[After the fiasco last time Mildmay tried to use the journals, he wants everything to be properly planned out before he makes a fool of himself again. As such, you can almost hear him counting off discussion topics on his fingers:]First, uh, I heard lots of folks's stories and shit, here. Stories I ain't never heard before. I'm a ( Read more... )

[Mildmay just assumes he's been muttering into incomprehensibility again; very slow, he says:]

I... got... work... on... a... ship. Used... to... play... cards.

...You worked on a ship and play cards.

[Because more than one sailor has been alerted by this.]

...did I mumble or something?

[voice] lists_to_port May 30 2011, 04:37:47 UTC
Nah, not at all.

...Right, perhaps a little. I might have some ship-work for you, eventually. Once the chundering stops...

I wouldn't mind something to do around here. Don't reckon I can climb the... [What were they called...] ropes [Close enough!] anymore.

[Very quickly, and rather slurred, he says:] ...god fucking dammit, did I stutter?

[And then, more slowly, he tries again, because very likely whoever this guy is, he didn't understand it.] Yeah, I did. Mostly chores and shit; I ain't no proper sailor.

What sort of card games do you play?

[voice] ohmykethe May 30 2011, 04:48:23 UTC
Long Tiffany, mostly. I can manage The Griffin and Pegasus and Blue Bonny, too, course.

[Stories? No, he's not one for telling stories, and as for that second part he simply can't abide the language. 'motherfuckers' indeed.

In truth he's about to give up on this delinquent entirely, but then that last section brings along a ray of hope. Although this man may be uncouth he is nonetheless willing enough to improve himself through the service of others. Jolly good. Perhaps under the employ of a proper gentleman? But all that swearing! Which leaves...]

You worked on a ship?

...And play cards?

[Under his breath, Mildmay can be heard-- with an amount of comprhihensibility that is quite frankly up in the air-- to mutter:] Oh, for fuck's sake.

[More clearly:] Yeah. I worked on the Morskaiakrov for a bit before it fucking sank. And I play cards well enough. Ain't never heard of whist.

[The cursing draws an inaudible wince from the admiral. He steels himself before replying;]

Might I ask what rank you held aboard the... ship?

Reply

[voice] ohmykethe May 30 2011, 13:35:26 UTC
I weren't no proper sailor, I didn't have a rank beside 'that guy who carries heavy things and climbs ropes'.
