Gallow smiled back at Hitomi "I'm at your service, whenever you need me captain."  He watched as she changed, her body becoming a dark blue, and filling out into an even more seductive form.  As she few away to converse with the crew members up in the crows nest he felt the effects of her pheromones lessen and he found that he missed it slightly.  He shook of the feeling and thought that he best keep at his work making sure the ship was ready to sail when the time came.<br/><br/>He saw Marcus and Hitomi fly off into town, and hoped that they would not do anything too impulsive.  They were so close to their departure time, he did not like complications, and he did not like being stuck at dock for too long either.  As he checked ropes, and gears, and pulleys he wondered what the rest of the crew was up to, it had been a while since he had seen the first mate, with the captain of the ship she was now in charge of making sure things ran smoothly.<br/><br/>He had made his rounds and made sure everything at deck level was satisfactory, now he had to make sure the rigging around the sails and masts were secure.  He focused his attention on the tall cross beam on the mast and made a throwing motion with his right arm.  This caused his right hand to sail upwards attached by a thick rope to his arm.  The hand grasped the mast and he pulled him self up, the distance of the rope between arm and hand growing shorter until he was able to pull himself up onto the mast near the crows nest.
