Meg followed him to the bar. "I didn't need you to help me. I could have handled it on my own." she said. "And the word lass brings back to many memories for me to be able to deal with hearing it. I wouldn't mind never hearing it again." she finished.

Bones snorted in luaghter, before turning to the girl.
"Sure, of course you didn't need help. A capable girl such as yerself coulda taken them two guys down. But then you'd turn the whole tavern over into a big brawl, and I just wanted a peacefull drink, not a fight. So I did it for meself, not to help you, got it? And another thing. Maybe yer new to the whole pirate thing, but yeah can't let yer past get the best of you. Let it go, forget what happened. Everyone in this building has something bad on their record, but they don't pick a fight about it really, do they? And if anything, a word ain't the best thing the grudge 'bout. Since no one else is likely to know yeah have a grudge against a word. Most brutes I know calls all girls lasses," he said, turning back to his rum, and taking a long drink. "So with that explenation that's likely to go in one ear and out the other. Would yeah please leave me to me drink? Go bother some other poor soal trying to drown 'is wit."

(you know what? I enjoy playing Bones. He makes me luagh)

((He made me laugh, too.))

Megan narrowed her eyes at the man she didn't even know. She thought about drawing her sword and showing him what she was made of, but she thought better of it. She would never see this man again, so why did it matter? And he was right, she thought, though she hated to admit it. She breathed in deeply. She marched out of the bar with a smoldering temper. She made her way down the dark, muggy street. Past the many beggars and to a hotel that might have been pretty decent if it got more money. She payed for her room, then walked to it. It was upstairs, and on the corner of the building, it had a nice view of the harbor... She produced an apple from her pocket and munched on it. Freedom. The only word that came to her mind. After she was done with the apple she made her way to the bed. She sat on the edge of the bed and removed her cloak, belt, two of the hidden daggers she had, and her boots. She then layed down, pulled the thread-bare quilt onto her body, and fell asleep.

Bones sighed with relief that the girl didn't antagonize him any longer, and just left. Finally he could drink his wits away alone, in peace. And in the morning, he'd track down a crew to join. It was past midnight when he finnished his last bottle of rum, and stumbled up to his room. He plopped down on the bed, cloths and all, to fall into a deep, dreamless sleep...

(Edit: I think we can go to morning now, lol!)

((right you are!))

~Morning~

Alex tumbled out of bed, cursing. He stumbled to his pile of haer, and slung his powder horn ove his shoulder, readjusted his kilt, and picked up his tam o'shanter, setting it on his head and making his way to the docks. A single Redcoat stood guard, so Alex cut the man's throat, and lowered him into the water. Then, he jogged to his ship, the Claidmeagh. It was a moderatley-sized Brig. Capable of both raids and combat. Standing on the boarding ramp, he waited for his crew. The pieces were falling into place.

Levi was the first to arrive. For a moment she just stood there, sizing up the ship, taking in every detail in one long glance. She pursed her full lips, and took a single step onto the boarding ramp, to find the new captain infront of her. There was a moment of silence, then she spoke.

"I don't think I gave ye my name last nigh'. I'm Levania Karelle. But just call me Levi," she said curtly...

Alex nodded, and held out his hand. "Pleasure, Levi." She was pretty enough, and looked to be in her mid-twenties. A bit young for this sort of venture but, who was he to judge?

Levi nodded, and in turn shook his hand. They say you could tell alot about someone by their handshake. And her new captain had a firm, calused shake. So she wasn't surving under someone lacking in experience, then.

The redhead then turned to gaze out to the sea.
"So... I'm the first 'ere? I hope we don't hafta wait long."

Andrew McCoffrey swaggered down to the docks, full of himself (and rum) as per the usual. He spotted the ship with ease and made his way up the ramp, humming an Irish folksong as he went. He hoped that this venture would be better than his last.

Alex stared at the half-drunk pirate as he strode past him up the ramp, completely dumbfounded. "Remin' me agin' why ah hired 'im?" he asked Levi, looking unsettled.

Levi watched the partly drunk man walk past them on the ramp. She raised an eyebrow at him, before turning away with a chuckle at the Captain's question.
"Ye needed a crew, I believe. An teh go against England, ye need every man, or woman, that ye can get," she replied, now starting to wonder how this was really going to turn out...

Meg woke up with a start. Darn, she thought. She only had a few minutes to get to the ship. She quickly grabbed her stuff and was out the door. She ran down the steps to the downstairs lobby, then jogged through the doors onto the dirty street. She passed many a beggar sleeping or wandering around. She was passing a small bakery when she caught a wiff of the bread they were baking. She ran in and bought a small loaf real quick. She then continued jogging down the street. She slowed when the docks came in view. She walked to the ship where she saw the captain waiting for the rest of his crew. She walked up to him, "Good morning, Captain." she said with a pleasant voice.

Alex frowned and hauled the man to his feet. "Ah'll hae none o' tha'. No man shall acknowledge another as 'his superior, ye, ken?" he snapped, turning to look at his crew. "On boards, the lo' o' ye. We're not here to wast time, noo." he said, heading on board and raising his standard: The saltire of St. Andrew crossed with claymores beheading a red-clad man. A symbol of the country's intentions; the whole reason for this venture. He stood on the rear feck and drew his claymore. "Hark! This day we sail fer freedom, and justice! Agains' the tyrrany o' England! Le' the Jacobite blood on Culloden field be our reason! Le' the British be our foe! FOR SCOTLAND!" he roared, and slashed the mooring lines. "Give 'em a volley, lads!" he shouted, pointing his sword to the harbour.

((Eru, if I were you, I'd have Bones RUN! Alex'll throw him a mooring line.
