Got a head full of spiders & a heart that isn't here
Vesper grunts, the sound low and unamused, watching the creature stiffen beneath the spreading frost. "Yeah," he mutters, shifting his grip on the grocery bag under his arm. "It gets in everything and the worst is cleanin’ it up just for it to wander back like it’s payin’ rent." His tone is drier than the captain’s coat, the faintest twist of humour hiding in the irritation.
He flicks his fingers, shadows curling up the edge of the dock like smoke tasting the air, as if to make sure the frozen mass stays put. The hiss of rain grows heavier, drumming against the planks and the hood drawn over his head.
At Jack’s reasoning, Vesper snorts softly at the irony. He tips his head toward the row of crooked lamps down the dock, where the shapes of awnings and crates mark the start of the market fringe. "There’s a bar just past there that's got decent rum."
The mud twitches again at the edge of his vision, reshaping with a wet, reluctant sound. Vesper sucks in a slow breath over his teeth, side-eyeing the thing. "I reckon we can probably outpace it. Hopefully, it'll find someone else to bother in the meantime."
