They shake hands.

“Damn you,” Johanna muttered, before slapping her hand in his. His larger hand enveloped hers completely and he held it there for a long minute, smiling like a shark before letting go.

“Good,” he said, then, casting an eye over her shoulder and towards the sea, his expression darkened. “As our first joint venture, I think we should find some shelter, that hellish storm looks like it’s coming back to finish the job.” Johanna spun on her heels and cursed. The pirate was right, dark clouds were gathering over the sea, still in the distance, but definitely closing in. They probably had a few hours before the storm was upon them. And Johanna knew that, battered as she was, she couldn’t afford to be caught without some sort of shelter, and ideally some way to stay warm, as well.

“Help me move this up the beach,” Bone’s voice pulled her from her thoughts, and she turned to see him attempting to move the large piece of lumber he had previously been trapped under. Johanna was slightly irked that Bone was the one taking a leading role, but she moved to help him with the task anyway.

“This should start a decent lean-to,” She grunted as they slowly moved up the beach, “And we can probably gather some branches and large leaves to help keep out the rain,” The two captains let out a sigh of relief as they clunked the large piece of wood up between two trees at the edge of the jungle, “But this is a temporary solution at best.”

Bone shrugged, and Johanna found her eyes drawn to his powerful back muscles as they flexed with the motion. “You’re right, but we can worry about more permanent accommodations after we survive this first night.”

Johanna huffed her agreement and tore her eyes away from Bone as he turned back around, with a blush she hoped he didn’t notice. “I’ll get started on reinforcing our shelter, you go see if you can scavenge anything useful. Food, burnable wood, vines to use as lashing… anything, really.” Bone nodded, sparing a glance towards the approaching storm, “I’ll be back soon with anything I can plunder.” He gave a mischievous smile before disappearing into the jungle, and Johanna rolled her eyes again before gathering loose sticks, branches, and leaves and getting to work.
