[Voice/Action for Katabami]

[seadevil]

[Still docked at Mirror Island for obvious reasons, the captain of the Katabami has a dilemma.]

I don't suppose anyone knows what the best course of action is for when you accidentally trade your wife for a tuna..?

[anelegantmyth]

..was it good tuna?

[seadevil]

It was! Well worth the trade! Er...provided we steal him back, that is...

[It really was good tuna, okay? And it's not like he traded Ragna to villains of any sort. The fishmongers seemed like quite nice people, really. Very friendly and enthusiastic. Of course, they were friendly and enthusiastic because they wanted Ragna, but nevertheless...]

[anelegantmyth]

Must have been one hell of a tuna if you had to pay with your wife. I'm sure she'll forgive you for it.

[om_nom_namur]

Why don't y' jus' catch the damn tuna yerself? Dumbass. Sheheheh!

[No, really. That's pretty funny dude.]

[seadevil]

Mind you we could, but that wouldn't guarantee its quality or size. This really was an exceptional tuna.

[Obviously, since the fishmonger saw it as a worthy dowry for his daughter. Too bad Motochika couldn't understand a word the man said.]

[om_nom_namur]

Gotta recruit yerself a fishman or mermaid t' go get 'em for y'. Give 'em 'nuff love an' they might do it for free.

[....this has gotta be a joke]

Hit yourself in the head until your stupidity goes away

[and stop making marriage look bad. You're not helping]

[seadevil]

No sense in being snippy about it. It isn't as if it was your wife I traded.

[crankyshark]

I don't have a wife. Yet.

[he sounds pretty grouchy]

And I might never have one if morons keep getting on the journal and making marriage sound like a dang game.

[harbouredheart]

...

Hope that they don't realise that he has a bounty on his head, which surely exceeds the value of the tuna.

They'll soon regret acquiring him once they discover his personality. Compensate them for the tuna in exchange for his return. Just... be careful not to accidentally barter something valuable away.

[seadevil]

I was thinking maybe if we left him there long enough, they'd give us another tuna to take him back...

[harbouredheart]

[She might sound amused by the whole mess if she were less composed.]

That would be fortituous. Still, there's no reason to take advantage of them.

I do hope that this isn't a reflection of the state of all your marriages.

[seakingbait]

...Were you going to marry the tuna?

[This is vital.]

voice;

[seadevil]

What?? No! I wanted to eat the tuna!

[Possibly all of the tuna, but he was generous enough to share it with the crew. Minus Ragna, of course.]

[seakingbait]

Gyah!! You traded your wife for dinner?! Just how hungry are you?!

[whitedragon_abs]

Go rescue your wife of course!

[seadevil]

Well, it's not like I don't plan on doing that...

[It's just that Ragna is going to make his life miserable when he does and he'd really rather not have to deal with that if he doesn't have to.]

[twinkletwinklelittlestar]

[Yoshitsugu has been avoiding the shit out of Chousokabe and following Mitsunari around making shoujo eyes at him or something, but he can't help overhearing. He's aware of (and greatly pleased by) the tuna situation, but...]

... your wife?

[It carries his usual disdain, but the way he says it conveys "what the fuck?" more than it does "I'm biding my time for an opportunity to get away with murdering you."]

[seadevil]

Aye, that's what I said. I'm surprised you haven't heard his bellyaching about it yet. Maybe you should wrap that head of yours a little looser.

[You don't get any of the nice tuna, either. Jerk.]

[voice]

[fierybluebird]

How do you accidentally trade your wife for a tuna?

[voice]

[seadevil]

Couldn't understand a word the girl at the stall was saying, nor anything her father said after she called him in. We thought we were negotiating a deal for the tuna, but it seems the girl thought we were accepting it as her dowry.

[glyph_witch]

How does one accidentally do something like that?

[seadevil]

How many times am I to be made to explain it?

[Voice]

[chasing_waterfalls]

...wha...how?

[Voice]

[seadevil]

I've not much interest in explaining the how. If I wanted to, I would have done so from the start.
