He stood to the side, out of the way of all the busyness of the day, as his eyes scanned over the Star's deck. When he'd woken that morning on the Jade Moon Petro had been told to report to its sister ship the Star for his new orders. It seemed he'd be moved again and while he'd of course do so without complaint, there wasn't much he could do about it anyway, he still felt a heaviness in his chest at yet another change in crew. While most seafarers were always looking for change and chasing the horizon, Petro was quite satisfied to stay in one place and yearned for his home on solid ground. His heart wasn't with the sea, it was back home at Isong with his daughter and he felt the more he changed and moved the further away from Lidiya he became. He heaved a sigh and shoved his hand into his shirt pocket, fingering the locket that his daughter had given him. Well, always make the best of a situation right? Before he could begin looking about the ship anymore he heard his name distinctly being called and he turned to see the captain ushering him over. Petro obediently walked into his quarters were another man waited as well.

The captain instantly went into an explanation of the new orders and Petro did his best to keep up with the quick speech. His eyes were focused as he listened intently until he heard the word Finch. Finch? Wasn't that a bird? He thought the captain said he was going to be working medically but was he going to be working on birds? Well, he did like birds but he didn't know much about how to take care of them. Oh wait, no Finch was this fellow's name! Oh that's it! Wait, what is the captain saying?

"I wanted to have the opportunity to welcome you aboard Petro and introduce the two of you. With the upcoming battle I suspect there will be work enough for both of you, but for now please take the opportunity to get to know how one another works and meet the rest of the crew and ship.”

Petro realized he'd been lost yet again so took up his usual smile and nod routine. "Ya, ya, thanks much Captain." He nodded to him and looked to Finch with a smile, clapping a heavy hand on his shoulder. "Good meet you! Yes!" That was right wasn't it? He was hoping to get to know the crew, especially this Finch man he was suppose to be working with now. Petro of course instantly wondered where the man received his many scars but that wasn't an appropriate question to ask but he was curious if Finch had a history fighting like he did. "Go out to see?" He asked slowly, unsure if he was forming the question of going back out on deck correctly. Giving a bow to the Captain, he turned and walked out of the quarters, hoping Finch would follow to show him about and introduce him to others.

From first glance he could see several women on deck which surprised him. It wasn't that he didn't think women weren't capable of being sailors but most women back home held domestic titles, then the pirate crew he served upon had no women members, the previous Moon crew had no women on board so his first contact with a female sailor had been the Captain of the new mandated Moon. He'd be lying if he said he didn't worry more for the woman on board, especially after seeing what many of the pirates would do to women they kidnapped. Petro waited on deck and observed the crew, smiling at any who made eye contact with him as they milled about, subconsciously he reached up and pulled his collar a bit higher in an attempt to hide the serpent tattoo on his neck.
