[ He chuckles again. Sure, Finnick has it bad for Levi which leads to a bit more giggling than usual, but Levi's also just very funny in his deadpan way. ]
I probably could. I might inquire with them about doing it on the side. Wouldn't want it to interfere with my work at the shop, though.
[ Finnick smiles softly. It's sweet that Levi wants to keep him around but wouldn't ultimately want to hold him back from pursuing something he's passionate about. ]
I doubt you'll be rid of me that easily. I really enjoy being at the shop. It makes me happy.
[ Not just because of Levi either, though that helps. He also likes Erwin a lot, likes the general atmosphere, the social interaction, and likes being helpful and useful. ]
Besides, the guy who runs those docks is weird. Weirder than you, if you can believe it.
[ No point in making people feel like they're obligated to stay, especially here. But Levi has also always been a proponent of free choice. Still, hearing that he can give someone a place that makes them happy to be...that hits in his chest.
He takes a soft breath, holds onto that feeling a moment. There's a small hint of emotion in his voice, if Finnick listens for it. ]
Good...I'm glad. [ Really glad. ]
[ He'll click his tongue at that last bit, though. ]

Yeah...would be sad to lose you to goblins and fish.
But if that ends up being what you'd rather do instead, well...that'd be fine, as long as it's what you want.
[ There's only sincerity in what he says; no judgment, just a plain wish for Finnick to do what makes him happy. ]
Would have to find other ways to see you, though.

Ch. Guess I'll have to do something about that.
[ Sir?? ]

[Finnick turns on his stomach again. Why does he feel like such a teenager?]
no subject
Might have to feed him to the mermaids.

Taking care of the competition. Nice.

[ Two birds, one stone? ]

This'll be our plan B. But for now, I'll keep swabbing your decks sparkly-clean.
no subject
Glad to hear it.
[ A few heartbeats of pause. ]
Should let you get some sleep...
no subject
Mmm. Yeah, I'll let you go. I'll be at the shop tomorrow, so I'll see you then.

[ ...a touch softer: ]
Goodnight.

[With a soft smile, he hangs up, then promptly buries his face in a pillow.]
