[so thorough! for the first time all day, renge laughs-- and not the "ohoho" laugh, a real, sincere sound of happiness. she writes everything that kairi says down (even though she doesn't need to), and when it's all done, there are more questions.]

I heard something about ships, and pirates. Will the Navy actually kill us? Are we pirates the moment we arrive, or do we have to commit a crime to become on? Or is our crime arriving? Where can one acquire a ship? Is it safer to set out on your own, or try to join a crew? Is there any way I can stay on an island without the Navy because I'm great with ships and I have sea legs, but I'd rather stick to land. If I'm not really... skilled, physically, would I even be able to find a ship that would take me in?
