voice/action for the Penguin

Maa, well... the wind seems to be dying down a bit.

[though it's still howling outside. He's been in the hold for the better part of three days because, among other things, his sleep mask kept blowing off. An ice shield on the deck was always an option, of course, but when it melted, Coby gave him long dramatic inward sighs and went to get the mop bucket.

So here he is, cross legged in the hold, playing cards, contemplating life and generally trying not to get a crick in his neck]


I hereby petition for a bigger ship. Though I'm not entirely sure which island would be the best choice for that.

[Flips over another card. Diamond. He can't help but think of Diamond Jozu -- Though he is not here. Twelfth Division Haruta, then. Haruta diamond, Portgas spade, Phoenix Marco the club and the hearts were for an entirely group of pirates all together so a high and low joker, then for the two relative uknowns. Fishman Namur. Fourth Divison nee Headhunter Thatch, rumored to have been assassinated by a former nakama but very much alive here. Though perhaps he was in the same boat with Portgas.]

Otherwise, who else would want to make peace with the Navy? [Club. Spade. Heart... he thought he'd shuffled all those out. To the side it goes. There was not a card for Marines of course. They were generally supposed to be the players]

There's always the possibility of finding a shipwright that would expand your current ship, isn't there? It may take awhile, but the cost may be preferable as it would skip the ceiling requirement and you would be able to decide just how much bigger the ship should be. I think that Miss Margie from Blackwater Brig offers such services, though in her case it may be pretty expensive.

[It's the only other suggestion she can offer though it's something she herself has been considering. While they are still enough for their ship, if that manage to get more and more members a bigger ship would be required. The question makes her giggle a bit, or rather she forces one out, but she has enough practice for it to not be noticeable.]

The Queen's Gambit doesn't engage in piracy acts such as pillaging or pursuing conflict with the Navy or the locals. Instead, we sustain ourselves via commerce and trade, though obviously, that's within the black market... Would that make us still full pirates or just merchant-pirates?
