I laugh slightly, because I really can't help myself, "I can tell that this will be a better week than I was first expecting. We should share a few drinks together sometime." I tell him, as we walk along.

"Aboard the Pearl, things are always better," Jack replied with a grin, his love for his chosen lifestyle as well as his cherished ship evident in his dark eyes. "An' we most definitely should. I'm not the type of man...pirate...Captain...to refuse an offer to drink."

I meet his grin with one of my own, "Maybe sometime later, if you're not busy with that girl, and I'm not busy with that.. Bailey. Though, I'm sure I won't be, if rum is on the cards."

"Aye," he agreed. "It might be much later, unfortunately, as there's much to do before we can truly relax. I have a nagging feelin' that the bloody Navy might still be snooping around," he explained, his face a mix of disgust and seriousness.

I pause a little bit, and stop in my tracks, "How likely?" I frown, "I'd rather not get into any trouble.."

Jack stopped as well and turned to face Cleo, his hands resting on the hilt of his sword from long habit. A slight smile tugged at the corner of his lips. "If it's trouble you don't want, this is really the very last place you should be, love - a pirate galleon filled with men who have numerous bounties on their heads. You know the stories, an' what we're wanted for. The Navy is on the lookout for us every minute of our lives. Though I do know that you had little choice on the matter."
He then sighed, and gave a shrug as he considered her question. "How likely, you ask? I'd say quite. The Commodore is not one to give up easily, so I have no doubt we will see him and his ship at some point."

"Aye, I bloody know that.. which is why I stay in Tortuga." I remind him, "A pirate galleon is the last place I want to be, especially when the navy is on it's trail."

Jack's gaze narrowed in curiosity. "Aye, but are you runnin' from them specifically, as in you committed a crime against the Crown, or do you just fear them in the general sort of manner? Because you are only a map-maker...not a pirate."

"Actually.. I'm a map-reader... and collector. And you may have noticed that not many like me reside in Tortuga. I'm not there for fun. I'm there for the same reason you are. The law isn't exactly on my side." I ramble, but stop there, "It's all just a messy history."

"So, there's more to you than meets the eye, eh?" Jack asked with an appreciative grin. He then shook his head. "No worries, miss. I don't want to run into those scallywags any more than you do, so I'll be sure to stay out of their sights for as long as I can help it, savvy?"
