piratejournal | [Written] And now for something completely different from the last time

Marco here.

Sorry for my state in the last post, and thank you very much to those sweet enough to humor me, you're too kind.

Bepo, and Vyse, I have duplicates of my maps for you, assuming you both still want them.

For everyone else, I've made about twenty copies of various maps and directions to the Corsair Naval Masquerade Ball. Likewise, in the interest of furthering piracy rebelling against lawful order, I will teach the basics of ranks to anyone with enough brains to actually hold the knowledge. Remember, if you want to go, wear formal costume, and pretend to be part of the navy. Anyone in the Spades wishing to help infiltrate must be able to perform a correct salute and demonstrate ability to discern when it's appropriate. Those who cannot may help infiltrate as waiters.

Thank you.
- Marco

Edited Addendum: Dance lessons for Spades unfamiliar with waltz, samba, and tango will be held every night this week. Namur's breakdance competition comes with a reward, but this style of dance is not acceptable for naval officers, sorry Nam-chan.

I am embarrassed to say I have about three favors to ask of you.

[Locked to Grell Sutcliff]

Hello Kitten. How do you feel about getting a little vengeance, eh?

My phoenix brother and I are in the mood to spread our wings. Think you can get a babysitter that night to come have fun?

That is quite a bit of information that you have there, some of which could be rather useful.

I'll make note of all of this and see when it might be of use later. Thank you.

Ensign and up in my world can wear the justice emblem jacket on their back, Captains can have a lot more free reign with their personal alterations, and Rear Admirals and up have tassels on the shoulders.

So people like that back home were much easier to notice with things like that.

Which makes me wonder if things like this were normal in your world? It explains why you know so much?

The navy here uses at least similar rankings and identifying markers.

And it's very normal back in my world, correct. I wouldn't consider myself that knowledgeable, however, I've just been at this for a lot of years.

To me you are very knowledgeable especially in an area I know very little about.

I'm hoping to learn more, actually.

So there really is more to learn. Simply fascinating. Then again there is much to learn in life in general.

Indeed, but even just to know how much the navy knows of us outworlders would be helpful.

I bet you if they had that kind of information it would probably be somewhere very secure.

Which is why I won't be letting amateurs do anything they're not up to the task of.

Then it's best to plan according to those that can. Those that can't can probably do others things when you get down to it.

Everybody has something they're good at. I'm not going to let anyone trip me up, but there's only so much one can plan around a captain such as mine.

Oh. So what is your captain like anyway?

Rambunctious, wild, unpredictable, hot-tempered, and a fiery little brat.

He's one of my favorite people ever born.

You must admire him a lot then?

He's still my little brother so "admire" would be pretty embarrassing in this context.

[But accurate.]

Very well. I can't think of a better word of the top of my head, but I understand.

I should really go and note this down somewhere that isn't this journal. It was simply interesting speaking to you.
