 Tristan KaneTristan laughed at her remark of him having 'good blood'. He had lived trying to build the impression that he came from the best blood and had succeeded as far as she was concerned. "It is always better to question." If he had not questioned the men who 'stole' the Legacy from his father then Tristan would still be working on land.
"I will be helping you rehabilitate yourself once we arrive at our destination. That will be at the end of the week. You may not be back to your old self for a while, however."

Jessica sighed deeply, she hated feeling like she had to rely upon people, "So, do you have someone back at home, a wife or girlfriend?" she asked as she looked up at him smiling softly. Rehabilitate, she wondered that that would involve, just getting her legs to work or was it fixing her of her piracy ways, she knew that he would never be able to change that.

Tristan KaneTristan laughed again at her questions though they would only be funny to him. "Girlfriend? Wife? No. I am not home enough to create such a relationship." He sighed as he looked back at his working crew. They must surely be missed by their women. He then looked back at Jessica,
"And you? I suppose you are always surrounded by men."

Jessica laughed gently, “No, never, I don’t trust men enough, I mean I trust my men, but not other men,” she said and looked out again looking a little spaced out, “so please excuse me if I ever seem hostile.” She let out a soft sigh before she looked down at her hands that were folded gently in her lap and she felt a little awkward, what could she really say after that, and did she really want tp explain why she hated men so much?

Tristan KaneTristan laughed at her a little, "I understand your hostility. I don't trust men either." He then gave a large sigh.

Jessica looked up at him slightly confused, "But, you are a man," she said and she laughed softly as she smiled up at him, how could a man not trust men, surely that meant he could not trust himself.

Tristan KaneTristan laughed once more, but this time at himself. "I may be a man, but that doesn't make the rest of the world's men any more worthy of trust. I suppose I am not so trustworthy either." He laughed to himself a bit more and then looked back at his crew. He trusted his crew with his life, Perhaps it is only the men on land who untrustworthy.

Jessica blinked softly and looked away from him again nodding softly, “So where are we going?” she asked as she closed her eyes and let herself enjoy the warmth from the sun and she let herself lay backwards on the cool wood of the deck. She opened one eye looking up at him and gently shielding her face from the sun with one hand.

Tristan KaneTristan replied to Jessica's question. "We are going to 'Jad-Bal-Ja'. This is an island far to the west named for the golden lion that grants strength to the people. I was born there, and you will find that these people carve the golden lion into everything." He sighed at the idea of returning home.
The sun was beginning to lower itself now but it would still be some time before the sun completely set. Tristan noticed Jessica's hand blocking the sun. "Would you like to move somewhere else?"

"Never been there before," she said and smiled softly as she shook her head softly, "no, I don't need to move, its fine here," she said as she closed her eyes and let her hand fall to her side again.

Tristan KaneTristan was now lost in thought of Jad-Bal-Ja. It had been so long since he had been back, but he still expected everything there to be as it was. "When we arrive, you will notice a large statue of the golden lion. Do be warned that this island is that of the very poor and hard workers. Don't expect anything elegant." Tristan then looked back at his ship and saw Leo at the wheel. The wheel of the ship had a carved lion painted gold on it. Tristan's father had carved that lion into this ship.

Jessica smirked softly, "So, nothing good to steal then," she opened her eyes again and sat up a little, "but I guess I am looking forward to being on land, its been a long time since I have atualy set foot on land." Slowly and streached and ruffled her hair a little with a very gentle giggle, she atualy felt relaxed around Tristan, maybe because they were very much the same in many ways.

Tristan KaneTristan laughed at her comment about stealing. "No, I suppose not." He then found himself holding his stomach slightly as it began to ache from his laughing. It wasn't that funny, but he had lost himself a little. He then looked at Jessica smiling. "I believe you will enjoy this place. The people there are very happy." The sun had nearly set and now the sky was a fusion of deep pinks, purples and oranges.

Jessica looked up at him smileing and nodded softly, "Well I guess that I could go with relaxing around happy people, normaly the people I travel with are very stressed and worried." She sighed deeply and looked out at the sun set and she sighed very gently, "Beautiful," she whispered as she staired at the sky quietly.

Tristan KaneTristan looked at her with a little surprise. Hardly a glamorous life, that of a pirate. The people of Jad-Bal-Ja would certainly show her a change in pace and himself as well. It had truly been so long.
He then looked out at the sunset and gave a large sigh. Yeah...beautiful. As the sunset passed he then returned his gaze to Jessica. "Should I take you back to your room?"
