Well, I see you've got no qualms about moving fast. That's something. Still, I demand more than speed from my crew. I don't know you have what it takes.

Yes, crew. You weren't expecting to be in charge, were you? Oh, no. My ship, my rules. You're only here because I'm allowing it.

Best you stay on my good side. Unless you're willing to fight for it.

And what might have tipped you off?

[loveislayered]

The uh....hook for a hand?

[Have an uneasy smile]

[unhand]

Sharp girl. [Yeah, it's pretty obvious.] Some call me that, aye. The name's Jones, though. Captain Killian Jones.

And who might you be?

[loveislayered]

I'm Belle. Just...Belle for now.

[Formerly a princess and now a librarian]

[unhand]

Just Belle. [He smirks at her.] You've heard the tales, then?

[loveislayered]

I've heard rumors. I used to work at a tavern not far from where the dwarves mined.

[And before that she was a housekeeper]

I've always wanted an adventure all of my own. Far off lands, exciting new things to see! Stuff I could only read about it books...

[unhand]

And yet, no one reads about tavern wenches who spend all their time with books instead of having adventures. I wonder why.

[loveislayered]

No one reads about housekeepers either.

[She can understand sarcasm, she just chooses to ignore it for now]

I guess being Rumple's housekeeper was enough of an adventure for a lifetime.

[Uh oh. Wrong name to bring up]

[unhand]

[And now he looks interested.] That does sound like an adventure. You must have learned lots poking around his things.

[loveislayered]

Yes, I suppose I learned a thing or two.

[Or more. Like he'd had a son, he'd been human once. How he liked his tea. That he hated fairies with a passion and that magic always came with a price]

[unhand]

Tell you what, love. Share a tidbit or two and I'll make you rich enough to take those adventures of yours.

[loveislayered]

What would you do with such knowledge?

[She wasn't really considering his deal. Money had never compelled her. Adventure, however, was a whole different siren]

Why would you want to know anything at all about Rumpelstiltskin?

[unhand]

[A shrug.] Got a debt that needs paying.
