Apped to high_seas

[tactilelearner]

Yeah, yeah, pirate game. Should be so much fun.

Still not sure if I'm disappointed or relieved none of the others seem t' be around. There's a Logan and a Jean, yeah, but... not like they're the ones I know. Which is gonna be weird, an' I know you're gonna love every minute of it.

Guess it can' be much worse than Apocalypse, though, huh? So. I'll manage okay.

I think.

Well if you're worried about managing in high_seas, I can tell you I have all manner of goods to offer you should you find yourself there. Healing potions, weapons, clothes to fit your potential piratey lifestyle, magical knickknacks, or just about anything if you give me the time to acquire it.

[tactilelearner]

I'll need gloves. Few pairs.

[i_love_money]

You're in luck, I carry quite a bit of variety in gloves since I use them myself. Fingerless gloves, cloth cloves, leather, all manner of colors, and even gauntlets if you're inclined to fight with your fists.

[tactilelearner]

Just as long as they ain't fingerless. Not touchin' those.

[i_love_money]

Huh... do you perhaps have some form of... skin condition? I'll admit, gloves are not normally what I hear requested right off the bat, and I'm curious if perhaps I might be able to help in more than just completely covering up your hands.

[tactilelearner]

Somethin' like that, yeah. I'm pretty good at keepin' covered, but from what I know of this place, sounds like I'm gonna go through gloves pretty quick.

[i_love_money]

Hmm... well I wish I could offer you a more permanent solution, but I suppose I don't mind being your frequent supplier of gloves. Why do you think you'll use up more gloves here than you would elsewhere? Water damage?

[tactilelearner]

Manual labor, exposure t' the elements. Won' be at school or inside most of th' time.

[i_love_money]

Well then, it's lucky for you that you're buying your gloves from me. I often am selling to mercenaries or soldiers in a warzone, so my products have to be built to be durable and lasting.

[Durable and lasting? Anna, it's fire emblem, your weapons break all the time.]

I have several hand stitched gloves of varying sizes, designed for heavy duty work, and yet still flexible enough for the nimble subtleties required for a master locksmith such as myself. Plus, if you choose me as your supplier, I'll even throw in a warranty policy on your first three pairs.

[Anna is trying to slowly win over Miss Margie's loyal customer base.]

[bolincredible]

Oh, you'll probably manage fine! You know, piracy's really not so bad once you get used to the sailing.

[tactilelearner]

Sailin's what I'm not lookin' forward to.

Tired of me yet?

[thefuzzyguy]

Yeah, piracy! That sounds awesome.

Never!

[tactilelearner]

I'm just so excited 'bout it.

[Pure sarcasm.]

Open air, ships, water, lots of sunlight. Sounds great.

[thefuzzyguy]

Um, steal a parasol from somebody? Nein, seriously, sounds way more fun than where I am.

[tactilelearner]

As long as the loser brigade doesn' show up, I figure I'll be fine.

[thefuzzyguy]

Ahem. Ja. Toad has the room next door to me over here.

[tactilelearner]

...You poor thing. You've got my sympathies, really.

[thefuzzyguy]

It's been... a pretty long time. You get used to anything. He und Quicksilver aren't all bad, und there's also this girl Molly, who's also a mutant but from a different version or whatever. She's cool. I mean, eleven years old cool.

[tactilelearner]

Hope you're gettin' along okay, at least.

[thefuzzyguy]

Uh, well, sometimes. This place is pretty messed up, but when there's not too much going on, we're okay. Plus Pietro's way pickier than me, so usually he keeps Todd from leaving the place too messy.

[tactilelearner]

This place is gonna be a headache. I can tell already. 'Cause Jean is old. Like. Storm old.

[thefuzzyguy]

Yuck, yeah, hate it when that happens. We had Magneto but young. And even worse, he kept wanting to, like, be friends.

[tactilelearner]

...Now that? Sounds weird. And like somethin' my mun wants. She keeps talkin' 'bout wantin' a young Mystique around. Thinks we'd "get along."

[thefuzzyguy]

Ew... That hasn't happened yet, at least. Though apparently it would make for great drama. I know it's hard to tell when I'm rolling my eyes, but I'm definitely rolling my eyes.

[tactilelearner]

They don' think. I'm pretty sure that's what it is.

[thefuzzyguy]

More like they're happy when we're miserable. It's like a mean teacher gone wrong.

[tactilelearner]

They really are. Kinda hate 'em, but at least this one's fairly harmless. So far.

[thefuzzyguy]

Lucky you. I just lived through whatever an alternate universe is supposed to be. Whatever it is, it means I'm stuck with the memories of a version of me raised by Mystique. ...That guy is a jerk.

[tactilelearner]

...I don't even want t' imagine that.

[thefuzzyguy]

Don't. It'll be better.

[tactilelearner]

Know there are worlds where I ran with Mystique a lot longer.

Gotta say, though -- those versions of us? Hell of a scary team, prob'ly.

[thefuzzyguy]

I wish. I didn't know you any earlier than that world. She kept those projects apart.
