Sailing 001 | Video

[bottlearum]

[When the video starts, it's of a man with tan skin and long hair. Some of it is in dreadlocks, some of it is in braids. He's wearing a black leather tricorn hat above a red bandanna. He's got beads and trinkets in his hair, and he's dressed in full pirate garb. That jumpsuit was weird, why would he wear that when he's got his clothes?]

[He's also upside down. Jack, how did you get on the ceiling, that's not--Oh, wait, no. He's just holding the cell phone upside down. How do I technology?]

Right.

So, I'm t' believe that I'm on some sort of...

[He pauses for a moment, and the video flails around for a minute. Jack is gesturing with his hands and doesn't realize that some viewers may become motion sick. He finally finds the word he was looking for, and the video stops and you've got a lovely video of the wall. Isn't it beautiful?]

...ship. In the sky. Above the Earth. Floatin' in space.

...The Locker made a lot more sense the first time around. This is just... odd.



[Fourth walling is encouraged!]

Captain? [they really were racking up the captains weren't they?] What's your vessel?

[bottlearum]

[Best Captain ever, if you asked him.]

The Black Pearl. Fastest ship in the Caribbean. Non-catch-able.

[he grins.]

Pretty impressive.

'Course it is. She's the only ship t' outrun The Flying Dutchman.

[WHICH IS SUPER IMPRESSIVE, let me tell you.]

Sounds like quite the story.

[Obviously, you've never heard of Davy Jones before.]

The Flying Dutchman is the fastest ship in the world, mate. And me ship can beat it.

The Flying Dutchman? Like the ghost ship?

[what, he likes those stories ok.]

[bottlearum]

[alsdkjf YES. You're the only person so far that's HEARD of it.]

Aye, mate.

[his grin is slow and considerably fanboy-ish. he'd never considered these things to be real stories; so it either means they are or that this contributes to the idea that, in some form, they're all from supposed fictional universes.]

Wild.

[bottlearum]

[How about both? It's certainly real to him, but he has been told that he's a fictional character a few times. Either way, it's definitely time for Jack Sparrow to gloat.]

You heard of Davy Jones, mate?

Captain of the Flying Dutchman, of course.

video;

[bottlearum]

Aye, mate. He's a big guy, with tentacles all over him.

[He brings his hands up to his face, wiggling his fingers to better show the tentacles.]

Not a bad sword fighter, either. But he ain't no match for me.

[that's quite the demonstration. but Jim is getting the impression this man might be consistently drunk. then again, he is a pirate.]

Is that so? Maybe we should have a go sometime, show me what you've got.

[bottlearum]

[You would be correct, sir. If Jack isn't drunk, he's not happy.]

Ah! You know how t'sword fight, mate?

[goldshirt]

Just a bit. A friend of mine back home was giving me lessons.

[bottlearum]

[He smirks.]

Well then, mate. I guess we'll hafta see how good y'are at it.

[goldshirt]

Remind me about that when things cool down a bit.

[squee]

[bottlearum]

Aye, mate. Sounds like a plan.
