Dylan: This is the best part of the night. (Offers her a big wooden cup) Want some rum?
Ruby: I don't know how to say no to that.
Dylan: Do not do it. Don't say no. Accept what I am offering you.
Ruby gestured to Dylan and he immediately understood that what his friend wanted was that cup of rum.
Dylan: Cheers.
Ruby: Thanks. Thank you very much.
Dylan: Thanks for what?
Ruby: If it weren't for you, I would still be alone, without anyone's company, without spirit and thinking about what I had and what I will never have again.
Dylan: Cheers for that then. (Takes a sip of rum)
Ruby: Cheers.
Ruby was about to take a sip of the liquid in her cup, when they heard loud footsteps of boots with metal buckles, and chains clanking together.
Dylan: Hades... What are you doing here?
Hades: I didn't come to talk to you. I came to talk with her. (Points Ruby)
Dylan: Can it be in another moment?
Hades: It has to be now.
Ruby took a sip of rum and then pressed it heavily on the table to respond to the God of the Underworld.
Hades: Ruby, can you come?
Ruby: Right now I can't. I'm spending some time with Dylan.
Hades: (Approaches to Ruby) Ruby, please.
Ruby: (Stands in front of Hades) Hades, I really don't feel like doing anything else right now.
Hades: Ruby, It's important.
Ruby: Listen. Tomorrow I can be with you as long as you want. If you want all day. But right now I'm with Dylan.
Dylan: (Approaches) Ruby, if it's as important as Hades says, you should go.
Ruby: Dylan, it's not necessary.
Hades: It is necessary. (To Ruby) It's something important that I have to show you and you're really going to be interested in.
Ruby: (Sighs) I'm going just if you let Dylan go with us.
Dylan: Ruby, it's not necessary. I have no problem in waiting.
Hades: (To Ruby) Do you really want him to go with us to...
Hades, worried that Dylan wouldn't notice, gestured to Ruby by pointing to his forearm, but she didn't understand.
Hades: Do you really want him to go?
Ruby: (Nods)
Dylan: Then I'll go. (To Hades) If it's something that important to Ruby, you're going to have to accept whatever she wants.
Dylan started to walk out the door, and when Hades saw that the pirate had already turned his back on them, he moved Ruby's glove, revealing her tattoo.
Hades, after revealing Ruby's mark, immediately continued walking behind Dylan.
Ruby was initially upset by what Hades had done and quickly covered her tattoos again, but then she understood what the God of the Underworld was trying to tell her.
Understanding the message, Ruby ran to Hades' side and started chatting with him as they walked behind Dylan.
Ruby: Hades! Why didn't you just tell me?
Hades: Because I thought you haven't told Dylan.
Ruby: I haven't.
Hades: You're clear that if you don't tell him now that you don't want him to go with us, he'll find out, right?
Ruby: We both know that sooner or later he's going to find out.
Hades: Did he tell you how he died?
Ruby: He told me. But he didn't tell me who this woman was, whom he loved so much and whom he had unintentionally murdered.
Hades: Do you think he knows?
Ruby: (Shakes her head) There's no clue about that. I think he's just trying to forget what happened.
