Hook got up with a slow start, feeling a little drowsy still from the other night. He was inside one of the primitive huts the savages had built, surrounded by furs and blankets. He sat up, vaguely remembering the night before.
He mentally kicked himself for not having his night with the Queen, but otherwise it had been a... more enjoyable night.
He wandered outside, curious if Celeste and Else were still there, what plans they had...

Else saw the captain stumble out of a hut a little ways in the distance. He looked gods awful, though he had a serene expression on his face. He had apparently gone BACK into the peace pipe hut after checking on her earlier in the day.
The queen had looked up at the sun. It didn't LOOK to be more then a few hours from when she had begun her catnap. The smoke had been potent, but fast acting... and she felt revived enough to continue on their quest.
"Shall we proceed?" Else asked Celeste. "You said something about a music box? Do you think it is possible to acquire it before the day is over?" She had hope that it would be as easy as the gauntlets had been.

the native girls were now done doing her hair so celeste nodded to else, they had been sitting around idly for too long as it is, she stood up.
“well seeing how long a day is here... i think so, but its hard to tell, i know where it is, but it maybe hard to get too” she told Else.
Celeste remembered seeing where it was on her map, it was right in the middle of neverland, where the fairies resided but that wasn't the problem she was actually worried about.
“lets grab Hooker and get moving shall we?” she said looking over to Hook who was coming over to them.

"Agreed." She glanced over at Hook. "Ready to move out, Captain Jones?"

"Oh?" He smiled," I didn't realize I was still a part of the treasure-hunting-trio"
He smirked, of course he'd go with them. If anything had gotten through his head through the time spent with The Clever Queen it was that lying around in Neverland would never heal him, nothing would. What he needed was to right the wrong the Crocodile had done by taking Milah from him. Revenge would be Hooks saving grace.
With that in mind, he didn't want it to look like it'd be so easy to recruit him on their endeavors like a lowly mercenary," Maybe I have better ways to spend my time"

“if you want to go back to your boat and ‘spend your time’ with your smelly crew of men like you have been doing the last 300 years, that's no sweat off my back, i'm sure you all have become VERY close over the many MANY years” she wiggled her brows at him and then shrugged.
she didn't have time for this, to try and get the pirate to come, when she really could have cared less, if he wanted to leave then she wasn't going to stop him, hell the way things were going she could just have done this all herself.
“do what you want” she turned and settled out of the camp.

Else watched the enchantress go, and then looked back at hook. "If you come with us, your treasure hunting experience as a pirate would no doubt be an advantage to our quest." Else said. "And the sooner we find what we're looking for, the sooner I and four other stowaways will be out of your hair for good, Captain Jones." Else reminded him.
She knew Celeste was playing Hook's game, for he was like an impertinent child at times and lashing back out at him seemed the natural thing to do, but Else tried a softer approach... a request. Only through the grace of lingering peace pipe herbs did the Queen have the calm temperament NOT to yell at him.
...and 300 years??? Did Else hear that wrong or has Hook been in Neverland for nearly 300 YEARS? Else could have gone on about that for a few solid minutes, but she bit her lip.

"Well that... But I fear the longer you remain in the enchantress' company the closer you come to completely loosing your sanity..." He said as he watched her walk away,"In all honesty, Love, I've had a change of heart... Or perhaps just a change in attitude of my circumstances"
He smiled and crossed his arms,"I've stayed in this world for far too long and it's time I face my demons, when we find the last of the remaining items I plan on returning to our world" He started in the direction Celeste had gone," So whether you want me or not I'll be traveling with you lasses to the next world"

Else walked along beside him... smiling... genuinely. Probably for the first time since she had reached this dreadful island. And certainly for the first time in regards towards her new pirate acquaintance. "Well... it remains to be seen if it is indeed a step int the RIGHT direction... but it is indeed a step towards SOMETHING, Captain Jones."
"Though our dear Celeste may have something else to say on the matter entirely..." That earned her a grin from the buccaneer. A flash of him, over her, kissing her, the taste of salt and rum shot through her mind, uncomfortably vivid. She blinked, shaking her head, touching a hand to her temple.
"Ugh... the herbs... powerful stuff..." She quickened her pace to put some distance between her and Hook.
Where the hell had THAT come from?

Celeste led the way up ahead, ignoring the two behind her, they could see the mounted far up ahead, she heard Else behind her, she had noticed that she had dark shadows under her eyes, she wasn't getting much sleep, Celeste thought it was most likely because of what she had seen thanks to what her evil self showed her... Celeste sighed, Celeste had always seen terrible things like that, she had become very... numb to it, she sometimes forgot that others weren't so... lucky, she took a purple liquid small bottle out of her bag and slowed down till Else was close.
“Else, take this before you try and sleep next, it will help you sleep, it may not taste very good but it will do the job” Celeste said handing the bottle over to her.

Else was shocked by the unexpected gift. "...Thank you, Celeste." The queen had tried all manner of drams after her child's death to find peaceful nights, but nothing had really worked. But perhaps something from an enchantress would have a little more kick to it! Having no where else to put it, she put the little vial in between her cleavage, tucked between her and the tightness of her corset.

“i know what its like to have sleepless nights, i have them every night unless i take one of those, i’m... sorry about what my evil twin showed you, i'm even sorry for what it showed hook” she told her sincerely.
she did feel bad, she hated to think that she could turn into such a thing if she wasn't careful, she had come close many times, she had hurt many people just how it had done, sometimes even worse, she she hated to think what others would think of her if they knew, even when she tried very hard not to care.

"What, no sleeping potion for me?" He pouted a little as he trailed behind them
"So where are we off to this time ladies? Hopefully we can avoid anymore mirrors tis time around..." he caught up to Else and shot her a smile, he wondered how much of the other night she remembered, and what she did remember he hoped would give him extra 'points' in winning her favor.

Else saw Hook shooting her a smile. She thought it was lingerings from the nice little moment they had a few seconds ago... but it was... leering.
"May I ask the occasion of such a mischievous grin, Captain Jones." She asked. "Apparently I missed the reason for it..."

"Hmm? Oh yes," He chuckled, clearly she was a bit fuzzy about the other night... " I've just.... never seen the side of you that was shown last night..."
