Voice, after the curse

[unlikelyfarmhand]

[It is likely very early in the morning since Hachiken rises pretty early. There is no sense in delaying the inevitable.]

It seems like our Captain has disappeared. We're really too small as a crew to keep sailing on our own. I don't think we have the skills between us.

I think I need to find a new crew.

All I can really do is cook. I mean, that's my job on the Sinewave. I can look after farm animals but that's not the most useful of skills at sea.

I can learn whatever skills you need me to, I just have spent much of my time in the galley here.

[Sounds friendly.]

The turkey I know how to take care of, so the parrot can't be too dissimilar. I'm afraid I don't know what Yo-chan is either without looking at him.

[voice]

[seadevil]

I'm not sure those of us who have seen him know what he is, either, but you're more than welcome to have a look. He mostly needs some entertainment to keep him occupied, dirt to dig in, and some bugs and worms to fill his fat little belly and he's happy as a clam.

[voice]

[unlikelyfarmhand]

That seems simple enough. Shouldn't be hard to manage.

[voice]

[seadevil]

Not at all! Just be mindful of your shins if he starts swinging that tail of his, that's all.

[He leaves off the "they might get broken otherwise" part.]

[voice]

[unlikelyfarmhand]

I'm used to dodging animals, don't worry! Sometimes horses bite and kick.

[voice]

[seadevil]

Aye, that I well know. His bite isn't quite so bad as a horse's, but he can put as much force behind that tail as a horse can behind a kick. He's but a small thing now, but he may well get to be horse-sized if I raise him up right.

[voice]

[unlikelyfarmhand]

Are you trying to make him horse-sized?

[voice]

[seadevil]

It'd be a sight to see, wouldn't it? He may not fit on the boat anymore once he gets to such a size, but that just means we'll need to build a base by then!

[His optimism is boundless.]

[voice]

[unlikelyfarmhand]

I don't know, I haven't seen him yet.

[voice]

[seadevil]

Well, of course you haven't. You'll need to come to the ship for that.

[voice]

[unlikelyfarmhand]

I'd like to though!

[voice]

[seadevil]

Then what are you waiting for?

[voice]

[unlikelyfarmhand]

Oh, alright! I'll be there soon!
