Melody felt her cheeks warm up when his lips touched her ear. Then she glared and slid her hand over her chin and then wiping it on his forehead, before going to find a bathroom...As quickly as she could. Really, she ran for the bathroom.

"Don't fall again, Princess!" Fawkes laughed after her and shook his head before turning around to go and grab homself some food. Man, was he going to have fun while Melody was around, bullying her was awesome.

FF- The Next Morning
Melody was just leaving the bathroom. She was walking back to the kitchen to help with the kitchen duties, yawning softly to herself. She was tired, and although it was easy work, she was sore. That's what she got for not working a day in her life.
Joseph was running late. He finished his meeting with his boss and got back to the ship and got up on deck, looking around for Dez.

Fawkes was heading up onto the deck, coils of extra rope in his arms, he rounded a corner and walked into Melody, bumping into her gently. "Wow, Princess, you look like shit!" He grinned and winked at her, she deserved soreness and exhaustion.
Dez saw him before he saw her, she had an angry look on her face, once again she'd been ordered to help him, but how the hell was she supposed to do that when he wasn't there? And the Captain had ordered her to look around for him, and then to wait for him to show up to, which was a total waste of her precious time. She came up behind him and tightly gripped one of his shoulders, nails digging into it. "Where the fuck were you, you idiot stick, you were supposed to be here a long time ago!" Dez snarled into his face was she'd forcefully turned him to face her.

Melody growled and glared at him. "So's your face!" she shouted, unable to think of a better response. Then she stalked after him. "why are you picking on me? I don't understand!" she asked, rather huffy about it.
Joseph looked down at her, looking surprised at her strength. Man, that was one helluva turn on, he thought, and bowed his head. "I had other priorities to attend to, Dez. I apologize," he answered honestly- he wasn't comfortable sharing that he worked for Death with others yet. He'd tried once, and....well, that person had annoyed him until they finally died. Beggars. I'll have to talk to the Captain about this...Nah, I like getting chewed out by Dez.

Fawkes stopped to look at her, surprised at first and then smiling. "Because you react, and I enjoy when people react to my teasings, especially little princess' like you." He showed her his white teeth in a taunting grin. "I bet you can't wait to crawl back to mommy and daddy," he had no idea her parents were deceased, "they do everything for you, don't they? Wipe your fucking ass for you..."
"Other priorites... Yeah, well if you have something more important, and we both know you do, then you should leave the ship so my fucking time doesn't have to be wasted!" Dez hissed and looked over her shoulder at the Captain, his attention was elsewhere though. "You apologize way to much, and I don't like to fucking hear it, because you know what? When you apologize that means you've done something wrong. And I don't like it when people do things imporperly under my watch, got it?" Dez poked him square in the chest a couple of times.

Melody glared at him, but said nothing. She just stood there, shaking a bit as she tried to figure out how to respond to his comment. She just kept glaring at him, unaware of the fact that she was crying.
Joseph nodded. "I understand, Dez. And I have done something wrong- I didn't inform you that I had other priorities to attend to and thus wasted your time," he informed her in an unintentionally snide way. "Punish me?" And now he was flirting.

His expression dulled as he watched the tears and his head tilted to the side, he was honestly confused. "Princess? What's with the tears? Can't handle a bit of teasing?" Fawkes asked, watching her cry, he put the ropes on the ground and rested his hands on his hips, staring into her eyes.
Dez's lips parted in shock at the way he'd spoken to her and then she tightly shut it, muscles flexing in her cheeks. "Cocky bastard, you'd better watch your fucking mouth or else i'll sew it shut." She glared at him and gave him a weird look at his suggestion, she, being the tom-boy she was didn't know what flirting really was, and couldn't tell when it was happening. "You want to be punished? Fine, you can polish the yards on the mast today, hope you have fun trying to balance while inhaling heated up fumes." Dez bared her teeth at him and then turned sharply on her heal. "The shit you need is downstairs in the laundry room, go get it, i'll be up there waiting, hurry your ass up."

Melody touched her cheeks and wiped he eyes, scowling. "I can handle teasing! Damn it," she muttered and sniffled, wiping her eyes and looking away, humiliated. "My parents just died four...five days ago. Not that you care, but that's why I'm crying, so....Yeah," she rambled. Melody waited for him to commence the teasing- ha ha, your parents are dead and what not...Like Dudley in Harry Potter.
Joseph snickered and watched her go, then headed on down the stairs to grab the polishing stuff. He returned and stood before her with the materials. "I'm ready to get to being punished, Dez," he informed her happily, looking smug still.

"... Well... I guess that gives you a right to cry, doesn't it... Hm." Fawkes couldn't tease her about that, he was mean, yes, but... That would just be cruel to make fun of her for osmething like that. "I'm surprised you haven't been sobbing tirelessly in that room of yours, princess... I guess you've got a little strengh in you." He said and picked his ropes back up. "I've got to go to work." He said simply and quickly started to head off, he was thrown-off by the news she'd given him.
"Wipe that look off your fucking face." She demanded at once, violently grabbing some of his supplies out of his hands and started to climb up the ratlines with them, since they were going up to the yard posts again to tie knots and to clean and polish.

Melody stared after him, surprised and...oddly, warmed. She sniffled, wiping her eyes and pouting, wishing she could just go and sob....But then he'd make fun of her. SHe swallowed and headed back into the kitchen after a few more minutes.
Joseph became serious and climbed up after her. "I love the view from these heights," he commented, but it was a total inuendo. He was feeling...risky that day. WHy not gamble on a risky day? he thought and laughed in his head.

Dez felt her cheeks grow warm as she finally got to the yard, she climbed onto it and turned herself around so they'd be facing each other and then she straddled it so she wouldn't fall off while working. "Just be quiet and start polishing, the view isn't fucking important." Shehanded him his tools back ones he was on the yard to and then she started to tie knots while watching him from under her eyelids to make sure he was doing it right.

Joseph began to polish. He read the instructions first and followed them, getting right immediately this time. He hummed to himself as he worked, some sort of old pirates tune that he enjoyed. "Yo ho," he would occasionally sing out softly.

Dez listened to his soft singing, it broke through her thoughts every now and again, amking her think of songs as well. "And there they lay, all good dead men...Like break o'day in a boozing ken...Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum." She muttered out in song quietly, unable to help it, she moved back a little, starting on a new knot and becoming quiet once more.

FF- Sunset
Joseph was grinning like an idiot by the end of the day. He'd been singing all day with Dez, and shooting her comments in order to get yelled at. He was crushing on her, a bit. He figured it wouldn't go anywhere, but it was nice to feel at the time. He stepped into the closet of his room and disappeared off to Hell to meet with Death once more.
Melody prodded her dinner slowly, eyes half-lidded with thought. It was a stew of sorts...She sighed to herself, remembering her mother's stew. Shrugging, she took a bite and sent appreciation thoughts towards the chef, grinning softly. She began to talk to herself again, making up a story for the food.
