“Hey, you’re a little too close.”

“How else are you going to protect me from The Wild Hunt?”

“…Aren’t you a Harbinger?”

✿ lost at sea with you // characters archive ⊹ ࣪ ˖

thráin — a lonely lighthouse keeper, weathered by waves and cool gray gloom. his soul stitched tight after his family got lost at sea, a lone seal bringing him as a little boy back to the shore. growing into a timid man — frozen in place, he guides ships back to safety with his warm light.

femi — a selkie, born of foam and kelp, washed ashore with storm in her soul. no place to call a home, no voice to call a friend. yet she found both in scarred hands, that hold her gentler and tighter than any coat or salty wave ever could.

“hey red, wait up!”

kendall inhales sharply when the strange term of endearment she’s become perhaps too familiar with pierces through the atmospheric chatter of the busy evening sidewalk. turning her head to look over her shoulder, she spots the only man who’d ever be bold enough to act this way headed to meet her.

dante.

“are you talking to me?” she shouts, raising a brow.

he smirks and holds his arms out, attempting to keep his practiced aloofness intact despite just how pretty she is when she looks at him like that.

“of course i am, you see any other cute girls with red hair around here?”

he saunters in her direction, kendall’s steps slowing to give him a leg up in his attempt to catch up with her. upon arrival at her side, dante closes the space between them, shoulders bumping together as they stand side by side.

she rolls her eyes in mock annoyance, turning and boldly reaching for the amulet around his neck.

“this is red,” she argues, pulling the heavy stone away from his exposed chest and gazing into its reflective surface. a slight flush blooms across his exposed chest in the wake of her touch.

“and to be honest, it seems like you’re turning a little red yourself, dante.”

he looks down at her, cool guy facade further slipping.

“you don’t know what you’re talking about.”

it’s a weak attempt to defend himself and elicits a giggle from the woman next to him who shrugs flirtatiously.

“i have to disagree with you there, red...” she giggles, trailing off, dropping the necklace back against his scarlet-tinged defined chest.
