I don't much care what they think as long as they can get this band off.
[It's not like joining the Corsairs was ever on his agenda in the first place. If they don't want him around, he's happy to leave. Regardless, this is... probably a conversation they need to have.]
...I don't know whether they'll make a big deal or not. I tried to leave as little evidence as I could. As far as I know, they thought I liked working for them, so it depends on whether they even think me capable of escaping.
[He shrugs one shoulder, perhaps a little too nonchalant. His tone is certainly bitter enough.]
If you had a precious pet bird that got out while you weren't looking, how long would you try to go after it? Even if they do realize I escaped on purpose, they might decide it's not worth it and just replace me.
[It's the preferable scenario, and Jamil is trying to convince himself it's the most realistic one. (Even if there is some injury to his ego to think of them just writing him off...)]
