While I understand holidays are always a very exciting occasion, perhaps whoever's making all that ruckus down on the lower decks could cease and desist. It's rather ruining the mood

Well that depends on which side of our guns you happen to be standing on. T'is a reputation for reliability unless you happen to be on our Captain's bad side.

[ Pause, and there's a certain anger in his voice. To most, it sounds like a flame, sparking off against Gin, terrible and destructive and honest.
But perhaps if you are a little more discerning; if your tongue is forked and every word a hiss, you will realize that the anger is not a fire but simply fireworks, all pretense and facades.
If you are a little more discerning. ]
Pardon my rudeness, sir, but thou art lying claims upon our good Captain that I in all mine good conscience cannot abide by. I say that Captain Rowe be kind, for he hast offered me room and board upon this ship when I have naught to offer but mine paltry demerits.
To speak ill of him is an insult, for to him I owe a debt of gratitude and faith! if thou hast no base for thy accusations, thy is naught an earth-vexing wagtail.

[True, Gin doesn't know Lior quite well enough yet to distinguish fully between hard truths and bold lies but...he has an inkling. And it intrigues him very much indeed, although he'll make a show of playing along.]
Ahh, did I speak ill of him? I fear you've read far too much in my most innocent of comments. Of course I wouldn't dare to think of defacing the name of our dear Captain, especially to someone who owes him such a debt.

[ There's something about this man that raises his hackles- or perhaps one might say that it causes him to pause in his cawl across the floor, his forked tongue darting out to taste the air now that the dangerous taste has made itself know. Iago's voice is a little more careful now. ]
Ah, then pray forgive my presumptions. [ A pause, then, stiffly. ]
If thy wilt forgive me, good sir, this one will like not to.

[ Pause. ]
I am but a coarse soldier, good sir: is such reputation truly disdained?

You don't know him very well yet, I see.
[ And there's laughter in Gin's. Poor Lior. ]

You're new, after all, so I wouldn't expect you to know...Oh well. I'm sure with more time you'll see.
[Which sounds either ominous or like an offer of some description, one full of indistinct promises and maybe a little threat.]
