Quote #7
And then, with his face nearly hidden, he must have looked exactly as I used to look in that bed. (1.99)
The captain likes to think about how Leggatt looks when he's sleeping, which is kind of creepy. What's even creepier is the fact that he likes to think Leggatt looks exactly like him when he's asleep.
Quote #8
There was a sort of curiosity in his [the chief mate's] eyes that I did not like. (1.109)
The captain doesn't communicate a whole lot with his crew, which means he's developed a series of snap judgments he makes whenever he sees one of them walking toward him. In this case, he can tell in one second whether or not he wants to talk to his chief mate.
Quote #9
I watched him coming with a smile which, as he got into point-blank range, took effect and froze his very whiskers. (1.109)
The captain feels like a smile is the best way to stop his crewmembers dead in their tracks. He thinks that it conveys power, but his crew might take it as a sign of madness. In either case, the look tends to do the trick of making people go away.
