Week 34 - Can be read by all

Goodness! I've rarely seen the Mistress in such a state! Granted it's in large part due to the massive hangover but she's been mumbling under her breath for days now and sending kicks this poor Meep's way. Whatever you've done I wish you wouldn't. She becomes rather unbearable after a while. At any rate, she wanted me to tell you two things.

[though written through the journal is the faint rustle of paper]

If you haven't received your Typhoon Grips by now, you're out of luck and you'll have to buy them you-- Oh dear, ah-- you-- I can't even think of an appropriate word here. Well, best leave it to your imaginations. Cloud Islands have been released and will be floating in various directions. Instructions on how to use the Grip have come packaged with the instrument. She also wishes to note it's only one per crew, even if you should have multiple ships, and if you should lose it, replacements can come from Backwater at considerable cost.

The second item-- Oh, dear. It seems a little inflammatory. You know there is an old saying, pertaining when wars were fought on land-- there were no kinds of long distance communication and so in order to relay orders from one army to the other, messengers would be dispatched. Whether they carried good news or bad news, the best strategy was often considered not shooting the messenger whatever the news since he is but a humble porter and has no part in these...sorts of situations.

She says that she is lifting the ban on the Spades for the most part just to rub it in the face of those belonging to that-- to that-- Well suffice to say it's a pretty heavy derogatory term addressed to the captain of the Sinewave. Furthermore anyone caught helping that-- insert word here-- will be banned as well. She knows what you do, she says, she's not stupid.

Dear me, dear me. Er well this is a bit unprecedented and I am rather busy with my studies and suchlike, but I will be around for at least a short while to answer any questions you might have... well a few at any rate. I can't have her finding me doing this or...well...suffice to say it won't be particularly...pleasant.

One of her crew tried to kidnap one of our pets, RIGHT FROM THEIR ARMS!

[Grell doesn't know that Fuu is with their crew.]

I know we're pirates, but really?! Sinking to stealing pets?

What? [She actually is surprised. Seriously, who would do that and why?] That's horrible and not right at all. Do you know why they did that?

I haven't the foggiest, but I believe other creatures, the fairies, have been taken by her crew as well.

[From what Arthur has found out from the fairies.]

I...I really had no idea. [If the fairies were willing that was one thing, but it doesn't seem like this to be the case because well...she hadn't been told.]

I should talk to the captain about it and find out why. I... don't agree with stealing. It's not right at all. [But she honestly understands why they are so mad.]
redcinemareel: (Grell: Hmm?)

[Voice]

[personal profile] redcinemareel 2014-05-05 07:48 am (UTC)(link)
...you're part of the crew? [Now Grell is colored surprised!]

The fact that your captain is keeping information from you leaves me a bit concerned.

[What captain would have a need to keep things from the crew, unless it was absolutely necessary, or some information would not be someone's cup of tea? What the hell is Codi playing at with her own crew? Grell tries to think of any reason to keep something from her crew, but she couldn't. She'd at least tell Arthur if something was going on.]

I would definitely speak to her.

I am. [It causes her concern to now she knew things were being kept from her. She only knew to be a little bit deceptive was when you don't trust someone. Usually when you do you tell them and explain, which is what she did once. This seemed different.] Although given this news, I am wondering if this was all we are being kept in the dark about, or why.

[She certainly sounds worried.]

But I promise that I'll try and talk to her as soon as possible. Though if things don't change I'll have to consider my options.
