Week 3

[scurveydog]

Dunno why I put up with ye bastards. Really I don't. Dog has a bluster of a cold this week so no lip or I'll send you to Davy Jones meownself. Bedamned allergies. Give me an island w'out ragweed and I'll gi' ye treasure higher than your grandmother.

Weather

Bedamned if I know. Can't see a thing with this cold, so full of snot I am. Sneezed out a goober as big as me arm, and there's truth to that. Had heard tales of a swarm 'o man eatin ladybirds comin' in from th' Eastern seas but that's likely a rumor. Ugh, me achin' head.

News

Navy is pissed. Yuezhong is up in arms. Zombies in Port Chance where there warn't zombies afore. Tis either Davy Jones or ye brats, and if he's stirrin' it's in a different way. Ye'll pay for it in one way or th' other. If he don't see to that, I will.

Good spot 'o news, Tardle Island be appearin' in the South West startin the week o' the 13th and'll be afloat 'til 'bout Wednesday 'o that week. If anyone be knowin' where a shard may be, it be them. But good luck gettin' it out o them.

More seamonsters be spotted. Kraken ate two of Silverleg's fleet and he only got three ships. Damn beasties.


Now it be time fer questions. Shepherd crew is banned due to the insufferable brat. Flynn Rider be off the hook fer now. I have limited patience so watch yerselves or suffer the consequences.

[and not too long later]

Shepherd Crew be banned til March at the earliest and are lookin' fer a life ban, much like Ganandorf has since he's obviously too good fer the likes 'o me.

Here's one I'm curious about: Why does Davy Jones want the ruby?

[Written]

[dragmire]

At last, a sensible question.

[Written]

[grizzly_tea]

Is there no way for us to repeal our ban? Perhaps an official apology from Conan, or whomever may have offended you?

[She doesn't really care about asking him questions, but it does matter to her crew, and thus it is her duty to at least try to help, even if she doesn't like Scurvy much.]

[soundandfurry]

I'm sorry you're feeling sick... Hmm, I could make you a care package! Though I don't know where to send it...

[scurveydog]

Well looks whose all hoity-toity this week. Decide to drop a line to the old dog did ye?

[dragmire]

Yes, for what little it might gain me. I have no desire to spend my time idly waiting for the opportunity at a single answer.

[Voice]

[collagehero]

Awww, poor Dog! You have allergies and a cold? There must be snot eeeeeverywhere! Stay inside and take a nice long nap and maybe you'll feel better. Maybe take a bath first if you feel itchy, too.

[scurveydog]

Interestin' question that. Jones be half legend, half man. Maybe more one than the other these days. They say he wants it back so's he can rest in peace. Others say that

[though this is written you'll hear the sound reminiscent of a fog horn though it's actually quite a lot of snot]

others say that he wants it to take o'er the world and cast it into enternal night. Or get a hareem o' desirable women to answer his beck and call. He wants it to come back ta life, to usher in peace or doom. It holds the secret to a treasure even vaster and more powerful.

I even heard one moonstruck idjit say he really just wants it because it sparkle like a star.

So that's yer answer as it stands. Dunno how it'll help ye, but if ye really want to know the truth 'o it, ye have to be askin' him what wants it.

[scurveydog]

Well maybe ye'll get no answer. How do ye like that?

[scurveydog]

Want to know? Ask next week.

Oh right. Ye can't.

Go be an idiot somewhere else.

[dragmire]

Then I shall find the answers for myself.

[And not waste my time with a witless messenger.]

[gambliar]

[Did...

...did that just...

...did a fog horn just cut off text?????]

[scurveydog]

Kind 'o ye. I'd tell ye where but ye'd die a horrible and prolonged death if ye tried even ta send it, and no one wants that. The screamin' always gives me a headache.

I've noticed strangers who seem to be in the same situation we found ourselves in. Will this happen often?

[scurveydog]

Thankee, lass. Ye know that's the first person whose looked after the old dog without wantin' somethin' or havin' bein' a right bitch afore hand.

Tell ye what, just for that, ye get a question. Anything ye want.

And for all ye other bastards readin', don't think this'll happen again. It happens when I say it does and not afore or after. And I'm sayin' it happens now.

[soundandfurry]

I guess it's that Davy Jones guy? He seems so grumpy...

[scurveydog]

Kyouya. Lad. It has a hooky bit at the end. Try again next week.

Greetings, Mister Dog:

I'm terribly sorry to hear that you're currently sick, allergies are certainly a thing to take seriously. I hope that you will be able to take proper rest and have a healthy diet in order to recover as quickly as possible.

That said, allow me to thank you for the information you have provided us with. It would be presumptuous of me to speak for everyone else, but I greatly appreciate the welcome message you left in the journal, as well as the current information you just gave us. I will be sure to keep everything in mind, please, be sure to not stress yourself too greatly, specially now that you're sick. I'm sure it would not do anyone, be that us or you, any good if you were to get too sick.

Best regards,

Elizabeth Midford

[scurveydog]

Stop diggin' girlie.

[hostclubshadowking]

The problem with writing while others are. I apologize.

[scurveydog]

Best 'o luck to ye, toad face. Here's two fingers to send ye on yer way.

[scurveydog]

Pay it no mind. In any case, I hain't sure ye'd like the answer.

[dragmire]

Charming.

[He got his answer anyway. So he won't antagonize the messenger any more.]

[gambliar]

[Whatever. Irrelevant. There's obviously lots of reasons for why he could want it, and none of them seem very good. Which is all the more reason to not give it to him.

...though if assembling it means everyone goes home, including her...well...perhaps she'll have to do something about that. Best not to assume anything, though.]


I see. Alright, thank you very much for answering my question. And as for your health, I hope your recovery is swift.

[scurveydog]

Thankee, Miss. Yer a balm to the soul, ye are. Can't tell ye what it means to me to have such a properly worded letter in care to this old Dog. What is given is also received, they say. So who knows what the comin' weeks'll bring ye.
