What the…? What on Earth is going on? Oh, goodness gracious where am I?

[There's the sound of frantic pacing, and then a small, rather unmanly shriek as Nathaniel looks through the porthole.]

A ship? A ship? I don't remember getting on a ship! And I certainly wasn't drunk last night, so this can't be some sort of awful mistake… Oh Lord! Have I been ( Read more... )

Please calm yourself. You are on the M.S. Elegante, bound for somewhere called the Golden Shore. There is no cause for alarm, sir.

No cause for alarm? My good man, I do believe there is every cause for alarm! I have been taken from my home against my will, and it appears I have no way of returning to my studies! It's terrible! What on Earth am I to do?

[Worried about his studies? It's an organic after Shockwave's Spark.]

Tell me, what is it that you were studying? There might be someone on-board who can continue teaching you, or books on the subject in the library.

I was an art student at the Cehlsea School of Art. If there were someone here who could help me continue, I would be eternally grateful to them. Though I suppose there is the matter of finding the supplies first.

It--it seems impossible, but y-you're safe and among friends.

There's some things you--you have to be careful of, but--b-but there's help if--if you want.

My name's Herz. If you're ever hungry, come to--t-to, uh, deck 10. Me and my friends run Sergei's Bar and Grille and we love to--to cook. Just ask and we'll--we'll make you something.

By deuce, that's quite a welcome offer, my good man, though I'm afraid I find myself low on funds at the present time. Do we have a great deal of freedom on this ship, then, or were you assinged the task by our kidnappers?

In any case, it's a pleasure to, ah... meet you, Herz. My name is Nathaniel Ireton. Are we truly safe here, when we've been kidnapped and are being taken God alone knows where for an unknown purpose?

Oh, the--t-the food is free. Everything is. We just--just cook cuz we like to.

The first mate Kage opened the restaurant for us cuz no one was using it. We wanted a kitchen to-t-to work in and he gave us one that was, y'know, vacant, I--I guess.

And, um, as--as for--for being safe...

Yeah. Yeah, it's pretty safe.

[That's what he'd want to hear--what Herz would want to hear--his first day on the boat.

It's a lie, though.

And Herz can't lie his way out of a wet paper bag.]

Free? Well! That's one speck opf good luck in this mess, for sure.

[Now, Nathaniel is extremely easy to deceive, but even he has some idea of when he's being lied to, especially if the liar is bad at lying. In a case like this, however, Nathaniel will take any reassurance he can get, even if it is obviously false.]

I... I'm glad to hear it. Why, if there were dangerous happenings aboard... naturally I am concerned for the women, of course, not myself!

[Lie. And Nate is about as good at lying as Herz is.]

Uh, I suppose this is a foolish question, but there wouldn't by some chance be anything around this place that could be used to defend ourselves in case such a situation arose? Or, perhaps, some safe haven?
