Esprit de Corps

[Emma]

She was roused when she heard her name shouted from on deck. She quickly climbed up the stairs ignoring a whistle from the crews quarters. She saw Jack and made her way over to him. "Yes?" she asked.

"You shall be bunking in my quarters while I am in the room with my crew, don't touch my rum, or any other items in there!" he warned "or next time I might not be as generous, as to give up what's mine, savvy?" he motioned his head toward a room, "go get your bunks in there" then he continued to focus on sailing.

[Emma]

Beth-Anne nodded. She already knew where his quarters were having been sitting outside them for a good fifteen minutes so she hauled her ass right down there. This time when she passed the crew's quarter there was not a single whistle or cat call. This pleased her. She opened the door to Jack's quarters and sat down on the bed, quite ready to pass out.

Julia's jaw droped. There was no way she'd be bunking with Beth-Anne and even worse, bunking in any other room then the crews quarters, the rest of the crew would look at her as weaker then them. "Cap'n." She said running after him. "I've been cap'n of a male crew for over five years, 'nd I hate ta see ya give up yer cabain ta us." She began sucking up, which made her feel sick, but she went on. "Why don ya 'ave her set up a hammock in yer room 'nd I'll sleep below deck wit the crew, I can handle meself, what say you?"

[littlezion]

"well miss though you may have expirience with crewman but something tells me you didn't stop and think." he said, "I'm captain of this ship and I've been kind enough to offer you something, now are you going to except the offer or am I going to have to make it an order?" he would have loved to have his quarters back but he knew that Julia didn't like Beth-Anne and maybe this would give them a chance to get to know eachother so they would stop arguing, and waisting his time.

[Emma]

She sat, watching the door, but Julia didn't come. She wanted to discuss sleeping arrangements with her, but it seemed she was still on deck. She climbed back up the stairs to have a look.

[Lisa]

"Aye but do ya really think we'll be able to get along wit eachother? I'll get no sleep cuz I'll be fighting wit her half the night 'nd I wont be well rested. 'nd jus so ya know, I'm not afraid o'gettin me hands dirty either." she informed him

[littlezion]

"well now Julia" he began "either work it out or get ready to swim to shore, because I can't be working wiv' an arguing crew, and as of now you and Beth-Anne are the only ones arguing on my ship. now I'd decide quickly because I won't be putting up with any more arguing" he looked at Beth-Anne too.

[Emma]

Beth-Anne watched from the below deck door, "I'll be doing no fightin' sweetie," she said to Julia, "I need sleep. I haven't slept in three days. If I don't get my sleep it'll be the devil to pay and I'd prefer not upsetting Jack." She was firm with her position on the matter. She turned and walked through the door heading back to the captain's quarters.

[Lisa]

Julia grunted at Jack then followed behind Beth-Anne "I prefure not ta be called sweetie please, ya can call me Cap'n Julia or jus' Julia considering this aint me ship. 'nd ya can set up a hammock, if i'm stuck sleepin' in 'ere I'm gettin' the bed." She told her and swng the door shut behind her letting it slam a bit.
