Come on, lets see a smile! (v.2)

Tim continued to try and get attention onto him, pointing frantically to the hunched figure that was rummaging through the crates. 'Over there, over there is someone snooping!' he wanted to shout, but was currently unable too, only coming out and jumbled up static frequencies.

Meanwhile, the small figure continued to rummage through the crates, finding bits and pieces of parts they seemed to like, and put into a potato sac they carried beside them, which was out of sight. They then slipped in between a few boxes and jumped into one of the taller crates that held spare costume parts, being buried completely in the clothing.

[thanks - im sure that one everyone gets to know Jinx's character a little more, she'll be even more interesting XD - though im having trouble on what she's to look like ... i got an idea from a friend - but it only half fits her style of character - if anyone has idea's on what she might look like, i'd be more then happy to listen! ]

*~~Yay! Monster's in the action, time for more rambling. Jumbo is on hiatus, time to leave him there.~~*

Monster watched the serpent slither into the cage, staying where it was for a moment, swaying its head. Was it confused? Monster took a daring chance and shifted about to sit correctly, not knowing the extent of hostility the creature might have. "Are you lost?" She asked blankly. While she knew she couldn't understand the snake, it was her own way of making conversation, even if it was a situation that was practically impossible for the other to respond. "Did you chase Myshi all the way here? Am I right? I mean, serpents don't inhabit the ocean do they?" She said, rambling off for a moment before looking back to the snake. "You are....very pretty....your scales I mean..." So monster said, her dreamy and dazed voice soft as she spoke this.

*~~Holy Cow! I got Monster commissioned by this wonderful and dynamic artist on Deviantart! http://delineationcreation.deviantart.com/
Anyway, she finished Monster and look how great she turned out! I'm so happy! *o* She was testing the skin colors since we didn't know what color might look good. But, I think I might just go with it. I kinda like it. Maybe~~*

Sparrow, Ivy and Wendy had all seen the small group that seemed to form near the crates. Though they were curious, Sparrow a little more than the other two, the trio refrained from going over there. They did not want to stand out more than they already were, with their unusual garments and the small groups within the large one. After a while they began talking again, though Sparrow continued to watch what was going on occasionally, noticing Voodoo and Flintlock as they went off in some direction.

Lavander continued to wallow in her pit of uselessness and guilt before Joker spoke again. It surprised her how a man with such a kind voice would be less than perfect: a skeletal prosthetic, she vaguely remembered them being called, in the place of his arm. Granted she could not see if anyone else was like him, but she couln't help but feel sorry for him and anyone else that needed a replacement limb to continue living. She smiled weakly though and allowed herself to close her eyes as she heard Joker say that he would try and sneak her on, also glad that she wasn't the only "defective" one in the world. Being blind really limited her knowledge of people's appearances, so she knew little of physical deformities. She was able to oddly detect such things though if she tried, both physically, emotionally, and mentally using her hearing and sensitive touch. After a few moments of thinking, Lavander dozed off.

Voodoo snickered as he snuck up on the man Joker had described to him. He thought for a moment before extending his fingers and focused on the man's coat. As the magician twitched his fingers, the coat tugged and flapped as if grabbed by a ghost.

Joker sighed. "Can ye look after 'er, girls?" He asked the three girls. He spotted the girl rummaging through their costume box and a look of irritation crossed his face. "Oi! Get outta there!" He yelled. How much more would he have to deal with before they even got on the ship?!


Dagger started looking around nervously at the idea of a loose snake, as he was quite frightened of them.

The girl didn't come out of the box, still rummaging as she found a few bits and pieces she liked of the spare cloth and clothing. Once she was finished she popped her head out of the crate, now climbing to sit on it's edge as she soon jumped down, her sac about half full now as she was about to walk off.

Sparrow, Ivy, and Wendy all tuned their heads when they heard Joker speak to them. Apparently there was a girl that they were crowded around, which answered their unspoken question. "O' course, Joker." Ivy said to him, pulling Sparrow with her as she walked and Wendy following silently behind. Sparrow and Ivy both gave silent gasps and Wendy put on a look of surprise as they saw the malnourished and fatigued child resting upon the rough ground. "We'll take care of 'er brother." Ivy said with a frown to him, getting down on her knees so she could look at the child. She seemed to be sleeping, or dozing at least, so she decided not to say anything.

"He's the green and yellow one. He's not very big and he is not venomous, says Dan." Snake looked around to see where the run-away snake could have gone decided he would probably go where it was not quite so crowded. After looking around for a moment, the snake charmer found an alley that seemed to fit that description fairly well. He started to walk in that direction, listening for the familiar hiss of Oscar or any signs of his presence - people freaking out perhaps - but found neither. Where could he possibly be...? Continuing to walk - though keeping track of where he was going so he could get back to the boat easily -, Snake stumbled upon a sight that he found worrisome: a person in a cage. The green scales of Oscar caught his eyes but Snake could not bring himself to move from the spot he stood. At a glance he could tell that the unfortunate person before him differed in appearance from most people and his hands balled into fists involuntarily at the memory all too similar to this situation. "...Oscar...? says Dan," he murmured quietly.

((I hope this post makes sense. It's late and my mind has been rather scatterbrained these past few days.))

Monster looked up from the snake and to the other. It had slightly startled her at his sudden appearance but just because of her naturaly blank personality, she only jumped. "Oh....is he yours...?" She asked, staring now at the shadowed figure.

*short post is long on phone*

"...He's a friend, says Dan," Snake said softly. After a moment he walked over to the cage and knelt down to collect Oscar, avoiding eye contact with the stranger. Oscar slithered into his open hand and Snake rose to his feet, feeling quite conflicted about whether he should do something for her or not.

Monster nodded at the revelation, fully understanding. Though why he didn't look at her confused monster. "I see...Well good bye....Oscar was it....?" She said softly slinking back into her cage. Despite gaining her many visitors, she was still tired and would prefer to start sleeping now so the start of the travel inland would pass quickly. "I am glad you found your friend sir...have a nice day...." Monster said, bringing the thin blanket over her form though didn't lay to sleep. She was curious of the other. "Actually...who are you? You are strange....different from people I'm used to." so she spoke, watching the other through her curtain of bangs.
