You know, minus the pirates - this place isn't that different from home. It even has met the the 'fearing for your life' quota.

Except, you know, I don't have work to do like I did back there. Making this place seems almost like a weird space vacation straight out of just about every sci-fi I've seen.

Never thought that I'd actually miss some of the people from home.

Anyway - I guess I can be helpful in some manner of speaking. What do people with almost no skills actually do around here?

I'm tempted to just go get drinks again.

Drinks are good.

not a literal here, more like home 'here'

[in_the_blood]

oh. yes. well, that would explain it.

though we do sometimes get sailors from all over stopping by in chance harbour.

[corp]

we get people from all over, but it isn't that common, really to hear...that

i am not sure where i was going with this

[in_the_blood]

you were trying to distract me from the fact that you're totally an alcoholic?

[corp]

It's perfectly acceptable for a grown-up to have alcohol once in awhile.

[in_the_blood]

yeah so long as it isn't your daytime entertainment

[corp]

well, during the day - sure, but not daily

i'm a perfectly responsible adult

[in_the_blood]

prove it

[corp]

to you? you're like twelve.

[in_the_blood]

seventeen actually, but i can see how an alcohol-befuddled mind would make the mistake.

sarcasm, kiddo

[in_the_blood]

i got that it was sarcasm, i just chose to ignore it.

[corp]

a literal defense is the best to combat a sarcastic offense

[in_the_blood]

well then. now we've come full circle.

[corp]

think this is the first time i've gone full circle

[in_the_blood]

for real? not sure i believe you.

[corp]

oh yeah

totally

congrats
