Qualities
Captain
Fair but troubled.
Loyal, and deeply invested in the lives and well being of her crew. Captain has come to mean so many more things than authority, to Jo and all the Sirens.
Partner
Passionate and unguarded.
Too often, sex came before trust. With the Sirens, they came hand in hand. Jo has a high appetite for physical affection and sex, and as such the crew who stay have matched that. It took years for Jo to be comfortable calling anything- even sexual- more than friendship.
Parent
Capable but uncertain.
When Jo was pregnant with Tempest, every thought was turned to whether they could do motherhood justice. In practice, it’s closer to Captaining than they could have imagined. Every parenthood role has been shared with the Sirens, and Jo couldn’t imagine it any other way.
Friend
Devoted.
Anyone lucky enough to call Captain Josie a friend is also lucky enough to know the loyalty of their crew. It’s not an easy title to earn, but once cemented it takes deliberate chipping away to damage. Jo is generous, dedicated, and going to stand with you when the firing starts.
