She's even more nippy than I thought.
The siren stared at the shadows outlined in the bars of moonlight from beneath the dock, irritated that her subtle attempt to get the human's attention had been completely ignored in the heat of their argument.
Nautalis drifted back into the shallows, listening attentively to their little dispute. She pulled herself a few more feet through the water with her hands, gripping the sand to keep herself from being shoved about by the restless waves.
She hated that Jintao was already proving her wrong. He was supposed to be a fugitive or a criminal, not a sad sap trying to get by in life and help other people who didn't deserve it. Nautalis had suspected from their talk in the tavern that he wasn't really a troublemaker. She'd been hoping for a pirate or thug- someone who was a threat to the Rebellion or someone she could manipulate to finish her mission. No, he had to go and be a lost young man caught between his own misery and the dull consciousness of this insufferable young woman.
The siren remained where she was, silent, still focused on the pair.
