Capt. Sterling Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 And Lady B... Ye wish me and mine to watch over and defend the fair...**choke** citizens of this town? Surely ye jest? As there are far better things my crewe must attend to whilst supposedly "at home on land"... such as plowing and sowing seed...and aye..I refer not to our farms but to much finer furrows... Still an arrangement could possibly be made, depending, of course, on the rate of employ with which we are to be paid to give up our well spent time... it would have to be treble the current rate as we feel there is all ready too much authority in said town...and we chafe under such restrictions...especially the authority of none but a bloody politician...

LadyBrower Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Hm... I think I would own a boarding house or something like it (probably not the right term). Maybe something like this: And I would do everything I do now, cook, bake and sew for everyone. lol. I'd be Lady Brower's handyman, gardener, watchman and boat landing keeper as well as the official pumpkin carver for her extraordinary halloween blaze celebration. I could be found in the coach house by the front gate. Jas. Hook Well, I would be a most lucky and grateful mistress! How did you know about my "famous" Halloween events? Oh, and I would build you a lovely little cottage behind the great house, so you could have a place of your own for your family should you like. I am a kind lady to those loyal to me. :-) Cook and Seamstress to the Half Moon Marauders Lady Brower's Treasures, Clothing and other treasures Hell Hath No Fury like the Wrath of a Woman...

Ransom Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Ummm, I think I would fit in more closely with the smugglers, or nautical acquisition folks, rather than the grand title of Captain. And I don't own a plantation, remember, I hang out at your place! ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold... You can do everything right, strictly according to procedure, on the ocean, and it'll still kill you.

Capt.

I think we can persuade Jim, since he's out "Governor". Perhaps I can offer a bribe. In return for yo'r "assistance" to keep the Navies away from our waters? Hmmm? Maybe an assurance that young, sprighly Sarah be kept out of harms way when ye be at sea. Fair trade perhaps? :) And the promise of not performin' the hempen jig? Tis a fine list there, Pew. :::looks at the list again::: Hmm... fur trades, eh? I think I be in need of some fur. Still in need of those illegal fabrics. Got some sugar to export to make into rum. Oh, what a fine community we have here. :) Hmmm interesting...rec'd this but do not see it in the postings here...but if my daughter is in harm's way whilst I am out to sea...seems to me to be the perfect time to move... back to Virginia then...adieu...
