'would you stay up with me? keep me company?'

Thomas looked over at Izzy, it had been a rough day for the crew, and they were all feeling that weight in one form or another. Izzy had offered to take the first watch to allow the others to sleep, he wouldn't admit that he needed rest just as much as everyone else, Thomas knew him well enough. Sitting next to him on the crate, Thomas took his hand and squeezed it, "I'm not going anywhere."

Thomas Hamilton watched the drunken pirate who had somehow gotten himself tangled in some old fishing line struggling to escape. During his time in Nassau, Thomas learned quickly to survive, keep his head down, and don't piss off the pirates. While he did his best to steer clear of all of that, knowing what it had cost him and put him there, to begin with, one would have had to have their heads in the sand to not recognize Captain Blackbeard.

Holding his hands up, Thomas said, "I'm sure you're more than capable of taking care of yourself, but sometimes even the best of us need a helping hand from time to time." Gesturing to the line he said, "You've got yourself pretty tied up there, I can help the job go quicker if you want me to."

Thomas is a former British Aristocrat who was imprisoned due to his progressive stance on piracy. Escaping from London, Thomas found his way to the Caribbean. While not a pirate himself, he does his best to keep a low profile, working various jobs to keep a roof over his head and food in his belly. He can be often found in the Republic of Pirates if and when he's needed.
