Jamie had darted forward as soon as the winning crew members had stepped aside with their prizes. The young woman scooped up a good number of coins and began to hide them along her curvacious form. They were first shoved into her own boots, others slipped under her skirt and then the rest were forced into her corsette as Nicolas took hold of her free hand to lead her away. She eyed the rest of the gold coins lying unclaimed ont he floor with a whone before turning to keep up with the male, shoving the rest of her coins into her cleavage as the male turned to address her.
" Oh, I believe I got what I could carry. " Ms. Gallows respnded, adjusting her skirt at her waist as she walked alongside him. Her helled boots jingled as she walked as well and this caused her to smile in return. It seemed even though they had not succeeded in beating the others teams to the end of the tunnel first they still came out with something. The whole trip to the island was not a complete waste for the young woman.
She walked siftly witht he male, following their captain so as they would make it off the dreaded island before nightfall. All she wished for now was a soft blanket and a pillw for her to rest her head on. Perhaps even a second body to share her bed. She grinned at the thought, twirling her ring about her finger anxiously.

Finally emerging onto the broad beach more or less where she had expected to, Katherine smirked to herself and headed towards the boats that were perched high above the tide lines. The few crewmen who had actually deigned to gather supplies were resting wearily nearby, but they leapt to their feet at the sight of their (rather bedraggled) Captain.
She started barking orders before they were all standing, holding herself with the confidence born of long command, or possibly just the amount of gold she had on her person. "Get those boats loaded and in the water, you lazy rat bastards! We should have been off this sandy hellhole hours ago!"
Katherine smiled as they scurried to obey her orders, smugly ignoring the fact that she herself had delayed their departure. Feeling the chill as the afternoon air cooled, the Captain recalled her earlier undressing and went in search of her coat and hat.
Snugly dressed once more in her familiar coat, Katherine reached down to grab her hat only to be startled by a squawk from within. Carefully peering into the cavern formed by the odd angle of her hat and the sand beneath, the Captain was bewildered to find a pair of beady eyes staring back at her.
Remembering that she was in fact the captain of a very large ship, Katherine gathered her courage and snatched her hat off the ground, revealing the injured parrot beneath. They eyed each other warily for a long moment, each examining their opponents brightly coloured plumage.
Noticing the way the parrot dragged its green and blue wing slightly, Katherine made a decision. She set her hat back down, bottom facing up, and gestured for the bird to hop in. When it eventually scuttled suspiciously into the hat, she carefully picked up the hat, bird and all, and settled it gently against her chest.
"You'll make a wonderful new hat for Daria."

Rachel walks out of the bushes, "I am glad that is over," she smiles, then picks some small twigs from her hair. She hears a squack from the Captain's direction, and goes over to see what it was. She peers over the Captain's shoulder and sees a parrot in a hat. She almost laughs but she holds it in.
"So are we having Parrot Stew or something?" She jokes. The bird seemed scared, something looked wrong with it's wing. "Did somebody step on the little parrot?"
Gabriel hops out of the bushes, monkey in his arms, chittering like no tomorrow. Gabriel looks rather annoyed, he turns the monkey to face him and yells, "STOP CHITTERING!" The monkey stopped and cowered in fear. Looking at the scared monkey, Gabriel quickly felt guilty.
"Sorry little guy, but you can't chitter like that for hours," Gabriel waslks onto the beach and smiles. "Maybe when we get back onto the ship we can have fone fun" His smile widens, and a small childish chuckle could be heard.

Jamie's gaze tore from the sandy shore that they had approuched as she watched the Captain stroll over to a shady tree to retrieve her coat and hat. Orders had been issued and several crewmen worked at loadign the small boats so as they would be ready to depart towards the Dementia. The short tanning woman stared at the magnificent ship for a moment, a smile playing at her full lips. Surely her mind was set upon a few things. One of which included raising herself in rank.
So far she hadn't had it to bad as a deckhand. Yet, glancing about at the men around her she couldn't see why she was to be level witht hem. She had proved herself in battle and in brains within the temple. Her sky blue eyes locked on the Captain and Rachel. Her small hand squeezed Nicolas' for a short second, her form turning so as to give the male a wink.
The gypsy woman made her way gracefully in the direction of the captain, slipping around Rachel with ease. Her voice surfaced in almost a purr. " Impressive Captain. I'd say you handled our temple situation wonderfully. From what I've seen on other ships your the only Captain I know whom would have been able to get her whole crew off of the island alive. " She rose a brow upon spotting the parrot.
"Another animal then? It seems we are starting a collection. " Jamie found the thought amusing and offered a smile to the woman before her, resting her hands on her hips, boots jingling from the coins within them. The young woman took the slight pause as an opportunity to blow a strand of her hair from her face and then fix it behind her ear with her dainty hand. It was not unlike her to randomly strike a conversation. Yet, for it to be with the captain was another manner. Especially if it was meant to somehow lead into the topic of promotions.

Katherine shifted uncomfortably as her master-at-arms came to inspect her burden. The parrot squawked unhelpfully from her hat. "Neither. Mr... Cloudsnuggle McTastyribbon the III here is a gift for Daria."
The Captain averted her eyes and tried not to hear the mockery she was sure to come. She was suprised when a dark haired wench came up and did quite the opposite, flattering Katherine within an inch of her life. She was quite bewildered as to what the girl was trying to do, few had the courage to talk to the Captain personally out of a fear that madness was catching.
Still, flattery was flattery. Katherine preened more proudly than her parrot. "I couldn't have done it without my loyal crew. With you at my side how could I go wrong?" she said with a wink. "Perhaps I should have you at my side more often."
Katherine then turned and strode towards the waiting boats, eager to return to the Dementia. When she was safely seated in one she gave the order to cast off, leaving the other boat waiting for the remaining crew.

Coming up quickly behind Jamie was a somewhat disheartened Nicolas. Like Jaime, he had great dreams of raising his rank and eventually becoming a Captain, but with only a few gold dubloons in his boots and the distrust and frustration of both the captain and many of her commanding officers, this seemed little to possible. Feeling a tight squeeze of his hand from Jamie, the elf smirked in return. The comfort and passion given from the short, gypsy woman was what he valued the most on the Dementia, dispite the fact he never told her.
When Jamie left his side and joined both the captain and Rachel, Nicolas was left somewhat confused. With the beginning of a conversation and certain glint to Jamie's eyes, the elf couldn't help but shake his head and release a gruff laugh. The woman was surely determined to raise her rank, even if it meant she'd need to lower herself to their level temporarily. The words of Katherine following Jamie's praise was quite surprising! Perhaps I should have you at my side more often, replayed in Nicolas' head multiple times over, until he found himself staring at the group of three woman with his jaw dropped. Had Jamie so easily attracted the captain's attention?
Shaking his head and rolling his eyes, the male made his way onto one of the small boats, just as eager as the captain to return to the Dementia.
The small monkey that had been following Nicolas around had made itself comfortable on his shoulder, acting as more of a burden than anything else. Dispite the discomfort, Nicolas allowed it to remain where it was, sleeping soundly.

Perhaps I should have you at my side more often. Jamie's thoughts raced as she was caught by surprise from the words uttered from her Captains mouth. The young woman knew of the Captains sexuality, though couldn't see herself in the same way. Jamie could feel her stomach wanting to empty at the thought of herself and another woman together. Her posture never showed a hint of surprise nor disgust though as she gave Katherine an interested glance.
"Well, I can assure you things would be alot more interesting." Ms. Gallows replied to the Captains statement and followed the two women towards the boats that were being loaded and prepared on the beach. " Perhaps my Cap'n would like a dance lesson from an ol' gypsy later tonight? " Jamie slightly purred, swinging her braid over her shoulder to run her hands over it playfully. Her bangs hung in her sky blue eyes as she examined Katherine's body momentarily. " It's good for stress.."
The former gyspy paused as they reached the boats and rose a brow, wondering if she were to follow or take another boat back to the ship. Surely the Captain was enjoying her company enough to continue speaking with her, but was she allowed to take the same boat back. She was a lowly deckhand by no doubt.
" How 'bout you think it over on the ride back to th' Dementia? " Jamie offered, taking a step backwards as she gave the women room to enter their boat. " You can invite a few officers if you'd like. " She then bowed her head to the women she had been speaking to and gave her a wink in return. " Let me know what your thoughts are, Cap'n."
With that Jamie turned and made her way towards a boat that the other deckhands were beginning to push into the water. She took her place beside a familiar male. Nicolas. Jamie smiled to the male as they shoved off and hopped into the boat and took up oars.
" Tonight should be interesting.."
