Jacoda was rather amused and during the time she was thinking he had placed her on her feet and was merely hold her securely by her hips. He secretly marveled in how they fit in his hands like they were molded to fit there perfectly. He shook his head. He couldnâ€™t allow him such thoughts of his hostage. She was merely holding his most valuable treasure hostage. It wasnâ€™t like this was a long term arrangement. Sheâ€™d eventually grow bored of hanging with him and hand it over. Would be his luck... He shook his head again. It didnâ€™t matter because the only reason he had taken her with was to keep ahold of his gun. Which she held quite neatly hostage. He merely looked at her as she thought. [i[]Get ahold of yourself Jacoda.[/i] He mentally scolded himself when his mind began to fantasize what life would be like if she was with him long term.<br/><br/>He held her close to him and as she said parley he swiftly and like a slip of the hand had removed her bindings and was merely holding her like he still had her hands bound together. He nodded his head. â€œIndeed...the first mate mutinied on me and so when I get my hands on him a swift journey to Davy Jones locker with be in store for he.â€ He said with an unhappy scowl. Then blinked as she mentioned ship. â€œYes. Commadeering a ship was of course the plan when I woke up on the beach of the place called california.â€ He listened to her intently. â€œYes! A grand adventure worthy of that of any pirate of the seven seas! I shall be the first pirate to have high sailing land adventures and thus return to the roaming of the sea a more worldly and adventure driven man of the sea!â€<br/><br/>If he sounded excited that was because he was. He listened to her as she pretended to sound bored by the idea. Ah...what a lovely dove she was. She could not help that hint of excitement that had lifted into her tone. He held her close. Apparently she thought he was still holding her damsel in distress style. He smirked a bit. â€œAye dove...you already be on the ground and free.â€ He said as he pushed her back a bit. Releasing her wrists to show her sometime during her thinking he had set her down AND removed her bindings. â€œYou were in awful deep thought there dove.â€ He said in a soft voice.<br/><br/>He now leaned against the wall like those of land who thought they were a bad ass bad boy. Only difference was....Jacoda was. He was a pirate captain after all. If any followed the news of the sea and even those that dontâ€™....theyâ€™d know the name of Pirate Captain Jacoda Crow...the most infamous pirate of the seven seas. A houdini who could out houdini and outrun even the fastest of ships. Though if you talked in circles youâ€™d also he was the craziest pirate to ever run the seven seas since captain Jack Sparrow. Hey...wonder if there is a coincendence in that? Nah...probably just a fluke. Or is it?<br/><br/>He looked at her and smiled impishly. â€œLet us begin dove. You shall be the navigator of our land faring adventures. For now...I shall commadeer a land vessel!â€! He said. He looked outside. â€œWell after the heat cools down. Give it another hour or two before drawing more attention our way. He shifted his pirate trench coat with its magic pockets. He pulled out a pack of cigarettes he had stolen from a ship they raided the other day. He flicked the lighter and put the flame to the cancer stick. He really just liked the buzz it gave his head. He didnâ€™t really enjoy smoking. He frowned and pulled it from his mouth and blew out the smoke. â€œHmm....other than the momentary buzz I really do not see the fascination with these tobacco sticks....â€ he threw it down and crushed it out. He kicked it out of his way.<br/><br/>He looked back at her and shoved the pack of cigarettes back amongst the numerous things in his pockets. He flashed a devilish smile. â€œWonder how man times we can piss off your daddy dearest before he goes cocoo for cocoa puffs.â€
