"I, myself, have never operated on a ship, but I have a deepened knowledge of the sea, and my abilities would be greatly useful in the event of a potential conflict."
Nautalis turned slightly to gesture to Jintao.
"My friend here has experience with sailing-" She pointed to Tay next, "-and this young lass here is quite the sleight of hand, and a feisty one. I'm certain they'll prove themselves useful."
The siren faced the Captain again, gently tugging her scarf away from her face.
Tay straightened and took in a slow breath, speaking through her exhale, "Oh, you are so creepy." She cleared her throat and let the bangs fall over her eyes. "Yes, yes, on both accounts. You're harboring a fugitive with blisters." She took another breath, then added in a quiet tone, "A grateful fugitive with blisters."(I’m only quoting this one for now, since Nautalis is directly addressing Vhanya
Vhanya crossed her arms, looking over each member of the trio.
”I’ll take you, if you’re all willing to join my crew for the time being.“
She pointed towards the varying Mythics that had begun to accumulate at the base of the gangplank, ”you ought to come to my cabin, my crew has arrived and I’d rather you not be in their way.”
She finished her sentence with a pointed sweeping of her hat towards the steerage, directing the Siren and her human companions. She noticed the man’s look of disapproval towards the display of her crazed Harpy in the ratlines. “If you don’t shoot him first, I will,” she chuckled.
Returning the hat to her head, she softly stepped beside the human girl and began to speak in a hushed, direct tone.
“You’d best be glad the bounty on your head isn’t enough to entice me- the fact is, you’ll be safest on this ship where your face isn’t plastered on every flat surface.”
Her eyes flicked down to the girl’s boots, “have you been treating them yourself?”
If this girl has any gift as a medic, I’ll have a surgeon yet. If she’s willing to cut off a leg is another matter….

You're harboring a fugitive with blisters." She took another breath, then added in a quiet tone, "A grateful fugitive with blisters."
The ship felt sturdy beneath her feet. Trust worthy, even. Memories flooded her mind, and scenes trapped her eyes in a repetitive flow, wringing her thin mind out until is spun with the shallow density of a thread coming loose from its spool. It was tenacious fear that gripped her so heavily, but she did not show it. She could not show it. The world has numbed, and it was simple to make cold again.
She would weep for the past later. But for now, her heart must stay intact.
Tay anticipated the woman's pivoting heel, and she mimicked the movement, shadowing Vhanya's form. "That's grateful blistered fugitive to you," she cocked her head, "Captain."Vhanya nodded, “good. I’ll speak with you later concerning your position aboard my ship-“ she fixed her eyes towards the waxed boards of the main deck, “-and by the by, I’ve known much worse than blistered fugitives.”
She turned to join the others, slowing slightly to adjust her hat and coat and to gesture for the girl to follow.

Jintao gave the Harpy one last look before following the women to the captain's cabin. He remained quiet, keeping his thoughts to himself. The planks was too clean and the materials looked too new. A new ship, he assumed, much to his dislike. She probably hadn't even seen a storm yet, say less a battle like Nautalis was hoping for.She turned catlike eyes back to her newfound shadow, “you-you’re welcome?” Her lip curled in the slightest, “no need to thank me yet, girl, you’ve barely set foot on my ship. I’m certain I’ll do something more pressingly deserving of gratitude later.”
She resumed walking.
