They walked down the stairs of the main area of their base. Mystery and Jaden, two peas in a pod. Although you couldn’t always catch them together, it tends to be when Jaden is taking charge myst is sleeping, and when myst is in charge. Jaden is resting. But today, they were awake and together, walking down the corridors catching up with each other and the crew.
Something notably different about mystery, is that he changed up his voice. Since the incident on the boat, where he almost drown. The water had broken his first voice change. And so he decided to make himself sound more feminine—to match the ‘mama’ title people started giving him.
“Captain! Mama!” One of the more younger crew members came running. “There’s the fuc- flipping Immortal demon at the waiting room. And some… annoying, green guy…” the dark haired male told Wemmbu, changing up his wording last minute to not get reminded about his language from mama.
“Oh not that guy…” Mystery sighed to himself, cringing. “You can swear all you like at the annoying green guy, though—leave flamefrags alone.” Myst added, patting the pirate on the back. Smiling at them, even if it doesn’t show, you can always hear if someone is smiling or not.
“I’d suggest to tell people to hide…” He whispered to the boy, watching him run off, an aura of contentment and happiness left on Wemmbu. Which only faded away as Jaden and Wemmbu looked at each other, both of the, thinking about dealing with the other, much more annoying duo. Which lead them quickly walking off to the room the young boy said flame and Boosfer were in.
“Flame!?” Jaden called out walking into the room, scanning it. Spotting Boosfer first, then flame sitting next to him. Looking annoyed as fuck. “Hey…” he added cautiously. Wemmbu stood next to Jaden, invis protecting him from flames wraith.
Mystery’s arm locked itself with Jaden’s arm, grounding the two of them. The light teal cuffs and corset matching with Jadens navy blue sash, hat and face mask quite well. Flame noted the addition of jewellery on Jaden, probably from the chick next to him-
Wait what? Last he checked, Jaden did NOT have rizz like that. “Who’s the lady bro.” Flame asked, genuinely curious. Who would subject themselfs to the life of a pirate’s wife.
“It’s myst, short for mystery because he’s a fucking mystery.” Jaden responded, sounding a bit teasing as he looked at the invisible player. He supposes he understood where flame was coming from, mistaking Wemmbu for a lady.
“Oh. Sorry bro, didn’t mean to mis gender you… and all that bro-.” Flame said, looking myst up and down. The cocky idiot lifted his head up high, ignoring flamefrags… oh… Rude. Flame was just apologising. Who cares, he just needs jadens help in finding Wemmbu. “Like, bro Jaden, can you help me find Wemmbu bro?” Flame blurted out, eyes turning back to Jaden. Flame heard a snort and Jaden covered his mask with his hand.
“Sorry sorry… he’s dead flame. And even if he wasn’t. I’m not going to send anymore of my crew out for a suicide mission. You know what Wemmbu’s like first hand.” Jaden quickly and effectively covered up his laugh. Ignoring the fact Wemmbu is literally clung to his arm, Jaden looked to Boosfer face.. It seemed like he knew who Wemmbu was by the confused look on his face as he eyes shifted through both myst and Jaden.
No wonder Wemmbu wanted Boosfer dead. And he was working with flame now it seems, even worse. They’d never going to get him dead.
Flame looked to Boosfer. “really… that’s what. The 2nd person who’s know where he would be that said he died. “What’s really going on.” Flame said, turning to look at Boosfer.
“Hey-hey man! You wanna know where Wemmbu is! Get a team together!” The shorter green man responded nervously, before-
“Mama!” Flame and Boosfer’s head snapped to the door, as an older teen lightly grabbed mystery’s hand, gaining his attention.
“Yeah?” He responded curiously, not shutting down his… Kid??? Even if he was in the middle of an important discussion. That’s… sweet.
“I saw this really cool bir- oh.” The teen started explaining excitedly, before he eyes stopped on flamefrags. Jaden look from his pirate to flame. Frowning at the demon.
Myst also looked to flame. Before letting go off jadens arm. Looking back to the young pirate. “Show me where to saw this bird.” The- hold on, all of these mannerisms where female like, are they sure this wasn't a chick? The invisible person said, more of a demand than a question.
Although the teen was frozen looking at flame, breathing heavier and faster. Mystery’s shoulders tensed, hands resting on the youngers shoulders. “Honey, breathe. Flames not here to kill.” He said with a certainty that even Flame also most believed him. Flame was about to say something when he himself froze, feeling the disgusted, and mean look mystery was giving him without even seeing the knights face.
Flame bowed his head a little, like a Cub being caught doing something it’s not supposed to. Holy unholy mother’s compassion. Was all flame could think as myst walked away with the teen. “Uhm… well… that took me back to when I was 6.” He mused to himself quietly, feeling a little embarrassed he let himself be stared into submission BY AN INVIS PERSON. “Bro, Are we sure that wasnt a woman? Like bro, they seemed pretty scary to me bro…” Flame stated, rubbing the back of his neck in shame.
Jaden looked back at the corridor. “I’m like. 87% certain it’s a man. Considering I’ve seen them visible before.” He told Flame harshly, looking back to the blaze hybrid he was addressing.
“Uh- uhm.” Boosfer started, stuttering over his words. It seemed like a million thoughts were going through his mind. “Let’s just get out of here Flamefrags—Wemmbu is alive though trust me!” He finished, looking to the corridor, he stood. Not quite following Flame out. But staying behind to talk to Jaden.
“You know that’s Wemmbu right?” He asked carefully, and quietly as so flame couldn’t hear. Jaden looked at him unimpressed.
“Of course I do.” He replied rising an eyebrow. “Now get lost.”
