If Mr. DeGroot is willing.

[pyrazine]

Are there weird things about women on ships that might stop me?

Because I can dress like a boy.

[hornswoggle]

I appreciate the willingness to disguise yourself, though I don't think it's necessary. A set of pants would be helpful, just to keep up.

[ doesn't every woman walk around armed to the teeth. ]

Mr. DeGroot's the most knowledgeable man aboard. The men won't bother you once it's made clear you're there to learn.

[pyrazine]

Yeah. Good.

Hey.

And if you know someone who won't give me a urinary tract infection, send him my way.

[hornswoggle]

I'll consider it.

[pyrazine]

Is it because you think I'm too good for them or the other way around?

Do you only know sailors with the ah. The crap?

[hornswoggle]

The clap. And I'm sure I know a few without it, but I wouldn't advise taking your chances.

[ though the question of who was too good for what is somewhat trickier. it's not about any of that. it's about keeping the men focused, and discouraging attachments. ]

Are you that set on taking a sailor to bed?

[pyrazine]

No.

[She huffs a little.]

Anyway. Talk to your Mr. Groot.

[hornswoggle]

Mr. DeGroot.

[ law. ]

I'll be in touch once I have an answer for you.
