"Disposed of over the side of the ship," Chira says crisply in response to Xarius. "Like I said. My body digests quickly- best to not be weighed down on campaign." Still, she gave the feline a quick little nod and smile at his touch, the equine not being wholly business this morning. "Nobody seemed willing to fight. But they could have been staying away from me. Hard to say, when everyone else did not stand watch-" She stifles a yawn. "Nothing I am not used to, though." As he praises her indirectly, though, Chira stiffens visibly and scowls. "I would not have worked for them," she says in flat, cold tones. "And they would not have employed me..." trailing off, she says after a few seconds, "Ah. I understand. Thank you for the compliment," she says with a little tension in her voice, clearly forcing the polite response even though it was her who'd taken offense in the first place. "I will... remain near the ship until all of the goods we have to sell are taken off," she says after a few more seconds. "I think that would be for the best. For now." She folds her arms- she has a sword on her belt, but it would be like a knife in her grip. The ship, of course, hadn't had anything intended for someone of Chira's size.<br/><br/>The crew shoots him and the others a lot of quiet, sidelong looks as they work bringing the ship into port, none too sorry to be seeing the back of this lot soon enough. They... probably wouldn't be held too responsible for the escape. After all, all the officers were dead, and the Empire wasn't very enthusiastic about encouraging the lower ranks to take an abundance of initiative. As Xarius watches, something that *could* have been a mermaid splashes into the water on one side of the ship just out of his vision- by the time he turns to see it, there's just a broad iridescent tail slipping under the waves, cloudy water obscuring what came in front of that tail. Only ripples remain, soon after, and then even those are lost in the turbulent surface of the bay with as many ships as crowd it. Chira remains on the ship, nodding at the others, but Mona and Garth accept Xarius's help getting onto the pier; the latter with a very formal nod, the former contriving to half-stumble and wind up giving Xarius a still squishy-bellied hug to 'catch' her before twirling away with a grin. Nobody much takes notice of them as they set foot on dry land anew, the bustle of the lawless port more than enough to guard them from undue notice.<br/><br/>"What a pit," Mona says, looking up and down the way. "But yeah. You and the demoness are pretty charming, right? Probably be able to get the best price out of folks," she says. "Me, I got lost after the part of negotiation where I threatened to burn down shops if I didn't get something for free. I guess that's why they called it armed robbery and not haggling, though," she says without a trace of guilt. "But I'll be nice this time. Unless you want me to burn something down! Then I'm your lady," she says, fingering the purloined jewelry around her neck. "I'll be happy to join you for a drink before we get too into the shopping, though. I think Garth wrote up a list of everything in the ship...?" The half-orc nods, wincing in pain at the tightness of his recently healed wounds. "I did. And the ship itself. Just in case."<br/><br/>((Just something brief while Cass gets spun back up~ Wanna see her list before I go megashopping)
