Well, we get dragged back on board when the week is over. But yeah, and most ports are easygoing. You can shop, meet people. You'll need a warden to first let you off and then give you money. [It goes without saying that if Nadja won't Lark will, so he doesn't say it.]
Well, it might show you how eager she is to please you. But I wouldn't want her to feel she owed me any favors if I was in your place, so if she tries to make you wait it out and ask her, why don't you just go off ship with Pagan and me?

[It's a handy excuse, too: if Nadja is annoyed that someone took her temp, they can simply say that Anita wanted to go out in the day.]

[She takes a step, intending to leave.]
I'll head out then.
[Time to get away from the nosy wolf.]

[It's a friendly farewell as well as a bit of a promise: you can't get away forever, Miss Cagey.]
