[ As he looks over the scrolls, Mary goes about tugging her red bandanna off, removing the hair tie and shifting the corset that holds her chest bound while she's in disguise as James Kidd. She's planning to call it a night soon, and she doesn't have to worry about keeping appearances up around Edward. That's an appreciated thing. ]
In a villa I raided along with some other a few months back.
[ And to be frank, she's never been much to track treasures unless she's in need of the coin. She's comfortable enough as she is at the moment. ]
I'm between ships and got no time to track whatever it leads to at the moment.
[The movement catches his eye, and he glances at her from the corner of it while pretending to still be looking over the map. Her hair falls over her shoulders, and it somehow gives her a softer look. Or maybe he's just that drunk.
He definitely doesn't look away when she begins to mess with her corset.]
Perhaps I could do the tracking for you, in that case. Split the findings fifty-fifty.
[ Welp, that sure is Edward Kenway staring at her chest like it's a pot of gold. Christ, but the man's so predictable, and she's chuckling a little at the reaction, thought not pausing in the action as fingers tug at the lacings of the corset. ]

[ Spoken pointedly, eyebrows raised. Messing with him could be fun, and really, it's not like he's not attractive, body or personality. Edward's a good man, he just doesn't know it yet. ]
[Edward raises his eyebrows back at her, dragging his gaze slowly back up to hers.]
No, can't say that you can, Mary. [Christ, is she still unlacing herself, though? He looks away, as though he's uncomfortable. As though he's trying to give herself some privacy.
Honestly, Edward doesn't know what he's doing.] You couldn't wait until I left?
