3rd Order ♚ Response to the Navy Shenanigans ♚ [Voice][Action possible for crew members!]
The Navy was never that fond of us to begin with... it's only now that they decide to take any decisive action.
[A light huff passed his lips, it doesn't sound as if the young Earl is too concerned by all this]
I wouldn't put much stock into this display, if the past is any indication of their level of competency.
[Besides, Ciel had a little trick up his sleeve should his vessel run too close to their waters]
It would be in our best interests to at least keep aware of where the Navy is frequenting. So I would suggest that if anyone runs into their ships that they please inform the rest of us so we can all avoid them as best as possible. It's a vast ocean, and they can't very well patrol every location.
[Action]
[Ciel had been keeping holed up in his cabin for a spell, pouring over all the charts at his disposal looking for the best direction to steer in. Although he'd learned what he could from the dockworkers on Ilsa Empieza, and the tomes he'd purchased he was still an inexperienced seaman. If he could only find a true captain willing to take the reigns he could dedicate more of his time to other endeavors.
Seated at his desk, he was in an unsightly state. The buttons on his jacket were fastened to the wrong holes, his socks were uneven, and his hair was a little more messy than usual. This having to dress himself thing was another hassle... thankfully the journals couldn't project that...]
[Standing up.. he tried once more to tidy up before walking out on deck. One there was for sure... they needed more distance between them and that island]
[ooc: ALSO.. I made a plotting community for us over HERE. I'll be making an ooc post later about it :3]

[He sincerely wondered how that could be true, when more knowledge of seafaring would greatly benefit him just at this moment]
... You mean, because we are more likely to choose less logical solutions to evade their efforts and therefore we won't be where they're expecting us to appear?

[An attempt at levity?]
I intend to rule that out as an option. Sinking our vessel, would ultimately lead to more complications then it would solve.
[There would also be no way to be certain that any of the rescued crewmembers would A. have their journals with them, or B. manage to survive long enough without food or water in order to be picked up by a rescue team. Being stranded in a lifeboat could be an exceptionally nasty, slow, and agonizing way to die.]
Re: Voice

It would have made about as much sense as everything else you've said up to this point.
[He'd been looking for something a bit more constructive than the responses he was receiving]
Yes, that is a difficult task... I'm sure of it.
