I HEARD, I HEARD ACROSS A MOONLIT SEA
THE OLD VOICE WARNING ME
BEWARE, BEWARE THE DAUGHTER OF THE SEA
BEWARE, BEWARE OF ME.
[align=center]She did not recognize the first to arrive, which wasn't really surprising. She didn't consider herself knowing more Elysiums than their leader, who she only barely would recognize when the female would later arrive. The tigress would nod to the thanks, and then smile, slightly amused, at the question of conditions. She'd open her mouth to respond before being interrupted by the approach of their leader. The captain's eyes lock onto the smaller female, tail tip twitching. "I remember. Pirate capt'n Goldenluxury Roux," she would return the greet, introducing herself, though she's confident the leader remembered her name. More folks than she'd realize ended up being able to recognize her solely based off her appearance.
"I have a faster source than most to these sorts of news," it was partially hinting towards the fact she had a spy in the Pitt, but still vague enough that she wasn't outright revealing it. Not even her crew knows of this - only the few she selected to. It would be foolish to spread the news of a spy in the Pitt. For now, they didn't suspect anything. Nonetheless, that wasn't the point, and Tena was quick to figure out what was. Good to see she's not working with any dumbasses. "Was it that obvious? 'm glad we can get t' the point then." She lets out a chuckle, flashing a quick grin to them both before settling into a more neutral expression. To be honest, she didn't see much need to fall heavily onto any persuasion or manipulation tactics for this - it was pretty straight-forward, and she saw no downfalls for any of them. "Is' no secret we've all got our reasons for hatin' the slave-holdin' assholes." Oh, she had more reasons than most.
"N', 'm not really lookin' to form any sort of ever-lastin' alliance bullshit out of this," there was no need to set up false hope. Besides, they probably weren't too keen on allying a bunch of pirates, seeming to be a more docile, noble type. "But, Tanglewood n' the Typhoon have already burned 'em t' mark our message: We will fight. Whatever outcomes anyone desires out of this war, I don' really care, I intend to achieve m' goals by m' own means. I am simply offerin' an easier time for everyone to, at the very leas', beat the Pitt." It's a simple idea, and it was a bad move on Jervis' part to make enemies with more folks than he needed to, as far as she saw it. It just meant more eyes locked onto him, in a very negative light. Fighting eyes. "There's strength in numbers, n' 'm jus' here to invite y'all t' work wit' Tanglewood n' the Typhoon t' win this war. Nothin' more."
She cocks her head to the side slightly, shrugging her shoulders once. "I didn' come here t' trick anyone or make 'em work for me. I saw an opportunity with this recent attack, n' 'm sure y'all wouldn' mind takin' it. 'Course, you can always deny. Either way, they'll end up losin' eventually." Goldenluxury Roux was not a liar, in most situations, and she certainly remained genuine now.

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.
