Aurore Devareaux Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Glancing towards Sterling at his words, " Non...Pour quoi?" As Killingsworth draws near with sweeping bow and invitation of hearthside placement, she eyes him wary. "Merci, non merci monsieur. Your offer is kind, but do you not think that it would be cavorting with the enemy?"

Capt. Sterling Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 "Aye Master Tar, but beware the Serpant that strikes yer heel as ye crush its head," Sterling says. "I'd take his head with my cutlass, and thar be no need to soil my boot." Pauses, and sips the glass of port. "The lads defanged him earlier. Had Miss St. Claire not request we leave him, we'd taken his serpent's tongue as well." Sterling crooks his finger toward Jacky....then places a gold coin between them both. "A wager lad? Birds of a feather they be...the lady and the fop." "I being shot through the left cheek, the bullet striking away great part of my upper jaw, and several teeth which dropt down the deck where I fell... I was forced to write what I would say to prevent the loss of blood, and because of the pain I suffered by speaking."~ Woodes Rogers Crewe of the Archangel http://jcsterlingcptarchang.wix.com/creweofthearchangel# http://creweofthearchangel.wordpress.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ransom Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 Come, Mr. Killingsworth, I let you buy me a drink. Let all animosities be set aside for a time. For a time, you mind! **Lifts a glass** To the dance macabre, eh?" and gives him a wink. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

Reginald Killingsworth Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 "Damn!" Killingsworth mubbles under his breath. He turns towards Ransom. "They call you Ransom, do they not?" He says with a smile. "You are..." Looking at her again. "An interesting creature. What casts you here?" And with that, he throws a gold coin upon the bar again. "What shall it be, Ransom? Ale, port? Or Beer?" Killingsworth watches the French Dove take her place next to Captain Sterling, Lady St. Claire and Mistress McKinney. "Damn him." Killingsworth says looking at the group. "Looks like the Captain is the biggest cock here in the hen house, don't you agree?"

But she has a pull on me also, mayhaps because we receive so few ladies here." Jacky sees the furtive glances from Aurore. "Aurore, ye have a gravity and attraction, also; but, ye are bespoken."

Tess St. Claire Posted September 1, 2006 Author Share Posted September 1, 2006 Lady St. Claire smooths a finger over her full pink mouth. "My word Johnny. You still have issues with women, don't you?" She takes a sip of her port. "Never the less...you always seem to hurt those you love. It's a family curse you know. Poor Lilly sits over there alone as if she doesn't even exit to you any more. " Tess looks up at Aurore and smiles. "Oh, I'm sure his words are sincere, my Pet...for now." With that she opens her fan a flutters it quickly in front of her eyes. "Men are beast, my dear. Learn early in life and you will not be disappointed."

Jacky Tar Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 "Damn him." Killingsworth says looking at the group. "Looks like the Captain is the biggest cock here in the hen house, don't you agree?" "Still dancin'. May I cut in?" Jacky knocks Killingsworth into a chair, at a table where a bunch of old toothless hags are having their morning repast. Jacky addresses Ransom, "A suitable hen house for his cockiness, wouldn't ye say?" And in hushed tones, "Ye need to be more selective about the company ye keep." Jacky walks Ransom back to her seat and thanks her for the dance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insults is all I ever hear from your lips, sir! I made the mistake of telling you I had a boyish figure. I did not say I was boyish. I did NOT say I was unattractive." I return to Killingsworth, pull the man to his feet, and walk with him to the bar. "I'll have a glass of French bubbly with a shot of Tattoo." I give Jacky one last fiery look. "AND, I'll chose my own dancing partners, thank you very much. There is more than one reason to dance with a gent, and flirtation, in this case, in NOT the agenda! One more snide remark about my forecastle, and I'll turn you into a seive! Or a Eunich. Or both!!!" ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

"I never said ye was unattractive, quite t' the contrary I find ye very attractive. Check yer sources I never said anything about yer forecastle, bow, or stern." Jacky moves closer, and watches her sword hand. "If'n ye ask, ye'll find I've never danced wit' anyone else at the pub either! And here's another first, that won't bloody likely happen again, either..." Jacky pulls her away from the fop, and kisses her passionately without pretense.

It would have been a bit more pasionate if I had not, in the moment before, taken a sip of the French bubbly. The fizz from mouth to mouth had us both laughing. I wiped my chin then held out the kerchief to Jacky. "Here, sir. I've heard tell of a French Kiss, but I doubt this is what they meant." With a grin, Jacky takes the offered kerchief. "Too bad you've already told the whole Pub you won't repeat the gesture." I give him a teasing wink. "T'were it not for the fizz, it was feeling pretty nice. And I admit, I'm a wee bit prickly about the boyish thing—what with always being mistaken for a "lad", as if I were some milk-sopped child." I cock an Irish blue eye. "I be woman enough for any man, but I do the chosing, not the other way around. So, I take back my insults to your person. Pax? "Ray, another round please." I direct my most charming smile at Jacky.
