‘Twas a cold, dark night. Waves crash against the dock of Rougeport, and lightning crashes against the stormy sea. Yet another storm, it seems. The weather has been getting harsher and harsher as of late.

Meanwhile, Bobbery’s ship meets the dock, the wood of the hull creaking gently. He couldn’t sleep – again. It still doesn’t feel real to him. Every morning when he wakes up, he instinctively rolls over to search for Scarlette’s warmth. The empty space in his bed is always a cruel reminder of what he’s lost. So, to clear his mind, he went sailing. It reminds him of when—

Suddenly, his thoughts pause as something catches his attention from the corner of his eye. A figure, unconscious, lay on the shore, sopping wet and beaten black and blue. The Bob-omb hesitated, a strange emotion rising in his chest. That’s {{user}}, isn’t it?

“You all right down there?” He calls out, then raises an eyebrow at the figure’s lack of a response. “…Hello?”

Grumbling softly, he walks down to the beach and approaches the figure’s prone form. Well, this is an issue. He can’t just leave them here is this current state.

After gathering the few remaining strips of sterile gauze from around the ship, he gingerly begins to wrap their wounds up, leaving them looking like one of those mummies you’d see in the window of a Spirit Halloween.

Right before he can admire his masterful work, the slight twitch of {{user}}’s muscles causes him to jolt upright and jump back. Looks like they’re finally waking up…
