JACK
Amid Lazarus's low rumbles of laughter, two shadowy ghosts appear in the doorway to the kitchen. One, of course, is the ship's captain, Jack's blue eyes dark in the gloom of belowdecks, his shoulder leaning casually against the doorframe to watch Theea mill about like a good little worker. A very good little worker, he's noted, not just from Bassian or from the thoughts of all the other crew she's been around, but in particular from both the mind and remarks of the shorter man at his side. A man who is pointedly not Bassian.
The Ark's first mate is olive skinned and dark haired with eyes as black as sin, and whilst Bassian might have been the one tossing her the orders, Murphy has been making note of every single one, silently judging her ethic, her skill, her willingness to learn. Jack has plucked the words enthusiastic and adaptable from his head in just the past few moments, translating that to malleable for himself, and it's after Murph's quick nod that he speaks up.
"Take a bowl," he says, voice smoother now than the rough tones of the morning. "You're in. We leave in an hour. If you get sky-sick, you're cleanin' it up. An' that whether it's on the deck, or on the outside of the ship."
