I blink a little in thought, trying to recall any half-interesting stories.. but give up on that rather quickly and look to my glass of gin, "Sellin' maps. What do ye think I get up to?" I shrug, "Jest back and forth to the pier everyday, I guess.."

Jack gave a dry smile as he regarded Cleo over the rim of his cup, his voice a bit sarcastic. " 'Ow terribly exciting. You poor girl," he paused. "Business well then?"

I grin sarcastically to that, pretending to be very amused.. "Aye, poor little me. Trade is fine, though, there's always demand in fer my trade here.. which is why you're going to have to compensate me so."

Jack's brows furrowed as he idly played with the beads in his beard. "You are ever the business woman. Don't you think of anythin' else?" He shook his head. "In tha' case I suppose tha' it'll indeed be twenty-five percent of me plunder - but no higher so don't even ask, savvy? I wouldn't want to deprive you of your livelihood, bein' so young an' defenseless."

"May I remind you that I live in Tortuga as a single woman.." I can't help but smirk, "I'm not exactly defenseless.. but if it gets me more profit, than I'll be as defenseless as ye like.."
I take a sip of my drink, "And I really cannot be bloody bothered with much else. I do me work, drink a little, keep me mind off things, it's easy."

Jack smirked in return, taking another sip of his rum. "Aye, well I think you're defenseless enough. You're gettin' enough money from me already." He then shook his head again, the beads in his hair clanking quietly. "I still don't see 'ow you can't be bothered with much else. Wha' kind of life is tha'? Girl as pretty as you should 'ave some other joys in life besides sellin' maps to grungy pirates, not livin' some life sentence seemingly devoid of laughter an' fun."

"Who says I don't 'ave fun?" I decide, "I can laugh as much as I want.. it's just that the majority of the time I don't."

Jack lofted his brows in disbelief. "Really? I don't think I've ever seen you laugh. Do you not find anythin' funny then or do you simply 'ave an unnatural affinity for brooding?"

"You're obviously not very amusing." I smile.

Jack grinned. "Well even if I'm not, which is utter an' complete rubbish, you're smilin' now at least. I'll take it."
