[Red, cursive script appears on the journals.]

Dear Captains of Various Crews of Those Spirited Away by Davy Jones,

Would you ever keep a secret from your crew? Why or why not?

Personally, I'm not sure what secret would be deemed worth keeping away from my crew, but I'd think I'd be able to confide in at least my first mate. It could depend on the secret, itself. Is it one that will spare them my tragic end from an incurable illness? Then perhaps I'd keep it for a bit, until I knew that it was truly incurable.

Really, being captain is a harder job than one may think. I took that role on knowing the difficulty, however.

Overall, I would not keep secrets that directly influence my crew or their interests if I could help it, whether or not the secret would affect those secrets positively or negatively. If I can't trust my crew, then I might as well end their lives right now, since their presence would be unnecessary.

[The next part is added a moment later.]

As if they would go down easily, or at all!

Best Regards,
Captain Grell the Red

P.S.
If there are those who held positions of leadership in your world who also wish to reply and aren't captains, it would be appreciated.

So long as you have no regrets, eh?

Go get 'em, Kitten.

I don't plan to have any!

Such a supportive birdie you are~!

[You know what? He blames Thatch for this. He has some sort of Pavlovian reaction to being called a birdie now.]

Well, I was never one to root for the underdog.

And your crew is sweeter.

[Tracing patterns idly on the wood railing of his ship.]

Awww~! So cute! I like your crew, too~!

[Gosh, all they need are spiral phone wires to curl around their fingers and they'll be teenagers.]

[Seriously.]

Clearly you should come visit more often. But your crew is so bright and feisty! And hella loyal, eh?

I do! We've been quite preoccupied, you know!

[The ball, two run ins with two different crews...yeah, she's been busy!]

Have you met the others?

Some, but not all. [He only "met" Dave when he had to subdue Grell after all so ehhhh...]

I approve of the girl who nicknamed Loganberry.

Oh, you heard that, too? Isn't it adorable?! They make a cute couple!

Absolutely! [A totally giddy happy chirp. He is still a little spring fever hungover and all about everyone having a happy romantic relationship of some sort, for some reason.] We should set them up on a date.
