Jude
Tal calms Sohalia before Jude can which causes a pinched feeling in his chest he doesn't want to examine, but the praise that follows on its heels makes the young man smile slightly, relieved to have backup on his opinion. When his own feet begin to sink he goes still as well, though it's more of a possum response than being resigned to his fate or other, more experienced reasons behind Tal's motionless choice.
Boreal swans down gracefully, and Jude fumbles the catch a little but manages to hold on without dropping the rope that she deposits from above. Wrapping it around his forearm for extra support, he looks to Boreal again, wondering if she intended to help ferry the other end over to Tal in the same way. "What will we use for leverage?" he murmurs aloud, though it's mostly to himself as he eyes their surroundings. His initial plan had been to use his own body weight to help pull Tal to solid land, but now that they're both entrapped he's at a bit of a loss.

I wish you a kinder sea even if you do not sail with me
