I know that he is potentially our ally but I'm not going to metagame over here, hence the distrust and caution by a usually very careful character. :). even though just straight up trusting him and unlocking him immediately without any fanfare would be the optimal RPG gamer choice, it just isn't what a "Graves" would do.

Also, welp, looks like he has seasickness now. I wasn't expecting that, his initial giddiness was due to being injured but I guess playing along works just as well. Gonna add that to my character, I'mma do it later.

apologies for the seasickness, that was my own mis read.  Also I can't imagine anyone would straight up trust the pirate in this instance.
