Liesel could detect Tobias's minor suspicion, and in all honesty he had a right to be, considering that she'd spent more time with Sebastian than with him. It would make more sense if she had asked the younger of the two for help - but she hadn't, and she still wasn't entirely sure why.
Liesel found it hard not to fidget under his stare, which was attentive and almost amused. She wanted to be taken seriously for once, she wanted to be able to fight back, and maybe with the right training she could. She still wanted to get home, but that priority had slowly started to fade towards the back of her mind.
"What better person to ask than the captain?" She raised her eyebrows, but the words sounded strange on her tongue. Almost too thought out, planned. And maybe they were, maybe she had thought about asking Tobias to teach her how to use a weapon, was that wrong? It shouldn't have been, but Liesel felt guilty. It was as if she was deliberately not asking Sebastian, but surely he wouldn't care, right? She didn't see any reason why he would.
Tobias was now mere inches away, making Liesel just slightly nervous. She wondered if pirates simply didn't have any concept of personal space, or if perhaps they just didn't care.
Trying not to be too obvious, Liesel forced herself to wait casually as he examined her blade. She couldn't help be look somewhat anxious while awaiting his answer, her mind buzzed with impatient questions. Was something wrong with the weapon? Would he help her? Should she have asked Sebastian?
Inhaling a shaky intake of air, the young women crossed her arms with just the slightest edge of agitation. She wasn't known for her patience. "Are you going to help me?" She had seen Tobias's smug little smirk, and Liesel felt as if he was going to tease her once more, so she held out her hand. "If you aren't than I'd like that back."

Tobias Serafin Again, Tobias' eyes slightly narrowed in suspicion. Confidence seemed to almost radiate from the previously timid and pusillanimous girl. She exuded self-assurance, and honestly, Tobias could not be more amused. As her face contorted with obvious irritation, the man raised an eyebrow and tilted his head ever-so-slightly to the left. His smirk began to tug at his lips once more as it broadened into a full grin, and he let out a soft snicker. "Good point," the captain conceded as he continued to look over the blade.
She had wanted him to help her, had chosen him over everyone else. She chose him over his own brother, a man whom she likely knew much better than he, so who was he to deny her request? As she continued to speak, he found himself oddly impressed by her spunk. His cerulean irises flicked upward, and he met her pale gaze once more almost challengingly. A teasing note resinated in his normally-intense stare, but after a moment, he nodded.
"I will help you, if there's something in it for me."
Again he raised an eyebrow, as if to wordlessly ask for something in return for his help before he returned the sword to her scabbard. Once it slid and clicked into place, he slowly took a couple steps backward, away from Liesel. He then withdrew his own weapon from its holster, and in the blink of an eye, he assumed a comfortable stance.
"So," he prodded, "what are you willing to do for me in return for my invaluable instruction?"

Liesel blinked, she hadn't thought about that. No, she most certainly hadn't expected to be asked for something in return. It left her a little red in the face and at a loss for words, as she realized that Tobias was quite serious.
"I don't know..." She hesitated, crossing her arms. You could tell she was trying to think, hurriedly trying to come up with something. They'd already taken everything of worth from her home; all the nice clothes, jewels, furniture, everything. She had nothing left to give.
Liesel slowly withdrew her own sword a few seconds after Tobias did, mimicking his movements almost exactly. A soft coastal breeze lifted her light blonde hair and made the the heavy ship creak beneath her feet. "What is it that you want?" She asked the question with one an eyebrow arched, turning her face just slightly to glance out over the water towards the setting sun.
As she let her eyes flicker back towards Tobias, she couldn't help but wonder if Sebastian would have asked for something in return for teaching her; after all, he had helped her with the wound on her arm without asking for anything. Liesel chewed on her lip apprehensively, all the while dreading his answer.

Tobias Serafin That reaction was all he had desired. The blush that rose to her cheeks, her apprehensive fidgeting, and her stammering responses were all entertainment enough. He did not want anything from her in return. Not really, anyway. All he had wanted was to see her reaction, and what a priceless one it was. Honestly, he wouldn't trade seeing that for anything. It was all quite amusing to the captain. He allowed himself to study her countenance once more, and he found himself trying to memorize everything about her expression. She was different, unique, and needless to say, he was quite intrigued.
His trademark smirk returned and took its normal place in his features, and after a moment, he returned his sword to his scabbard. Lacing his fingers together behind his back, he slowly stepped forward and made his way around Liesel so that he stood directly behind her. His warm breath likely tickled her skin and contrasted greatly against the crisp, autumn air. But his breath was fresh, as if he'd chewed a sprig of mint. And the air..well, its scent stood saturated with sea salt.
"The first thing I'm going to teach you is how to hold your sword," he stated, pulling Liesel's weapon out of its holster. He allowed his chin to barely rest upon her shoulder as he took her hand and placed it delicately on the hilt before wrapping her fingers around the handle. Only then did he actually let go of her hand..grudgingly. "That's it," he murmured softly, "now, remember to hold it steady."
He stayed exactly where he was, not bothering to move for a few moments more. When he finally did decide to return to his original position, he noticed his brother standing a few yards away from Liesel. Her back was to him, so that would have explained why he had not noticed him until now. And honestly, he wished that he had not seen Sebastian at all.
His brother's expression contorted into something greater than simple irritation, and irritation would have been something that perhaps Tobias could have understood. After all, Liesel had chosen to come to him for help with fighting instead of going to Sebastian. But his brother's expression appeared to be more..ominous. It was not quite rage, but Tobias could tell that his brother was not simply agitated. And an angry Sebastian was a frightening Sebastian, someone whom Tobias usually attempted to avoid.
The elder brother's expression noticeably darkened as Sebastian turned and walked back in the direction from which he came. No longer did Tobias seem jovial and lighthearted. No, rather it was as if a bleak storm cloud had settled over him quite suddenly.

It was impossible not to feel Tobias's breath tickling her skin, it was warm and fresh. Liesel's eyes blinked closed for the briefest of moments as she felt his presence so near, it was almost nice.
She heard his voice, a murmur in her ear; chin resting on her shoulder ever so lightly, guiding her hand to the hilt of the sword. Her heartbeat seemed to have sped up and then slowed, as she felt the lull of the ship and Tobias's hand against her's.
It was a slight disappointment when his hand slid away and when he eventually stepped back. And only then had she noticed the smile that had been playing across her lips. It faded quickly, morphing into something more serious as she directed her concentration towards the blade now gripped in her hand. Somehow, in a distracted sort of way, she observed that the weapon needed to be wiped clean.
"I can hold it, teach me how to use it." Her voice was demanding, as it was ambitious, with an almost excited glint in her blue eyes.
But something change. Just as Liesel was about to say something more, she felt it. Her eyes flickered to Tobias's face, only to find that his gaze was directed towards something behind her. She swiveled her head just in time to catch a glimpse of Sebastian's face, which struck her as incredibly strange. Was he spying on them? His expression was contorted into something not exactly angry, but a lot deeper than annoyance or agitation. It caused her to freeze in place, as she felt that it had something to do with her. It made the mood darken noticeably, and she couldn't help but look away.
"Well." Liesel sighed, raising her eyebrows while giving Tobias a sidelong glance. She straightened her posture once more. "Shall we continue?"
