After the unfortunate and highly accidental breakage of the medical thingy, Jack decided that the best thing to do would be to dump everything from his bag of booty onto the bar at Good Spirits so that McCoy--when he walked in angry--might be distracted by Interesting Junk. He tried to make two piles: Things of Interest to Bones, and Things of No Interest to Bones Whatsoever. There were sharp-looking scalpels and dull-looking scalpels and things that looked like they might be used to prod people's ears and other things that looked like they could be used to sew things like ears back onto the human body.

Into the other pile went some clockworkish items that Jack felt sure would be of interest to Donatello. He'd decided, somehow, that this turtle who was so intent on breaking through the barrier would need any help he could get, and if the pirate could do that by supplying random Malnosso technology, then he was more than willing to play that part.

The last thing he laid upon the bar--a set of iron manacles he'd swiped from one of the prison cells in the abandoned mountain structure--really could not be classified. He couldn't see Bones wanting them, and Donatello would definitely not want them and would in fact probably go off in a huff or something after even seeing them. So Jack ordered another tankard of ale and toyed with the metal handcuffs, wondering idly if he might reshape the iron and use it for fittings on his boat once she was finished.

The crystal was pretty, she would have to admit, but such things paled in comparison to anything that Jack may have pocketed. This smithy was like her room, and if you stole from it you stole from her.

"Plenty if you're resorting to parlor tricks. I'll have you know if I find out you left this smithy with something that belongs here, I'll make it so your thieving hands won't be able to steal again."

McCoy laughed at the latest predicament Jack had got himself in with his pillaging ways: "Help? I'll believe that when I see it." He wasn't being particularly helpful, but did feel good teaming up with another feisty blonde to make him squirm on the spot.

"Oh give it a rest! It's more than a little obvious by now, don't you think? That cuff isn't coming off until you hand my stuff over," Winry told him. Irritated she begins looking for tools that could help her persuade the guy trying to pull one over on her.

With a grin she spots a blow torch. She won't pick it up just yet, but it might come in handy.

McCoy sighed as Jack rambled on and crossed his arms over his chest. They were going to be here all day.

Picking up the blow torch and pointing it at the pirate, Winry responded, "Oh believe me. I'm not upset yet."

She glared at the man. Not only did he have the nerve to steal from her, which at the moment was more suspicion than anything, but he was lying too! Of course Winry would probably not go as far as burn the guy, but empty threats she could do.

"You want me to remove that cuff? Come here and I make sure it comes off along with that dirty hand of yours."

"Yeah, because I was just gagging to be chained to you, Sparrow." McCoy replied sarcastically, irritable with the man and eyeing the blow torch being wielded by Winry with a fair amount of worry on his face. Would she...? No, he was just being ridiculous.

"I'm going to have to amputate that hand if you take another step, you know." Would Jack end up shouting 'VOOOOI' if they really had to go down that road? "Infections are nasty and there's only so much I can do."

"I guess I could just leave that thing on him. Sooner or later it will rust, and from there he's bound to get cut and infected."

The mechanic set the blow torch down. If Jack wasn't going to hand over whatever he stole, well then she was just going to ignore his predicament.

It might be Stockholm syndrome

"Sparrow."

McCoy warned the other man sharply, his southern tendencies shining through as he watched that gesture and the accompanying smile on his face. The doctor eventually settled on glaring at the pirate and letting his expression twist in bad temper, as opposed to punching him in the smithy and incurring the wrath of more than one blonde girl.

Blondes were terrifying, after all.

Is that your final diagnosis?

"As if!" Winry hollered in disgust, "Do you really think I'm that stupid? Even if I did trust you, your stench would probably kill me once I got close."

A punch may have been more welcome than frowned upon, considering the mechanic was getting closer to handing Jack a right hook herself. Angry and stubborn, she refused to get closer to the guy.

McCoy sighed and slapped a hand against his forehead. God, it felt good to do that without a pirate or cold hard steel attached onto the other end.

"Or I can just let you leave with that bit of metal on your wrist. Whatever you've stolen is bound to make it back here one way or another."

She would hate to have to let him leave with what he has taken, but she was not a fighter. She wouldn't be able to do much about it. Winry was just a mechanic. Perhaps she would rat Jack out to one of her co-workers. The men working around the smithy would surely handle this easier, right?

"Either give it up, or get out," she demanded. Picking up the blow torch again, hoping it would threaten him, she toke a step forward. Winry didn't care if Sokka thought this guy was cool. Jack had written himself down on her list of people she did not like.

"I-" She cut herself off. He did, it was true, but it was something she'd rather not remember.

"Get out."
