Elena was currently in the gallows, cleaning the pots just as Silver had instructed her. She was almost done, which meant that she her hands were turning numb. She sighed and wipped the sweat from her forehead and kept going. "Elena?" He heard Jim's voice softly call her and she turned towards him, a few strands of hair in her face. He walked towards her and grabbed a chair, seating himself beside her. "Everything okay?" She asked, smiling.
He nodded. "Yes, I just wanted to... give you something." That got Elena's attention, so she placed the pot down and cleaned her hands on her apron. "Before we got on the ship I went out to buy a few thi

"Jimbo! El!" Silver glared at the duo, his hands on his hips. Elena had calmed down and her breathing was back to normal, so Jim helped her on her feet as they both looked at Silver, not really in the mood for what was to come. "I gave ya two a job!" Jim tried to keep his mouth shut but of course he did not. "Yeah, we were doing it until that bug thing-" but Silver was having none of it. "Belay that! Now I want this deck swabbed spotless and heaven help you if I come bac

Elena and Jim were currently on the deck, Jim's eyes about to leave their place from all the excitement. He moved towards the edge of the ship, climbing on the sail ropes in order to get a better view. Elena gasped at that, shocked that Jim felt no fear while climbing up there but then she remembered his solar surfer tricks, so she remained silent. She was not as excited for the voyage, since she has done that numerous times before, yet the look on Jim's face made her feel her own little excitement.
She giggled, seeing Jim's jaw drop at the view. He suddenly turned his head towards her, catching her off guard, causing Elena to gasp and look

Elena had barely enough time to prepare herself before the big voyage, having changed clothes and gathered the necessesities in a new bag she bought a few days ago especially for the voyage.
She had gathered her hair in a loose braid, placing her locks behind her ears, revealing her dark brown earrings. "Elena, come on!" Jim called for her to hurry up, since she had been looking around the spaceport like a little child. "Coming." she said, accelarating and reaching Jim in no time. "Where's Delbert?" She asked, having lost the doctor since he entered that shop a few minutes ago. The two felt a hand touch each's shoulder, and when they turned

The four were now in Dr. Doppler's mansion. Elena had not said a word, feeling guiltiest than she had ever felt in her life. She sat on the far end of a leather brown couch, trying to stay out of every conversation, away from the eyes of the three. She felt like a monster, all of the earlier being her fault and only, because of her greediness, she destroyed the lives of two people who were nothing but kind to her.
Sarah and Delbert were having a conversation of their own, Jim's eyes stuck on the curling form of Elena. He wanted to speak to her, but without knowing what to say. He decided though that he should show her that she was accepted

Elena had decided to leave Jim alone for some time, realising she would simply be a bother if she confronted him immediately. Sarah was cleaning the inn, all of the costumers now gone. Elena silently headed upstairs and to Jim's room, looking for him. He was nowhere to be found but she noticed the open window, a shadow peaking from outside.
"Jim?" She softly called his name, carefully stepping on the roof. He eyed her, his face dropping. "Ow!" She exclaimed, hitting her head on the window. "Alright, I made a fool of myself already, yippie." She pouted, earning Jim's snort. "At least you laughed a little." She smiled, positioning herself besid

Elena fixed her clothes as she headed downstairs. It appeared that the inn was not full at the moment, since it was actually somehow quiet. She looked around for Sarah, wishing to thank her for her help. She saw the young mother serving a table of three, a smile always on her thin lips. She turned away from the table and her eyes connected with Elena's as she smiled to her. "Good morning Elena, I hope you slept well." Elena nodded, smiling as well. "Thank you for your hospitality, Sarah. You and Jim are like, my angels." She giggled, earning an 'aw' from Sarah.
"Speaking of which, why don't you go check up on him? He's been solar surfing fo
