Cecil wasn’t making much of an attempt to be aware of his surroundings, all these people were effectively strangers and it would be risky to get involved with them; besides, a few of them had fairly big animals and he wasn’t wanting to get muddled up in that. He was fine by himself, he had been like that for as long as he could remember which understandably wasn’t a very long time. He hadn’t been active for all that long, it had felt like a lifetime to him. With everybody minding their own business or getting in to the affairs of others, Cecil felt something strange pretty suddenly.

Looking out over the water there was something that was alerting him, something that was making him feel uneasy. There was some sort of threat off in the distance, but he didn’t recognise what it was: just because he had these internal programs that were all a part of him didn’t mean he knew what they were. He had to learn what certain alerts meant, with this one was one being one he was not familiar with at all. Frowning, he looked around to see if anybody else had noticed yet, but sure enough there was an announcement coming from somewhere. It was a fair sized wave that was travelling this way and by the announcement’s guess it was going to possibly tip the boat. That wasn’t good, there was no way he was going to be able to keep on top of the water if the boat was going to tip.

What was he supposed to do? He hadn’t needed to deal with something like this before. Almost contemplating jumping in he decided it was probably best to follow the instructions and head to his cabin to get one of these lifejacket things, however that was supposed to help him. Dashing off quickly he dodged a few of the panicked people, running off to where he had been instructed to stay if weary or whatever and made a dash to grab this lifejacket thing. Quickly entering the rather small but cozy room he found what they must had meant, looking back to the outside to see some wearing the thing. It must had been it, so quickly he grabbed it and ran out, analysing others to see how you wore it. They were all told to remain below deck, but some groups of people appeared to be quite eager to be near an emergency hatch. These must’ve been the women and children who decided to create a bit of a panic, giving him the idea to try and blend in with them so he wasn’t alone.
