"Well, I can't swim." Sip!

"Surprise me." Smile!

"And the symbols?"
--
"You can't swim?" He widens his eyes.

"Okaay." He decides to make grilled chicken sandwiches, combining all of his vast cooking knowledge.

"They don't care about symbols. They just care that you've got gashes in your arms."
--
"Nope."

Jed sits and watches.

"I don't know."
---
"That's a pity."
---
He only burns the chicken a little and places all the sandwiches on a large platter that he puts on the table. "How's that?"

"If you get any worse at all, I'm calling a doctor. Understand?"
--
"Is it? I've barely been around much water besides the stuff in bathtubs."

"Looks great!" He takes one and munches.

"..Understood."
---
"Swimming is fun! That's why it's a pity. I could teach you, if you'd like."

"Good." He smiles and sits, picking up a sandwich for himself.

"I dunno.. Do you think it's something I'll really need to know?"

Jed munches happily on the chicken. The ship shudders slightly and Jed looks up. "I guess we're there."

"I just want you to be okay. Are you mad?"
--
"I guess.. Can Sparrow swim?"

"You can have some of my old clothes once we get home. If you want." Munch.

"No."
---
"Of course she can."
---
"That would help. My wife only sent two changes but I'm a little worried about.. uh.. ruining them."

".. Okay." Hug.
--
"Oh." Blink. "What, can everyone swim?"

"Yeah, I understand."
Here comes Rufus. "Morning, boys. Ready to go? Ooh, sandwiches." He grabs one.

"Do you think they're magic? Or voodoo?"
--
"Really? I think.. Well, I don't know if Cy can swim. Who else can swim?"

"I know Richard can."

"That's fine. I can walk. Should I bring my suitcase?"

"What do you think they do?"
--
"Huh."

"Yes, probably." Rufus sticks the sandwich in his mouth and heads up again.
Jed follows!
