I'm outside, um, near the library.
[Actually, she's outside and near one of the lifeboats. She's examining a calico 'sail,' holding it out in front of her, when she hears a step. She looks up, and there is Xanth. For just a moment, she's nervous.
But this is important. She glances out at the ocean - so much closer here - and then back at Xanth.]

[Xanth looks at the library first, but she's not there, so he keeps looking. Kairi's not hard to find.
He lifts a hand in greeting, and then he looks down at the sail Kairi's looking over. His smile turns to a thoughtful frown.]
W--Well, yeah, I mean-- i-it could be. It, uh, d-depends on the s-size of th-the ship or boat you'll b-be using, a-and then th-the ropes and-- and the knots a-and the way the sail is t-tied up matters too...

[One hand goes to the scallop shell necklace, while the other hovers over her belt pocket, able to feel the solid presence of just such a charm. But she can't give it to him, not yet. She needs to explain first.]

[Jinx heard a good part of this and he can say that he feels bad for little Snowtop. It looks as if Kairi broke him; shattered his tiny little glass heart.
He's going to wait until one of them leaves. He really needs to comfort that kid.]

[Nervousness. Nervousness is setting in. He heard that hesitation in her voice, but this is Kairi. He always enjoys seeing her.]
Uh, s-sure. I'll be there i--in a s-second. Uh, m-minute, I--I mean.
[And he's off to deck nine.]

Hey...
