[Privately to Barbossa first:] Sorry to be disturbing you, Captain, but Jack has gone... missing and I fear it may be for the worst.

[Then out across the journal to anyone who might be listening:

His voice sounds out through the journal in a mixture of angry and baffled as he speaks with slow certainty.]

It seems more ill luck has struck The Charming Murderess as our captain is nowhere to be found aboard. Nor has he used the Nave to go off ship. The chances of him being taken, or of him falling overboard are dreadfully slim.

[Gibbs pauses a moment before continuing to speak. He will not hazard a guess as to what might have befallen Jack, and it is almost embarrassing to have to ask, but given the strangeness of this place he feels the need to inquire to other ships and crews, to see if this sudden disappearance is common.]

I know not what has befallen him or if this infernal place has found a new way to torment us. Insight to the cause of this would not go amiss. If you have any sound idea as to why the captain would unwillingly abandon his ship, I'd be most obliged to know.

I suppose you are afraid that I will vanish next.

[yatteyanyo]

I never said that. Shut up, you old vixen.

[sun_goddess_sacrifice]

Oh? Did I spy the truth? Do not fret so.

[yatteyanyo]

Fine, I guess I won't be visiting, then.

[sun_goddess_sacrifice]

Now, do not be stubborn. I would not mind setting eyes upon you as well.

[yatteyanyo]

...

I suppose I could indulge you, then.

[sun_goddess_sacrifice]

If that is how you wish to see things....

[yatteyanyo]

I'll be along shortly, regardless.

[sun_goddess_sacrifice]

I will be waiting.
