[ Waking up in a weird new place, Jet is almost used to- or at least not very surprised once it does happen. He considers it an occurrence every time he wakes up in the stupid magical castle, even after four months of being there.

But waking up on an old fashioned ship, on the water, with a hook where his artificial left hand should be?

Oh, this is bullshit.

He strongly supports hitting the deck and trying to figure out what the hell is going on. ]

[Kaylee is up there, in shorts and a tank top (since she hasn't changed into her provided pirate-clothes yet), but unlike him, she seems to be beaming from ear to ear]

[ ... Women. Never understand 'em. ]

What are you so happy about?

Jet?!

[she recognizes the voice before she turns and, for the first time, actually learns what he looks like. Somehow, his voice fits him...though the arm wasn't something she was expecting. She doesn't stare, though. Living with a pack of criminals makes you pretty good about not getting too nosy about such things]

You're Jet, ain't you?! [happy mechanic is happy]

[ Unexpected recognition, ahoy! He nods for the sake of answer and greeting, and it could probably be said that his expression isn't quite as unpleasant as it was.

In fact, it could be said with some level of certainty, because he likes to be boss at recognition when he can. ]

Kaylee, right?

That's me! [a grin]

Fancy meetin' you in a place like this.

Yeah, some kinda luck. [ stupid castle, changing whenever the hell it feels like it. ] I didn't figure I had to worry about waking up on the water.

It ain't so much a worry though, right? I mean... it might not be a space ship or nothin', but it's a ship.

One step closer, huh? [ Hook-hand heading up because that's his favorite head-rubbing hand- akfjdsl wait. damn it. ] And this must be the price I pay.

Who knows? Maybe next time we'll get on a proper ship, out in the Black.

[she hesitates when he catches himself] *Aiya... you mean...that ain't usual?

Well, the hook isn't. [ Eyeing it with all the distaste. All of it.

What is a person even supposed to be able to do with one of these? ]

It went and stole your arm?!

I know there's been all sorts of folks wakin' up with different sorts of clothes and the like...but...

[ It takes him a couple of seconds to realize how that one may have come off sounding, but realize he does. ]

Not the whole arm! [ Aha, his bad. Going ahead and looking back to the artificial limb. ] ... I lost the arm a long time ago.

[ Past is the past. Today's annoyances are the ones to deal with. ]

But I definitely remember paying for a replacement with five fingers. [ The best this hook is doing is swiveling in place B| ]

Oh.

[that's still a little disturbing. She can't imagine waking up with a hook where a hook wasn't supposed to be] Guess it figured that was a bit more in line with bein' pirates...

I've never seen a pirate with a hook for a hand. [ Not entirely impossible with space pirates, though, he guesses. Just. Why would they pick one. ]
