Mack's jaw clenched, he caught himself looking where he oughtn't and quickly let his hazel gaze meet her eyes. "The peaches may be nice and ripe but they ain't worth the trouble of the tree." He said while walking past her and went back into his workstation for parts. Plans were no good if they didn't allow for life's unexpected twists. That's why Mack only made ones he considered flexible. He re-emerged carrying some sturdy pipes over his shoulder and a bulbous pumpkin sized boiler under his other arm. "I don't see why you're so fashed about plans, lass." The tall mechanic shook his head and gave a gravelly amused chuckle.<br/><br/>"Shopping and all that frilly crap can be done any other day. What's so pressing that two days will matter in the long run?" In his opinion nobles had too much time on their hands and only used it for selfish purposes. That's what got them into trouble so often. After unloading the parts on deck, Mack looked over at the lovely noblewoman with a smug grin on his face. He'd prove his point and hopefully be able to work without anymore whining over what was probably nothing more than a hat sale.<br/><br/>"Alright miss. I'll make you a special deal. You tell me what can't possibly wait for the standard repair time and I'll not only replace the boiler...I'll go with you as your repairman for the whole trip. Just in case anything else on this money trap starts falling apart." He crossed his strong arms confidently. "Oh and bonus, I won't charge you a penny." Leaning against the engine room doorway he waited eagerly for an answer. Sure, there was the risk of her actually having something legitimate but Mack assured himself that couldn't be the case. Unfortunately he wasn't one to break promises either...
