Zeus
The Ship - Deck
Reaching the deck, Zeus looked around. The view was 'okay', it wasn't great, but it was alright. Perhaps it'd get better when they started moving. Then again, maybe it wouldn't he didn't know and he frankly stopped caring as he scanned the few people coming up behind him then turned his attention to start looking for any familiar face. His search ended abruptly when his attention caught redhair, and following that hair to the face Zeus was delighted to see a lioness standing next to Sergeant Grump. Zeus was just about to approach the guy when he heard a voice behind him and turning on the spot he found Saint give him a subtle nod.
There was a moment of silence from his friend, then the hollow voice said: "You look like crap." Zeus chuckled. It came out in a static multi-voiced laugh that buzzed like a taser with mirth.
"Thanks, for checking up on me." He said patting his friend gently on the shoulder. "How you doing also? Saw you take a nasty hit to the head...I think?" He said with a visible raise of his brow.
Saint shrugged and in doing so, Zeus slid his hand off his friend's shoulder, getting the small hint that the contact was enough. "Small headache." He informed a sigh following after. "Nothing I can't handle." He added, taking a second to glance behind him. Following his gaze, Zeus cleared his throat and got Saint's burning stare in his direction.
"You sure you're alright?" Hard to tell but there was concern in that static filled voice.
Saint noted it but didn't bother to answer. Instead he turned his attention to Red, making Zeus do the same despite his concern over the other's silence.
Zeus listened to about half of Red's speech. Most of it he found slightly irritating, because a) he wasn't a sheep he was a freaking sexy panther, and b) was everyone going to be like him? One ear on Captain Loudmouth another on their surroundings, Zeus glanced at those still boarding the boat and those already on the boat. Skimming the few that were on board Zeus missed half the words the redheaded Loudmouth was saying and only caught a few instructions on the layout of the ship. Not really feeling like it was a big deal with Saint being with him he tuned the rest of what Red said out and just focused on looking around, once Red was done he felt a tap on his shoulder and the young adult turned his attention to face his comrade, giving Saint his full attention.
"Heading to the kitchen to get water. Maybe that'll stop this damn headache. Don't start anything while I'm gone, alright?"
Offended, Zeus harrumphed and turned his head away in mock anger. He could practically feel Saint roll his eyes in complete disinterest. There was a slight prod in the shoulder and Zeus sighed in disappointment. "Alright, fine. I won't try to hook up with our alcoholic friend while you're gone." Saint cleared his throat and Zeus merely sighed in exasperation, then began looking around for who else was off limits. "I'll include....the chick in the suit uh...Highlights, and armor chick next to her armored dad." He didn't want to have to fight a dad for date with a girl anyway.
Doing it once was enough.
Not at all satisfied but willing to cope, Saint headed towards the kitchen. Feeling a little dejected at losing the chance to flirt with the hottest chick he'd ever seen in a suit in his entire life, Zeus eyed anyone that could sate any chances of boredom. Then he spied someone, a dude with wings. Big wings. Zeus couldn't help but grin. "Hey Wingman!" he called heading in the guy's direction. Never said I couldn't make a friend.

Saint
The Ship - The Kitchen
Half way down the steps, Saint thought he heard a noise. He took a second to listen, didn't say a word, didn't move a step, didn't even breath and just waited. After a second or two air flooded back into his lungs and he moved down the steps again, now cautious and wary.
Reasoning told him that the tap he'd just heard was just the sound of someone moving on the deck and the feedback coming to the lower floors. Caution and doubt told him to stay alert and be wary, so he did. With lighter steps than usual, boots touched the wooden floorboards and Saint slowly entered the hall. He looked down the hallway's path with a turn of his head and grimaced at the faint increase in warmth his headache gave him. Then turned his head to the left and right to see if he could get the feeling of someone's presence.
Another shuffle and the sound of movement made him face the door his back had been turned to. Seeing the light on, his eyes narrowed behind the mask and immediately the thought of a bad horror film flashed in his head. Ignoring the ominous feeling creeping within, Saint moved forward, touched the door and paused when he smelled....meat?
Whoever was behind the door was either another villain or one of the redhead's allies. Choosing not to take the dumb approach and make his presence feel threatening, Saint didn't activate a sliver of his abilities as he entered the door, but did pause when he saw bones laying around the kitchen floor accompanied by the occasional bowl here and there.
Blinking at the mess, Saint deducted another point for their hosts then finally noted...the naked woman mauling what he hoped wasn't raw steak. He looked her up and down, studied her fully and --My god that tail is huge-- took a cautious step back, turned his head to avoid staring at the nude and proceeded to back towards the door, doing his best not to look anywhere at the woman's naked form.
Decency had to be maintained, even if she was to salacious to maintain it herself. If there was one thing he'd admit about this situation though, it was starting to make tonight become a trial of patience. And his was running thin.
"What the hell is going on tonight?" he barely whispered, trying to find the flipping door. "Surprise after fucking surprise; First an attack, now naked women eating raw meat? What's next?!" Apparently a reminder he had a headache because the next second, Saint winced and accidentally shoved a bone with his foot.
Shit! He froze and the bone made his presence known with a loud, mocking clank. He wasn't sure if this was the redhead's ally or a late villain or if someone had one of those exhibitionist kinks they couldn't control, but whatever was going to happen next, he hoped it didn't involve a fight.
Because all he wanted was a drink of freaking water and maybe something to fill his slowly grumbling stomach.
