"I-" he cleared his throat again. "I'm sorry, Captain." The sterness in his tone was gone. It was replaced by terror- terror he knew he had to hide or else it would be forever poked at my those wishing to see it again and again. "I meant no offense by anything I said."
His gaze found the floor again, hoping some old courage would somehow rise. He attempted eye contact with the Captain. She had already scolded him for being too shady. "Most captains care less about such matters and I assumed you'd be the same. I was wrong about you, Captain, and for that I apologize. You carry such traits that most captains tend to lack, and for that, you should feel honored."
Jintao's talk was going nowhere. He was stalling and Vhanya’s burning eyes told of her annoyance. His gut twisted to where it had earlier and his throat threatened to close up, suffocating him before anyone else could. His eyes stole a glance at Tay, where it had all started, and where he didn't want to speak. Lie to the Captain? No. She had already cut him deep enough to know which blood was lies and which was not.
"The girl there," his voice was thick. Idiot! Now's not the time! Don't call her that! "Apprentice, I mean." Gaze with the Captain was lost once more, falling to the floor and licking up the dust that wasn't there. "Uh..." Could his collar get any tighter? He brought his gaze back up, focusing on the Captain's ears because that's all he could do.
"I made the mistake," he rose his shoulders, guilt returning. "The apprentice-Lyra- has insight that I only wish I had." He was protecting her- he had to. This wasn't meant to be brought in the open, and he could say the very words that could very well pass any punishments he may receive onto her, but he couldn't- just couldn't. She had called him a coward and she was right. But further hurting her, right though he knew he was wrong, was something his very core stood against.  Now, he told himself, now that it's too late.
"We were talking like always, and I misheard her on something that I shouldn't of." Jintao's shoulders fell slack. Keeping an appearance no longer mattered. "It was something of my past she truly knows nothing about and would never say anything about it to hurt me, but I took her words that were meant as encouragement as something an enemy would say and acted accordingly. She wasn’t at fault, I was. And I know for sure there's nothing I can do to change it."
There. What more was there to say? Anything? No, not without revealing the lie he had been telling ever since he had lost his arm. This hopeless mess of a man should have never left his apartment that morning. His head hug, ashamed of his own existence and the actions that continued to haunt him. A moment passed, but nothing was said yet as he wasn't finished. He looked up again, knowing the Captain would soon speak. "If there's nothing more I can say over this, I will say this: It won't happen again. You have my word. I know how to control myself and I will for sure keep it that way."

"It's really nothing deeper than a rich misunderstanding," Tay agreed, hand falling away from her sweaty forehead, "Ember's apprehension is valid, and her protection was necessary."
She could not fray the truth so. Vhanya was sharper than a whetted sword.
"Mistakes were made, but do these things not happen in ship of men? Is a pecking order not to be established? This man is fresh with memory, and this ship has opened and rawed them. Give him time, my captain. No one here has meant offense."
Heat pulsed in her temples, smarting in time with her wrist.

(I did not proofread so enjoy 😊)

If I had been there, this would not have happened.
Vhanya broke her stare on Jintao to study a fleck of dirt under her nail. Some lack of respect, to think that I would not concern myself with such things. That I wouldn’t ensure that my ship in her entirety was kept clean, controlled.
Breath stung hot in her lungs. Every sip of the stifling air left her chest heaving. She felt her lips curl of their own accord. That I would make my grandfather’s mistakes.
Words rose from her throat, her own voice sounding through the blood that rushed at her ears. “Lyra, you will not go to his cabin again. Nor will you, Jintao, be seen in hers.”
She waved a hand in Bailey’s direction, “take Mr. Balìk’s knife,” her gaze sought the thin man, pinning him as she would with a well-placed strike of the tail, “you will not be in possession of any weapons until I deem you wholly trustworthy.”
Movement at the corner of her eye, Cyrus had stepped to the side of Jintao.
Exposed without her hat, her braid, this accursed event happening just beyond her grasp. She took a breath, sweeping strands of hair from her face. Her voice dropped, she could feel it in her breast, “this will not happen again.”

(@Amer, if Coal is still in the crow's nest, he probably would have seen them enter the Captain's cabin, and might still be there when they leave... idk if that's relevant or helpful at all, but just a note if you want to RP him again soon)

"Yes, Captain," Jintao said with a respectful nod. Tay's words had calmed the situation more than anything. He still bore a punishment, but it was nothing compared to what he had expected. He sat his hat on his head, further back than he usually kept it in respect of the Captain. Reaching into his pocket, he found the dagger- the very thing he had put so much of his trust in and the same thing that nearly ruined it all for him.
Cyrus came over and slowly, Jintao pulled out the blade. It's silver lacked it's shine as though it too, was feeling guilt and shame. He handed it to Cyrus, making a very futile attempt at eye contact, and removed his hat once the blade was taken from his hand.
This punishment- the restriction of no weapon- was the very same one the Royals had placed on him. They had warned him should he ever be caught with a weapon, it would mean his immediate execution, and here he was- caught with one and having it taken away as quickly as he had received it. The Royals were right, as much as he hated to admit it, he was untrustworthy. A pirate, one from the Destruction to be exact, who knew nothing but killing, and never would change.
