sees the dog and follows it, before noticing it's owner.

surprised when Hana comes back with someone behind him. "Ah, hello!" He smiles at the stranger.

looks from the dog to it's owner. "Ah.. H'llo." She blinked bending down to pet the dog.

anyone that likes dogs can't be bad. He walks up to her, and asks, "Taking a walk around here?"

nods to him lifting up Hana scratching behind her ears. "Ja, are y' t'kin her for a w'lk?"

smiles, "Yes! She's been cooped up on our ship for too long, fresh air should do her good."

nods slightly scratching behind her ears again. "Y'er a p'rate hm?"

can't tell if she's alright with pirates or not; he can't think of what to reply. "A-Ah.. Umm...."

chuckles and kisses the dog on the head. "'ll t'ke th't as a ja." She looked at him. "D'n't w'rry, y'er am'ng fr'ends."

breathes a sigh of relief. "Ahh, you're a pirate too?" He smiles up at her, Hana seemed to like her too.

nods to him. "Mhmm. M're so.. Str'gglin r'ght now th'ugh." She nuzzled Hana. "Wh't's her n'me?"

"Struggling?" He tilts his head in confusion. "Ah, she's Hanatamago! Well, I wanted to name her Rocket Bomber... but Hana's a good name too.

chuckles slightly. "Hana is a good n'me." She fawned over the small dog. "Mhmm. L'st m' sh'p in a st'rm, m' crew too."

widens his eyes in shock, "W-What? That's... my condolences..." He suddenly hugs her tightly. "It must be sad.."

gasps not expecting the hug she leaned her head on him, she couldn't hug him back because of Hana. "Ja. Th't was a l'ng t'me ago th'ugh.."

releases her and looks up at her with teary eyes. "B-Be strong!" He can't help but feel like crying; he had to be a man and comfort her_

though!

frees one of her hands and puts it on his head kissing his cheek lightly. "'M bein str'ng. Th'nk y' th'ugh."

blushes when his cheek is kissed, he stutters a little as he replies, "Y-You can tell me if you need anything! I'll do my best to help!" He_

a determined expression on his face.

runs the hand through his hair. "Y'er swe't but 'm doin alr'ght. B'sides y'er so int'nt on doin th's, y' d'n't even kn'w m' n'me."

"You don't have to know someone to help them!" He beams at her, "Although, it's true that I don't know your name... I'm Tino! It's nice to_

meet you! What's your name, miss?"

can't help but think he is a bit cute. "Astrid Oxenstierna." She smiled a bit. "N'ce to meet y' too."

claps his hands in delight; she smiled! "See, now we know each other! Now I can help you~"

why he seems so happy at that moment. "Tino.. I d'n't need m'ch h'lp th'ugh.."

tilts his head, "That's good then!" He smiles and nods. "Would you like to join us on our walk?"

smiles a bit and nods. "Alright." She let Hana go watching the dog.

follows the path through the woods, knowing that Hana would follow. He admires the dappled sunlight falling on the forest ground and points_

out a squirrel to Astrid! "Look, it's so cute~"

chuckles. "'S j'st a sq'irrel, Tino." She enjoyed this walk with him actually.

nods, "It's still cute!" He smiles and looks up at the trees, trying to find more squirrels.

watches him as they walk, he was adorable, it shocked her really. She didn't know there were men this cute.

if Astrid is still a pirate. "Do you work on other ships now...?" He turns back to ask.

shakes her head. "I own a pub. S've for 'nother sh'p." She didn't think she could work under anyone else after being captain.

smiles, "Good luck with that! I'll come visit your pub sometime~? Where is it?"

smiles slightly at him. "I can sh'w y' l'ter if y' want?"

that Hanatamago has had enough of a walk and it wouldn't be bad to visit the pub now. "That would be nice!" He beams at her.

smiles a bit and nods. "Alr'ght, we can go wh'nev'r."
