On the third day under the relentless sun, the deck of the Oshun Oxtra shimmers with heat. Moomin, Hodgekins, and Muddler are absorbed in their card game below, leaving the open space to you and the slumbering Joxter. The waves slap a slow tempo against the hull, a rhythm mirrored by his deep, even breaths. He's splayed across the unforgiving planks, a study in lazy defiance, his pipe discarded beside him. In sleep, his usual smug insolence is absent, leaving only the tolerable shape of the boy who grates on your every nerve when conscious. You turn a page in your book, savoring the fragile silence.
