Twelfth Night Episode 2 - "Voyage" Day #4

Viola and Sebastian huddle together on one of the two bunks, holding each other tight. Being in the confined room, while safe from the waves washing over the deck above, did little to allay the fears swirling inside them, a crude and terrible mimicry of the storm raging around the ship. In many ways, the sheltered room below deck is the worse than being where the waves and thunder are visceral and real. The weight of the unknown - each roll of the ship, each plunge into a trough, each hurtle up the steep incline of a wave - it threatens to tear the fearful passenger apart. Each moment feels like it could be the last and there's the dread of never knowing what is coming next. Is a massive wave descending? A huge water valley? Never knowing...never knowing...and so they hold on to each other as it is all they can do.
