Another Jump has come and gone.

[ hey, Tranquility. Lucrezia Borgia's hair falls freely down her back today and her cheeks are rosy and her lips are smiling. though if you know Lucrezia Borgia, and many do by now, you would perhaps recognize something in her smile, a twinkle in her eye which is impish. ]

I have counted more than twelve jumps, near fifteen and my days on this ship had been many yet today I come to you with a plea, Tranquility.

[ notice the faux!serious expression on her face. ]

There is a man upon this ship who had promised me a most wonderful promise many months ago and failed to see it through. I do not know if it is a regular affair in this person's world to break a promise made to a lady but I have come before you seeking justice from him so he would see it done. Duel him, pester him, chase him down at my name, if you wish it. Only bring him before me or tell him to present himself to me and be given punishment for said offense.

His name is Sirius Black. He is taller than me with dark hair and mischievous eyes and a talent in magic and he had given me his word that he will hold a Christmas upon this vessel. I do not know the months but surely not celebrating it at all is worse than trying to. My Holy Father would say the attempt is as important as the result. I trusted Sirius Black with such and here I am, months afterwards and nearly married -

[ allow her to look very pleased for a moment ]

And not a Christmas in sight. That said, I call upon my friends to deliver him to me so we may settle this matter once and for all.

Are you not consistent witness to his lack of respect? He treats women as trifles and I will not have him do that of you.

[Cesare is well aware of her anger towards him and this is one of the rare instances when he's glad for the distance between them, not because he fears her wrath but because he doesn't trust what he'll do when he's subject to it. The network allows him time to collect himself, pause and consider how best to reply, even if he knows it's not what his sister wants to hear.]

No, Sis, you are more than capable, but if he dares him to take advantage, it is something I will not countenance.

You are free to trust him, but I will not.

I love you, Sis, but when you are a man, then I will trust your judgement of them.

At times. And I will not have this discussion be on what women I have and have not met, Lucrezia.

[Of all the ammunition that Lucrezia can use to caution him, that is the one thing that does not bother him. It is the tone of his sister's voice that concerns him the most. His eyes narrow for a second and his expression becomes resolute.]

And you are welcome to. But I will not dismiss my previous knowledge and experience because my little sister wishes me to do so.

[Her reply leaves Cesare confused and troubled, very slowly realising quite what she intends. He has no reply for her and is instead dumbfounded. He runs his hand over his mouth nervously and nods, looking away. They will solve this another time.]
