Calem liked to think he was doing a fine job settling into this new place. It’d only been a day, but no one had drowned him yet — not even Geo — and there had been no warnings of impending doom in his runes that morning. It was cozy. There were a lot of attractive crewmates wandering around. The herb growth was stellar. He could definitely make a life here.
That said, he was bored. Moving his entire life to some random ass island required making new friends; he had grown up in a coven, for fucks sake, where the whole damn place was obligated to be his friend by default. He’d never even made a friend before. He usually just got attention when he wanted it. Right now he wanted attention, and so he set off to track down some of the other kids his age for some nice attention. And maybe some mischief.
He wasn’t disappointed. The scene he came upon was chaos, and after settling beside Geo (threat to his health he damned) he took in the new guy. Cute, that one. Very cute. They were all cute. Excellent. Catching the tail end of Geo’s taunting, he grinned and proclaimed, ”Oh, are we shacking up with the new guy? Nice. I want to be stuck with him, too.”
He winked at the newcomer just to make it clear that he was hitting on him, and then added, ”I’m Calem, by the way. Dev, was it? You can call me whatever you like, Devie boy.”
