Such Is Your Fate...

The distant cry of seagulls filled the sniper’s ears, drawing him back to reality. Without realizing it, he had zoned out, caught up in his own thoughts once again. A rather dangerous habit of his, considering how infamous he and his crew were. But no matter. Fate would decide what became of him, something that gave the man a sense of peace to the world.

Still, he realized how very bored he was at the moment. It had only been an hour or so since their ship had docked on the island; a fairly sized town that the captain has successfully gained major control over recently. Auger considered his options. Perhaps he could explore the town a bit more, though he couldn’t imagine it being much fun. Maybe he could use his Senriku and terrorize some of the townsfolk. He decided against it though, as it would be a waste of resources.

As he was thinking to himself, he caught a glance of something pink in his peripheral. From where he sat on the upper deck, the woman seemingly didn’t notice him.

Oh, this would do nicely.

The sniper’s head perked up a bit at the command. It was rare for the captain to sound so serious, and everyone on the crew knew to take this tone as the law.

His face quickly turned a light red as he averted his eyes, raising a hand to feign adjusting his glasses in order to hide his face.

Valentine’s Day Question Meme!

😈: Expecting to get laid or spend a night alone?

“Ignoring the absolute power of fate simply because it doesn’t play into your every whim and wish is quite childish. Asking for my opinions on such a thing is meaningless really because regardless of what I believed to be right or wrong, it makes no difference whatsoever in the grand scheme.

🎆: Are you going to send a Valentine to anyone? Secretly or out in the open?

“There are… certain people, that I tend to spend most of my time with. I would imagine I will also be spending that day with them as well. If it does happen to become something a bit more… ahem, romantic, then I would prefer to keep that between myself and my partner.”

Valentine’s Day Question Meme!

🌺: What’s your favorite flower? How do you feel about roses?

“While I haven’t discussed it much, I do have a bit of an affinity for flowers myself. Picking a singular favorite is a bit difficult, however, I have a personal preference towards Heliotropes. As for roses, while I don’t personally hold anything against them, they can be a bit cliche. Though I suppose that does make them rather excellent symbols.”

💘: How do you feel about Valentine’s Day?

“Valentine’s Day is nothing but an overly marketed idea to sell to young couples that require exhaustive performative romance in order to make their feelings for one another feel validated. If there’s someone you truly care about and feel as though is your soul mate, then you should feel that sense of affection on any given day.”

💝: Do you have a valentine? Crush? Someone you like?

“… The phrasing of this question is a bit vague… but I suppose I would have at least one or two people that may fit into that category.”

“… The relationship I have with my captain is a bit more nuanced than a Thing.” The sniper says, venom practically dripping as he hisses out the last word.

“And I’m no fool. The captain is a man of excess. He enjoys hundreds of different foods and wines and yes, women. But it doesn’t matter. They’re nothing but accessories. Trinkets to be worn for a night, maybe two and then discarded for whatever catches his eye next. If you believe I would feel even remotely threatened by some loose whores that he’ll have forgotten the names of by the time they’ve left his quarters, you have truly underestimated my mental capacity.
