[If one thinks about it, the two of them could probably just walk out of the situation, but again with all the blue in every direction, rowing is probably the better option. Tyki may have stamina but laziness and getting bored and tired is a whole 'nother matter. The other Tyki is on the other side, drapped backwards over the other edge with his arms just floating in the water.

It is very warm right now...] Remind me how we got here again...

[Tyki doesn't even bother to sit up as he answers.]

Cruise ship. Zombies. Sure you didn't get bit?

That's a little funny coming from you. Unless their teeth were made of Innocence, I didn't get bit.

[He pulls out a pack of cigarettes and watches the edges of it just slop downwards, soak wet.] Hrn..

[Lifts his head slightly.]

Oh? Never been caught by surprise, have you?

I wouldn't say that. There's been a few times that caught me by surprised, just not off guard.

Then again if you saw the woman I was with while I had her pinned against the door to my room that is before the zombie reached through and took her, you might've been distracted too.

Found a date or brought one? Actually, it doesn't matter.

[Fantasizing for a moment before sitting up straight and looking at the oars.]

You wouldn't have a compass on hand, would you?

Found one. It's not that hard on a ship like that.

[He spent the better part of the night with her, but she'll be forgotten now that she's dead. He looks to the oars.]

Not really... I'm sure someone is looking for us...

No. Not terribly difficult at all.

[He smiles, taking the oars in hand.]

I'm not sure if I want to wait for them. But if you see anything on the horizon or get an inspiration on which direction we should go, do give a shout.

[He looks down at the oars and if he's taking them, then Tyki's going to sit near them but let the other do the work for now, looking towards the ocean.]

Eh, follow the birds if you see any. If we got lost we can at least shoot them down and eat them.

That would be a plan. I was wondering if we would have to resort to fishing.

[Random direction is a go.]

And if you were that preoccupied when this all happened, it is a good thing you found your pants before abandoning ship.

[He's looking around the little boat the are on, giving a slight griin at his words.]

Fishing without string? Or is there something here. As for the pants, they were somewhere on the floor...I'm just that good.

[There is some rope. If it is usable for fishing, well, they won't know until they try.]

Can't catch them with your bare hands? Come now, I thought you would enjoy a good challenge.

[He chuckles.] Did you happen to grab a bottle of that champagne on the way out as well? With your skills it may be possible.

[He's digging into the bags he grabbed, pulling out a few useless things and chucking them over his shoulder into the water. No need for a dress or anything.]

Hai, hai. You're probably right. Not like we haven't fished for fish with our hands before.

I grabbed a lot on the way out. Not like the danger of the ship sinking or the zombies was any real danger.

[The dress as it goes overboard gets a look.]

I'm sure you would have looked dashing in that. Perhaps you could try it on.

[Rowing. Rowing. Rowing. And a whole lot of nothin' on the horizon.]

Yes, well, perhaps next time I'll try to be a little more resourceful. I was a little too fascinated with watching the ship sink.

[He's adding a pair of heels with that as well. Don't need that either.]

If you're so sure, why don't you try it on. We're about the same.

[He laughs, going for another bag that seems more silky.] A whole lot of screaming for nothing, but I liked it.

[Tyki disagrees, sir. He'd still like to see you in those for the amusement factor. But not enough that he'll move to recover them from the water.]

That is more your color. And I'm sure you've got a second outfit in that bag I could try on instead.

[Another...? Oh, right, you are sort of a pack rat, aren't you?] I can't argue that. I found it quite delightful as well. Though I do wonder if there are any other survivors.

[He really couldn't think of a reason to try them on either.]

Uh huh. There's a lot of clothes in here and not a lot of good things.

[Though he just found a pair of handcuffs... Interesting enough, he is a pack rat. In facility, you can't always get what you want so you take and hoard everything.] If we find any, we could always hold them under water later.

[Is all he needs is a reason? And maybe booze. To try them on, that is.

Then the handcuffs come out.]

... Did you at least get to use those last night before the rude guests arrived?

[You and your silly space station habits. Well, maybe not too silly.]

Not even going to offer them rowing the boat until we reach shore before sending them to their de----

[Thunk! Said oars just hit something very solid and very not water like.]

[It would have to be a whole lot of booze to even get him to put the dress on. He's a been a woman in facility before... so reason is valid.]

If I had know she had these, we might've. Damn.

[He snorts at that, but then grabs onto the edges of the boat and glances over the side.] If it's a water machine, I call dibs on killing the captain.

[Lovely. That is an experience they've both shared then.]

I have no idea how a water machine has anything to do with the captain of a boat mind you.

[Oh, gosh. That would be a corpse. Still no wreckage in sight. Tyki takes one of the oars out of its rowing slot and prods it.]

[He honestly tried playing with himself but it got a bit boring after an hour or so. Several females wanted to do his hair...and makeup. He went with it for an easy score with the ladies.]

Sometimes those submarines....

[He's getting distracted from the conversation now that there is a dead body] I doubt he'd have anything useful that isn't all wet.

[Well at least the body doesn't move.]

We can't be picky now, can we?

[Or at least move on its own. A dark shape forms underneath the corpse and it is pulled down farther than the light can perceive.]

[Technically it just moved even if it wasn't its own fault.]

Not in this situation. [He stares into the water then leans over the side of the boat and digs around under water, snagging the foot and jerking it back up, even if it rips.] Shark fin or calamari?

[Tyki has to lean to the side to counteract the weight of you leaning over. And yes, you do get one neatly torn apart body with a few parts leaking onto the edge of the boat.

You get a very, very disgusted look.]

No. You can't keep that in the bag.

[There is a crunching of bone below and a bump from underside the boat. But no visual signs of the monster as it is having its mid afternoon snack.]

[He's giving a very distasteful look at all that dripping mess. That's a little messy.

I don't know. If we put one in a bag and toss it over, maybe we could get a neat snack from below. I'm getting a little hungry.

[He's really curious now about that creature now.]
