The maids were talkative tonight and Hook already knew about the young man looking for him. It had to be him after all, since no other pirate, much less one in this hole of a tavern, would know how to cross worlds, much less to Storybrooke. A name he was honestly surprised to hear in Wonderland of all places, but then the Hatter and Cora had spent time here, hadn't they?

Not that he would do anything about the inquiry until the man was bold enough to approach him. Approaching a pirate of his reputation to ask for something spoke a lot for a person.

Hook saw the young man finally approach, after leaving a finely dressed, handsome man by the door. He either had an overabundance of confidence or stupidity, bringing such a fine morsel into a place like this and leaving him to fend for himself. Hook looked over to one of his crew at a nearby table and nodded to the left behind young man. The crewman nodded back and with a laughing distraction, moved himself so he could watch over the morsel.

The other pirates drinking with Hook looked up but he kept his gaze just below. He lifted his hook and dropped it pointedly on the table before looking up lazily. "Depends on what we're drinking to, doesn't it mate?"
