Huh. So that's what Dickensian means.

[Far from learning from the experience, Toph is already thinking up ways to out-kid any of the kids who over-ran the ship this weekend.]

Well! Glad that's over.

So before the next shake-up hits; anyone wanna take a guess at what happens to us if this tub sinks before we get to the Golden Whatever?

Every reptile for himself?

[rocklikerunaway]

What, you gonna swim the rest of the way?

What if you need to ask for directions?

[thepartydude]

Turtle's gotta do what a turtle's gotta do.

And besides, real men don't ask for directions.

[Says the 18 year old. :|]

[rocklikerunaway]

Real men also aren't turtles. They're men.

Unless you're a turtle-man.

[There're lion-turtles, turtle-seals, turtle-ducks, turtle-turtles, kung-fu turtles; a turtle-man makes about as much sense, so why not?]

[royalguarantee]

...but the ship will not sink, correct?

[rocklikerunaway]

Not if the Captain's so great like everyone says.

But where I'm from, ships don't shake like that unless something's wrong.

Usually it's sea-serpents.

[Is she kidding? Can you tell?]

[royalguarantee]

[No, he really can't.]

But! But that is your world. The Sea Serpents are in your world, right? And not in.

Well.

Not in this one.

[He chuckles nervously.]

[rocklikerunaway]

Well they were there when I left. I'm not going fishing to find out if they followed me.

Could be that we're under attack. You seen any other boats around?

[She's terrified of the boat sinking and her drowning. No really. But you gotta play it cool with things like this.]
