Sorry for being inactive, here's a little thing of fluff take it as an apology.
"Uma! Uma!" Gil crows cheerfully, dodging some hooligans as he dove onto the Lost Revenge.
Uma turned around sharply, "What? What?" Her eyes narrowed as he hid something big in his jacket, hoping it wasn't something useless.
Gil paused, biting his lip before shining again. He pulled it out. "I found this at the docks, it's only two days after it's expiration date!" There was a small surge of pride, that he knew how to read from her, but she shook her head and focused on the object.
It was a quart—a whole quart—of strawberry banana yogurt. His eyes sparkled. "I was along the docks monitoring the goblins because they like to take all the good stuff and I found this and I was wondering if you wanted it because you've had a pretty bad week and this might cheer you up I think it might taste only a bit bitter but it's exactly like what they have over in Auradon and-"
"Gil," Uma cut off, "gather up the crew and get as many spoons and bowls you can from the Shoppe."
It didn't click, and Gil tilted his head for a few seconds, before his mouth opened it what she assumed shock and glee. "Oh, okay!" He pressed the yogurt into Uma's hands (good idea) and scampered off.
She sat there on the deck, placing it in a so called ice bucket they usually stored some kind of alcohol to keep.
It took about ten minutes but Gil returned with the spoons and bowls, Desiree hot on his heels. "Gonzo and Jonas are out lookin' for the others, need any help here?" Uma shook her head and Desiree nodded, turning to run back and gather the others. Gil blinked, staring at Uma blankly.
She gestured. "Gather the rest of the crew," she ordered, and he turned and went along too.
It took a long while (perhaps an hour, as she stared at a cracked wristwatch that was a gift from Jonas) but eventually she saw her crew trudging up the docks towards the ship. Desiree was talking, gesturing wildly about whatever and Gonzo and Jonas were laughing, Bonny giving a eye-roll. The twins were swinging hands with their brother, who obviously wasn't having the best day, and Harry looked genuinely confused as Gil pulled him along.
Sammy barely held his brothers back as they glimpsed the treat Uma held as they boarded the ship. Harry ruffled their hair fondly before looking around. "What's all this abou' Uma?" he asked. She held the yogurt for him to inspect.
It didn't take long for her to scoop out small rations to each member of the crew. Squeaky and Squirmy gobbled theirs down, starting to complain so that Harry and Sammy shared some of theirs.
Desiree nibbled at hers wisely, elbowing the boys to do the same. Bonny grinned proudly, sharing a half-empty can of whipping cream, and honestly it didn't matter if they shouldn't go together because it tasted so good.
Gil watched happily, hands clasped and beaming in his seat as everyone stared at the treat in wonder. Harry rested a hand on the bigger boy's back. "Good job, fishbait," he said fondly, and that only made Gil beam more, "I think you outdid me on the gift-bringin', I just got these." Harry thrust out a long strand of shimmering pearls, some a little cracked but most intact.
Uma sauntered over, staring at the jewels. She slapped Harry on the shoulder. "Keeping these all to yourself, Hook?" she challenged.
He fit them over her, twisting it around twice. "'Course not, darlin'!"
She pulled them off, staring. "Desi!" she barked, and the girl jumped. Uma smiled, finished her bowl and staring at the pearls.
"Help me make some bracelets out of these."
