#{Bear Prince and Honey Rabbit;; Dustine x Nessa}

Heavy boots land on the salt crusted wood of the dock, a weathered hand reaching down to fetch the rutsack that had been thrown there just a moment earlier. They lifted it up, slinging it over a broad shoulder as a cheery whistle began to ring from his lips.

Ah it was good to be on land again.

The tall captain would begin to make his way through the busy crowds of dockworkers and ship boys unloading ships, dodging crates and thrown bags with the ease that only one who spent their time mostly on the sea could possess as he turns off the docks and heads into the city.

Past the merchants hawking their wares, past the peddlers trying to tempt him with shiny baubles, past the bakers and butchers filling the streets with their scents. He had one place in mind and he wasn’t about to stop. Reaching the small house, he reaches to open the door.

Will she recognize me? He wonders as the door creaks open. He had developed quite the beard in his time away, and let his hair grow long. Indeed he looked more like a pirate from a story book than the man she had last seen waving to her from the railing of his ship. Hopefully he doesn’t scare her.

“Nessa?” He calls, letting his rutsack land beside the door as he ducks into the house. “Are you home lassie?”

💍 ;w; something neattt~

Dustine took inspiration for this ring from his trips at sea. Coral is long lived and a provider of shelter for many sea creatures, much as Nessa acts as his shelter upon land and their love is everlasting.

“I wish we weren’t out in public…” she whispers to Dustine quietly in the middle of the street

Dustine blinks and casts his eyes down towards her, arm pulling her closer to his body as he gives her a slight mischevious smile.

"Oh?" He muses and bends, nosing her hair with a deep chuckle. "That makes two of us...I hope you don't care about the panties you're wearing because...well...my teeth tend to tear fabric."

He stands tall then as if he wasn't just whispering filth to her, but shifts his arm to lift her up onto his forearm to carry her.

❝  it’s a relaxation to dance with you,Dustine.  ❞

“Good” He twirls her around, lifting her up slightly as he did so so her skirt flared in the air before setting her down again. “Dances shouldn’t be stressful after all.”

[ 𝐒𝐂𝐀𝐑 ] ― sender traces a scar on receiver’s body ( I reckon Dustine does have a scar or two ovo )

"Hm?"

Dustine looks over, water still dripping from his hair as he peeked at Nessa tracing a scar along his side. The scar itself only appeared after a hot bath, when the skin was reddened enough that the sensative silvery flesh stood out.

"What are ya doing m' love?" He asks with a small smile, letting the towel rest on his head as one hand lowered to stroke her hair. He looks at the spot she touched. "Ah...that ting. I suppose you nevah saw it proper before. Ya mustn't worry, it's an old one from before tha sea."

“You haven’t been getting very much to eat, have you?” for the bear prince he must eat well!

“Ah, is it that noticeable? I should’ve known you would have realized haha” Dustine rubs the back of his head with a sheepish smile. Rations had grown a bit tight on his last journey and he cut back on his own to make sure his sailors were still eating properly.

“Maybe I was just saving up to eat all the delicious food you make me?”
