"'E ain't likely to leather you," Terry said. "Not wiv you bein' the gunner's boy, I mean. Won't stop 'im doin' it to me, though." Anyway, Fingers was younger than Terry, and smaller, and he couldn't see the purser hurting the other boy - even Mister Foxley couldn't be that mean.

The praise made him fairly beam. "Gotta have 'un, facin' a terrer like the pusser," Fingers reasoned as he pattered down the ladder.

It was all very well for Fingers, in Terry's considered opinion. He wasn't going to get leathered with the purser's tawse.

"Maybe. What you wanna bet 'e won't send us to the cook or someone?" Terry was feeling unusually gloomy right now. Bother it. If they hadn't gone up the mizzenmast and helped Mister Fletcher, they wouldn't be in this situation now.

"'Sides, it's me he'll whip, not you - he don't know you've bin skivin'. Mister Foxley, I mean. Likely 'e won't care, neither."

They were on the messdeck now, and it was only another ladder and a short walk before they arrived at the purser's store-room. Terry's steps were definitely dragging now.

True... But Mister Foxley hardly likely to care about that. "Yeah... but not alla the time," Terry pointed out. And they were here now, anyway. He took a breath.

Fingers made a face. "Close 'nuff." He swallowed, suddenly nervous, and glanced up at Button.

"Can't be so bad, really?"

"You don't know 'im," Terry muttered in reply. It probably wasn't that bad, really, but it did hurt... and he wasn't sure if Fingers knew about it, not really.

The purser squinted down his nose at the two boys. "What is this?"

"Mister Leat sen'us." Fingers peered warily at him.

Terry nodded silently, just as wary, and hopeful that things wouldn't be as bad usual because Fingers was there. Though it was doubtful that Mister Foxley would even care about that.

That didn't sound so bad, Fingers thought.

"You," the purser went on, rounding on Button. "Haven't I warned you about skivin' off?"

Or maybe it did. Fingers stared up at Mister Foxley with wide eyes.

Terry automatically put both hands behind his back - as if that was going to help! and shuffled his feet. He nodded wordlessly, staring at the deck. "Y... yes, Mister Foxley," he mumbled, hoping this wasn't going to be too bad.
