Considering Tu Shanshu

[mopirates_moproblems]

Mundane,

No one finds this screen name amusing but you. Kindly revert me to my previous status, and then we'll discuss the business with the turtle.

Really, I thought we had an agreement that you'd save hauling me out for that ridiculous pirate holiday you insist on posting during.

[flawedgoods]

Ah, but since when have any of these mundanes ever listened to us?

[She sighs lightly.]

You're to join us on Tu Vishan then?

FAVRIELLE!

[mopirates_moproblems]

Not any time in recent memory, certainly.

[No sighing here. Just the best line face you've ever seen.]

It appears that way, yes. I hope you will not be offended if I say I am not exactly looking forward to it.

screaming forever ignore the snarky french kid

[philosophe]

Hmm. Well, I daresay Temeraire will be pleased at the opportunity to receive more of his countrymen.

I WON'T but the muse makes a habit of ignoring the French whenever possible

[mopirates_moproblems]

You'll forgive me for saying so, but the promise of decent company does not make the situation any more appealing.

[carriesparasol]

Amusing? Perhaps not. Though certainly accurate.

Certainly not grammatically stable, however.

[mopirates_moproblems]

One might go so far as to call it ridiculous.

[erebored]

You have a charming disposition for an admitted coward. Oh, but a sailor is it? I may steal you for my own crew, and take many more of Temeraire's countrymen until it pleases me.

[mopirates_moproblems]

[JESUS CHRIST IT'S A DRAGON GET IN THE CAR.]

I assure you I am no coward, sir.

[cravats]

The name is somewhat nonsensical, I admit, but the turtle is hardly intolerable.

[mopirates_moproblems]

From what I understand, you're enjoying it immensely.

omg Jaaaaames. ........... also please tell me his username's a Fallout reference

[roadtorule]

I dunno, my mundane finds it pretty funny. I don't get it, though.

It's a Notorious B.I.G. reference, sadly ;_;

[mopirates_moproblems]

I wouldn't trouble yourself overmuch.

[dominare]

A holiday for pirates.

[ will wonders never cease? the sarcasm is heavy in his tone, but hey, he really likes Norrington's hat!! ]

It's good to see the Crown is finally dealing with it's more considerable, pressing issues. God forbid if we forgot to thank the pirates.

[ let's ignore the fact daddy dearest was probably one ]

[mopirates_moproblems]

It's absurd, I assure you. A veritable celebration of drunkenness and skullduggery.

[Not that he knows anything about that HEY, YOUR HAT'S PRETTY NICE TOO.]

I do not believe His Majesty had much to do with it, if that is of any worth.

[Dads suck.]

omg Biggie Smalls...

[assassinates]

You would have better luck telling the grass to not grow, perhaps.

I feel so awful but it had to be done

[mopirates_moproblems]

Perhaps, but one cannot simply cease trying.

[dracobin]

Pray pay Smaug no mind; he is as fickle as he is uncouth, and likely he shall have forgotten the entire matter by morning. You do not have to be on his crew, if you do not like.

[Because you want to be on Temeraire's crew, yes? Yes, you do.]

You do not look like a pirate to me; why must you be hauled out, during that time?

[mopirates_moproblems]

I've ample experience dealing with 'fickle' and 'uncouth' in every imaginable combination.

[Excuse you he is an admiral. Dragons better fall in.]

I certainly am not a pirate, though my fate seems inextricably intertwined with them.

yes good come to us

[cynisme]

I find it amusing.

no stop it

[mopirates_moproblems]

Well, that is certainly a relief.

[depicted]

[Aww yeah fellow countryman!]

[Even if Dorian is apparently considered 'basically French' by the French characters. Whatever.]

If you're not a pirate, you really shouldn't limit yourself to keeping their calendars. Besides, there is plenty of good company on the turtle. It's a much better afterlife than most people could look forward to.

[mopirates_moproblems]

[ARE YOU THE ONE DEBAUCHING HIS PRESHUSH LYALL.]

I don't look forward to any sort of after life, amphibious or otherwise.

[inseine]

[... Really, another Englishman? Javert can almost say he knows more English now than he had confronted during the Napoleonic Wars.

Almost.]

A holiday, now! I had not known the English to celebrate their privateers and pirates that publicly.

[mopirates_moproblems]

[What's all this 'another' nonsense? Your school boys are climbing all over me, kindly remove them.]

It originated in the colonies.

[poeticverses]

My mundane finds the screen name hilarious. I, on the other hand, am confused by "pirate holiday".

I'M SORRY HE'S GETTING SASSY.

[mopirates_moproblems]

Really. The subject of this post is a populated turtle and the holiday is what people choose to focus on?

[littlecousin]

[Hello, James. Can I interest you in a relentlessly friendly Atlantean princess? Who is shamefully dressed by the standards of any time before 1960 and has pointed ears?]

I like your hat.

[It's got feathers and stuff!]

[mopirates_moproblems]

[If he reaches Tu Vishan, he'll be suitably shocked. As long as he's informed by Meta-Plot, however, this is his best friend.] Thank you.

[bindsthedead]

The turtle wouldn't happen to be- Ah, a very large one, with a city on its back?

[mopirates_moproblems]

Unless there's more than one, yes.

[getsbooty]

[Don't mind her, she's just eyeing that fancy hat of yours.]

Pulling you out for special occasions only? How very marital.

[mopirates_moproblems]

[THEY SAID THERE WEREN'T ANY PIRATES HERE.]

Yes, well, that is her decision. Not mine.

/ squeals

[shelteredswann]

James. ( a small smile spreads over her face, because she's more than a little relieved to have stumbled across someone she recognizes. ) I am afraid you might be wasting both you breath and your time... talking sense into them is about as effective as reasoning with a pirate.

Elizabeth -- [he starts, then trails off. Things between them, when they last saw each other...

(When he died.) ]

I've no doubt. Your simili is more than apt.

Are you well?
