Coraline bit her upper lip as she looked around her. There wasn't really a good place to focus on. Beatrice was... not in any... particular fixed location.
"Uh... can we... not burn? The boat? It's a nice boat."
"It's a ship," Tychon scolded, "It's literally in the name: air-ship."
Was that really important right now?!
The spirit seemed to hesitate... flitting about her like a fairy...
It didn't seem unhappy, though... It was more like it was... excited?
⊰ no burn? ⊱
Coraline laughed nervously, "I'd really... like for the ship to land safely-- you know, with all the passengers still alive?"
⊰ gone ⊱
⊰ nikandros gone ⊱
⊰ no friend ⊱
"Aww..." Coraline pursed her lips... She sounded lonely, "You know me, though!"
⊰ you are all we know ⊱
⊰ no friend ⊱
⊰ you . friend? ⊱
The spirit's innocence made Coraline smile from the heart, "Of course, I'll be your friend. My name is Coraline!"
