[ when the feed begins, there's a teacup on a desk, a lump of fabric in the teacup, and a tiny arm snaking back into the fabric. for a moment, there's nothing more, but then a familiar, blue-eyed face is peeking out. the wide eyes are red-rimmed, probably because he's been curled up in the cup crying off and on since the pirates were all killed. he's a tender-hearted little thing, all right?

lute sniffles, rubbing the back of his wrist over his eyes, his other hand tightening the makeshift blanket around himself. ] I-- I guess that's how big people do things. [ he slumps down in the cup, dragging the blanket over his head to hide. ] .. I-- want to be useful. People were fighting, and people got hurt, and people died, and I couldn't do anything-- But I guess it's kind of stupid to be upset about the way you were born.

[ a long pause, then, more quietly: ] .. What if something happens like this again? We're not all going to keep yelling at one another about it, are we?

[Firo stares stares blankly at the teacup and the person in it, then shrugs and dismisses it as the ship being weird again. Besides, the guy's distress is more important.]

They probably are gonna keep yellin' about it--that's what people do. There's not a whole lot you can do about that...but there's gotta be a way for you to help with the other stuff if that's what you want. For next time.

..Big people can do a lot of things.
[ he understands that fairly well. but someone smaller than him -- that's..well that's really rare, ok. ]

I know it isn't much comfort but, regardless of what happens, the people here tend to weather through it. However tall they are.

Sometimes there isn't anything to be done. Not everything can be prevented. Regardless of how big or small you are.

[There's little sympathy on Heine's part but that's just how it is.]

Size has nothing to do with it. You wanna learn how to fight ask someone. Don't like it? Stay out of the way until it's over.

I have no idea what's going to happen in the future, but - [he sighs. well.] If there's anything we can do for you, don't hesitate to let us know. Or let me know.
