On this fair warm September afternoon, Captain Jack Sparrow can be found walking very slowly through town with a bunch of colorful floating balloons in his hand and a thick sheaf of papers under his arm.

[Nagisa's just walking around town when she notices Jack. ..Or rather, when she notices the balloons. Why does that pirate man have so many balloons? ...They're kind of hard to ignore. So bright and colorful and all.]

[repeatsyearly]

Ohh... I guess you're right. They are spirits, after all. Maybe you can ask them? [Nagisa why are you so derp.] What kind s of special powers do you want, anyway? [The thought of magic and powers here is still so new to her.]

H-huh? Really? But... That would mean one less balloon for the wind spirit.

[lists_to_port]

[But one balloon would be a very fair price for some relief from these QUESTIONS.]

I insist, darling! One balloon, your choice, and we neither of us spill the theft to said wind spirit!

[repeatsyearly]

[Touche!]

Alright! Thank you very much! Umm... may I have a green one then, please?

[What a kind man! And so she'll also ask-] Um, my name's Nagisa. What's your name?

[lists_to_port]

Captain Jack Sparrow, and please please take a green one, Nagisa. Here. Take. Take it. [He will pass the balloon into her hands after untangling it from its brethren.]

[repeatsyearly]

[And she will take it! And then proceed to give him a big smile. ...And ask him another question.]

Captain? So... You really are a pirate?

[lists_to_port]

[ALL HE WANTS IS TO CONTACT THIS WIND SPIRIT AND DO SOME LAUNDRY. AND. QUESTIONS!!]

AYE, lass! A true and real and genuine pirate, me! I've sailed every sea there is in my world!

[Poor Jack.]

Oh wow! Really?! That's so cool! It sounds like something I'd see in a book.. or even a movie! [lol.] You must have seen lots of things around your world then, huh?

[lists_to_port]

Oh, aye! Plenty of....things. Large things, small things, not-good-smelling things, things with nine legs. Things, darling, what would frighten you right into a closet.

[repeatsyearly]

Those are sure a lot of different things! It must've been really fun to see them all! ...Though I'm sure I would end up getting scared, had I seen them...

[lists_to_port]

Yes. Yes. Horribly terrified, you would be! All those...all those things, comin' right at you! So many!

Are there horrifying and dangerous things where you're from?

[Not that he really wants to know but perhaps it can be a DISTRACTION QUESTION.]

[repeatsyearly]

You must be so brave, then! To be able to face all of those things.

U-umm... Not particularly, aside from the usual dangerous animals, I guess.

[Earth's pretty boring you know. ..BUT JACK, IF YOU'RE ASKING HER QUESTIONS, THAT'S COUNTERPRODUCTIVE, ISN'T IT?]

[lists_to_port]

Erm....of course. Brave. Courageous. Very. Very brave, me. But that's a blessing, eh? Only ordinary dangerous animals? You must be highly thankful, little mistress.

[repeatsyearly]

Hmmm... I guess so! I'd probably be really scared if my home had anything other than that. But I love where I come from very much so... I guess I am thankful for that, then.

[lists_to_port]

[He knows he will regret asking this but]

And where is that, lass? Your home?

[repeatsyearly]

[gg]

My home? It's in Japan. Hikarizaka, specifically. It's a really nice town, and I love it very, very much. Do you know of Japan, Jack?
