"And you gotta make sure to look after everyone else. It helps to remember that even if you lose someone or some pride, you have to protect the things you do have that much more, eh?" Marco explained the best he could. To him, it was something people either got or they didn't, but he still wanted to use enough words to help her figure it out.

He gave a grin about Ace though. "Aye. He won't ever admit it, but he does a lot better having someone nearby when he's asleep. Besides, when Ace is asleep, you can't disturb him. He's a rock solid sleeper." But don't mind Marco shipping you two in his head, okay?

"You don't have to worry about that, Marco! I want more than anything to make sure everyone is safe! I don't want anyone to have to go through anything like what I did!" She sat up straight, looking at him with quite and intensity of feeling, though she looks a little flushed with the effort of it all.

"Hmm... I dunno if that would work. I mean, he'd notice something isn't right. I probably feel quite different to his brother." Totally oblivious to any shipping thoughts, or how weird what ahe said might sound.

[fierybluebird]

Marco nodded softly, and then grinned, completely chuckling. "Probably, but trust me he'd only appreciate it," the pirate grinned slyly.

[booyaka_boom]

"Really? I dunno... I mean, that time he came into my bed I got pretty freaked out. What if he suddenly wakes up and punches me in the face?!" The way she looked at Marco made it quite obvious that she definitely thought he was capable of that.

[fierybluebird]

Selphie you don't even know how hard you're making it for the pirate here. His shipper feelings are only multiplying by the second.

He grins in spite of himself and his best efforts not to, "He probably only freaked out because he thought you'd be mad. If you go out there now, I guarantee it will only make him really happy."

The grin spread and Marco crossed his heart in an X formation. "Cross my heart, eh?"

[booyaka_boom]

Yes, she can have a habit of allowing that to happen without even realising it. She still doesn't look very convinced, but then he crosses his heart and assured her that it would be okay. Marco and Ace are really close, so he should know his sleeping habits well, after all. And Selphie only wants to please, and she does owe her captain a lot for saving her. She shuffled onto the edge of the bed, feet on the floor. "Should I go see him now?"

[fierybluebird]

He nods, "Absolutely."

And then gives a birdie head tilt. "Want me to bring you hot chocolate while you're out there? And you might want some extra blankets, he just wanted to sleep on the deck this time. He used to do that a lot too, eh."

[booyaka_boom]

"Okay then." And she slid herself off the bed and stretched, still feeling a little rusty with moving.

"Yes, please. I might take a book up to read too. You don't wanna hang out up there too?" The promise of blankets and hot chocolate makes it sound fun after all.

[fierybluebird]

"Aye, I'll come join in phoenix form, I was thinking of reading up there myself, eh," Marco grinned softly. "Head out ahead of me and I'll bring the hot chocolate soon enough. I'm glad you're feeling better." There might be something of a sparkle to his eyes.

[booyaka_boom]

"Awesome! It'll be like a super cosy sleepover." She moved over to her door, a bit more of a spring in her step. Before leaving, she turned to Marco with a happy smile on her face, "Thanks for coming to visit me, Marco. That was really kind of you."

[fierybluebird]

"It's my pleasure cutie," Marco grinned, "After all, we're crewmates, aren't we?"

[booyaka_boom]

And that just made Selphie smile even brighter - she can't help it if she likes his little term of endearment. "Yup, we sure are!" She gave a sharp salute to prove it and held open the door, "Let's go!"
