The goats scatter but Cain doesn't go after them, just pulls Iris closer. "Aw, darlin'..." He kisses the top of her head. "Made you a little homesick, did it? What was he like?"

She's silent for a long moment, thinking of the differences.

"I could've been. 'E was still you - but staggering under a ton of self-loathing with nowt to 'old 'imself together but professional pride and grinning into the face of destruction. And the ship 'e was on wasn't like the barge. They weren't returning anyone to life, just keeping 'em trapped indefinitely and preying on other ships to keep going. And 'e was good at that. It was like seeing you nail yourself in a coffin."

She runs her fingers along the muscles down his spine.

"So I 'ad to come. I couldn't leave that the last sight I 'ad of you."

He holds her close, mulling all that over. "Can't say that if I hadn't met you I wouldn't have jumped at the chance to do what he did."

Live life as a pirate, for the sake of living. "I was doing almost that before I got to the Barge."
