1st Dime $ Arrival on Isla Empieza $ [VOICE]

[Without any warning or provocation a voice sounded over the journals. The most notable aspect of this broadcast was the rich Scottish accent that accompanied it.]

I want some answers, and I want them now.

[The irritation was evident in the way the words were emphasized. Despite the brief message from someone going by the name Scurvey Dog, Scrooge McDuck was not satisfied. The magical journal wasn't the most unfathomable part of this scenario. His inventor, Gyro Gearloose, could have concocted something like this... and if it actually was magic, well he'd run into enough of that within his life too.]

I demand to speak to the man in charge..............

[There was a slight pause in words, but he had one more thing to say before he was finished.]

Jones has some nerve kidnaping Scrooge McDuck. He obviously doesn’t know who he’s dealing with. Time is money, and I don’t have any time to waste. Now where is this blaggard?

Not when you forget to close your journal...

[Not that he would have paid him anything anyway]

I gave you too much credit when I only called you a halfwit.

Ducky-boy, y' might find yerself eatin' them words somewhere down the line. I'm the biggest, shittiest, most annoyin' bottom feeder yer ever gonna meet.

[And yep, he sounds damn proud of it, too.]

...Yeah I can kinda attest to that.

Yer gonna be scrapin' barnacles all a next week.

You know that takes me no time at all.

What, seriously? Shit, that's useful. We'll stick y' on it every week for both ships. Sound good?

...Greeeaaat.

[Shouldn't have bragged, Korra...]

Totally! I'll come 'long t' help still if y' want company.

[He's winking at her irl.]

Eeehhheh... Thanks.

[Scraping barnacles might be easier when you're the Avatar, but it still sucks.]

Any time sweetheart!

[He laughs heartily.]

[The girl sure wasn't help change Scrooge's opinion about the guy]

I guess I needn't have insulted you at all.. you're doing a fine job all on your own.

[Yeah- he's not afraid of you]

What, y' can't come up with nothin' more creative?

I can but it would be wasted on someone who couldn't appreciate what was being said.

Naw dude, someone 'round here's got a dictionary, I'm pretty sure. Hit me.

[He was flummoxed for a few moments.]

.. You actually want to be insulted?

[What a strange creature this guy was]

...................Maybe I should be the one charging a fee.

Shit, slingin' a good insult's part a the job, aye? Step it up Ducky-boy, yer flounderin'.

It's not a part of my job..

I have better things to do with my time than trade insults with an imbecilic cretin with more gills than sense. Find your entertainment elsewhere!

[You will hear the journal slamming shut here.]

[If McDuck bothers to come back later, he'll hear.]

That was seriously half-assed, man. Give y' points for workin' a fish reference in though. Six a ten. Sheheheh!

[He can't resist a look....]

As if you could do any better. You 'canna say anything without resorting to profanity.

[He laughs, then stops and thinks for at least a full minute. Sixty seconds. Count them in your brain. C-O-U-N-T themmmmm....]

Shit. Think y' might be right. No, wait! Ain't ever met such a haughtyass- nope. Damn. How 'bout a motherfu- shit.

[This is harder than he thought it would be.]

Okay, okay, think I got one now. Uh. Lessee. Y' got more feathers'n smarts, an' more faults'n feathers, an y' couldn't even get it up 'nuff t' fill out a pair a women's panties. Shehehyeaaaaahhhh!

Was jus' playin' with yer name, though, I ain't got any idea if y' got feathers for real or not.

Go on now, you're not giving up that easily are you?

[He hassled the shark. Go on. I-M-P-R-E-S-S Me...]

[Then the other started to speak once more. Crossing his arms, and tapping a foot impatiently, he yawned loud enough for his opposition to hear it]

See, it's just as I ... [Trails off.. and the rest of his sentence comes out sounding more like a question than a statement] ... said? [Aghast was the only way to describe his reaction to that string of insults. The first two hadn't been too bad- they were wrrrrong but they didn't cause the level of revulsion that the last one did.]

I don't even want to dignify that with a response... [Yeah he hadn't been expecting it to get cruder than the oil his company pumped out of the ground but there it was. In hindsight he shouldn't have posed the challenge in the first place.] I suppose it's my fault for talking to this dunder-headed fish brain in the first place.. [More to himself than Namur] Those were terrible lad, absolutely terrible.

I do, but that's beside the point. If you're going to insult someone then you've got to have a grain of truth in what you say. I didn't get this rich by being stupid. [And I'm NOT GOING TO COMMENT ON THE REST OF IT]

Well hell I was jus' makin' guesses. Don't know y' from krill, y' know? Sheheheh! So y' seriously got feathers, huh? Shit, figured y' was human or somethin'.

Why does everyone assume that? [There seemed to be only nothing but humans here... and one ... loudmouthed shark] You're not the only one of your kind, are yee? There must be others- perish the thought - like ya' back home.

Are you used to conversing with more humans, or more of your own kind?

Sheheheheh! Shit, got a whole nation a fishfolk back home, an' there's a pretty li'l mergirl sailin' with the Strawhats from the Island same as me. But I been livin' on the surface more'n fifteen years, an' most a the people here on the journals is humans, or close 'nuff. Used t' be 'nother shark hangin' 'round tellin' everyone some whaleshit 'bout bein' King but I ain't seen or heard from him in awhile.

You know- now that I think of it, this wouldn'ta be the first time I've spoken to a marine-based species...

[He hadn't gotten along with the merpeople in the Marinara Trench either....]

I had noticed the growing pattern. I wonder why Jones has brought such a disproportionate amount of humans here in comparison to other species...

[And he's a little curious about the mermaid]
