In quite the rush, several things seemed to happen at once. The enigmatic woman could only stare as the men where knocked aside by a foreign male and then quickly dispatched. She stood there, blinking once then found herself chuckling quietly. Quite a turn of events, and yet she still had to slowly lower her hand from the black handle of her sword on her back. Letting her shoulders lower as she relaxed, her hazel eyes flicked to the alley where her current companion came back into sight. Of course, as the new male came up and introduced himself, Phoenix was disappointingly oblivious to the otherwise obvious implication.
As soon as she opened her mouth to respond, Jean intervened, stepping in front of her as she looked up and yet directly at both as an equal despite her gender or height. Instead, she chuckled again, setting a hand on both boys joined ones briefly before taking a step back.
"Phoenix... no current occupation, least not permanent..." She glanced to Jean again. While she may not have been aware, the very expression twisted into something somewhat in the demand of 'play nice' before she turned her attention to the boat, letting the two do whatever for a moment. Though not for long.
"You don't have to stay long, Wan, just doing some... temporary volunteer work... I myself don't care if you stay or go..." She really didn't, to be bluntly said. and the reaction Jean had turned for was non existent as her attention had easily been diverted to the ship she'd been eyeing before. The extra help might be nice, but the fact being if they needed more work that inquired not being caught? Well, that could be worked around. Extra help or not she felt better about not doing it alone.
Looking back to the two boys, she wasn't about to explain everything to a newly met stranger just yet. Whatever was to happen now was up to them both, that or she'd begin her trek to the ship momentarily.
Anything could happen.
