[for a moment there is just the sound of quiet surf and the call of shore birds and then Thatch sighs]

Ahh, what a beautiful day. Just look at that blue sky. Feel that wind. It's so calm and peaceful...

Which means, of course, we should go find some Navy men to badger. After all, its our civic duty, as scurvy dogs of the sea, to make sure they're kept on their nimble little toes.

Whose with me?

[a bored and on edge Thatch is a dangerous thing]

[om_nom_namur]

Bored as shit, huh? The hell's Sweetwater like, anyway?

[thatched]

Who knows? Who cares? It's just an island like any other. [sighs, resting his chin on his arms] Not even anything interesting to do. I want life, Namur.

[om_nom_namur]

'Bout time y' got 'round t' wantin' one 'gain. Sheheheh! Let's get y' one. Marco says we're gonna figure out goin' back an' forth with our mem'ries intact so what kinda stories y' wanna tell yer Division boys when we bring 'em, huh?

[private]

[thatched]

I don't want to hear what Marco says about that. Don't say it again or I'll kick your ass. [it's too hard to believe it right now. Has there been any evidence? No.] Let's talk about here and now, can we?

[private]

[om_nom_namur]

[Gee, where has he heard that threat before?]

Fine by me, Slughair! Though my here an' now for me is bummin' a ride t' Deesuko Ballia with the Roses. They got some new crew lately. Some dumbass used t' be captain a- get this- the Jellybrain Pirates. Seriously, not shittin' y'. An' some girl that tastes weird. Somethin' wrong with her but I ain't had a chance t' talk t' her one on one yet. Cute though. Like Rose only less scowly. Sheheheh!

[originaldragoon]

So we get some peace and quiet for once, and that is an indicator for us to stir up some trouble?

[Rose is totally shaking her head now, even though he can't see it.]

I am not sure if I will ever get used to this part of being a pirate.

[thatched]

No one is saying you have to go, sweetheart. And I don't plan on anyone coming back to get revenge. [at least not right away]

voice

[originaldragoon]

I am not refusing to go. If the rest of the crew is up for it, I might as well come along too.

voice

[thatched]

Are you going to have fun?

voice

[originaldragoon]

I cannot promise that. Before, I had only fought out of duty, not for fun.

[song_princess]

I am sorry but at this time I must decline, brother...

[thatched]

Understood, fair princess.

[he whistles a short mostly meaningless tune to make her smile]

Is there anything I can get you while I sail the wild blue? Some ribbons for your hair? A new dress?

[song_princess]

[And she does, it always silly and cute when he does that.]

I cannot be as selfish as to ask for such things but if you see anything, I will not reject any gifts.

[thatched]

I will get you something so beautiful it could almost compare to you, Princess. I say almost because there's nothing that can even come close.

[song_princess]

[Okay, she has to laugh a little.]

I doubt there I am more beautiful than anything out in the ocean, brother.

[Voice]

[fierybluebird]

I am not busting you out when you get caught.

[Voice]

[thatched]

[feels intensely guilty for many things, but the most of which for doubt. But he is good enough that Marco wouldn't be able to catch it. Right? Right. ...Right?]

I'll be on my best behavior.

[Voice]

[fierybluebird]

[No, but Marco is a miniature train wreck himself trying not to fly to pieces so it's all good.]

I'm sure you will. And I've no doubt that won't spare me the trouble, yoi.

Can't you take up mahjong like others your age?

[Voice]

[thatched]

Are you calling me old, feather fart?! [he feels less bad for doubting you now]

[Voice]

[redcinemareel]

Is there room for trouble~ still?

[Someone's ready to stretch their claws.]

[Voice]

[thatched]

There's always room for trouble when it comes to you and I, my dear.

I figure I can snoop around the town, see where likely targets are out there...and then perhaps we can hit them together in a blaze of sadistic glory, ma petite tronçonneuse.

[Voice]

[redcinemareel]

[She's very good at burning things!]

What a lovely idea~! If you have any leads on where to scout out first, by all means, do share.

[Voice]

[thatched]

I thought we could discover that ourselves, ma cherie. With your hand on my arm and mine on your thigh. What do you say?

[arcadiasailor]

Now that just reminds me how I'm neglecting that navy crew I know back out in the Sea of Stars. [ Good thing time was likely different between here an there, dealing with him was the Karyu's sole misstion.]

[thatched]

We're all neglecting our Navy crews at the moment, mate. But tell me about them.
