but if you're broken
Aurelia turns to him with a shimmer of amusement in her gaze at the sound of his scoff, letting go of the idea of finding Mildew out here - for the moment. She follows his gaze further, further out into the sea, where she suddenly feels blind. Her shoulders sink down a little and she gets this embarrassed, wiggly little smile on her face. "Ah, I sea that now," she smirks suddenly, using her elbow to jab him a little in the side, "get it?" She holds onto the harpoon for now. Maybe she'll keep it as a trusty little souvenir. But she does lower it and step up onto a rock that's peering up out of the shallows to better scan the wreckages.
"Is that why you brought us here, then?" She asks without looking at him, "Hoping to scavenge some of the ships? Oh-" She hops down from the rock, plunging her feet into the water and making an effort to wade through the waist-high waves. "-Maybe there's some long-forgotten treasure down there. Betcha I'll find it first!" She pauses and glances back towards him, eyeing him with a more excited grin to see if he'll accept the challenge.
