[jacob w.c.]

WHAT A PRIVILEGE IT IS TO LOVE — Jacob hadn't even been sure he would even do this. Pincher's death had taken a toll on the husky and he'd barely even come out of his room for the past few days. His eating had been erratic, going between eating barely anything to eating large amount of pasta and cookies and basked good in general. In the end, though, he decided  that it was best for him, and for Snowbound, if he tried to move on and connect with all those that were still here. Besides, it'd do him well to visit with Goldie for a little bit. He was sure she was still distraught over the whole situation and it wouldn't be good to just let her be sad alone. So, he'd brought along more cookies and recipes for her to try and settled down at the border. "Hello? 'S anyone 'ere?" the man called, hopeful that someone would arrive soon. His legs had been bothering him more than usual and he didn't care to stay longer than he needed to.  —A GREAT HONOR TO HOLD YOU UP

REIGN HAVOC FROM ABOVE !

CAESAR CIPHER. MALE. THE TYPHOON. PRIVATEER.

"Big surprise, I am." Caesar responded dryly as he came over, the fur on his side plastered in dried blood and his body limping as he walked. It showed how weak he was and quite truthfully, he didn't want Jacob to see him like this. But interacting with the Snowbound Chief might make him seem more friendlier, right? That's what Pincher said he needed to work on. "Whaddya need?" He sounded tired and truthfully? He was. He was mostly tired of all the drama that he caused, even if they had been fun at the time. Causing drama was fun, feeling the heat of his actions, however, was not.

The panther is next to trot over, regarding Jacob with a critical eye. His signature smirk adorns his face as he takes a seat. "Yo, lover boy," he greets him, unsure if he knows that Pincher is back or not. Either way he'll just keep quiet about it. It would pay off to see his reaction once the doberman got his ass over here.

ROXANNE ROUX— CREWMATE— THE TYPHOON

[div style="width: 51%; text-align: justify; font-size: 10pt; letter-spacing: 0px; font-family: georgia; color: #ff748c;"]Wow, someone had fucked over Lemonhead pretty hard since he seemed tired but she didn't comment on how tired he was instead greeting [b]"Heya Lemonhead. Hey Greed," The slightly skinny Siamese would stand next to the panther only to smile at Jacob with both of her ears angled forward "Hey Jakie." She would sit down curling her tail over her forepaws and her baby crocodile was resting on top of her head already hissing at Greed, she didn't know why nobody told Jacob that Pincher was back before she pieced it together and that,mischievous twinkle would appear in her eye.

[PINCHER]

To say that he had not missed Jacob was an understatement. He had longed to see the husky ever since he had arrived back to the island, soaked with the sea salt that had drenched him for four days straight. He had stumbled out with intentions of seeing his family as well as someone that he longed to join his family. Not that Pincher wanted to get married right off the bat since crawling out of depths of cold hell, but he did have thoughts of spending his life with the kind-hearted chief. The way he looked at him and treated him, listening to him and actually paying attention...it was different from what he had experienced when he had fallen for other faces in the past. They had only sought out his intimidating appearance, allured by the excitement of having a "bad boy" by their side. His first wife perhaps saw him that way even when she had told him that she loved him with all her heart. It didn't surprise him since he remembered she had packed her things and left him without a goodbye or a reason why. Had it torn the heart that old Pincher had? Yes. Was there anything left in his chest to offer? Perhaps. If there was someone that could pull that out of him, it was Jacob.

He had contemplated on how to see his love again. Things had been rather tense before he had collapsed from bloodloss onto the shore of the bay. The last time he had seen him, it had been over some conflict between their clans due to Caesar, his temporarily demoted Officer. He hoped that when he had returned that the yellow savannah would have managed to create an event but it seemed that had not happened since when he arrived, the tensions that had lurked between borders had infiltrated his crew. He had noticed the various fresh wounds from fights and honestly was not fond of the idea that there was cold blood within his own ranks and he hoped that he would find a way to settle any conflicts down. So he had gone back to work, trying to make up for what he had been missing while considered "dead" to the world. The next day his return, he had placed a meeting with a new ranking and other types of announcements before jumping back to the planning he had. So, he had been swamped and unable to see Jacob in the tundra valley that the male lived in.

But it seemed now was his chance to see the blue eyed canine again as Pincher was nearby when he caught the soft and sweet voice of the healer. He was currently gnawing on some coconut chunks, the ivory sweet meat shredded by his multiple rows of shark-like teeth as he laid under the shade of a towering palm tree. He glanced up from his spot, cool magnetic blue gaze locking onto the three crewmates and the figure of Jacob. His eyes widened as he stumbled to his coffee brown paws, his short tail wagging furiously as he practically sprinted towards them with his lean legs hardly touching the ground. As he finally reached them, he barked "Jacob! Jake!" His low rumbling voice was now filled with excitement as he skidded to a halt behind the figures of his crewmates as he pushed forward to greet the male, a blossoming grin tracing his muzzle.

[jacob w.c.]

WHAT A PRIVILEGE IT IS TO LOVE — Jacob felt his heart sink when the first face he saw was Caesar. He wasn't quite sure what he'd been expecting but he certainly didn't care to see the yellow cat right now. He didn't feel bad about punching him but he supposed he ought to be civil now. Thankfully, Roxanne and Greed also soon approached and he offered them light smiles, although that faltered when he heard Greed refer to him as 'lover boy'. It didn't take much to figure out what that referred to but Pincher and Jacob had never dated and, even if they had, that was a rather sensitive topic to bring up currently. "Um, hi. 'S nice ta' see ya'll. Anyway, I jus' came ta' give ya' this invitation ta' a big feast with games n' stuff for us all ta' celebrate the new territory n' everythin' now that Snowbound's settled in," he explained, exhaustion clear in his tone. He'd barely slept since he heard about Pincher's death. He wasn't sure who to turn to anymore or who to talk to. For three months, he'd told Pinch everything. He had people who loved him and who he loved in Snowbound but it wasn't like he could tell Izuku or Harrison about his problems.

He thought he caught a scent of coconut and cigarette smoke but he ignored it. Such smells had plagued him since Pincher's death, mingling with the smoke that constantly plagued his mind as if to taunt him in some awful way. He heard that the first thing often forgotten was someone voice or scent but Jacob never forgot anything because he saw it every night. When he was alone, he could hear the voices of his Ma and Pa begging him to save them somehow. Sometimes he would see Jersey or his Babbo, who insisted they were in some sort of terrible peril. For the last week or so, Pincher had been added to that list. Then he heard his voice and Jacob still did his best not to look but he couldn't help it. He sounded so happy. He never sounded happy, not in the nightmares or hallucinations. Then he began pushing through the other pirates and Jacob's eyes widened, a gasp seizing his chest and tears pricking his eyes as he realized this was all real. Pincher was here, standing in front of him. This wasn't a nightmare or hallucination or a trick of his own mind. This was Deniz.

"Pinch! Oh my- oh gosh-" His words were barely breathed out before he ran forward and, without hesitation, attempted to give the other man a kiss. The usual caution he put towards showing Pincher any affection in front of anyone had apparently left as he pressed himself against the doberman in a tight hug. "What- I don' understand-" He could barely catch his breath enough to force words out as tears rolled down his cheeks. He wrapped his paws around him, a wide smile on his face as he tried to calm hiw own breathing so he could speak. "Oh, Deniz," he spoke softly enough that none of the others should be able to hear him as he buried his head against the captain's chest. —A GREAT HONOR TO HOLD YOU UP

she approached just a little after her papa, quietly and distantly following him as he walked about. she watched him carefully to be sure that he was okay. she couldn't let anything bad happen to him again. and while she was less worried since it was daytime, she still needed to be sure. besides, she liked spending time with him. he was her papa and he meant so much to her, so of course she would like being around him.

the gathering group of her crewmates caught her attention first as her papa got closer, but she would realize that mister jacob was here not long after, her ears perking upward at his voice. he was talking about some event. she wondered if he knew that papa returned. had anyone told him? based on his voice, it didn't seem so. she was a little nervous now, as well as a little guilty. how would he react? she felt bad he was left in the dark for longer than them. he could be happier now. her mistake of sleeping wouldn't be so bad anymore, because he was back. and she wasn't gonna let it happen again.

the injured girl decided to let her papa approach him without saying anything, walking up against roxanne. her head hurt again, so she let herself relax tiredly near the female, watching the two with interest. mister jacob's reaction made her head perk upward, her eyes widening at the kiss. it didn't surprise her completely, as she understood how close the two were, but it did fill her with a bit of happiness. mister jacob loved her papa. she gave a soft smile to them, her tail twitching back and forth as she held back a giggle.

[ROXANNE R.]

✧*:･ﾟ Making a fake gagging noise, the chocolate point would roll her only visible eye with a soft snort happy that both Jacob and Pincher were reunited. She wouldn't even admit it but she was glad that Jake and Pinch somehow completed one another and well, they just brought out the best in one another. She took a deep breath glancing over at Roxie with a mischievous smile before she would call out to her brother "When's the wedding, baby bro?" Though she was joking and lightly hoping that it was somewhat soon, she had seen enough kisses and hugs between the dog that she expected some new nieces and nephew at some point.

[PINCHER]

Pincher couldn't believe he was able to see Jacob again and despite looking a little worn and tired, he was breathtaking as always. His heart would've raced inside his chest but it was no longer with him, instead it was beating alongside the waves that carried it wherever the hell that was. Pincher would embrace the male with outstretched paws but had not expected Jacob to come full force as his lips connected with his causing the tall canine's vibrant sapphire blue eyes to widen with shock. He stared a bit before finally relaxing, deciding he no longer cared as he simply closed his eyes and pulled the husky closer though he didn't notice they were stumbling back and it caused Pincher to stumble to the sand. A small yelp of surprised slipped out of his jaws but a soft chuckle rumbled in his throat as he simply continued to embrace the male with a large chill rolling down his spine when he heard him say his real name. Small tears began to blossom from the corners of his eyes but Pincher blinked them away as aimed to softly rub his nose with Jacob's before glancing towards the others that surrounded the two.

He realized he must look rather childish as the Captain felt a light blush begin to form under his skin on his fur but he cleared his throat, standing up from his fallen state and press gently against the Snowbounder to help him get up since Pincher knew Jacob had leg problems. He remained by the male's side with his muscular form tense as he noticed Goldie watching, cool blue gaze fluttering to the ground as he hoped that his daughter was alright with him moving on from her mother. He then heard the gagging from the siamese which he knew was the one and only Roxanne. He rolled his gaze at her when she questioned when their wedding was happening and he snorted "When you learn to share your icecream, Roxxie." He flashed a sly devilish grin towards before clearing his throat and adding "By the way, anyone is invited to the Snowbound event. Feel free to go but don't start any shit, alright?" All he wanted now was to spend time with Jacob as he went to press his muzzle softly against the other male's cheek.
