Jenn smirked. "You know me well enough to know I ain't leaving us fully unarmed," she said as she watched him get up.<br/><br/>She knew the sword he was talking about. Aside from the fact that the shape of the bronze sheath reminded her of a penis, the sword itself extended to almost 3 feet in length when opened. When closed, it was of the perfect length to hide in her boot. And yes, it did chop the nose off a thug a few months back, who attempted to pick Xev's pockets after they had made a delivery and were paid. When the guy very conspicuously bumped into the captain, Jenn instinctively pulled the sword out of her boot, and swung the blade in front of his face. She had only meant to scare the guy into giving back what he stole, which she certainly succeeded in doing. She just didn't mean to leave the guy with only half a nose. It was certainly an occurrence that Xev hadn't stopped occasionally teasing her about, anyway.<br/><br/>Jenn put her hand out for Xev to help her up, receiving the reaction she had expected: a raised eyebrow and a look of amusement. She grabbed his hand anyway and pulled herself up. She moved close to him and put her arm around him, taking his dirty cloth out of his back pocket, and once she found a less-filthy spot on the cloth, dabbed her forehead with it.<br/><br/>"Thanks!" she said with an overenthusiastic smile, once again reaching her arm around him and tucking the rag back in his pocket.<br/><br/>"What worries me isn't that they want to hide her with us. What worries me is their motives, and hoping they're not going to pull one on us. But if all you want is easy money, then so be it," and she added with a wink, "I think you just like the idea of heisting a companion." Jenn would be lying if she had said that thought hadn't crossed her mind.<br/><br/>"And cheap or not, that gin has alcohol content. I'm going to get more." Jenn started to walk back through the cargo area but stopped and turned around. "By the way, the parchment said to meet just before sundown. How do you propose we suffer this heat until then?"
