Trolling for Pirate Castmates -- Reserves open at Luceti. Linky fun!

[all7seas]

Dear Mundly,

Starfish doxies: should've worked more better. Bloody benders. Benders everywhere! Benders and their overly suspicious brothers. Even worse than having the Batman around sometimes, 'cept of course there ARE none worse than the Batman.

Bloody Batman.

(Though the air bending one is alright. Hmph.)

But I'm done with benders. We've enough starfish prostitute-hating "oh let's all be celibate why don't we?" benders. What we're wanting is more pirates. This mission? Would be much more better with more piratical sorts. Get me some. No more benders. PIRATES. Pirates.


---Jack.

Aye? Who would you figure I'd like to be less than Commodore James Norrington?

[She had called him admiral, but then, land-lubbers were forever mixing up sea-faring terms.]

[herotypical]

C-Commodore?

[ wait. wait, did she know about...? nope. james hadn't told her about any other rank. though there must have been others. jeez, as far as she knew? admiral simply came after captain. ]

Oh. Uhm. Err. Well? [ ...

wait. ] You're not Blackbeard, are you? Because I'd ask for a refund from your hairdresser, if I were you. That beard ain't black.

[belayhat]

If I were honored before, there's nary a word for my feelings on the question of my being mistaken for Edward Teach his-self.

[herotypical]

Right. That's wrong. Soooo...scratch that? Hmm, who else...

[ she crosses her arms over her chest. thoughtful. honestly she should have figured this out by now but this is pretty fun. ]

[belayhat]

Aye, I think ye'd best scratch that.

[all7seas]

NO ONE'S SCRATCHING ANYTHING!

2/2

[herotypical]

...You know what? I find my appetite for finding out who you are suddenly a little more diminished.

Maybe a lot more diminished.

[belayhat]

'twould be a fine thing to top Blackbeard, 'tis true.

Ah, Jack. You caught us in the middle of a charming little game, your swab and I.

[all7seas]

[Jack Sparrow: Charming Little Game Ruiner.] Indeed.

Buffy? Hector. Hector? Buffy. How's everyone's appetites now?

[herotypical]

O-oh. Hector. Like the cute little kitty-ca--

Wait. Swab? Did you just...did he just call be a swab?

[ what the hell is a swab. ]

[belayhat]

I've got a monkey named Jack.

[It seemed strangely relevant all of a sudden.]

[all7seas]

She's met the monkey, mate. Horrifying little scabrous circus freak that he is. [And SWAB? Oh for the -- DON'T MAKE HER ANGRY HECTOR.]

My first mate, Buffy. Remember? First mate? That first mate?

[herotypical]

...That ex-First Mate. [ and she's the first mate now so this is a little like meeting an ex-girlfriend. only...

hairier. ]

Huh.

[belayhat]

Now I wonder how much of what of himself he has entrusted to you falls into the shiny sixty four percent, miss, and how much be the province of the other thirty six.

[all7seas]

............What?

[herotypical]

I changed my mind. [ she watches barbossa. not jack. ] It's really more like twenty-two. Not thirty-six.

[belayhat]

[To Jack:]

Do excuse us, we're having for ourselves what you might call 'a moment.'

[all7seas]

Buggering NUMBERS and MOMENTS and PERCENTAGES and GAVIN.

[herotypical]

[ who is this gavin you speak of, hun? ]

Twenty! Let's call it an even twenty!

[belayhat]

So you know, Jack, I set our fair swab here to the task of guessing at how many first mates you've had to this day. Seems she landed on twenty after all.

[all7seas]

But I've only had one who tried to kill me, Barbossa. And that honor falls to you.

[herotypical]

Blah blah mutiny blah blah island marooning. Yes. I know the story. Obviously you both do, too.

So can we please get back to the part where I'm mostly sure that I should be very very upset with once again being called a swab? Isn't that a pigeon or something?

[belayhat]

A smart one, you are. So did he happen to tell ye about the part where he put a bullet in me heart? Or not? And did he tell you how he did this even as my heart took its first fleeting beats after years of cold, accursed silence?

Or not?

[all7seas]

Ha! Haha! That was a good one, aye.

[Still ignoring the swab question to relive that brilliant moment of revenge.]
