My reaction towards Charlotte's behavior supports the way shes acting becuase she is tranforming intoi a new person. She takes risks and joins the crew to prove to Captain Jaggery that she can withstand anything he throws at her. Thats one of her wise actions or desictions, another is when she cut her hair. Cutting her air let the crew know that she will do anything to get her job done and that she won't let them down over a girls most valuanle posetion. Her not so smart action was when she disides to rage at the captain. That shows that he can manipulate her and get the best of her when she is trying to prove herself as a crew member.
EVALUATE AND CONNECT:
Charlotte tires to get along with Jaggery becuase she has heard bad things about him and since she is the only lady on board she doesnt want to be on his bad side becuase he's the only one she can speak to since the others she looks down on. Also becuase she thinks so higly of him and in a society wise prospective that she feels the need to have to be able to rely on him or go to him whenever she is in eed of something or simply just to have tea. It states on page 52 "Captain Jaggery was a brilliant sun andI, a Junomoon, basked in reflected glory." This shows that she knows he is higher than her in society and that's a reason she feels to be on the Captains good side.
I think that her dsition to join the crew was wise becuase now the she didnt have the captain at her side she couldn't really rely on anyone else. So she joined te crew to feel like she's still a part of the ship and also to show Jagery that she can live on the ship without him. On page 136 Mr. Doyle says " You'llbe seen by everyoneas the cruel despot you are!" Showing that she has no fear of standing up to him and letting him know a pice of her mind. Also she stays with the crew becuase she thinks of them as family and she feels she belongs on the ship so she decides to be apart of the SeaHawk once again (pg. 221).
