Treasure (Jim Hawkins x Reader)

"Yeah, I'll never forget that. But hey, gives me character!" Y/n smiles. "Sorry about that." Jim says sympathetically. "Eh don't worry too much about it. The hard part is over, and at least I'm still living. Can't ask more than that." Jim couldn't argue with that. He leaned on the mop and sighed exhaustingly. "Today sure has been something. Making new friends. Like that spider psycho." Morph turned into a smaller version of Scroop. "Spider psycho! Spider psycho!" Jim and Y/n chuckled. "Little uglier." Jim said. Morph laughed maniacally with a cartoonish face. "Heh, pretty close." Y/n smiles.

Before the two could continue conversing, Silver approached them. "Why, would you look at that. The deck is still in one piece!" He smirks before looking over at Y/n. "Arrow sent me for you lass. Says he needs you to check on the engines. See if they are in need of any repair." Y/n nods. "Aye sir." Y/n says before walking off. "See you around Jim." Jim waves her off. "So, she's like a mechanic?"

"She does have skill with that kind of thing, yes. But aside from that, it's time I start pounding a few skills of your own, into that thick skull of yours!" Silver tells him. "From now on, you won't eat, sleep, or so much as scratch your bum without my say so!" Jim's eyebrow twitched. "Don't do me any favors!" Silver chuckles. "Oh you can be sure of that, now it's time you get to work."

Jim has been worked to the bone by Silver, it was tough but he learned things he wouldn't have known without Silver's help. He even found himself getting on Silver's good side, becoming pretty close friends. "I noticed you are in a pretty good mood." Y/n walks up to Jim, wiping her hands from oil. She had just finished working with the ship. "Something good happen?" She asks. "Well, aside from being worked to death, it's going pretty good." Jim says to her. "Well that's nice. Glad you two are finally getting along. I told you Silver isn't such a bad guy." She smiles. "I guess your right. Say, where do you go off all the time when you work? I never see you on deck." Jim asks.

"Oh I work down below where the engines are. To make sure nothing goes wrong and everything is in working order." Y/n explains. "I was hired by that doctor guy for it. Which, surprised me at first. I mostly worked on little trinkets and gadgets. I hadn't really worked on something regarding engines until I built a solar surfer. And even then, it wasn't the best." Jim hums. "Well, he must have saw some potential in you. Doppler always had an eye for stuff like that." He chuckles, Y/n couldn't help but smile at that. Someone saw potential in her? She rubbed her arm awkwardly. "Aw, that's really nice of him." She felt a light blush paint her face. "Heh, well we haven't had any problems with the ship so far. So you're doing a good job." Just as Jim said that, there was a huge explosion from afar. The ship moved, tilted to the side causing some of the crew to loose their balance.

"What the hell!?" Y/n gasps as she finds her ground. "Good heavens!" Doppler grabs a telescope and looks through it. "It's the star Pelsua! It's fine supernova!"
