(The moon was still up even though the sun was coming up.)

(got it, thank you so much!)

"I was expecting you to be a bit later. You've exceeded my expectations, Jintao, well done."
The siren pushed off the beam, dropping back into the water, the white fabric drifting ghostly in the black sea beneath her dark hair.
"Allow me a few minutes to change, yes? I'll meet you both back here."
Nautalis gave Jintao a small salute before twisting and diving beneath the surface again, the flick of a turquoise tail sending a small fizz of silver bubbles simmering on the water's skin.

Jintao kept his stance with his gaze locked on Nautalis. He held his blade in an awkward way in front of him, ready to strike if needed. "You know her better than I do," he said without looking away. Keeping one's stare on a threat was a part of survival for his past life which he continued to use.
"I was expecting you to be on the docks, not below them."
He slid a little closer to Tay. "This, is our ticket to a ship and the Undermine," he replied.

Tay stood in a moment of silence, dropping her hands back to her sides.
"What kind of a ticket is that? Gosh. Gosh."
The closed box-knife slid easily into her dress, and she turned away, running fingers through her coarse hair.
"Tell me the plan. Please, explain the lunatical ideas you've concocted."

Galen landed rather jarringly on the edge of the cliff and ran for his home. Everything was just as he had left it when he burst through the door. He snatched a sachel from a peg on the wall and began carefully filling it with the necessary tools and bits of metal, wood, and leather. Quasar flew in the open door and alighted on his perch.
“We can't stay here,” Galen picked up his gloves and slid them on, fastening the straps, securing them to his wrists so they would not fall off. “We need to get back soon, the longer I'm gone, the more effort I'm going to have to put into keeping my hide.”
He thought about this as he rolled his cloak up and stashed it in his bag, he wasn't in any real danger, one flick in the right direction and it would be the scorpion, not himself, staining the deck. If there was one thing his childhood was good for, it was that. However, He preferred that it didn't go there.
“Alright,” Galen took one more look around, “Back we go,” he sighed.
He shut the door behind him and began the journey back to Pirates Cove.

Spoiler: Sorry excuse for a backstory,

Galen’s father was known amongst the Rebels as one of the Harpys more willing to carry out assassinations and with every successful mission, he became more proud of himself and wanted his son to follow in his footsteps. Galen however despised his father and the cruelness he showed while training and conditioning his son in combat and stealth. He did learn but vowed never to aid his father with the skills he had forced upon him.
One day his Father didn't come back from his nightly escapade and Galen was left alone.
Later, He took up bladesmithing as a hobby and then a source of some income in case he ever needed a bit of money.

Tay stood in a moment of silence, dropping her hands back to her sides.
"What kind of a ticket is that? Gosh. Gosh."
The closed box-knife slid easily into her dress, and she turned away, running fingers through her coarse hair.
"Tell me the plan. Please, explain the lunatical ideas you've concocted."

Jintao watched Nautalis leave. And I thought I was out of touch, and you're calling me "early?" he thought, almost disgusted. The siren truly didn't have any sailing experience if she didn't expect a pirate to wake before the sun. Weakness is what he viewed it as.
"You were the one that was supposed to get us a ship and this is what happens when I'm left in charge."
Jintao hid the dagger back into his pocket more to avoid attention than to put it away. He brushed past Tay and watched the sun as it rose.
"She hired me as an alley. I'm to help her get to the Undermine and back." He glanced over his shoulder and lowered his voice. "I might not complete the mission, but I will be willing to get you to the Undermine if that's where you plan to stay. As far as returning here, it's probably best that I don't."

(Do you want me to skip ahead to when Nautalis comes back?)

(I'll let @_-Captain BRM-_ decide on this. It doesn't matter to me either way, though, it might be helpful if Jintao and Tay straighten out their current situation first instead of skipping through it.)
