Making their way through the ship, Rowan could feel the heaviness of the accident; how terrified everyone aboard might have been to hear the scream of the boat as it collided with the sediment. She was about to turn to him offering her condolences for the crash; knowing it might have been some semblance of a peace offering for the way they'd met back during the holidays. But before she could do so, they came across a door.

She could see how beautiful it once had been. Elegant and expertly made. Now it was ruined, pregnant with the brackish water that they were almost shin-deep in. As they walked in, Rowan took the folds of her coat and skirts and lifted them slightly. They too were rather soaked through and their extra weight contributed to the fact that she was panting slightly.

Rowan heard the sound of the table rolling towards them. It made a horrible screeching sound as it slid, giving her a sliver of a taste of how the ship might have sounded during the crash. Despite it being one of the smaller ones, gravity ensured it picked up momentum. Doing the first thing she could think of, Ro threw her entire bodyweight against Malfoy, "Move!"

It might as well have been like throwing herself at a wall. She was briefly reminded that not only he was taller, but years of quidditch practice had made him built to take the brunt of a multitude of forces including but not limited to all 5 foot 2 inches of herself.
