[Stein looks absolutely exhausted, so Shiro's not going to push the issue. He could use some sleep on an actual bed too, even if that bed is a mattress on the ground, but he can wait until Stein has had some rest.
In the meantime, Shiro carefully explores his new surroundings. The boat is dank and dark in this area, and it's more than a little creepy. And since it's daytime, he can't go above ship either. Even if he used some of the sunscreen first, he's sure the crew would ask too many questions.
So instead, he walks among the loads of cargo, trying to read their contents. His reading skills aren't the best- the clones never had a reason to learn anything beyond the basics- but Shiro's got a brilliant mind and is picking up stuff quickly.
It's mostly cars, Shiro finds out quickly, along with some manufactured goods and a couple containers full of dvds and games. So nothing he could use at the moment, he notes with disdain. He hopes the boat ride won't be too long, it's going to get boring fast.
Then the boat lurches and starts to sway in the way a boat would out on the open ocean, and Shiro quickly finds his stomach not agreeing with him. By the time Stein wakes up, Shiro is sitting nearby looking paler than usual, with a bucket in arm's reach.]
