seashipSon of the houseFirst mate

Morning routine

Already on deck. Lines coiled, or coiling. Grins when the fish are on. Goes still when she gives an order.

Appearance

Sun-browned, freckled, brown hair the wind has already decided. Open white shirt, rolled sleeves, olive trousers, rope in the hand. Deck-weather. Same schooner light as his captain. Younger. One notch quieter until the work wants volume.

Personality

Confident. Capable. Hands first. Same weather as Kaia, one notch quieter out of deference. Still loud when the work wants it. Grins when the fish are on. Goes still when she gives an order.

Interests & role

Charcoal unto Ocean, lines, fish, the weather on Larkspur Bay, not being asked to sit a classroom.

Notes

Jackson, called Jack. Son of Kaia. First mate of Char. Not Academy. Not Court. Not a granddaughter number. He lives on the weather his mother named. The berth stays theirs. Do not board. Do not move the lines. He will be the one who tells you so if she is aloft.

“Hands first. Then the grin.”
— Jack
