Anyone know where I might find a fellow by the name of Norrington?
I'm due for a drink with the man.

[There is a pause. Her pen taps a few times before curiosity abounds, and then she just starts to write random terms. Someone, somewhere, must be curious enough to ask her, right. And after spending some time as Fergan, she sure needs ( Read more... )

Dear Miss,

I did not get your name, before. I see you're eager for our drink together and I cannot wait to see your loveliness in person. When would you like to join me?

Yours,

James Norrington

[Jack reaches up to toy with a dread, which is impossible because he has pulled them back neatly. So instead he brushes his fingers against his mouth.]

Criminals, them? Bad folk can occasionally be....good folk. At times. In a manner of speaking.

[He watches her lift the smoke to her lips. He has an oral fixation of his own, so it rather fascinates him.]

[She puts her finger tip to the end of the butt and then... oh. Wait, maybe she shouldn't use that talent. She grimaces a little and then lowers her finger/hand, leaving the unlit cigarette in her mouth, which she presses on a little more than is probably needed, wishing she had the foresight to bring a lighter]

Depends who you ask, doesn't it? Few "bad" folk are noble enough to be "good" folk to someone at the level of the law, but almost none of them are all "bad." [She sighs] Unless you're picking at my brain for me to go on about my childhood, James.

[Oh, hell. Jack has a book of matches stuffed in his pocket, thanks to all the stays at Good Spirits. Which, weirdly, seems to have a no smoking policy but whatever. He offers her a light.] I never mind a good story, me. My own childhood was a bit boring, so hearing of others' perks me up a sight.

Oh, thanks.

[That's not automatic, for the record, she had to think about it. there's a deep inhale to buy her time, mostly, and then...]

Well James, I'm not adverse to the tale, but if your childhood's that open, I wouldn't mind hearing the highlights so I could decide if I think it's dull or not.

[Bugger. How boring could Norry's childhood have been?]

Oh, the usual; born into a wealthy home where I lived quite comfortably until my father purchased my commission.

Commission? Where to?

My first duties were as lieutenant aboard the Dauntless; it didn't take me long to rise in the ranks. We saw to the escort and protection of trading vessels across the Atlantic, darling.
