Having Gibbs on board has been good for Elizabeth. She trusts him as much as she can trust any pirate; seeing his familiar face as they set sail, and as she proudly showed him the Empress, very nearly made her cheerful

There's a smile on Toki's face, he'd noticed a peculiar overabundance of people singing and dancing today and most of last night. Not that he knew he had anything to do with it.
He did, however, notice the lady as he walked past with his guitar in hand, on his way over to the Observation Window. And may have tried to sneak a slice of fruit in the process.
Hey, if it wasn't being guarded very well, it was up for grabs!
Toki laughed, not at all feeling awkward over the unwavering attention of the lady. "It is! But he's just de bassists for de band I'm in, no big deals. He coulds be a pirate if he tries, though. Gots dat kinds of attitude."
Of course only after Elizabeth said the word 'pirate', did he notice that she was wearing rather piratical garb. "You knows pirates?"
"Band?" Elizabeth asks, thinking of bandits and highway robbers and things like that, at least until she looks at what she thinks is a musical instrument. "Ah."
"Ja, with instruments." He held up his guitar, "I's de rhythm guitarist."
Since the conversation suddenly got very interesting, Toki took a seat nearby, setting his guitar down to lean on his leg. "Really? I only evers meets one other lady-pirate, and she's a vampire, too. She's pretty cool, though." He paused, then tilted his head, "Comes to thinks of it, dere's is a lots of pirates here. Not any vikings, though."
He shrugged one shoulder, before offering his hand to shake. "Toki Wartooth."
"A vampire." Elizabeth blinks. Sometimes, when she hasn't been here in a while, she forgets how strange it can be. "What's her name? I might recognize it. There aren't many female pirates."
And even fewer vampire pirates? She takes a much-needed drink, then shakes his hand.
"Her names is Darcy Flotsom, she stands abouts dis high on me," He said, indicating mid-chest. She was rather small, in fact.
"And is good to meets you... Turner? Waits, as in Will Turner?" He smiled wide, "I knows dat guy! New captains of de Flying Dutchman, jo? Real nice guy."
Toki beamed at the question, "Oh, I likes it, is in very goods condition, I woulds loves to plays it again. Too bad Will don't seems likes he wants to learns to play, would livens de place up a littles while he's betweens searchings."

"You know," Elizabeth drawls, "in some parts of the world I could have stabbed your hand for that."
But not here. She has no wish to end up in the cells.

After finishing it off, he smiled, "Dat's is what Murderface tries to does when I steals his foods. But I gots fast hands."
Beat.
"I could pays you back, though."

Elizabeth continues to watch the man closely.
"That would be an intriguing name for a pirate." A hand wave. "It's just a piece of papaya."
She really is in a good mood.

For the first time in the conversation, Elizabeth's face truly lights up. All thoughts of the female vampire pirate are forgotten.
"Yes, that's him. He was here again? When did you see him?" she demands to know.

The was a bright smile, "He seems to takes his job very seriously."

Her voice is flat as she says it.
"Yes, he's my husband. We don't see other much." That's an understatement. "How do you like the organ?"
Elizabeth thinks it is vaguely disturbing, but she's all too familiar with its previous owner.

Beat.
"Well, so to speaks, anyways."

She really has no idea how he occupies his time, and the thought makes her sigh.
"If you see him again, could you tell him I was here?"

Toki smiled warmly, "I promise dats he'll gets de message. Unless you tells him first."
Reply
She certainly hopes she tells him first.
