Hey guys! I learned this language you guys all speak, so now I'm totally straight up good for hanging!

This ship is MAD huge. It's so First Age all over the place. My dad would be going crazy if he could see this thing. Speaking of my dad, does anybody know him? His name's Ashoka. He's your main man for pirate slaying if you're in Creation

If you jump off the ship, you'll die. Please don't try.

But if I see any pirates, I'll be sure to call you.

[sunofasailor]

I wouldn't jump off. I'd need a ladder, and a smaller boat to get out to the wake. It'd be mad fun.

[canttrustliars]

Pretty sure you'd still die. Or at least be transported back up.

[sunofasailor]

Aww man, that's lame. But I wouldn't die, because I can breathe underwater. Still, they can transport us right back up? Can I get them to hold off on it while I have some fun? Who does that?

[nantokanare]

Asho- da.

[He snickers weakly. Why yes, that was a very lame, contrived Japanese pun. Hope you enjoy.]

[sunofasailor]

I don't get it.

[nantokanare]

I was answering your question.

[His voice is very quiet, conserving enegry right now is important, you see.]

[sunofasailor]

You didn't answer any of my questions, you just said my dad's name in a way I'm pretty sure was supposed to be insulting! Whatever language it's supposed to be insulting in, I don't speak it, so whatever, but hey! Not cool, buddy. Not cool.

[queerfluidity]

First Age?

[sunofasailor]

Yeah, the time thousands of years ago when everything was amazing and magical before the Dragonblooded usurped the Solars, the Contagion hit, the fair folk invaded, and everything went to shit long enough for a fuckton of knowledge and artifacts to be lost. Like this boat! It's awesome!

[queerfluidity]

...yeah, that's nothing like what happened where I'm from.

[sunofasailor]

What happened where you're from?

[psychoticracer]

Next time we get endless hordes of zombie pirates that paralyze you with their screams, we'll see how long that attitude lasts, boy.

[sunofasailor]

[Lucien yawns]

Been there. Done that. Bought the tunic.

[psychoticracer]

We'll see.

Second mate used to be one of theirs. You go ask her, if you think yourself so tough.

[Erol's opinion of this brat is inversely proportionate to his bragging. He's so unimpressed.]

[sunofasailor]

What? I'm not kidding, man, I've seen zombie pirates before. Dad's the captain of the navy that keeps them in line.

I don't think I'm tough, I am tough. Comes with the Exaltation. Not as tough as my dad, but he's been a Solar for like . . . 16 years, I think. You can't get much tougher than that. Unless you're like, a Deathlord. And even they have weaknesses.

Seriously, call me when the cannibalistic castration-happy demon pirates show up on deck. But, uh, lemme know where my bow is first. 'Cause I can take a guy in a fist fight, but that's NOTHING compared to my mad shootin' skills.

[so_flighty]

I don't think I've ever surfed before, period! I don't think I've been in the pool, either. Huh.

[audio]

[sunofasailor]

What? That's not cool! You're gonna come visit me, right? I'm like, the best swimming teacher a lady could ask for.

[audio]

[so_flighty]

Oh, sure I can do that, yeah! I suck at swimming, ha.

Not anymore, you don't! Prepare to learn from the best!
