[Audio] ALL THE DRAMATICS! A cry for anarchy! This is war!

[fierybluebird]

Pirates of the world, RISE UP I say!

This world claims we do not belong here! The people of this world say we have no home, no place on these seas, in this world! I disagree! [Oh lord, Marco's going full steam here.] My world had no use for monsters like us either! My world made it a sin and a crime for some of us to even be born. Well, to hell with that, say I! ARE WE PIRATES OR ARE WE COWARDS?!

I FOR ONE, BEAR THE FLAG OF MY FATHER AND BROTHERS! LET US TAKE OVER THESE SEAS, AND CLAIM OUR PLACE IN A WORLD ONCE AND FOR ALL! LET US SHOW THE WORLD THAT WE WILL NOT BE DENIED OR IGNORED!

Let us show the world that this era is OURS!

[AND WITH THAT: he lets out a huge phoenix cry of victory.] SCRAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWW!!!!

[We now return you to your daily journal entries of everything else completely different.]

[crackpotcrocker]

Mmmm. Never heard a phoenix before but WHY NOT! There's fairies here! Anything can be possible!

[Not to mention the green snow and few other things, why not?]

I believe I told you about my life from where I'm from... And I'm not going to have another place tell, I, Mr. Crocker! That I don't belong here! So yes I do agree.

[fierybluebird]

You're not going to try to kidnap phoenixes now too, are you?

[crackpotcrocker]

[The response is such disinterest.] No. That would be one of my relatives.

[fierybluebird]

Kindly keep him away from yours truly then.

[crackpotcrocker]

That won't be hard... ^{Considering they're no longer among the living in my world.}

[fierybluebird]

The dead show up here too, thanks to the time fold in dragging people across so much space.

[crackpotcrocker]

...Well that's not - [Denzel rubs his opposite arm nervously for a moment.]

I take it you know someone from your world that this has happened with?

[fierybluebird]

No.

Just saying.

[SO MUCH LYING.]

[crackpotcrocker]

Oh. Well you know more about this place then I do.

[Poor sap can't even tell.]

[fierybluebird]

[Most people can't.]

I've been here awhile.

[crackpotcrocker]

How long?

[fierybluebird]

Long enough to stake my claim.

[crackpotcrocker]

[Crocker just pulls his mouth down, fair enough.]

LOOK! I'm not interested in taking your phoenix. Or genies or leprechauns or unicorns or whatever else!

Just - FAIRIES!

[fierybluebird]

I meant my claim on the world.

The phoenix isn't mine, he's a free creature.

[crackpotcrocker]

Why didn't you heck didn't you say that?

Oh, I thought you meant that phoenix was a pet like that - FAIRY! With England.

[fierybluebird]

I don't have pets.

[crackpotcrocker]

My mistake.

[There's a rather long pause.]

Awkward.

But why not? Pets are the best thing in the world to have!

[At least when you don't have people friends.]

... I wonder if they know I'm gone.

[fierybluebird]

You had a lot of pets in your world?

[crackpotcrocker]

Five hound dogs and a house full of spiders.

Always wanted a bird though for some reason, not sure exactly why but never found one injured outside.

[fierybluebird]

A house of spiders?

[crackpotcrocker]

That's just a plain silly question - Yes!

...They don't have anywhere else to go so I let them stay in the cracks in the floor, stairs and walls of the house. And let them crawl on me.


Mother doesn't like them but I don't give a HOOT what she thinks!

[fierybluebird]

That is seriously messed up, yoi.

[crackpotcrocker]

What is?

[fierybluebird]

Letting spiders live in your cracks and crawl over you.

Don't you know you could wind up eating a bunch of them in your sleep without even realizing it?!

[crackpotcrocker]

I wouldn't eat my friends!
