Nicolas stared in Jamie's direction as though he had wished there would be something that could keep the two together despite the obvious plots being made. He overheard a few remarks from both Katherine and Jonathan and knew that they had arrived in Divvytown and would need to be leaving incredibly soon. Leaving from the doorway, but allowing it to remain open, the elf grabbed all that was needed and then began out. "We'll need to get going Ms. Gallows.. looks like the ship has arrived." His hurried behavior gave the woman no chance to speak of his fresh wounds and to Nicolas this was better for the two of them. As pirates, they had no place to truly worry or care over the small things. Life was so much larger than a simple scratch.
Following behind both Katherine, Jonathan and Rachel, the elf lowered his ears slightly as his brow furrowed. The Dementia had quickly become a place he did not wish to remain upon. As he had returned to his room only moments earlier, the man had picked up all that held any value to him. For the most part, his boots jangled with the sound of his extra doubloons. Turning back to Jamie, the man motioned for her to follow, having slowed his pace. Together, they'd both return to Divvytown. With any luck, it would offer the two a few doubloons each.

Rachel walked down the deck into the Crew Quarters, "Alright! If anyone tries to leave this ship, they will be killed!" She hoped that would keep any of the crew from trying to go to Divvytown, she wanted to spare the crew from seeing what was done to Divvytown. She walked back out to the deck, and cleared her lungs to yell to the rest of the crew.
"Same goes for all of you out here, try and leave the ship and thou will be killed!" It sounded harsh, but it was a threat ment to keep them safe. She walked to the Armoury and gathered enough Throwing Knives to take down the whole crew many times over. Now, she could only wait for Katherine and Jonathan to return with as many of the crew they could, if they weren't all dead, then sail the hell away from Divvytown and to Isla Olvidada where it should be safe.

The trip back to the Dementia was not nearly as nerve wracking for Katherine as the journey toDivvytown had been. This was mostly likely due to the proximity of Daria to Katherine, close enough that she could smell the strong scent of the navigator. True, she hadn't washed properly in a while and the was a slight overtone of too much person in too small a space, but to Katherine, used to the smell of a severely underwashed crew, the familiar scent of Daria was deliciously strong underneath.
Katherine hardly noticed the stares of the english crews they passed, focusing so thoroughly on Daria that she was quite surprised by the small rowboat knocking up against the hull of the Dementia. A ladder was thrown down and they were all aboard, admittedly with some difficulty due to the ropes still binding the prisoners together. Once back on deck, Katherine ordered the "prisoners" to be taken below until they were out of sight of Divvytown.
With a smirk Katherine cut Daria from the line, swung the startled woman over her shoulder and headed towards her cabin for a much more personal reunion. As an afterthought she called for a boat to be sent back for Jonathan and the other prisoners, it wouldn't do to just leave him there after all.

Rachel noticed that Katherine had returned, and she had guests with her. She noticed Daria, and a few other familiar faces, but she didn't notice Gabriella or Jemima in the group of people. Rachel grew concerned with the safety of the other two officers, they had sailed on the Dementia together for quite a while, and it's always a shame to see someone you called a friend not return from something like that. Rachel nodded to Katherine and Daria as they headed to Katherine's Quarters, then the Master-at-Arms took the line of people and led them down below the deck.
"Alright you guys, until we can get far enough from Divvytown, you have to stay in this room," Rachel untied the people then walked out of the room, making sure to lock it just in case. She then headed back to the deck. She then remembered that Jonathan wasn't with Katherine, so where was he? She walked towards Katherine's Quarters and waited outside for Katherine to come out.

Ms. Gallows had caught her breath as the elf had opened his door. His partially bare chest instantly seized Jamie's stare, as well as the wound wrappings and the light amount of blood. Time seemed to slow as Jamie found herself at an absolute loss for words. It was as though her heart was sinking for having simply somewhat flirted with Jonathan earlier. Usually this small act meant nothing to her, but now she was doubting herself. Shaking this ubsurd thought away quickly she regained her posture, offering the lef a sly smile.
As she finally opened her mouth to speak, talk of arriving at Divvytown sounded and the male turned into his room to retrieve his things. Jamie took a small step into his room, before backing out rather swiftly as the elf then spoke breifly. Yes, the Dementia had reached port. This was most definately a good time to get off the wretched ship and onto dry land after such an adventure at sea.
Jamie nodded as Nicolas motioned for her to follow. What else would she have been doing? Surely she wasnt going to be accompanying Katherine, Rachel or Jonathan to the pub, for they seemed rather occupied themselves. The young gypsy's heels clicked as she quickened her pace to catch up to the fighter.
" Where to then, Mr. Morgan?" The woman purred, brushing up alongside the man almost cat-like. She then rested her hands on her hips as she walked, blowing a few stray bangs from her vision. " The bar maybe? " She suggested with an excited grin.
No that they were in Divvytown the woman wanted to make the best of it. The time at sea was quite the adventure, but she had not had all the sleep nor drinking time to herself that she would have wanted. Plus, most of she and the elf's attempts at romance had been cut very short. Bright blue eyes now focused on the bar at the top of a nearby hill. Her sea legs were certainly longing for the solid feel of land.
Jamie then felt her fists clench as the familiar bossy voice sounded and she froze. They couldn't leave the ship? For what reasons? Rachel was going on about crew memebers being killed if they attempted such an idea. Jamie then growled and turned, looking in the direction of the group that had formed. She nudges Nicolas. " Looks like we arent home free just yet, love. " She whispered in his direction.

Cosette looked at Jonathan's hand for a moment before she slid her slender hand in his. It was nice to be treated like a lady for once, instead of the servant that she had been. She offered him a smile as she rose from her seat on the boat to board the ship.
As she stepped foot on the large ship she gazed in wonder at its size, true it had seemed emence on the open ocean, but standing on its deck, amidst all the rigging and people... made her feel small beyon mesure. "So this is it then..." she said in a tone of awe.. this was the place of where she would start her life of freedom..upon a pirate ship.

The sight of Daria rolling about in Katherine's bed had her entraced for several moments, so much so that she almost missed the beautiful navigator's sharp words. Backing up against the door out of some defensive instinct, Katherine frantically scoured her brain for some reasonable excuse.
"Because... he reeks?" This idea immediately stuck Katherine's fancy so she decided to run with it. "Honestly, I don't think the man washes at all. He sleeps in the hold and you can smell him from the crow's nest. I'm surprised you could stand him... he must have fallen overboard recently and had a rinse."
Feeling that she had exhausted this line of fabrication, Katherine tried another tactic; distraction. "But enough about smelly tacticians. I've missed you so much, you can't honestly say you haven't missed me too, now can you?" As she said this Katherine edged closer to the bed, ending up just out of striking range in case Daria didn't bite. Or in case she did.

Katherine was caught off guard by the question, having been thoroughly distracted by the delicious sensation of having her hair petted by Daria. The idea of Daria torturing the story of Katherine's disaster with the love potion out of some hapless deckhand was quite an alarming one, despite the fact that Katherine doubted Jonathan had told any of the deckhands.
Katherine decided to ignore that little incident. "Oh, we had a little jaunt on some forgotten island that went rather well." Thoughts of her interlude with the master-at-arms arose at the mention of the island and Katherine hurried on. "A few battles, here and there. Nothing of interest. How about you, my dear? How is it that you came to be captured so easily by those english dogs?"
Curious to hear the tale of Daria's capture, but more curious about other things, Katherine's hands began to wander as she waited for an answer.

Katherine arched a brow at the flimsy excuse, but let it pass as her own stories had been rather lacking in credibility. Their relationship often existed on such delicate balances, and who was she to disturb it now for such petty things as truthful stories? Katherine traced her hand lightly over Daria's stomach, carefully ignoring its growth once again and instead moving her hand towards the opening of the navigator's shirt.
"Last time was entirely not my fault. How was I to know that stupid boy would be standing where I was firing?" Fighting down the irritation that this memory produced, the captain continued on in a much calmer voice. "I promise luv, I'll stay right... here."
The emphasis on the last word was accompanied by a quick squeeze by Katherine's hand, declaring her intentions of spending the rest of the evening quite occupied exactly where they were.

Gabriel grinned, he was finally finished with those swords, It seemed like it took him three years to sharpen them all. But, now that they were finished, he would have a chance to do something relaxing, well at least for now... Gabriel stood up and walked from the pile of now shining swords. His monkey hopped onto his shoulder and chittered.
"You're lucky I have forgiven you for getting me into this mess," Gabriel chuckled, "I should probably give you a name before you get too attacked to being called monkey..." Gabriel headed out of the armoury and down to the crew quarters, intent on having a bit of water to drink. The monkey chirped at him a little more, "I got it, you are Namu" he chuckled again, he had heard that sad on The Island the night before they went into the temple, it seemed to be fitting since the monkey was from The Island.

Rachel sighed, the captain must have been having her way with the Navigator, and forgot that they were still close enough for the Navy to attack the Dementia if they realized Jonathan and Katherine weren't Navy Officers, just Pirates trying to save a few of their own. Rachel knew however, knocking on the Captain's door when she was busy usually resulted in bad things for the one who knocked.
Rachel sighed once more and coughed outside the door, hoping that Katherine would hear her and realize that now wasn't the time for that. Right now was the time for getting the hell out of there with their lives, unless Katherine wanted to get caught, which Rachel was sure Katherine didn't.

Jonathan climbed aboard after the French woman, allowing the oarsmen to do their duty of bringing the small craft back on board. "I'll show you to the crew quarters where you'll sleep..." he looks over to Rachel and notices that she is standing by the door apprehensively; an obvious sign that the captain is busy, "once I take care of a few things."
The Tactician walked over to the Master-At-Arms and nodded, not giving any form of salute due to the proximity of the other English ships and their wandering eyes. "Ma'am, if I may suggest," he says in a manner to indicate he is no longer the superior, "notify the helmsman to get us the hell away from this place before our hosts figure out what happened to their prisoners." Anticipating the question or remark, he continues, "I'm sure the Captain will agree."
