If he hadn’t been recruited by a pirate, then he would have thought the <em>Esperanza</em> was a commodore’s ship. Oval-shaped eyes ran along the ship’s flank, scrutinizing the wood and examining the sturdiness of the structure. He counted the gun doors as he took his time ascending the plank. <em>He</em> was a simple man compared to the colorful characters that had boarded the ship so far. His hair was short and black, raised in scattered, feathery blades (it was perhaps combed through by his fingers). His skin was a warm tan, his eyes slanted like a kitsune—a trait of his ethnicity—and the white tunic he wore hung off his shoulders like it was two sizes too big. Strings crisscrossed at his collar and the sleeves gathered at his elbow and wrist. His right hand was grasping the handle of an old wooden toolbox, and his left was clutching the sling of a travel sack that was stuffed like a sausage over his shoulder. His boots clung to his legs up to his shins and a pair of charcoal-black trousers strung about his hips.<br/><br/>When Ryu reached the deck, he took in several characters. A girl crouched like a cat with dead rats around her; a red-head peering down at him from the quarterdeck; a woman with a peculiar accent calling up to the girl—she had addressed her as captain. Ryu’s attention returned to the red-head. He wasn’t used to seeing a female captain. A dark-skinned man had informed one of the two gentlemen of his intentions. Besides the man who had hired him, Ryu listened to the other man (the Bosun) speak to him. Everyone had a funny accent to Ryu, and similarly, when they would get a chance to hear it, his accent was also unique. After taking in the faces, Ryu went straight for the steps that would take him down into the lower parts of the ship. He wanted to claim a hammock and set down his things. If they were to be setting sail soon, then he had only a few hours to build an intimate relationship with the <em>Esperanza</em>.</span>
