Only as White Night had finished her meal, she heard the ship's horn blowing in a very maritime way and realised they were on their way.
She darted to the... deck to watch the coastline fading away in the horizon. It was the twilight hour, between day and night and White Night felt an ominous shudder.
"I probably ate too much.. which might not be the best combination aboard a ship that is crossing the ocean.", she sighed.
Leaning on the well, the railing with one hand she twirled her umbrella absent-mindedly in the other. It was such a convenient travelling companion... especially the fact that it kept her dry in the appalling English weather was a real benefit.
As more people had gathered on the deck, White Night lit up in a smile.
"So who knows any games?"

TT sauntered towards the group on the deck, just in time for to hear Lady White Night ask if anyone knew any games.
As TT did not, and also did not know many of the people on the deck either, she keep quiet... and merely looked out over the rail, and the dark waters below. The ship was moving steadily...

" I know that that runt of a Edward is here somewhere." Roy said as he ran up onto the ship. "I'm just glad that I made it on time." Behind him was Riza Hawkeye carring a large brown case. "Hurry up I need to insult Edward about his height." Roy grumbly stated as the pair entered the ship.

Damon turned and saw that leopard-coat-man had arrived and was sporting a lovely shade of eyeliner. Hearing him comment about the uncleanliness of the water, Damon replied, "Well, in theory it's supposed to be clean. The most beautiful places in the world have lovely water. The ugliest ones have...mud."
Realizing that he wasn't sure if he had ever heard the man's name (he remembered nothing after waving at him), he questioned, "Is your name Richey? Richard? Ricardo? Something like that?"

"It's Richard. Or Rich, I guess -- I'm not, though, don't get any ideas -- whatever you like." Richard shrugged. "Beauty's subjective though. Everyone's vision of beauty's different, though honestly I think it's all a lie and everything's ugly..."
He trailed off.
"And are you suggesting that mud's not nice? What about Wales?"

Damon immediately backpedaled. "Oh, no, Richard! Wales is a lovely country! My parents visited there once as a vacation from their desk jobs in England. They loved it, despite all of the mud..." Damon trailed off, realizing that he was getting into deeper trouble.
"Erm, ahh, how about a drink?" he said hastily. "I do love my grape juice so."

Richard chose not to comment on Damon's family history. He'd promised himself 16 years ago he'd stop getting angry about political issues like that, and he wasn't going to change that for some guy on a boat.
Wasn't there some wretched song about being on a boat? That was a bigger crisis, at any rate.
"Lovely, yeah. So why's it grape juice and not, say, apple juice?"

Kit was having a lovely time in the Wheel House ordering around the crew and smoking the pipe that she had mysteriously acquired upon her captainship (rofl, get it? captain ship?), when Yusuf burst into the room.
Kit gaped, "<i>Yusuf</i>. This here is for crew and captainships only! What are you doing here?"
Yusuf, still catching his breath, held up a finger. He must've had a really long run getting here. And that was when Kit's stomach dropped.
"NO. NO ONE HAS DIED. RIGHT? NO ONE HAS DIED, YUSUF. TELL ME NO HAS DIED."
Yusuf was silent.
"SOMEONE'S DIED, HAVEN'T THEY, YUSUF?"
Yusuf nods.
Kit storms out of the Wheel House with frustrated spin of the wheel that caused the ship to careen to the side.

"Ahh, grape juice," Damon sighed happily. "It's the nearest alternative to blood that I could find. At least, the color had the same richness to it. Cranberry juice was too bitter for my taste, even though it's faily red. And tomato juice...it's too vegetable-y."
Damon gasped as the ship suddenly lurched to one side. "What just happened?" he asked frantically, clutching onto the rail for dear life.

The sight before them a terrible one, indeed.
"We have got to hide this from the wizarding world." Kit says, and Yusuf only nods.
In front of them was the body of Narcissa Malfoy in the middle of the kitchen, with a small pool of blood emerging from her back.
The was nothing else in the pristine kitchen to be found by the counter of flour that someone had out.
Kit pointed to the pile and looked at Yusuf in a questioning, "That your mess?"
Yusuf shakes his head, "Found it coming in this morning."
Just then, Pliff enters the kitchen, "Ma'am, I was cleaning the cabins when I found the --- oh my!" Pliff paused at the sight of Mrs. Malfoy on the floor.
Kit raised an eyebrow, "We've got a body, yes. What were you saying?"
"Um... well, now you have two."
"Are you saying there's another one?"
Pliff nods, "Mr. Malfoy?"
"The couple goes first," Kit mumbled. "Of course."
The maid shifted, "I found him alone in his room. I knocked but no one answered so I let myself in to clean and I saw him alone on the bed with his," Pliff paused and gestured a slicing of the neck motion.
"Are you saying that he was dead or that he had been literally cut at the throat?"
"The second, ma'am."
Kit sighed, "Hallelujah. WHERE ARE MY DETECTIVES?"

Yawning, Fuschia Rivers awoke, stomach growling.
As determined as she was to make friends, being hungry was the only thing that would stop her from doing just that.
Hence her journey into the kitchen where the sight of Narcissa and Lucius Malfoy's corpses stopped her.
"Oh. My God."
Appetite forgotten, she remained frozen, unable to think of anything proper to say.

Damon hear Kit's cry of "SOMEONE'S DIED, HAVEN'T THEY, YUSUF?" and inhaled sharply, growing even more pale than usual. He ran across the deck, rapid thoughts running through his mind. He followed the sound of the voices, which led him to the kitchen.
He burst through the door, breathing heavily. "What happened? Is everyone..." He stopped in mid sentence when he saw Narcissa's body.
"Not...not Narcissa! She and her husband were the first people to greet me!" Damon gasped. "Is Mr. Malfoy alright?"

"Oh no!" Sparkle let out a high pitched scream. "Not again!" She turned to Kit, who looked only slightly stressed out. "I thought you had this under control?"
Sparkle sighed, and tried not to look at the lifeless body of Mrs Malfoy. "Now I can't even cross the kitchen to get new cookies.." she pouted. "Blood leaves terrible stains you know.."

At the sound of other voices, Fuschia lapsed into reality.
"Oh. Hello everybody. I seemed to have lost my appetite."
She managed weakly, "I didn't even get to introduce myself to them."

Marie had slipped away from the group to see to her bags herself, after finding her dear sheep Louis munching away at some grass on deck. Putting aside her curiosity about why on earth there was a patch of grass on a boat, and hoping that the swaying of said boat in the water would not make her ill, she didn't happen upon anybody on her way to Mrs. Lovett's room.
As unfortunate situations went, hers ranked up there with being held prisoner by the rebels, and she should know.
Crammed into the tiny space had to be all of Mrs. Lovett's belongings, including (but not limited to) a huge array of knives and far too much black to be accommodating on a cruise ship. With a resigned sigh, and channeling her worker ancestors, Marie put herself to the task of transforming the bedroom into something livable, if not entirely cozy. After a while, during which she'd acquired new blisters, she turned to find Louis in the doorway, his snout reddened by what looked like paint.
"Now what have you done?"
Scolding him, she went to the hall and followed his red footprints, expecting to find an overturned paint bucket and an angry painter that she'd have to apologize to. What she found instead, was Mr. Malfoy, in bed with was most certainly not red paint all over him.
With a shriek, Marie fainted for the second time in as many days on the dreadful cruise.

Making her way to the kitchen - after all it was about high time for the next meal - White Night noticed the elevated voices emerging from the kitchen before she saw the small gathering.
"Someone died from having eaten too much from the buffet??? I knew it had to happ-"
White Night meandered her way through the crowd but froze on the spot as she was about to step on blood on the floor.
"Ughh, what's going on?"
Her gaze fell upon the bloody mess on the floor and she turned away in disgust.
"Why not just push unwanted people overboard.. there is plenty of water around... eww"
