Things are not going well for the employees of the EIC.
They're not going particularly badly - the nasty fish-people appear to be winning, keeping control of the Dutchman, but they're also running out of pirates to slaughter, and are turning on all the normal humans, regardless of allegience.
Mullroy and Murtogg are of an accord: better to risk it over on the Black Pearl and its legendarily evil Captain, than to stay here and definitely be killed by an ugly fish-man.
They grab the same rope, nod wordlessly to each other, and swing across to the other ship.
Mullroy decides it's all Murtogg's fault in miscalculating the swing so that they hit the side of the hull instead of landing on the deck.
