The siren calls- Chapter 6

Siren Jack and Agatha’s unrequited love >:)

Ever since the two laid eyes on Empress, they were infatuated.

They each had tried swooning her in their own ways, Jack dragging Empress to show her a collection of human bones, Agatha trying to find the prettiest flowers from coral reefs that she could find.

She was just never entirely interested in that way though.

Maybe it was jealousy, or maybe it was a denial. But regardless they had learned to resent one another in their plights. Every time Jack’s attempts to flirt with empress were met with half-hearted excuses to go back to her cave by the seas, he felt Agatha was to blame. Everytime that Agatha’s gifts were put aside as her crush swam away, she felt Jack was to blame.

In spite of their resentment, they agreed to not show it in front of Empress. They knew she’d be upset knowing they bickered over her, so they assumed it was best just to not let that show.

They hadn’t even known Empress fell for another.

They were..suprised to say the least, that she came back with a lovestruck smile, usually daydreaming about something else while chatting. They both assumed that maybe their fruitless efforts had been worth it, that maybe they did something right. Anxiously though, they feared that the other had won her heart, making them bicker in secret more often.

Then came the day they learned that Empress had a lover already.

They learned of her name, of her unfortunate occupation and how they seemed to not like it, and the fact Empress was infatuated so to speak. Left them questioning their motives and contemplating for days.

"So..all that gift giving.." "All of that trying to earn her love.." "Was for nothing?" Said Agatha, shoulders slumping and gills flaring sadly.

"I guess we really did overflow our shots didnt we?" Jack chuckled trying to lighten the mood. His shoulders sumped in defeat as well.

"So, are we friends now?" Agatha said, trying not to laugh at the lidea. All that fighting just to end up rejected? Might as well.. "Fuck it, why not at this point! We did everything we could to one up each other and still got rejected for a landwalker! Besides, that statue you carved out brain coral? Genius!" Jack chuckled..

They then came to realize that day that despite being as envious as the Great Leviathan of the Sea itself...

Maybe they had a little more in common than they thought..
