Just don't make him regret his good deed here, Chloe. Though-- the longer they're sitting here, the more it feels like Billy's body does relax a little bit. It truly is just a little bit, but maybe it's the very, very faint start of a desensitisation process here..

.. maybe.

Or it's just that he has her babbling to focus on now, which is sounding a lot more like the way she usually does - so straightforward and blunt. Nosy, too, in some ways, though at least this is something Billy doesn't mind speaking about as much.

"Generally speaking," Billy slowly answers. "But I got to have my own small cabin on the latest voyage."

If you could even call it a cabin. More like three walls very close together and a curtain to hide it from the world.. But Billy is still aware it's more privacy than most are allowed to have on board.

"It's since I was a steward. I served the officers, so I had to be close by at all times of the day and night in case they required anything from me."
