I HEARD, I HEARD ACROSS A MOONLIT SEA
THE OLD VOICE WARNING ME
BEWARE, BEWARE THE DAUGHTER OF THE SEA
BEWARE, BEWARE OF ME.

The term "partners" was a loose term to describe them, really. They had a single deal, and if it failed to go through, punishment would be in order. The Typhoon already held up their end, now it was time for the Pitt to hold their own, and she was impatient to hear his response. She knew all too well of how her crewmates may perceive this interaction alone, how she even let him speak in their presence, on their island, such a thought may be despicable, but it didn't hurt to be a gambler when you knew the right cards to play. She was prepared for any and every move that would come next, she is certain of it. The tiger stared at him silently, her nose twitching as he begins to respond. Dramatic as always. His basic personality was easy to get a grasp on and understand. It was almost too simple, really. A dramatic, greedy fox, ambitious enough to get what he wants. Perhaps on some levels she could relate to that basic ideal, but there is a key difference between the two leaders. That was clear enough hearing them interact.
As he confirms that he's ended slavery, she would allow a flicker of please form upon her features. Just the thought of that practice ending was satisfying towards the captain, though it would mean nothing if it wasn't true. She chose not to celebrate for longer than a second, returning to a more serious gaze. "We've had our share before," she would comment lightly, in passing, sighing silently. Escaped slaves have made their way to the free pirates, including herself and a number of her crewmates that'd been captured. The island always was a force to hold back those ideals, and eventually destroy them. She would be the one to see that through. If what the fox was telling her was in fact correct, then her job is mostly done. But, she needs to make sure that he is being genuine after all. Nonetheless, that wasn't the only part of her deal, though it was the largest, and she would perk her ears as he mentions the deaths of Ninazu and Stryker. "Shame I didn' get t' see that myself." There was a sincere, cold tone in that statement. She would have liked to kill them herself; it'd have been less work for Jervis, but if they really were dead, that was no doubt good. "Thank you for the update." A simple closing statement, no hint of suspicious within it, only a formal distance.

NOTHING'S EVER LOST FOREVER, IT'S JUST HIDING IN THE RECESS OF YOUR MIND AND WHEN YOU NEED IT, IT WILL COME TO YOU AT NIGHT. I MISS THE YELLOW. I MISS THE YELLING AND THE SHAKEDOWN. I'M NOT COMPLAINING, NO, I GOT A BETTER SET OF KNIVES NOW. I MISS MY DRUMMER, MY DEAD STEPBROTHER, AND THE PIT CROWD. AND CHUCK AND MATTY - IF THEY COULD SEE ME THEY'D BE SO PROUD.
