princess. I was meant to be a mere commoner. The happiest I've been outside of this ship is in the various villages I was in during my travels.
"Part of me just wants to disappear and never reappear again. Just to become one of the masses and exist only to get by in my own way."
She looked over at Sage. "But maybe it's because I just don't want to be queen. I don't know. Sister says it's beause I'm sixteen."
