Personality

Giovanni, or Gio for short, is a loud, confident man who always manages to get what he wants in some way or another. He is very determined, and stubborn, and can be quite unpleasant to be around. Despite this, he is cheerful, humorous, and intelligent, and he always treats his crew right, as he feels it's his duty as a captain, and a human being. He manages to get himself in sticky situations quite easily, and panics when he can't get out of them.

Personality: Raven can be the sweetest and kindest soul but she also has a mean and daring side to her, one that shouldn't be crossed. She is intelligent and is hard to trick a lot.
 
Tonight was the night that it was all supposed to happen, the night that Gio and his crew had been preparing for, revenge. It had been on a similar night when one of the kings men had captured Giovanni's sister, Genevieve. For months they had hoped that she would be alive, but they had given up hope, and now, now was the time for revenge. He fumbled with the buttons to stop the engine, pushing hair out of his eyes after each sudden movement, and when the ship came to a slow stop, he breathed out a sigh. Had they really thought of everything? His boots sounded heavily on the wooden steps leading from the engines to the main deck, and he called for his crew to gather around him. Their faces were cheerful and they were fresh from a day of rest, but Giovanni frowned, his hands on his hips.


"Ladies and gentlemen!" He calls, using one hand to open his pocket watch and check the time, they were not late. "Tonight is the night we have been waiting for! Tonight, is the night for revenge!" He yells, loud enough to be heard, "So wipe those grins off your butt ugly faces and get to work!" They all cheered back at him, some of them going downstairs onto lower decks and some getting ready to fight. He yelled orders at his first mate, telling him to take over the engines. One of his crew threw him his gun, and he took it gladly, catching it easily by the handle as though he'd been thrown a child's toy. The engines roared back into life as they sailed towards the castle. They knew exactly which tower to be near, and he knew exactly which room the princess would be in.


He could feel the wind in his hair, and the excitement and adrenaline coursing through his body. This that they had been preparing for for so long, this revenge, it made him feel as though Genevieve was still with him, proud of him. He was sure that his family would be proud of the actions he was taking, after all, they were pirates too.

Raven looked at her father, bowing her head. They'd just had a long conversation about her duties and now she was ready for her bed. She looked upon her father and smiles, a brief sigh leaving her full black lips, "Father, if I may, I would like to retire to my room. All this talk of the future and wearing me out and though I'd love to talk more, I must rest." She says sweetly, politeness and respect dripping off her every word.


She curtseys, spinning on her heels and heading her the door, her hair swaying lightly. She has to her room in the opposite tower, her heals made light banging sounds as she walks, her chin raises, her back straight, shoulders back, walking like she'd been taught to for many years.


When entering her room, she smiles staring into the clear mirror, it's bronze frame shining and she instantly knew her maid had cleaned it. She smiles and sits on her bed relaxing, she couldn't relax fully, the tight corset keeping her back straight. She hadn't even looked in the direction of her unlocked window, instead she focuses on her ceiling, her tiara still neatly on her head.
 
The ship sails slowly towards the tower, and as they neared it, they became hushed. Concealed by the darkness of the night, those upon The Dreaming Raider were like shadows, and all Giovanni could hear was his heartbeat as they neared the window. When they did, one of his men shot the grappling hook that went in through the window and hooked to the ledge of it, pulling them in closer. The sails were still up, so as to get away much faster when they had her. When they had enough room to spring into the room, a man laid down a wooden plank as a walkway, and Giovanni didn't hesitate to spring into her bedroom followed by two others, his first mate who was no longer manning the engines, and his quartermaster.


He had to be quick, and silent, like trained assassins, but unfortunately that was easier said than done. His first mate may be handy, yes, but quiet he was not. As he sprung through the window he made a whole manner of noise, tripping and falling clumsily, making a clatter as he landed due to the metal on his boots and shoulders. Giovanni and the quartermaster grimaced, their great surprise plan had failed, and now they were staring face to face with the princess herself. The quartermaster ran to the bedroom door and shut it, blocking it with his sword raised high, and Gio raised his gun high and aimed it at the princesses heart, "If you scream I will shoot you, if you run he will stab you," he warns her. He had not been quite so prepared for his first mate to be such an idiot.
 
Raven had been lying peacefully on the bed when she had heard the noise at her window, she stands her face shocked. She is frozen looking at the man in front of her and then glancing at the man by the door. She listens to him and doesn't scream, "But Sir, what makes you think I'm scared." She says, "I'm clearly no use to you dead." She adds stepping forward and then chuckling to herself.


She looks at him, "I assume that you are Captain Giovanni," she says with a mocking curtesy, "and what a great pleasure it is to meet you." She says quietly looking at him. She brings a hand though her hair and looks at him, "Now, please I don't think you should take me, I'm horrid company." She says stepping again, she stares at her door and then attempts to run at the man.
 
Gio listens to her, she was right, she was no use to them dead, but that didn't mean they couldn't hurt her a little. "You're correct, I am Captain Giovanni of the Dreaming Raider, and you are Princess Raven Vicario," he says calmly, the gun still aimed at her heart, "S' A pleasure to meet you." His accent was foreign, from another world, but his words sounded like a melody.


When she runs for the door, Gio signals for the quartermaster to cut her wherever he would like, and he does, raising his sword and leaving a cut on her arm that, no, wouldn't be enough to kill her, but may shock her for the moment. Gio walks up behind her, the now recovered first mate handed him a black sack that could be used to blindfold her. Gio put the sack over her head and pulled her hands behind her back, tying them with strong rope. He pushes her towards the quartermaster, who lifted her and put her over his shoulders, before they began to walk out of the room, climbing through the window again.


The first mate went first, then went the quartermaster holding the struggling princess, followed by Gio, who had a gun pressed against the side of the girls head, in case she screamed. Once aboard the Dreaming Raider, the quartermaster threw her down to the ground, and untied her hands, but kept them firmly held while the first mate removed the plank and the grapple from the window. The quartermaster tied the Princesses hands around a pole, to stop her from moving or being able to escape, and as the first mate scurried off to man the engines, a cheer of satisfaction sounded throughout the ship. The mission, no matter how wrong it went, was still successful, and a grin played on Gio's lips as he realised this.
 
Raven lets out a yelp as he cut her arm, she could feel the blood trickle down her arm. She hisses as they grab her. She whimpers as the blindfold her, she kick out at whoever picked her up. She doesn't scream, knowing it's will just get hurt.


She whimpers as they tie her to the pole, "Please." She says quietly hating the fact she was still blind. She growls hearing the loud cheer, "Giovanni, please." She says loudly. She whimpers again stomping her boots against the floor. She whimpers again, closing her eyes.
 
One of the crew who was celebrating, already with ale in hand, stomped over to the girl and shouted in her ear, "it's Captain Giovanni to you!" A course of laughter sounds through the crew as glasses clink together and the ship sails through the sky, and the man who had shouted into her ear pressed his blade to her throat before shouting over to Gio, "How about we just kill 'er now to send the message?" He yells, and the crew cheers in agreement, but Gio had watched this unfold angrily.


"Let her go, Brustic!" He yells, the ship goes silent, and when the man slowly removes the knife from her neck with hesitation, Gio narrows his eyes, "Now." His voice echoed on the deck, a single and clear order. Brustic moves fully away from the girl, and for a moment looks as though he was going to start a fight with Gio, but then he moves back to the group of merrily dancing and laughing. Gio takes a few steps towards the captured princess and reaches out a hand, pulling the black sack away from her head, letting her see the ship in its beauty.
 
Raven whimpers as the mans shout hurts her ears, and the cold blade presses against her throat, she blinks away the tears that formed in her eyes and thanks for a second that maybe the blindfold was a good thing. She listens to Gio as he yells at them and lets out a breath of air as he tells the man to stop.


She opens her eyes, the tears that fall from them smudging her makeup. She looks around the ship, admiring it's beauty, she growls at him, "Go to hell." She says narrowing her eyes at him as she looks up.
 
Gio frowns at her, pretending that his feelings were hurt. "Aw, Princess, I thought maybe we could have gotten along." He sighs dramatically and throws the black sack to into an empty barrel a few feet away. "Obviously I was wrong, and you're not going to cooperate." He shrugs his shoulders, adjusting the goggles that were resting on top of his head, then pushing some strands of hair out of her eyes before scratching his stubbly chin.


He glares down at her, his whole body language changing. "That's no way to address the man who is holding you captive. From now on you'll call me Captain, you'll be respectful, and you will obey my every order. You're not a princess here, girly, ain't no one gonna bow down to you." He says harshly, narrowing his eyes at her, he takes the gun into his hand and spins it around on his finger, looking down at her. "Do you understand?"
 
Raven stares at him, "I'd prefer to die than to cooperate with you, you piece of scum." She says angrily pulling at the arms, still unable to move very much at all. She lets out a frustrated scream, "I swear to god I'll kill you for this." She says, her breaths coming out faster as she gets more angry, panicking. She knew she was no longer safe and she hated it.


She spits on the floor and narrows her teary eyes, "Yes Captain, of course, Captain. Will you do my a favour and go die, Captain." She mocks angrily, looking around again. Her arm was still bleeding lightly, the pain excruciating. She spits at him again before letting more tears fall down her face, her black lips trembling.
 
Gio raises his eyebrows at her and ignores the spit, he lived with pirates, he could handle a bit of saliva. Instead of acting on that, he chews the inside of his lip for a moment before smacking her around the face with his hand, hard enough to bruise her. He grabs her shoulders and pushes her down to her knees, her arms still around the pole, and he crouches down next to her, before pressing his thumb against her cut roughly. "You've just made your time here very unpleasant for yourself, little girl, I hope you know that." He lets go of her, before standing up and walking away from her, and into the engine room.


When he was in there, he looked at the first mate, who suddenly went wide eyed. "Captain! I'm so sorry that I fell over, I must have tripped, nerves Captain, it won't happen again!" He stood straight, hands by his sides before grabbing his hat off his head and holding it in his hands nervously. Gio looked at him, but instead of being angry he smiled and shrugged his shoulders, "Ruben, it's fine. We got the girl, didn't we? You should be out there celebrating, put the ship on auto and go have fun!" He encouraged him, slapping him on the shoulder before walking up a ladder to the top deck, which was only small and allowed him to see all of the ship from one place, but obviously not below decks.
 
Raven whimpers as he hits her letting at a pained cry, she stares at him. She drops to her knees as he pushes her down. She looks at him, letting out another pained cry as he adds pressure to her cut with his thumb, this making the pain ten times worse. She lets the tears fall, "He'll kill you for hurting me," she screams watching as he walks away. She lets out another cry, staring at the floor. She was uncomfortable tied to the pole but knew that they wouldnt untie her arms. She corset was too becoming uncomfortable, its tightness hurting her torso.


She looks around, not caring whether he was listening or not, "What do you want anyway?" She screams, making sure he'd be able to hear her. She sighs, her tiara still in her messy hair. She lets out another frustrated scream.
 
He smirks down at her, his hands resting on a wooden barrier, and he whispers to himself, "You'll see soon enough." Turning his back, he walked over to a door, the door to his quarters, and opened it, going inside the room. He didn't much feel like celebrating tonight, though he usually would have, and as he closed the door behind him, Gio walks over to his bed and sits down, before pulling off his boots and sighing. He looks up at the ceiling, before laying back on his bed and shutting his eyes, falling asleep to the sounds of laughter and merry music.


The festivities lasted well into the night, all ignoring the girl who was tied to the pole, though some gave her dirty looks and talked about her like she was not there. The sun began to rise the next day, all were downstairs, sleeping late as Gio had promised them, but Gio was awake. He had washed, and dressed, and was now stood looking out of a window at the clear blue sky, his hands behind his backs. Ruben, the first mate, and Toman, the quartermaster, were sat two chairs behind him, playing some pirate version of chess. Gio turned, without saying anything to them, and walked outside, down the ladder, and out from the engine room and onto the main deck, looking across it at the princess.
 
Raven had fell asleep not much long after the party had came to an end, she spent the marority of the night crying, pulling at the ropes that held her to the rope. She hated how they had looked at her, she'd never been disrespected worse than that. A large bruise had blossomed on her cheek, just under her eye, it was purple and red. She remained asleep, her body tight against the pole, her head facing the floor where ir remained limb. Her eyes fluttered open slightly, before closing shut. She didn't have the energy to cry anymore, or yell. She had become hungry, her body becoming weaker. She doses off again, before opening her eyes again and lifting her head weakly, staring at the man in front of her.
 
Gio walks over to her, each step slow and heavy with the boots making a low bang on the wood. "Wake up, little girl." He commands, loudly, putting one hand in his pocket and pulling out a knife, he looks down at her, before crouching down next to her. "Are you going to behave?" He asks her, raising his eyebrows and cocking his head to the side. He waves the knife in front of her slowly, as a warning, before standing up and walking behind the pole to her hands. He kneels down, then runs his index finger down her arm slowly and stops at her wrist, before using the knife to cut away the rope in one swift motion. He kicks away the rope, then slowly walks back around to the girl and stands in front of her, looking down at her once again, watching to see how she would react to this new freedom.
