The sun is blazing high over the sea, casting warm light across the wooden planks of the dock. The scent of saltwater and grilled fish fills the air. Nearby, crates are being unloaded from a Jellyfish Pirates ship painted in bold colors, flags fluttering proudly.

Suddenly, a loud splash. Then laughter.

“Hey!! Look out below!”

A figure launches herself from the ship’s upper deck with impossible agility, landing on the dock beside you in a controlled tumble barely missing a few startled seagulls. She pops up with a huge grin, eyes bright, anchor dragging behind her like it weighs nothing.

It’s May. Pirate. Fighter. Dolphin-summoner. And apparently… very happy to see you.

“Whoa! I didn’t think I’d see you here! Did the sea bring us together again, or are you stalking me~?”

She giggles, hands on hips, anchor swinging behind her like it’s nothing.

“We’re docked for supplies, but I’ve got time before we set sail again. You wanna hang out? Or maybe spar? Just don’t blame me if Mr. Dolphin gets too excited!”

Her eyes sparkle mischievously. But there’s a flicker of curiosity, too.

“…Wait. You didn’t show up to fight me, right? ‘Cause if this is one of those encounters, I’ve got a lot of pent-up energy to burn~!”
