Pyrates of the West Coast


Recommended Posts

(lying there in a soundless state of ebb and roll thinking on all of the little steps taken in me life to get to this place. This one address as it were, where I am found to have been so lucky to hang my scarf and Robes. Reasons beyond my immaginations are all working together in the finely honed diligence of many peoples efforts in that as I lie here so much is being done to prepare , no more like sculpt a work of art out of wood, iron and canvas. The Watch Dog! how lu8cky am I to be alive. I sit up and lower my chead in prayer, God bless this day, this crew and all the workings and goings on that bring us all together in one effort of dream and reality safely and where they both come together on the Watch Dog in your name, Amen. Eyes open I look up to see Tempest staring at the likes o me! Where are my robes?)

*Slide-step slide step* Here are your robes Monsingnor, * she make her way in side* I tried to give ithem to you last night but you needed your rest. . .here you are* she hands them over* They wer frayed in some of the areas. . . *blushes*

Yes, I am leaving the pub. I don't know when or if I will come back to this port. I will check in from time to time. Until then:

::Finally making it aboard ship, I asked the lad who sent the pinnace for me. The lad said Mr. Lasseter had told Mad_Jack to send it. Luckily for me, I had purloined some of the jailkeepers hardware. As I made my way aboard ship, I asked whereabouts I could find Mr. Lasseter's cabin and the boarding of Mad_Jack. One of the mates topside pointed me belowdecks. I found Mr. Lasseter's cabin and left outside a pair of Spanish pistolas that had been taken from the sleepeing guard. The parchment read:

"Mr. Lasseter-

Forever indebted to thee.

-PEW"

::Heading towards the bow I find Mad_Jack's belongings. I lay the Dusack knife wrapped in a swath of my breeches, also with a note:

"Good sir-

Thankee for the timely rescue.

Forever indebted to thee.

-PEW"

Appears ta all be in proper order... very well....

::He exits, locking the door behind him, and makes his way back to his quarters where he finds a bundle with a note attached::

Fere'er indebted?

Ah, Mr. PEW...

:: Jack hurries to the main deck, after uncharacteristically oversleeping. He gulps down a cup of too-hot coffee, and moves quickly to where the dinghy is stored. He has a couple of able seamen take the lines to lower the boat into the water ::

Aye, Mr. Lasseter! I'll have our Mr. Morgan among us within mintutes!

:: Jack gives the order, and the men lower him into the water, where he begins rowing vigorously to shore . In twenty minutes time, he's back alongside the ship with Morgan ::

Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?

:: The QM watches Mad_Jack pull to shore, have a short conversation with the lad on shore, who then climbs aboard the dingy, and is rowed back to the ship... As they come along side, Jack steadies the dingy as the new fellow starts the short climb up the side to the deck ::

Aye Lad, I be th' QuarterMaster.. ye may call me Mr. Lasseter...

Iffn' ye be wishin' ta sign articles, I'll 'ave ye wait 'ere whilst I see iffn' th' Cap'n might be free ta have ye sign...

:: Mad_Jack's head appears as he climbs the side of the ship::

Ah, I thank ye ag'in, Jack...

waking absolutely blinded by hungar I roll me feet off to the side and sits up when Armand here grabs me and mutters something French to me and then I hears something I does indeed recognize "No, No monsignorie, must lie and rest" he says, I says "not today today I get up!" and so I stand he is holding me right shoulder and mylower back helping me to straighten up and I decide maybe I should sit back down. He smiles at me in that he I'm sure was appreciating me decision. So I turns and looks him in the eye and says "Armand you speak good enough English to make our pretty much everything you hear right?" And he nodded yes. I says "I am with the need to eat," (then much louder) "ANYTHING" and he straightened up and stared at me. Adding "Anything even hard tack just something ok?" he nodded turned and left!

Lass God Blees ye I am so ready for a meal yet i cant eat as it makes funny things happen inside me and then I cramp up and even the father in heaven knows not to go against the direct orders of our surgeon indeed. Yet Armand will return shortly with a bowl of broth maybe a carrot and a potatoe (both stewed of course) and one piece of bread now what I would give for a rib steak right now! I am almost halluncinating of the hungers I am. But God bless ye child fer seein to the likes o me. Wake me afore the first dog watch tonight if I'm sleepin will ye? Grammercy

Aye Kendra ya said Morgan did ya? I asked him a month ago ta join us and he came down did he he's a fine sort has a way with words watch yer step he's always quick he is. Gotsta appreciate the quick fer me sister once said to me as she took the last helping of the greens one sunday sup. She said you know Diego thar be the quick and thar be the dead! I nay to ferget that sound investment of thought provocations! I should think that mayhaps now ye too might remembers it and works it into yer own lifes best ye can.. Grammercy (then as the lingering sound of the long "E" 'd "Y" in grammercy is still hanging on the lasting wind, in walks Armand with a tray amd on it is a bowl four half carrots (soft), three quarters of a spud chopped and (soft) in a clear broth of what smells like beef, a small glass of goats milk and a small (very small) piece of bread crust. Oh dear! My God does watch over me so! Bowing afore taking sustenance I give a prayer to those in greater need than I allowing that this be a very harsh and unforgiving world and I am but a piece of dust. "Thank you Armand" I said. He bowed as a gentleman always should and took a seat in his corner.

Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a knife in your back.
