Sea of Acheron? Sign him up for THAT.

[a_pirate_meant_to_be]

The sea! Tropical breezes! Fierce pirates raping and pillaging their ways across the ocean waves! I... I'm so HAPPY!

All right! Time to get myself back on my feet. If I'm gonna be stuck here, it's about time I started acting like a REAL PIRATE again! Now I need a ship and some crewmates...

[raping and pillaging]

...Please tell me you don't really mean pillaging and...that...other thing.

[big-whoop.livejournal.com]

Well, maybe some of the pillaging, but the raping thing not so much, 'cause we're PG-rated, you know.

[youkai-hunting.livejournal.com]

[big-whoop.livejournal.com]

*sigh* There will be no raping done on the voyages of Guybrush Threepwood, Mighty Pirate (tm). Satisfied?

[youkai-hunting.livejournal.com]

I am.

[slapwithpanache.livejournal.com]

How horribly offensive. But I suppose if you can't even manage to win at a children's card game, the chance of you actually pillaging anything is fairly small.

[big-whoop.livejournal.com]

Hey hey hey, I'll have you know that being a successful pirate and playing a card game are two completely different skill sets!

[slapwithpanache.livejournal.com]

Successful pirates scream and run at the sight of holographic monsters, do they?

[big-whoop.livejournal.com]

I did NOT scream and run!

...I might have YELPED a bit, but no screaming and running!

[slapwithpanache.livejournal.com]

Ohoho! Of course there wasn't ~

Now, then. I have absolutely no interest in privateering, but I believe I shall join you on this venture, regardless. Safety in numbers -- and I expect that exploration is much more interesting than simply staying here.

[big-whoop.livejournal.com]

*sigh* Fine. If nothing else, pirates are a superstitious bunch. Maybe you can scare off some of the jerks.

geez i keep failing horribly at this 1/2

[slapwithpanache.livejournal.com]

2/2

[slapwithpanache.livejournal.com]

. . . Something like that?

And just to be clear, I wasn't asking for permission.

[big-whoop.livejournal.com]

GYAAH! Er, I mean, yeah, exactly like that. *cough*

Well, I suppose it's better than having to bribe people to come along on stuff like this.

[solidprinny.livejournal.com]

...Raping?

[big-whoop.livejournal.com]

Oh come on, come on, it's just a generic pirate description! I'm not actually gonna do stuff like that, I'm married! Geez!

[solidprinny.livejournal.com]

This IS the netherworld, the morality here isn't exactly like Earth's.

[big-whoop.livejournal.com]

Yeah, well, even I've got limits. Besides, I'm pretty sure Elaine would knock me to next Sunday if I even thought of doing something like that.

[solidprinny.livejournal.com]

Who's Elaine?

[big-whoop.livejournal.com]

My wife. ...*sigh* Who's probably wondering what's keeping me right now. Darn it. I'm real happy about this sea thing, but I'd really rather go home so I can finish getting rid of LeChuck again and be with her. Funny how that works.

[solidprinny.livejournal.com]

[Gives Guybrush a bit of a look. Wife? him?]

Can't have everything we want, but the opening of these portals makes it less likely they can watch up closely.

[big-whoop.livejournal.com]

A smoking HOT wife, and if Snake were to look, he's actually got the wedding ring to prove it. Whoa ho.

Heeey, that's right! There's GOTTA be something out there that can get us out of this joint. Maybe something at the sea! Wow, who'd have thunk privateering could come in useful?

[solidprinny.livejournal.com]

[He notes the ring. That's actually a good-sized diamond.]

It's possible, but let's just keep an eye out for anything else.

[he fishes out a cigarette and goes to light up]

[big-whoop.livejournal.com]

Well, keeping an eye out for nifty stuff -- sometimes in other peoples' possessions -- is half the point of being a pirate anyway. SO.

[solidprinny.livejournal.com]

[He exhales]

Let me see whatever you snagged, it may prove useful.

[big-whoop.livejournal.com]

Right. ...but I get to keep the cool stuff.

[pet-moonrabbit.livejournal.com]

Raping?!

[big-whoop.livejournal.com]

Man, everybody's fixated on that one word. Fine. "LOOTING and pillaging." You all happy?

[pet-moonrabbit.livejournal.com]

... I guess that's a little better, but...

... are you actually going to pillage villages?

...

Now that I think about it, are there even any villages to pillage?

[big-whoop.livejournal.com]

Well, it's more the general principle of the thing. Like a sort of general guideline, you know? Most of the pirates I know spend most of their time getting drunk and passing out anyway.

[pet-moonrabbit.livejournal.com]

Oh... I guess that's okay, then...

... so do you even know where to get a boat?

[big-whoop.livejournal.com]

Well, that'd be step one, of course. I figure there's probably a few pirate towns, and hopefully someone who isn't a frantically flailing guy in plaid and a sombrero who has boats.

[pet-moonrabbit.livejournal.com]

A-ah... well, good luck.

[big-whoop.livejournal.com]

I don't NEED luck. I'm a Mighty Pirate (tm), after all.

...but thanks anyway.
