Jacky walks in to drop off some party favors, he sets down his bundle, and sees Striker with stake in hand, "Aye, so yer arr a year older and wiser!" He smiles and exits the pub. Blows Jacky a kiss goodby. "Thanks for the party favors, luv." ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

CrazyCholeBlack Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 Jane saunters into the pub looking a bit like Santa clause with a large yellow sack on her shoulder. She drops the bundle on the bar & looks around. “Did I hear somethin' ‘bout cheese?” She digs in the bag and produces a yellow, fake cheese party hat. “Unless o’ course tis a black tie event. In that case I’ll ‘ave to get the other sack.” "If part of the goods be plundered by a pirate the proprietor or shipmaster is not entitled to any contribution."

He places his bag next to the bar, then turns to help Ray bring in a few more barrels of ale, and rum.
William Brand Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 Happy All Hallows Eve! I brought a few things from the Tsunami. Frosted ghosts Brittle Merangue Bones Mixed drinks And of course, individual chocolate, peanut butter pyracy pub cakes...
Ransom Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 "Huzzah, William. I'll try one of those Black Widow drinks and a Pub cake!" Takes a sip of the drink and a quick bite of cake, then turns to Elvira. "I've got to change into my costume for the day. Promise not to "sample" anyone while I'm in the Lady's room. If you're nice, I'll fix you a Bloody Mary when I get back." I start to leave, then realize what I've just said. "I did NOT mean you could drink from the barmaid again!" As I walk toward the restroom, the plastic tombstone screams at me. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

Jacky Tar Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 "I second that William, fine treats and eats indeed! Me thinks this be the start of a new pub tradition." Turns to Ransom, "I'll watch Elvira, luv. She'll be sippin' no barmaids, today!"
Ransom Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 The Pub restroom is so small I feel something like a super hero in a phone booth. I quickly strip off my pirate garb and pull my costume from its box. I wrap the pale blue cloth around myself, pleating and tucking as I go. Then I add the pretty gold chain belt, and slip on the little gold leather sandles-I've painted my toenails pink just for this occation. I pull my hair up and twist it into a chignon, letting a few curls trail down the side. Lastly I place the crown of gilded laural leaves on my head. Looking in the fly-specked mirror, I smile. "Perfect." I open the door and return to the party. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

Clearing his throat, and addressing the goddess before him, "Miss ye didn't happen t' see a pirate lass about yer size in the restroom, did ye?"
Ransom Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 "Jacky Tar! Now who's being a cheese head!"

Jacky Tar Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 "Jacky Tar! Now who's being a cheese head!" I can clean up real purdy when I choose to! "That ye can, luv." Jacky looks at his shabby attire, and thinks I can dress better; so, he takes off his tricorn and puts on a cheesehead hat.
Ransom Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 "Come on, let's sample some of the treats at the bar. But don't get too close to the candles, or you'll set your cheesehead on fire." I look over to Striker. "Hey, Striker, that cheesehead hat looks kinda strange impaled on those devil horns of yours." ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

"Ransom, ye party is off t' a grand start. I see Elvira is searchin' out a spot to sleep til night fall. I'm off t' spruce up, but I think I'll keep the hat." Jacky steps back to look at her costume, and realizes it is no costume. "I'll be in and out t' check on ye and yer guests." Jack quickly kisses her cheek and grabs a cake, and is out the door.
Silkie McDonough Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 Silkie enters the pub wearing a long brown cape that covers her from head to ? Findin jus d'right costume at d'last minuet was was nil a simple mader! She slips off the hood showing hair of bluish white locks piled atop her head, bouncing tendrils of curls laying soft around her face and neck. Her skin looks as though all the pinkish pigment has been replaced with blue. So much so that Ransom does a double take wondering if Elvira has made it to Silkie before Silkie had made it to the party! Silkies lips are blood red and her eyes a surprising black! Large pearls grace her dainty ears and a string of pearls lay loosely around her neck. Untying the cape, with fingers that sport unusually long blood red nails, she slips it off her bare shoulders. The bodice of black ...errr, what is that fabric? satin? ...fits like a second skin plunging in the front and open in the back. What miracle of modern technology holds it all in place? Simply amazing! At her waist the skirt Billows out and tumbles down ending in ...tentacles! Eight tentacles. After handing her cloak to the nearest pirate she lifts her shawl from her arm and wraps herself in what appears to be an ...eel. A very large eel. I know! Tis a Disney character but I love d' villains! :) I actually do have this costume! Alas, I have no digital photographs. The tentacles are made of carpet padding and attached to a hoop skirt and look quite good floating over the floors. The eel ...well he is a bit less than life like and the miracle of modern technology that keeps the bodice in place? Lacing!
