Jacky Tar Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 "If that is your judgement, then it is well enough for me." she replies in low tone. Killingsworth hasn't made any further attempts to acquire a drink, nor has he left the pub. His mere presence seems to be unnerving Captain Sterling's companion. Jacky approachs him once more. "Ye are an unwelcome guest, and don't seem to have the good sense to leave." Two large fellows from the bar lift the foppish Killingsworth to his feet. A third searches his person. They find a pistol, a dagger, snuff-box and a well lined purse; they relieve the owner of his possesions. "Crawl back under the swine from which ye came!" Jacky walks the naive to door, which he seems unable to find on his own.
Tess St. Claire Posted August 31, 2006 Author Posted August 31, 2006 Lady St. Claire looks over at the two men, the flop and the pyrate meeting eye to eye as they stare each other down. Please, Reggie...Jacky. There is no need to raise such a fuss. I am sure that for this night we can act well in each other's company and not force our dislikes into open air. Tess looks over at the Captain and watch him chat away with Blue. "How odd?" Tess says looking at the 'fish out of water'. "Do you come here often Blue?
Blue Mermaid Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 "How odd?" Tess says looking at the 'fish out of water'. "Do you come here often Blue? As often as granted by King Neptune. Sterling scratching chin, wondering how to teach advance and retreat to someone with a tail, albeit a lovely tail at that..... My visits to the pub granted by King Neptune include my freedom to walk. While my visits must be followed by a return to the sea, I can assure you I have as much grace on land as I do in water.

Many of the members in this thread are from the thread ~ Port Royal, Jamaica, A Continuing Saga for Roleplayers. They are serious writers, un-like yers truly.

There is no need to raise such a fuss. I am sure that for this night we can act well in each other's company and not force our dislikes into open air. Jacky loosens his grip on Killingsworth's coat. Against his better judgement he lets him go. Another fop is saved at a lady's behest. "My apologies Lady St. Claire, Jacky returns to the bar."
Capt. Sterling Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Ray, your best for Master Tar! And thank ye Sir fer yer kind words!

Cheeky Actress Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 "I am here to enjoy my father's money...and spend time investing in the Theater." She looks over at Mistress McKinney. "If there is anything here to invest in." Lilly narrows her eyes at Lady St. Claire for just a moment. Then turns and whispers to Captain Sterling. "I think I've just been insulted." Then turns back to the Lady and smiles. "I see that you know our good Captain, Lady. Pray, do you also know of his father, Lord Sterling?" Member of "The Forsaken"

But I must speak for those who are, "Thank you" Jacky Tar! You're compliments to those who are on Port Royal thank you from the bottom of our hearts. She smiles wickedly. "Try your hand...you are welcome to indulge yourself as often as you wish!"
Tess St. Claire Posted August 31, 2006 Author Posted August 31, 2006 "I see that you know our good Captain, Lady. Pray, do you also know of his father, Lord Sterling?" Lady St. Claire looks over at the good Captain. "Yes, but 'twas years ago when I was still very young. It so happens that the Captain's father fancied my mother. Lord Sterling would always make an effort to pine over her at court when she was there. Which, in any case, never seemed to raise any eyebrows by my father. Such things were...permitted then.

"Good evening to you both." He turns has looks at Jacky Tar. "For the sake of the Ladies, I shall ignor your pale attempt of an insult and go on with the business at hand. " Again, he pulls a coin from his pocket and places it upon the bar. Captain Striker has been sitting in shaddows with his back against the wall , so far unnoticed by the large crowd of people in the pub . Striker stands up and walks up behind Reginald Killingsworth . "As you were told .... you and your gold are not welcome here " Reginald Killingsworth feels a flintlock being pushed to his back , and nods to Sterling always surrounded by shadows , always in the shadow. A spectre he be !

"What else have you not told me?!" Sterling looks at the actress. "Is it my place to tell thee everything Lady? My father's affairs are just that.... his."

Cheeky Actress Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Lilly can only give the Captain a sorrowful look. "What a life you must have had as a child." She takes his hand and nuzzles next to him with hug. "I can only hope that our son never feels such pain." With that she holds him tighter. Member of "The Forsaken"
Ransom Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 The cross-threading is beginning to give Ransom a headach. She looks at Killingsworth, wondering how he can hop from comatose to drinking and back again. And Mistress McKinney, rather than breaking furniture in boredom, is snuggling next to Sterling—an interesting situation with Aurora snuggling on his other side. **Gives a shrug**Ah well, there is no accounting for the strange actions of the nobility. **Glances over at Jacky. "You've paid our lot a fine compliment, sir. Let me buy you a drink. That is, if the good Lady St. Claire doesn't mind." Gives Jacky a pat on the shoulder, friendly like.
