scourgeofpiracyHe's up early, as he always is, getting ready for another day's work on the Pearl. And he's trying not to think about how close the repairs are to complete, and what happens when it's all done.
He's about ten seconds from leaving when the knock comes at the door.

"And as for getting caught--" There's no humor at all in Jack's face or voice. "Not worried about that, luv. Pirate, savvy?"
"Now. Either you step to it or I'll see to it meself when I come back, but either way the lad's going with me to the Pearl and some sawbones is going to that room."

Wellard looks at him, surprised. "Norrington? What happened to him?" Another wince, even as the hall keeps spinning, but he manages to look back to Mary.

"Please?" He closes his eyes.

Meaningfully: "I know how to hit."
And with that, she whirls on her heel and runs for the stairs.

Muttering quietly, Jack supports Wellard to the stairs and down them, pausing in the shadows at the bottom.
As Mary gets the attention of a young woman, he seizes the moment of their distraction and leads Wellard around a small knot of people, looking for all the world as if one or the other of them is helping someone a bit too inebriated to walk on his own.
Seconds later, they're out the lake door and off to the Black Pearl.
