After resucing Jack Sparrow and young Jim Hawkins from the dasterdly Long John Silver and finding first mate Steve Whitmire, Samantha and Steve's long lost friend Brian Henson, Captain Kermit Smollett heads Indy Sparrow's ship The Dark Diamond back to England.
Smollett is in his cabin speaking with Sybil aka Cuddle, hoping to turn her from piracy.
Steve was speaking with Samantha on deck, doing the same. Sam is in her bunk with Indy questioning her.
Brian is resting from heat stroke with Jack, grudgingly, tending to him and Jim, Gonzo and Rizzo are eating in the galley.
-------
"Why do you think you enjoyed it, Sybil?" Smollett asked, careful not to sound accusing.

"What was what?" Sam asked as she sat on her bed and got out her journal to write in.

(Dude I totally forgot I had Indy follow! Fixed!)
"What were you talking about?" Indy couldn't hide the jealousy.

"He was telling me that I should get a job somewhere." Sam said. "That's all. Is anything wrong?" she asked, letting her hair down.

"A job somewhere?" Indy scoffed, "Is that is? Is that all?" She didnt seem to believe her.

"He helped me come to the conclusion that Jack Sparrow, your brother never has or will care for me the way I wish him to." Sam said. "He helped me realized how foolish I was to think that something could have happened between us."

"Oh something could," Indy said and felt a bit foolish for being so jealous. She sat on Sam's bunk, "It wouldnt have lasted long though."
(Hey Cuddle you wanna be Jack? Cuz he just kind roams and I'm a bit tired of being EVERYONE save for Cuddle and Sam.)

Sam shrugged. "I never started, so I guess I have nothing to worry about then." she said a little sadly.

(will do if you give me a quick summary of what he's been up to except of being locked up in the brigg)
Cuddle raised her head and looked right into the frog's face, unblinking. 'I liked it, alright? The adventure...combat, the rush of euphory when you were the one that survived, that still stood after a battle, while your enemy's blood dried on the planks. I never killed anyone who wouldn't have killed me in return, either.'

"I'm sure that's true," Smolllet spoke seriously, not the slightest him of mockery in his voice. "Have you ever been caught before? What was the longest jail sentence you were given?"
---
Indy put a hand on Samantha's shoulder, then after a moment she spoke, "Steve's right. You should go with them. They've giving you the chance to have a good life; to do what's right. Good for you for taking it. It's the smart thing to do. Forget about Jack." Indy said after a pause, "You'll do much better than him." For it seemed in the romantic department the Sparrows were cursed. They both seemed to find love easiliy enough, but it always ended quiet badly.

Cuddle let out a short, bitter laugh and uncovered her wrist again. 'Course I have been caught, captain. Or do you think this is the latest fashion in Paris?' She saw his expression change, and went on in a more civil tone. 'I have been caught once, when I was branded. Captain Bryn didn't make it, but we others got a reprieve. I was sentenced to twenty years in prison, but...somehow I did not feel comfortable in my cell and escaped after two years.' She took a step away from Smollet. 'And I am NOT going back there!'

Sam nodded. "I will." she said. She sighed and closed her journal and placed it on the bed beside her.

Smollett did not appear angry as she yelled, but merely thoughtful, if not doubtful. He gave a nod, "I'll see what I can do, Sybil. You may leave."
----
Indy smiled to the girl and touched her shoulder again, leaving and going to the bunk she had left Jack in with Brian, who was still sleeping.
"Any change?" She asked.

Sybil wavered, about to say something else, then nodded. 'Thank you, Captain Smollet.' She said respectfully, then turned and left.

Smollett nodded again. Now quite unsure what to do with her. He wanted to help, badly, but with a twenty year sentence what could he do? With a sigh he walked out to the deck. They could not go back to England, he knew.
"Mr. Whitmire," Smollett called to his younger friend, who turned from the deck.
The frog captain could scarcely believe Steve was alive. And with his ragged beard and hair and pirate clothes, Steve unsettled the captain, making the frog feel even more out of place, though Steve knew none of this.
"Yes, captain?" Steve came up to him, beaming, probably glad just to be alive.
"Turn the ship around. We'll make berth for Paris."
"Paris, sir? But we came from there just last month." Steve looked curious, even more so at Smollett's concerned face.
"It was a month and a half," Smollett corrected. The poor boy didn't even remember. "But I am aware. I am also aware Jack Sparrow is possible wanted for murder and from what I understand from his sister deservingly so. However she has friends there and so do we." Then he added in a quieter voice, "Also, I don't think Sybil will have a chance for redemption in England."
Steve nodded, and set out to the helm.
(Jackkk? With Indyand sleeping Bri?)

Sam got up off her bed and went to walk around the deck.

Steve smiled to Sam, walking up to her after setting the course and securingthe wheel. "We'll be heading for Paris, Samantha. Smollett will find work for you there. Perhaps whoever we find will need two girls and you and Sybil can say together... Any objections?"
Steve was of course unaware of Indy's plans for Samantha the first time they had made for Paris on this trip. Indy was so angry with the young girl she had planned on letting her preist friend Aramis find a mistress for her. Apparently after Athos was shot, Indy forgot all about it.

Sybil sauntered across the deck and tried to find a way out of her current situation. She didn't want to go working as a maid somewhere. But she did not want to be hanged, either. Finally, she could only find one solution, and went below deck once more. 'Jack? Jack! Wake up, we need to talk.'

"No, I don't have any objections." Sam said. "It's better than being hanged for being a pirate."
