can i be the only hope for you?
"Oh, it stays..." she raises her brows, surprised, "I was just starting to get attached."Aurelia wades forward to grasp the other end of the rope from Melita. It takes her a bit of drunk figuring and fumbling for her to manage it, but eventually the whale bone is anchored to the shrine thanks to both of their efforts. To her, it looks secure enough.
She's unaware that Ludo's shrine here is touched for luck, so maybe it's ironic when she gives the whale bone one last pat for good fortune. At Melita's declaration of having some drinks on the beach, Aurelia's more than happy to join her in that endeavor. Her lopsided smile becomes an eager grin as she says, "Absolutely! I could really go for a hot meal, too." The thought alone makes her stomach tense in anticipation.
But Aurelia's not quite ready to step off and shanty their way back to shore. She glances over at the shrine, grin subsiding, "Should we say a prayer? Or something?"
Because you're the only hope for me
