( well, it did sort of seem obvious when you considered the fact people called him Hook. that'd be an awfully funny nickname to give someone for no particular reason. though perhaps one could also say it was a bit on the nose to give someone a moniker thanks to their prosthetic... it was a different time, political correctness was not a thing in the 1800s.
still, he'd introduced himself by his name and not his moniker for very good reason. she'd been befuddled by the idea of magic, safe to say she'd likely have thought him straight mad if he'd told her he was Captain Hook to boot. he knows that he's not supposed to be 'real' ... it's not something you throw at a person when they're worried about the safety of their friend.
or when they're running from zombies. there's no real reason to hide it now, though, and he couldn't really hide his missing hand even if he wanted to. )
Killian, aye. ( it is his name, after all, and he's starting to get more used to people using it. ) I don't know where they got that James business, but the name was the thing they got least wrong, if you can even imagine that. ( someone is slightly salty about his literary self, can you tell? )
