[ It has been a rough and demanding couple of days, but somehow, against all odds, they've managed. They're not out of the woods yet, but it's looking more and more like the worst is behind them, and for all the chaos they've had to deal with for the last few days, now things are quiet at last.

The ship is mostly in one piece, just a few sails that need mending, a few ropes that need tightening, and Jim feels like he might finally be able to lie down on an actual bed (or hammock, whatever) for the first time in four days. He's been resting on and off near the helm or on deck, or with Bones when they both need the company, but this might be the first time he's actually using the Captain's quarters for longer than the ten minutes it takes him to wash himself and change clothes on occasion.

Still, he's not expecting anyone else to be there. Granted, he hasn't outright asked the others where they're bunking, but he figures Captain's quarters is pretty self-explanatory. So whether she's at an angle that he can't see her right away, or she's behind a divider of some sort, point is he doesn't realize that she's in there already, and as soon as he closes the door he's already taking off his wet shirt, draping it over a chair as he begins toeing off his boots next. ]
