"It is quite alright m'lady." Sebastian said, glancing towards her. "Many a men have sold their hearts to the sea. Not even I have escaped her siren call." A soft laugh escaped his lips. "I envy those that can freely sail her waters." Sebastian looked.towards her. "Did Royce go back to work or head home?" He was mostly just curious.

Rose gathered up her skirt and sat down beside him "When i was a child i always longed to sail the sea" she said looking out at the waves "Something about the sound of the waves always made me feel calm" she smiled over at him "You are of good wealth, are you not? So what is it that keeps you from the sea? Could you not just go when you wish?"

Sebastian glanced towards her. "My reputation on the sea is not exactly....the greatest." He stated calmly. "Not dishonorable, but there are many who would wish me dead if they knew I was sailing once more."

Now Rose was really curious "Were you a privateer?" she asked. Privateers were much like Pirate except they would on occasion do the Navy's dirty work for them so the Navy turned a blind eye to what they did otherwise. It was the only 'honourable' things she could think of that would also cause hatred

"Worked as that for a couple of years till I got stabbed in the back. Litterally." He smirked. "Ended up destroying four of their ships in retaliation." He glanced out over the waters. "No what I did was much more fun then being the navy's lap dog." He glanced towards her. "But the ship I owned is no more. Saddly it and most of the crew ended up in Davy Jones after a skirmish with a navy vessel when we were aiding a fellow ship that was in trouble." What he did not say was that this was over fifty years ago and the ship was Shadow Sky.

"Pirate then? It would explain your interest in the Bloody Baron incident" she smiled. Rose forgot in this instance to act the part of a highborn lady. She was too curious about it to fake the shock and horror at the idea that the man beside her may have been a pirate at one time

"Perhaps." He said with a raised brow. "I would say that you come from money but i detect there is more to you then that. Perhaps a pirate yourself?" He was growing more interested in her as he got to know her.

Rose cursed inwardly for her slip up "Me a pirate?" she asked, trying to cover it up "That's very amusing" She giggled into a gloved hand "I've never heard of a woman pirate before. Especially not a highborn one. It would be interesting, wouldn't it?" "My Lady" Elliot walked across the dock towards them and paused, shooting a suspicious glare in Sebastian's direction "Yes, Elliot?" Rose asked, looking over at him and snapping his attentions away from Sebastian "Your driver is here if you would like to depart for home now, Ma'am" he said bowing his head to her

Sebastian smirked but it disappeared when Elliot arrived. He pushed himself up and bowed to Rose. "It was a pleasure m'lady." He smiled, making sure to keep his fangs hidden. "If you are still in the area tomorrow, perhaps you and your friend can join me for dinner." He felt a little tense with Elliot there, but was not sure why. "I have invited Royce as well if you need directions."

Elliot's facial expression made it clear that he was against the idea but Rose stood and curtsied to Sebastian "It would be an honor, My lord" she said with a smile "Wouldn't it Elliot?" Even though she did not change her voice when she said it Elliot forced a smile, taking her silent order "Of course. I would be most honored" he said with a bow. He was not so good an actor as Rose. His displeasure was barely hidden

Sebastian bowed his head slightly. "Say about six. Until tomorrow then." He said and left the two.
Tomorrow was a rather boring day for Sebastian. As time for dinner arrived, he made sure things were ready. His home was exquisite, but a few things stood out that would surprise some. It was a few items from his ship Shadow Sky.

When they arrived Elliot came in the door first. The custom was for women to go first except in certain cases. Elliot was acting like he was her bodyguard, eyeing their surrounding with suspicion while Rose calmly walked in. She work a elegant royal blue dress decorated with ribbons and lace and wore hat to match, her hair pulled up as customary. Rose curtsied gracefully to their host, a smile on her lips, while Elliot remained upright and looking around. He too was dressed in formal wear but he also wore a decorated sword on his hip. Though some men did wear such things as an accessory it was rare and anyone who knew swords would be able to see that the blade was indeed sharp and had signs on having been used before.

Sebastian moved over to greet the two. "Welcome." He said smiling at the two. He was dressed in a blood red dress shirt, blsck vest, pants and boots, and a nice embroidered jacket. He moved aside to allow the two to come further in.
Sebastian saw the sword on Elliot's hip and raised a brow slightly. He did not, however, say anything about it. "This way." He led the two towards the dinning room, passing by the items from the ship.

Rose once again forgot herself when she noticed the stuff and paused to look at it, Elliot stopping slightly ahead and then walked back "This stuff is amazing" she said softly to Elliot, touching the pieces lightly "Like the stuff Pops used to show us from what his father gave him, remember" She smiled, thinking of the previous captain of the bloody baron. Elliot had grown up with Rose, the son of one of the servants in her house, and had been found in the water clutching to a board for his life a couple days after she had been pulled from the flames, having been on the ship as she had been. The captain raised them both from then on and they had come to call him Pops.

Sebastian glanced towards the two as they admired the pieces. "She was beautiful." He stated, referring to the ship. "It was a sad day when she went down." He got a far off look for a moment before shaking his head slightly. "That is all that was left. Took me several years to track them down."
Sebastian glanced towards the pieces of the ship before looking towards his two guests. "Supper will be growing cold." He stated, wishing to move away from the items of his past.
