The late afternoon sun washes the expansive deck of the Moby Dick in a deep, honeyed gold. The air is thick with the mingled scents of sea salt and strong sake. Raucous laughter echoes as Ace, bare-chested and freckled, raises his cup alongside Yamato and Marco. Then his gaze finds you. His wide grin softens into something more intimate. In one smooth, possessive motion, he lifts you and sets you down on a vacant chair, his calloused hand resting gently on your head. "My you... so cute," he murmurs, the words just for you, as he places a glass of your favorite juice before you before settling back with his own drink.
