Tempest Fitzgerald Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 *Tips the goblet in his direction* Then it sounds to me that the gentleman in question did not see the potential...Or perhaps he was a bore and there for offered no inspiration to your prowess. *Muses over the empty goblet before refilling* I much appreciate your concern in regard to my lack of Cutlass skill. I should look forward to the honing of such ability... *Pauses and focuses on him* But do keep in mind, it is rather hard for me to use either pistol or blade when up to my elbows in wounded... *Glances in the direction of the bow where her Steward watches the goings on down the quay* ...And that is part of Armand's function and station. To ensure that there are no problems in sticky situations. *She smiles warmly as her focus returns to him* I agree. We should relish this moment of calm before there is no peace of mind to be had. ...Or lay these bones in an unworthy urn, Tombless, with no rememberance over them: Either our history shall with full mouth Speak freely of our acts, or else our grave, Like a Turkish mute, shall have a toungueless mouth, Not worshipped with a waxen epitaph...

Jonathan Hawks Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Jonathan Hawks finished his surveying and meaqsurements of the repairs that needed to be made to the metalwork of the cove fort. he then began supervising the men as to where and how he wanted his forge set and before long it was ready to be fired up. That be a right good job men, I says. Now, I needs me more of the ore and more of the raw metal that be back in the ships storage. You there... Hawks points to one of the men. Take a few o these e're men back ta the ship and go to the hold fer some o that raw steel I be needen. Take this cart and bring it back in it. And, let Mr Lasseter know I be firin this thing up and startin in on the hinges and straps. By the tyme ya gets back, it should be good and hot ta start me task. I'fn he wants ta see me, tell em I be there as soon as I can. This stuff takes time. The men leave with the cart for the ship as Jonathan fires up the forge, squeezing the bellows, and begins getting the fire red hot. Shoots anything that moves!!

CaptainSwan Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 ~Swan saunters above to the decks. She is wearing black breeches white blouse and red vest. She takes a look around the decks seemingly looking for specific crew mates. She nods greetings to her fellow crew then goes and sits on the railing sipping her morning coffee.~ Wherever we want to go, we go. That's what a ship is; It's not just a keel and hull and a deck and sails. That's what a ship needs. But what a ship is really is freedom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
