"Maybe so. But I'm keen to find out what it is she's been on about all this time. It's infuriating having her dangle scraps before us and then laugh about us not being fed." She scowled at the open air, in the hopes it would one day reach its target. She then turned to Jack with a smirk.

"But I have to tell you something. You don't play things very close to the vest mate. Or perhaps not as nearly as you'd like to think." She was sure the man still had a few secrets up his sleeve but she figured the jab wouldn't kill him. "A job keeping the peace, eh? If I didn't know better I'd imagine you were more of a rogue like me and mine. Your face and your voice are too pretty for honest work. How did you come across such an appointment anyway?

Jack grins widely at Kidd. "Too pretty for honest work, well, you're not wrong. Although I'd have to say the same about you, but you've never pretended to be honest." Jack likes that.

"There is a time and a place for playing things close to the vest. And this. Aint. It. Everybody else is hiding things from us, we need to not hide things from each other." A pause, as Jack considers Kidd's words. "You're right, though, this is more open and loose than I usually run things."

But how did he get here? "It was really..accident. And a long story, as to why I ended up on the right side of the law, then the wrong, then the right again, then....sort of...making up my own rules?" Jack's head tits farther and farther to the side as he thinks about it. "Wow. I can try to explain it, but the short version is that I just kept moving forwards. You never quite know where your life is going to take you, when you're living it in the moment?" He looks back to the self-proclaimed pirate, and he has a feeling Kidd will understand exactly what he means.

Kidd nods and she offers Jack a smile. "I appreciate you bein' up front. As you said far too many people seem to be playing their cards close and then expecting us to follow their lead. I haven't liked it from the start."

Listening to his story she chuckles and absently adjusts her cuffs, "Sounds a bit like my own life as well. I started out on some odd paths but I made a life of following the wind. The most important thing I've learned over my years is that folk need to be free to make their own choices, good or ill." She looked Jack up and down. Perhaps she'd ask him what he thought of her Creed once this all calmed down.

"So, with your voice of experience, what do you suggest we do?"
