The sound of the deep voice cut through the air, making Coral jump. She hadn't heard him coming and his sudden appearance brought her heart into her throat. The dark figure was more than intimidating even in the vintage ring master look. Even her hair reacted, becoming a dark blue for it's bright teal.
"I... I..." Why couldn't she think of something to say? "I'm sorry." Her eyes jetted from his face to the ground several times. Taking a deep breath, she chewed on her bottom lip. "I wasn't looking..." She wanted to just come out and ask about joining the crew, but it all sounded stupid in her head. The pure idea that they would just let her in without any experience or just because some woman and her could talk to each other in their heads.
