Arwein smiles at Mick and reaches over and clasps his hand. She leans over to whisper in his ear so not to decline his offer of bunkmates in front of others.

"I am touched that you would offer me such a grand bunk mate, but I saddly must decline. I hope you take no offence ...for it is usually unwise for a single lady such as myself to bunk with a man. *Vlw* at least at the beginning of the trip. But i hope my choise will not scare you away. I'm quite fond of you Mick

Arwein listens to her room assignment and heads off to drop of her stuff. She stops and listens to Mugs and smiles

"um.. sure i would like that. How long do we have shore leave?
