(what does raisons mean in french ? )
Demi appeared next to Jack again "Here's the list, all supplies are counted and it all matches... what's next? Shall I help raising the sails ?" She was anxious to do as much as she could, still proving herself but also keeping herself busy. The sooner time would pass the better.

(The quote means "My Captain has his reasons," so I'd presume it means reasons lol)
"Patience, luv," Jack said. "You've got plenty of time to work yer ass off," He smirked.
Jack stepped forward, leaning on the wooden railing at the edge of the top deck. "Gentlemen!" Jack announced, gesturing with his hands as he spoke. The crew stopped what they were doing and turned to look at him. "As you may have already noticed, we have a new crewmember aboard. I'd like you to welcome Miss Demi Jones as you would the man standing next to you. I know ... she's a woman ... but that does not change her capabilities. I want you to treat her well, and if I hear any sarcastic or sexist comment, it'll be straight to the brig with you," Jack said. "... unless they're coming out of my mouth," Jack muttered to Demi, smirking.

(whaha, come to think of it that does make sence  you have an rp in which both jd's char and vanessa paradis char are in? hehe that's SO handy for pictures!  ) Demi rolled her eyes slightly "Don't make ME throw YOU in the brig captain" she joked and looked at her crewmates that were slightly muttering about the whole women-aboard-bad-luck-issue. "I'm worth my salt, despite my gender" She said to them and looked at Jack "welll ?? what dye want me to do ?" |

(I'm about to start a Mexico one where my char looks like Vanessa But I didnt think of that when I made the sig, I just love Vanessa as much as I love Johnny lol  ) "Yer very eager," Jack groaned slightly. "It'll wear off soon enough ... I hope," He smirked. "Go and help them raise the sail then, luv," Jack tugged slightly at the beads in his beard as he thought. The girl was very eager ... almost too eager. He decided to push her hard, see how far she was willing to go to be accepted. |

Demi nodded and hurried off to help the others with the sails. As she walked over the deck she realised that the faster the ship was sailing the less easy it became for her to walk around, or keep her head under control...
She pulled the rope, together with the rest, soon the sails were up.

Jack smirked slightly as he watched the girl. He liked her, yes, but it didnt mean he was going to make this easy for her, she wanted work and Jack was sure as hell going to give it to her. There was a reason she'd picked his ship in particular, and it wasnt because Jack was 'more understanding' he just had to find out what the real reason was.
"Miss Jones!" Jack shouted when the sails were up. "When you've finished with that I've got a deck that need mopping,"

"Aye captain" She replied, without complaining. She knew she was in no position to complain, and besides she was truely happy to be able to get out of that town. She owed Jack a big time, eventhough they had a business agreement.
Demi went belowdecks to get a mop and a bucket with rope, she attached the robe to the bucket and went back updecks to haul in some water. Once she had the means to mop she started.
It took her about two hours to clean the whole deck but she managed, with sweat, a lot of sweat.
Actually, half way through the mopping Demi started feeling dizzy, but she kept on going. By now the dizzyness got worse, the ship was out in open sea, going full speed and the sun was burning on her skin...
"Almost finished" She talked to herself, encouraging herself to finish what she started.

Jack was still standing at the helm, gently guiding his ship. He caught sight of Demi out of the corner of his eye, she looked tired and sweaty. Jack felt a slight stab of guilt. "Should take the job if you cant handle it," He thought to himself, trying to talk himself out of the guilt.
"Mr Cotton!" He shouted, the mute man. "Take over the wheel," Jack wandered down the deck over to Demi. "Take your time, we're in no rush," Jack said sarcastically.

"Almost finished" Demi panted and scrubbed the last bit of deck "There, finished, done.. done.." She took a deep breath and looked at Jack, though he looked a bit vague. She squinted her eyes but still the sight wasn't clear.
Her face became more pale by the minute.
With shaky hands she grabbed the bucket and threw the water overboard, she herself however kept leaning over the railing, looking into the water..and out of nowhere she felt the urge to throw up.. and did ...

"Urg ... ok ..." Jack slipped his arm around her waist and made her rest her weight on him. "Come on luv, you've over done it," "Damn it, Jack, why dont you think before you do these things?"
Jack held her close to him as he helped her back to her cabin. He kicked the door open with his boot and helped her down onto the bed. Jack reached across to the bedstand and poured her a glass of water, it was warm but it would have to do. "Drink," He said to her, passing the drink.
