[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!]

"So, ye have been dead before?"

Aye, mate. Was eaten t' death by a Kraken.

[And since he obviously does think you will understand what a Kraken is, he explains.]

A Kraken, mate, is a giant killer octopus. It's three times bigger than me ship, with ...tentacles that can wrap around me ship twice. It attacked me ship and brought me t' the depths of Davy Jones' Locker.

"Or perhaps ye still are..."

Nah, mate. I broke out o' the Locker 'bout a year ago.

"How can ye be sure this ain't the Locker?"

[He looks around the ship for a moment.]

..The Locker was a giant beach, mate. With me ship. And... [He makes a face.] ...rock-crabs. I ain't seen me ship nor the rock-crabs. So, I can't be in the Locker!

[He grins.]

[ The Kraken. Loki might've read about it once...but his memory's a little hazy so he appreciates the.......explanation. ]

My, that seems like quite the massive creature.

[ Assuming Jack's ship wasn't some little dinghy???? LMAO. He's giving him the benefit of the doubt though.

A n y w a y. ]

That does not sound very much like a locker at all. But assuming you've just arrived, you cannot have had the chance to explore the entirety of this place yet, can you? You may very well come across your ship, or [ ..... ] rock crabs. Then again, perhaps this is a place beyond the "locker." Perhaps this is a fate far, far worse.

"My, that seems like, quite the massive creature."

It swallowed me in one bite, mate. If that ain't massive, I'm the King of England.

[Which he could totally pretend to be, by the way. Also, his ship is not a dinghy. He is very proud of his ship. You would get lectures over it if you said it was a dinghy.]

"That don't sound very much like a locker at all."

[Have an odd look.]

What else would a locker look like, mate?

"...But assumin' you've just arrived, ye can not have had..."

[Another strange look. Have had? Grammar? What's that?]

"...Th' chance t' explore the en--"

[And all at once, Jack's patience just dies.]

Say, mate. D'ya not know how t' turn on your video?

[It's all Jack knows how to do.]

[ Ha. Hahaha. Somehow he had a feeling it was only a matter of time before this guy failed to keep up with his messages. ]

Sorry, [ not really ] is reading too much for you?

[ARG, MORE TEXT. He gives a sneer before continuing to read out-loud.]

"Sorry."

[He snorts. He has absolutely no inclination that you are sorry since you are still using text.]

"Is readin' too much fer--"

[Have an even deeper sneer.]

Dun really see the point in readin' when you can talk.

[ Yeah....yeah. He's not sorry. Here, have some more text in not-apology. ]

Very well.

[ But ok, he's switching over to audio now. He loves to talk, tbh, it's one of his favorite things but he's been texting because it's safer. More anonymous. But after talking to this one for a little bit, he doesn't think he has anything to fear. ]

Is this better?

[ His voice is smooth, soothing almost except for that slight lilt of amusement. It's a voice suited to suggesting, persuading and beguiling, the kind of voice you hear in your ear telling you all the wrong things to do but making them sound very right. ]

[Jack loves that little voice in his head that tells him to do bad things.]

Aye, mate. Much.

[ Well then they should get along just fine. ]

Might I ask your name?

[Jack grins.]

You're talkin' to the one and only Captain Jack Sparrow.

Captain? [ He sounds pleasantly surprised and not at all condescending. As if he really means it when he says, ] Impressive.

Have you any familiarity with this kind of ship, Captain?

Nah, mate. Me kind of ship is in the water, not in space.

Well. [ Disguising a laugh behind a reassuring tone. ] I'm sure you have skills that could still be of use on a ship such as this one.

[He refuses to believe this ship is a ship. =|]

'Course I do!

[ He'll have to face the facts eventually. ]

We should all feel lucky to have you aboard, then.

As you should, mate. It's not every day you get to sail with Captain Jack Sparrow!

Certainly not.

[ There's a smile in his voice. Amused. ]

Well, I suspect this won't be the last time we speak.

[ Since they're kind of stuck here together... ]
