Oh coins! Shiny!

He crouched low and picked up a piece, caked with dirt from all the years this ship lay abandoned. "Really old these coins, kinda look like Galleons to me" he muttered as he peered closely, rubbing his thumb across its surface to wipe off the grime. He looked up at Treyen when the younger boy was talking about the ship being a merchant vessel. The Slytherin lad shrugged "Well yeah I suppose, but if it was transporting gunpowder for sale I'd expect a lot more of it here, not to mention more artillery and military equipment to go with the whole deal." And from what they've seen above and now below deck, it didnt look like there were enough canons and artillery other than those that comes part of the ship.

He looked back down at the coin in his hand, and at the handful of those scattered on the dank floor "And if it was a merchant vessel, wouldnt there be like, more money or something? Seems to me like these are just pot money from the crew playing cards or games or something."

Between talk of the Slytherin girl fearing an explosion and Ellie fearing that the ship was so dank and leaky it was going to sink, the 18 yr old Slytherin had to laugh "Would you guys relax? The Headmaster is standing above deck, him and Deputy Vindy invited students to check the ship out, if it was dangerous you really think they would let us get on this thing?" He stood up and wiped his hands on his pants, ~~and deftly pocketed the gold piece~~ he turned his head suddenly at the bickering ruckus descending down the hatch.

Ah finally his Gryffincess was coming down the the lower deck! Oh and look she dragged the Kitchen Eagle along.

He grinned expectantly but a brow went up when he realized that her voice sounded tenser than usual. Thats not how his Luv usually is-- she was fearless, nothing scared her. He recast the lumos spell a bit stronger, lighting more of his way as he neared them "Well Luv I'm pretty sure this was a fine ship when she was brand new, but now she needs a little TLC you know." Then he saw Ivan's ripped pant leg and smirked "Uh yeah and watch your step around here man, you'll never know what you'll run into." he advised belatedly, trying to keep himself for laughing it up further with Lexi's hand prints all over the Ravenclaw's jacket. Wait is he leaving? "Hey where you going Ivan? Adventure's just starting. Dont wanna miss out on the fun do you?"

"I'm trying to move," she said to Treyen, rolling her eyes though she knew it would be hard to tell she'd done so here in the near darkness. She sighed, wondering if the Puffer Prefect would ever get a move on. If they stood here forever, though, they'd never get anywhere. But here. Okay, that was a confusing thought. "Fine," she mumbled to him. With her wand pointed to the right, she moved forward. She was so annoyed with the situation in general that she didn't have time to even think about being sort of leery of what was ahead.

Feeling someone's extra long nails pierce right into her back, Sierra winced a little and then spun around. Her wand was pointed straight ahead, illuminating the face of one Lola Jones. "Lola!" she snapped. "There are...lots of other people here. Go and tag along with one of them." Pierce your nails into one of their backs! Follow directly behind them, breathe down their necks and invade their personal space!

She rolled her eyes and then turned back around, trying to make some sort of effort to go forward again. Maybe if she walked extra fast, she could lose Lola Jones!

"Okayyy," she said to Salander, "It's not gonna sink. I get it." It still could, though.

And they were going right. Ellie turned to that direction and tried to maneuver thataway.

Could they blast people out of their way? Like that Lexi-Quidditch-Quitter girl?

Heh.

Oh, so, wait. Salander was looking for souvenirs, eh? Well, then, the coins looked like the only thing he could take, unless he wanted to make some fireworks on his own, in which case, he could take the gunpowder as well. Treyen will make sure he wouldn't do such a thing, because their Common Room were slightly close.

The boy laughed, though, Salander would've been an awesome pirate. Much too awesome to comment on it. Of course, the original Sir Awesome, being Fletcher, would be the best in any leadership position, so, he'll run this ship perfectly well.

For a moment there, the smile on Treyen's face was dimmed by the thought that Fletcher was not around, even if he'd seen the Gringott's young man over the summer, he still missed having him around at Hogwarts.

But, er, right, souvenirs. The fifth year wasn't precisely sure he wanted to take one coin...even if it could be for Aslan...what if they were cursed or something, eh? That was actually kind of silly. Salander was still standing. And the sixth year falls over a lot. Maybe it brought luck? As the boy hesitated whether or not to take a coin, he shook his head at Salander, "That's if you're assuming that the ship was never sunk, or occupied by others before us," he started to say, "Maybe it was attacked by some pirates and they stole plenty from the crew," no, wait, that didn't make sense, [b]"No, scratch that, the pirates would've taken everything, even the ship,"[b/] TRUE, no?

And he would've continued on and on and on and on about the ship, but the smile from his favorite Ravenclaw completely diverted his attention, from both Salander and the coin. It was perfectly clear, though, that she was still thinking on the possibility of the ship sinking on them, never mind what she'd said to Salander.

It had gotten too crowded, though, and that was probably why Sierra had said she was TRYING to move, but really, there was still room for more people, and there was NO need to sigh. Sierra got in the ship before him, and she'd agreed to climb down. "You know, I think your brother would be a great addition to our group," he said, out of nowhere, "He could light up everything from the top," and carry anything they wanted, yes? "You're clearly the joyous choice," it was hard to distinguish whether it had been sarcasm or if he'd truly meant it, because now he was following after Sierra, yes?

Leaving Salander behind seemed like the best thing they could do, especially now that Lexi joined him and was...discussing something he wasn't interested in.

As for the coin? He decided on not taking it, it wasn't his to take, either way, and it felt like stealing. Gold or not, he wans't going to take something that didn't belong to him. Such a Hufflepuff.

He HAD to let go of Ellie's hand so they could start walking, because Sierra's friend, whose name he now knew to be Lola, was standing in the way. "What made you come down here, by the way? To the ship, I mean." His eyes were on Ellie, because the question was for her, just for her, though, Lola was free to answer, she seemed like one who liked to intrude.
