Bones saw the way Haunter's expression almost turned into a smile. Leaning close to him, she whispered, sotto voce, "You can smile, y'know. I won't tell anybody," and then withdrew as if she hadn't said anything of it. Her pale eyes even shifted around as if to pluck out any eavesdroppers but, of course, she found none.
A moment later and much louder, Bones answered, "It's a creature of the sea with a sharp beak and eight wriggly legs! Sometimes they wash up in the bay—Keelhaul Bay in Tortuga—and you stomp 'em. This black stuff squirts out of 'em and you drink it up 'cause it's liquid luck!" Or so said tradition back home, particularly among the Blackflag Crew, for which all black-colored things were favored over others.
