~stops in her tracks.~

Blast it all. Forgive me sir william make that 9 throwing daggers. I forgot this one.

~turns around and pulls out a very small dagger from her cleavedge, and hands it over.~

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.

Well, well...What is it we have here, Mister Daggez...*Glancing over the small round rim of spectacles* It would seem that you are quite well prepared....*Wipes the minute sheen of humidity induced sweat from brow and stands. Thinking outloud...*I must speak to the Captain...The circulation of air in this ward is lacking and will not do for any contagious maladies...

Armand!...Ah, there you are. *Smiles warmly as the youth appears* Be a good lad and place the personal affects of our guest in the extra travel chest under lock and key...Please inform the Galley that I have desire for a strong pot of coffee in which to toast the beginning of this day, as well. Merci beaucoup.

*Looking to the restless sleeping form of DaggezEber and removing spectacles* You could not be in better hands, sir...Though it seems to me that you have played the odds in the past...Judging from that small piece of paperment in you possession. *Small knowing smile*

Armand, I am going to the topside. Please deliver the coffee there and let me know if our guest should raise to full wakefullness, if you will.

*Obtaining a volume of text from a nearby trunk, glances one last time to the inert form then leaves to gain the upper deck.*

No apologies necessary, Master Badger. I expect to serve with officers of absolute requirements. Ships who relax there duties, relax their gaurd, and this makes my work more difficult.

So, be gregarious about your inspections.

*Stepping onto the main deck with a quick survey of its parameter, gives a small stretch and yawn; blinking at the brightness encountered*

Good morning, gentleman. I see we have all made it through the night in good order.

It appears I shall not be spendin me evenings off the ship much any more. Good men (turns and aknowledges ships surgeon on deck). Thar be naught a reason why as I can see that addressing many of these tasks and duties should not be addressed with a bit of concern for each others pride. And should not be addressed unless ones own duties and tasks finds one in the gally done and accomplish. Going in, this is in need of being said as well. We are mustering a crew, everyone of us the officers are addressed, we are the cruxt of this ships strength and power but a ship with only officers will soon find blame on all parts where the work be needin done. I! (clears throat) no, We! yes, We! All need to now be a part of this legacy and deliver our souls into finding crew to swab the deck, mend the sails weigh the anchor, polish the balls and work the ropes (so to speak). I employ us all now in that we all must come about. And let us all usher into this day and retrieve a crewman. One which too shares a love of our free sea, one with a skill for banter as well. But he must know how to perspire as anything less than 120% will not get this ship afloat. Take leave then, go amongst our friends and aquaintences and get us a crew! (turning to ships surgeon) is there any more coffee about?

Why yes, Sir. I have an order into the Galley as we speak. My steward shall be delivering it directly. I do believe you will find its flavor enticing for it is from my private stores...I will tell you that I have no fears of getting my hands dirty and am well knowledged in the working of rigging and its demands. As long as my hands are not placed in risk...for that would be rather to a disadvantage.

*Notes Steward's presence with pot and one cup*

Merci, Armand...Encore une tasse, s'il vous plait. Merci beaucoup...

*Refocusing on Diego*

Another cup is on its way. Armand shall bring it directly.

You are most welcome, Sir. If you will excuse me...I shall move to an area that is of convienence and out of the way.

Master Diego.

(tips hat)

Good morning, sir. I'm happy to report that the stowed arms aboard the Watch Dog are considerable. I do believe, should occasion permit, that every man and woman aboard will be armed with at least two pistols each if we engage or are engaged by an enemy force. Every able seaman has a knife and almost all have a hanger of sufficient length.

There are a few members of the crew who have not reported their arms for the log and for stowing, but I chalk this up to the other pressing duties of the day.

Let there be a few aquaintances you too might wish to approach for these positions are of the mandate to this point. Too sir have them P/M me as I would like to interview the potentials afore their posts, sir!

<< Good Lord! One blink, and ye've missed a day on this ship! >>

:: gives Kendra a suspicious, quizzical look, then smiles ::

My sincere apologies, m'lady. I had no call to suspect you of thievery, even though ye be among pyrates. And I had no idea my puzzlement showed on me face as much as it obviously did.

:: cocks his head to the side ::

A former woman of the Cloth, eh? Well, love, you'd not be the first to become dissatisfied with the Church. Happens every day, I'm told... Well, then, I should be off to me station and see what's what. Until later? :)

:: emerges on deck to the smell of coffee ::

Ahh, breakfast!

It'll be a pleasure serving with ye, I'm sure.
