...huh, well it's a good thing you got the whole pirate thing down. It'll definitely make your life easier in this world.

[ But she does set aside her book. Looks like it was time to get serious if she wanted to get through to this guy. Though he did kind of remind her of her captain. That's cute. ]

Listen sweetheart, whatever world you originated from, you're not there anymore. I don't know this "Havanna" place not because I've never been there. But because it probably doesn't exist here. Do you understand?

Duw uchod

[It's muttered and irritated and welsh but he's not going to- nope. She called him sweetheart and is using that look that he's been tired of since he could notice people looking at him.]

I ain't your sweetheart, first of all. And second of all I don't need some high and mighty fussy looking lady talking to me like I'm touched in the head when she's the one talking about being on a different world all together and sounding like she should be carted to bedlam.

Well hey, I'm just trying to be nice. But if you don't want to believe me, then that's fine too. I mean, you'll figure it out soon enough.

[ Cue the sweet innocent smile. See, she's used to talking to crazy pirate men, and she was positive this guy would get along with her captain if the two ever met...speaking of meeting, she hasn't introduced herself yet. Whoops, how rude of her. ]

By the way, my name is Cynthia. Sinnoh league champion and quartermaster to the Hazmat Crew.

There aint much to figure out, there's a sea and ships upon it and people willing to pay for things to be done aboard them.

[Least complicated thing ever really, what's complicated is how she's insisting that it's not the same sea he knows.]

Edward Kenway, Captain of the Jackdaw. I've no idea what sort of champion you are but it isn't one of making sense.

Jackdaw huh? Never heard of it.

[ Bitchy? Or maybe that was her alternate way of getting through to him the message that THIS ISN'T YOUR WORLD DAMMIT. But the mention of being a captain does catch her attention. Clearly this guy has a whole lot more experience, and she could use more experienced men in her crew. ]

...but I'd love to hear more.

Her. A ship is a she not an it.

[Everyone who's ever been around them should know that as far as Edward believes.]

The Jackdaw's a fine brig, I've sailed her right out from under the noses of a bunch of fools who thought to sail in a hurricane. She was the only one to survive the storm and so she's home as much as the island and the sea she sails on.

[If he sounds like a proud father it's... not too far off really.]

Well she sounds like a fine ship and you must be one amazing captain. But what about your crew? What are they like?

[She was trying to sounds as interested as possible. Not because he was officially a candidate for scouting (when he stops being crazy), but because she was genuinely curious what a REAL pirate crew was like. Oh sure, her crew was top notch. Richest crew around with a shiny new ship to boot. But this guy just had a vibe to him. Like you just know he has some good stories. ]

They're a crew of proper men for the job, most I've helped out of spots and are willing to chase the prizes with me. When they tire of me or the Jackdaw they go off to their own way. Don't always get on but rum and money and a good fight keep us all happy as able.

[He shrugs about it, he cares about his crew and the others but they're not what keeps him going out.]

"Rum and money and a good fight" huh? You sound EXACTLY like my captain. I swear, you two would get along if you were to meet.

[ Or clash? After all, they were so alike it was a little strange. Cool because she was pretty much looking an the western reflection of her darling captain. But strange because...she's looking at the western reflection of her darling captain. ]

Actually, you two should meet sometime. Feel free to visit the Nightfury. We've got plenty of rum and not enough people to drink it.
