Janeè, AKA 'Pipsqueak', Age 8, Cabin Girl
Pipsqueak walked aimlessly on the upper deck, unsure of how to spend her time. She had woken early that morning to do her daily chores, and without any messages to deliver, and without anything in need of cleaning, she found herself bored out of her mind. She spotted Jack, the ship's surgeon, at the head of the ship and made her way over, looking up at her bird as it swiveled its head to look at her. It gave a little caw, and Pipsqueak laughed, smiling. "Hi, Captain," she said happily. "Hi Jack."

"Morning, child," Jack replied to the girl, with much less acid than she ever used with most of the adult crew, though not removing her eyes from the horizon. "What is it they got you doing today?"

Captain raised his head to look at the bird, chattering at it and reaching a hand out towards it from Jack's shoulder.

Trap ; 19 ; cabin boy
Trap grinned at Max and pat his head, "Calm down little pirate! I was only pulling your wooden leg!" the boy said with a laugh he hoisted his fellow up by the hand and handed him the waxing supplies; "Right then, let's get to work waxing this good ol' tub." Trap said while cleaning his soapy hands off on his tattered shirt.

Calypso ; 22 ; able sailor
Calypso vanished immediately up the stairs without a sound at his order, she used the extra ropes to tie up some old ropes that needed replacing and she thought weren't sturdy enough. The girl climbed up on one of the rope-made ladders, and started working.

Max blinked then trying not to blush harder and nodded some then, he got up with Trap's help and gabbed the tools handed to him nodding some once more, "Ok" he looked around for a place to start... "where should we start?" he asked after a few moments shifting his gaze back to the ground, it was so nice to be here up on the deck and not feelso sick anymore... He still had that feeling that he would panick if he looked out at the sea but.. Well, one thing at a time, isn't it what people say? He massaged his cheeks a little trying to help the blush go away and fixed his hat once more.

“ A young heart that belongs to the sea.”

{:|Captain Maggie Fletcher|:}

Maggie nodded thoughtfully as she listened to Artephius's sound advice to the end. On his remark about prices on her head in some of the ports, she smirked. "I'm sure there'll be wanted posters about me all over," she chuckled darkly. "But I'll worry about that. Trinidad sounds like the best bet as of now, and even if they do have a look-away policy, I'd say we should still strike the colors and disguise the ship's name as we get closer. No point in inviting unwanted attention, aye?"

"I don't have any jobs right now," said Pipsqueak, twiddling her thumbs a bit. Suddenly, she looked up with excited eyes, rocking on the balls of her feet. "Do you have anything for me to do, Jack? I'll do anything you need me to!"

"Just be calm, child," Jack murmured, resting a hand atop Pipsqueak's head to calm her bouncing. "Look out at the sea," she added, smoothing the girl's hair briefly down before returning a hand up to scratch Captain on the head. "What do you see?"

Janeé AKA 'Pipsqueak', Age 8, Cabin Girl
Taking a deep breath to calm herself down a bit, Pipsqueak stood on her toes to see the water. She looked at the calm little waves that parted as the bow of the ship came through, and she looked at the seagulls that chattered overhead. What did she see, in all of this? She looked up at Jack, smiling. "I see home," she said innocently.

[OhNoMan]

Artephius, Shipmaster

"It's hard to have a "turn a blind eye" policy when someone is flying pirate colors, yes. Makes the lax port authority just look incompetent. And makes us look incompetent for not trying. It's a Spanish port, so flying friendly colors for there would be advisable," Artephius went back to busying his hands with inspecting the ropes, glancing back at the captain once again for a brief moment. The conversation had almost drifted into 'exchanging pleasantries' part. Eugh. Best cut it off soon. "Flying your home country would likely not lead to us being popular."

"But it would be less delusionally foolish than flying a pirate flag."

Thumbless Jack Dawe |47| Surgeon

Jack blinked, almost in surprise at the answer before looking down at Pipsqueak, returning one roughly calloused hand to her hair and trailing it down her cheek in thought.

"You are too young for this home, child. The sea is harsh and wild," she said, almost gently. "Is there no other place that will have you in the world?"

Pipsqueak smiled, her eyes deep with experience beyond her years. "My mama left me when I was little, then I was gonna be sold to a family in France. I was supposed to be their chimney sweep," she told Jack, remembering her short but eventful life so far. She looked up at Jack, her eyes reflecting the rays of the sun. "This is my only home."
