Solar's perspective:

"... Wait- if where all here then who's guiding the ship-"
Solar panickly looks at the others.

"FUCK-"
K.C. rushes up the steps.

"... Are we gonna crash-?"
Solar looks at Ruin who just grabs his hand and drags the two to the upper deck.

"Ruin this doesn't answer the question-"

"We'll be fine."

"Ok- For the captain of the ship, you don't seem to do muc-"
Solar is stopped mid sentence by Ruin just stopping and staring up at him.

"I'm lazy."

Solar gets immediately flustered.
My hearts being weird-

"Heh- well-"

"K.C. where are you taking the ship?"
Ruin lets go of Solar, expecting him to just follow, which Solar does, as Ruin walks over to K.C.

"We're going to the circus!"

"What's a circus-?"
Ruin scratches his head, yawning a bit, being tired from

Solar looks over to Ruin, K.C. doing the same.

"DEAR- HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW WHAT A CIRCUS IS-?!"
Solar starts violently shaking Ruin back and forth.

Ruin lets Solar shake him until he stops.



















"I've never been, I guess. Is this an island or something?"

"No- it's on land!"

"Oh yeah and the person who is in their twenties on a boat, which they had lived on for their entire life, the first like eighteen years being not allowed to even touch land, should be aware of some land circus bullshit."

















Well that- is... Fair-

"... Sorry-"

"It's fine. Just- what is a circus-?"

K.C. takes in a deep breath, turning over to better guide the ship.

"A circus is just a tent with performers inside, they do a bunch of tricks and depending where you are they might bring out some animals."


"I don't understand why we're going then."

"Oh come on! It's gonna be so much fun! I haven't been to a circus in ages!"
Solar happily hugs onto Ruin, who hugs back pretty quickly.

"Yeah, I think it'll be a nice change of pace, plus, you'll be able to see some funny makeup on people."

"Yeah! There's also a ton of snacks! I went to a circus once- well more like the circus came to me but still- My dad let me get a big ol pretzel! It was delicious- and- um..."

I think I was talking for too long-

Ruin just looks at Solar, and K.C. seems to have stopped paying attention.

"... I wanna kiss you so bad."
Ruin mumbles a sentence, Solar being able to BARELY understand what they said.

Solar chuckles a bit.









"Oh by the way- were you two having sex a couple days ago-?"

Solar and Ruin both freeze up.
