[The handwriting on the journal page is a little messy and sharp, but still readable. It's also done entirely in orange marker.]
Let me see if I got this shit straight here. We're brought here by some asshole and we're stuck until we can find theShikon Jewel [There's a scribble line through the words, but it's still readable.] Piedra Roja gem, which has been broken into shards across the Seven Seas.
Am I the only one who finds this all annoyingly cliche? This is the part where someone would bitch and moan about having better things to be doing back home, but complaining isn't going to be getting anyone anywhere.
So here's the deal. I'm getting my own ship and setting sail on this bitch, anyone around port up to joining me? Yes, that would make me the Captain and that's non-negotiable. I don't care how much or how little experience you have so long as you want to find this gem as much as I do. What we don't know we can easily learn, so the only problem will be if you're a fucking douchebag who doesn't know how to take sensible orders. I know there's going to be some trust issues here, but the more people go off on their own the less likely it'll be to gather as many shards as possible. It's not like we have much of a fucking say in the matter, so anyone up for it?
And for those of you who've been here longer, any information on any progress that's been made would be appreciated.

Quite authoritative, aren't we?
As for progress, it seems that one shard has been found. I'm not quite clear on the details of that. There was quite the commotion not long ago, which has distracted us wondrously.
no subject
What kind of commotion was it?
no subject
Well, there were several commotions. Dense fog, everlasting night, and ghosts that bring a plague of curses. There may have been more, of course.
no subject
Sounds like a hell of a time. So has that shit all cleared up by now? And asking on the off chance you might have a guess, do you have any idea what direction most ships have been heading once they leave Isla Empieza?
no subject
The fog has lifted, yet I do not know about the curse. It may still be lingering about.
Most crews head of in any direction they see fit, so no, I haven't the foggiest.
no subject
What exactly was the curse?
I only asked about the other ships because it would be preferable to head in a less traveled direction to cover more ground, but I'll just go with my instincts on that one.
no subject
Some were turned into rather unsavory beings. Some died. Some were unaffected.
You should probably go where the Navy is not.

[VOICE because she's no unicorn and can't make a quill move. SCREW WRITING!]
Oh, another new...hewman? Pony? Dragon?! Anyways! AHOY THERE! I'm sorry you're here! You can't go home, though!
Did anypony tell you about Mister Scurvy Dog yet? He has a whole BUNCHA info usually!
voice
His voice is totally level and chill when he responds, he's a master at keeping himself composed even in the face of a fucking pony talking to him.]
Human. And yeah, the guy left a welcome message in my journal to give me a heads up on this place.
You don't have to be sorry, I'm good with making a situation work in my favor no matter the odds against me.
voice
Awww, more humans. Ah well.]
He can be pretty cranky, especially about questions! Well, about a lot of things, really!
Oh good! Then do you wanna order an eyepatch?! I can put a design on it!
voice
Sure, I'll order two of them. They can be- Ain't happenin'.
[Another voice cuts him off, this one deeper with a mechanical tinge to him. Dirk goes quiet for half a second as he has a brief staring contest with Sawtooth before shrugging.]
Alright, scratch that. Make it one eyepatch, red if you can.
[Squarewave will appreciate it.]
voice
[Dashie is cool, so she can understand!]
Hmm? What's that noise?
voice
One of my robots who's inclined not to be down with the idea of wearing an eye patch for ironic purposes.

What's a row bot?

it sounds like you dont trust we shitty bunch of dirty pirates
written;
I wouldn't trust anyone here if they were a shitty bunch of disney fairy princesses promising to make all my dreams come true. That shit's gotta be earned.
written;
id trust the dude jamming a knife in my ribs more than some dame who sings at animals
written;
I wouldn't go that far, Jasmine and Mulan are pretty legit. It's those other bitches you gotta watch out for, but you can't go and dis the whole lot of them just cause a few are suspicious as fuck with their siren song ways. That's like holding a grudge and saying fuck all aliens just cause one happens to be a genocidal megalomaniac.
written;
not crazy or constantly covered in layers of dander
though i guess mulan checks out
but yeah i get you
i mean first person experience helps anyway
not that id say it that way
more like aliens arent always that shitty
some can be cool but as a rule of thumb theyre often pretty shitty
written;
And to be quite frank, I wouldn't say first person experience always helps. Between an annoying as fuck juggalo that has to be bribed with soda to stay the fuck away and mind his own business and a guy with a kinky obsessive fetish for sweet and tender shit like it's the filthiest porn he's ever jerked it to I'd say my first personal experiences with aliens have been questionable at best. However, there have been a few occasions with others less on the unhinged side that give them as a whole a benefit of the doubt. I can say with absolute certainty that I know of at least one alien who does not under any circumstances qualify as "shitty" by any stretch of the word. The jury's still out on the verdict for the rest of them.

makes sense anyway
[For a moment, Dave finds himself in an all too familiar spot. Someone this verbose with this much a penchant for rambling--]
as for shitty soda loving clowns you could call this a vacation for me
gettin away from the whole paint slathered clown monster situation is a bonus
not dealing with lady issues on top of things works
i mean it aint exactly the biggest deal but sometimes you need a break from grody horned clowns
this is a sweet vacation though
in comparison to living like a brand new factory sealed horn getting passed around on psycho clown island

I can't tell you much about the jewel but I can tell you to be careful if you see a ghost ship. Not too long ago some ghost pirates went around [Pauses his writing.] touching people...[Another pause, this time a little longer.]...and the people touched were either turned into some creature or killed.
[Written a little smaller at the bottom.]
Actually I think I was the only one killed.
no subject
You got killed and came back?
no subject
I can't remember anything in between those things though.
no subject
Despite the oddity of that, that not only gives the solid fact that death isn't permanent here, but also alludes to Davy Jones being more than just a figure of speech in this place.
Thanks for telling me, that's some pretty fucking important information to keep in mind.
