03 written: private from rogue - action for isla empieza

[So a New Year's around the corner and Remy hasn't worked in about...oh, four months? Which is a terrifying dry spell. So he decided to change that.

Remy thought about trying to be sneaky about this and trying to make it anonymous somehow but that seemed kind of impossible with the whole journal thing. At least he can pick who the hell sees this. Or doesn't.

So. Job.]

Anyone interested in getting a little work and a lot of coin? Strong, sneaky and okay with stealing something preferably.

Reply. I'll send coordinates and we can talk about it.

[action]

[If he does send you coordinates, they'll be to a familiar place. Everyone knows Isla Empieza, hopefully everyone can understand coordinates well enough to find the Tavern. There's plenty of a crowd at the Tavern today - and it makes it easy to catch who's coming inside without looking as if he's staring.]

Why the hell not? This havin' a horse's ass thing's gettin' kinda old.

[Remy has to think about that for a minute, trying to decide if Namur is talking about him or something else....either way...

...I don't even wanna know. ]

Alright den. [He sounds pretty pleased at least.]Client's from Himmelen lookin' t'acquire some heavy workin' parts of a machine from a Mr. Magnus - still interested?

[It's a Centaurea thing.]

Magnus, huh? 'S ringin' a bell but I can't say where from, so I guess he ain't important. Hear tell Himmelen folk're uppity shits, though. How's the payout?

'pparently he's some kinda inventor or engineer. 3,000 dubloons in total.

Only 3k? Damn yer cheap t' hire.

[Namur hasn't changed his perception of money. His home world's currency is a lot higher inflated.]

[Marco flicks Namur in the back of the head.]

Three thousand is huge here. Closer to 30 mil back home. [Marco, on the other hand, quickly gets numbers, if not much else.]

What, seriously? Shit, booze's expensive as hell 'round here.

[You know. Doing the rough math. He knows about counting zeroes.]

Hey Marco, ever heard a some guy called Magnus? Could swear I heard it but I ain't met the guy.

[Namur has an excellent memory for people, but it's based on smell and electrochemical signatures.]

Aye. Booze is anywhere between thirteen and twenty times more expensive than home, and ships aren't even one-tenth the usual price. It's part of why I'm so hesitant to let the Moon go.

Magnus....

[You're asking a man who has over 30,000 names and faces on mental storage. This is going to take awhile, Namur.]

Possibly... [Takes off his fake glasses that he's wearing because journal = reading mode = "SERIOUS FACE" -- and rubs the bridge between his eyes.] Do you have any other details to go with it?

Jus' what Rogue's not!Boyfriend said.

[And then more directed at the journal.]

So where y' wanna meet up, Not!Boyfriend? Sheheheh!

O-oi... don't call him that.

[Replays the convo for his own sake.] Eh, I think it's just a coincidence. Maybe we recognize the name from home, eh? But I'll check with Thatch to make sure it's not on any of our navy docs.

[The Not!Boyfriend in question wishes he could somehow get Rogue to hear this without her finding out he's...doing the one thing he knows she'll disapprove of. Or at least, he thinks he knows.

Regardless, he's more amused than offended.]

Hows about the tavern at Isla Emperiza? We can figure out things from dere.

[Specifically transportation of goods and what to do if it all goes to shit.]

Sounds like a plan.

Namur and I will meet you there, yoi.

[Remy's found a nice corner of the tavern that is loud enough that no one can really hear you, but in a void of sound where talking plainly will be enough. He's managed - somehow - to keep it empty without sitting at it, mostly because his line of sight to the door from there is shit and he wants to know when Marco and Namur show up.

If they show up.]

[Oh they'll be there, but there's only so conspicuous a shirtless tattooed pineapple head turned human and an eight foot tall fishman resembling a bullshark can be.]

[Hope you don't mind.]

What is it? [it sounds like an adventure so if it's exciting he wants to but if not he doesn't care]

Pretty simple snatch job. Supposed t'head Northeast and take a super-sized heater apart without gettin' caught. Y'strong?

I can shatter it. [he doesn't know about anything else though]

A little less smash and a little more grab, but I like de enthusiasm.

Ehh that sounds kinda boring. [so not for him] But good luck, guy!

Aye.

Even if I have to bribe someone to babysit the crew. I'm dying to get away for something fun, yoi.

[Especially since the last island turned him into an ostrich and he couldn't fly much less sneak into the caves and steal things.]

[Just the guy he was hoping to hear from!]

Can' leave 'em alone for a second, huh?

[Families.]

Aye.

This is why I made Rogue Third Mate. So she can go her own way, but also because the others need someone to keep an eye on them and hold them in check, eh?

Good choice.

[For some reason, even though Rogue's "promotion" doesn't affect him in any way, shape, or form...he sounds pleased.]

Thank you, I certainly thought so.

Have you met any others of the crew too yet?

Yo' Wolverine and Shark-Boy de only ones so far.

[He'll probably get a 'I'll cut you if you make Rogue cry' speech from everyone at least once.]

You might want to meet King Naesala. You might find yourselves with things in common, eh.

Oh?

[The inflection that accompanies the single word says he's not sure if thats a good thing or a bad thing.]

[A small laugh.] In a good way, yoi. He's one of the few people who understands the more fun parts of piracy, eh.
